Turkey Caps Post-Recession Comeback With Growth Matching China’s

Image
(Bloomberg) -- Turkey’s economy completed its turnaround after a recession thanks to a mix of stimulus policies that combined interest-rate cuts and a spending splurge.Gross domestic product rose faster than the highest forecast by economists last quarter as it grew 6% from a year earlier, up from 0.9% in the previous three months. The median of 19 estimates in a Bloomberg survey was for 5%. It grew a seasonally and working day-adjusted 1.9% compared with the third quarter, according to data released on Friday.The annual acceleration matched the pace of expansion in China and fell just short of growth in the Philippines.Although Turkey succeeded in quickly moving past its first technical recession in a decade after a currency crash in 2018, it now risks sacrificing economic stability down the road.

It’s not for a lack of trying – I make too much to qualify for Medicaid, but not enough to buy a private health insurance plan on the Affordable Care Act exchanges. Since I can’t afford to see a doctor, my healthcare strategy as a 32-year-old uninsured American has been simply to sleep eight hours, eat vegetables, and get daily exercise. But now that there are confirmed coronavirus cases in the United States, the deadly virus could spread rapidly, thanks to others like me who have no feasible way to get the care we need if we start exhibiting symptoms.According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, there are confirmed coronavirus cases in at least 50 countries on six continents, and more than 2,800 patients have died from the virus. This certainly qualifies as a pandemic under the World Health Orga...
