Consumption around the EM Will football boost the economy?

Status: 11.06.2021 09:55 a.m.

Normally, major sporting events create a special boom in the economy. At the EM this year it will be a little different. From Notker Blechner, tagesschau.de Actually, the “Euro 2020” should stimulate Europe’s economy, especially tourism. For the first time, the European Football Championship will take place in several countries – so the organizers originally hoped that thousands of fans would travel across Europe, go out to eat, shop and stay in hotels. But because of the corona pandemic, this calculation no longer works. Most cities will have a limited number of viewers. Many fans refrain from traveling and prefer to stay at home in front of the television at home.

Only limited economic stimulus

The direct economic effects on the host countries of the EM are likely to be limited. The travel industry, gastronomy and hotel business are not expecting a large boost from foreign guests. Even in the only German European Championship host city Munich, the expectations are not too high. Especially since there was no special boom for the construction industry in the run-up to the tournament – unlike at previous events. Most of the stadiums have not been specially modernized for the European Championship, as is usually the case with major sporting events. The infrastructure in the host cities was also not extensively renovated. “Since the games are being played all over Europe, there was no need to invest heavily,” explains Gert Wagner from the German Institute for Economic Research (DIW) tagesschau.de .

No million investments in infrastructure and stadiums

It was different at the previous European Championships: For the Euro 2012 in Poland and Ukraine. Ukraine invested eleven percent of their gross domestic product and Poland seven percent in the expansion of the stadiums and infrastructure, as the Berenberg Bank has calculated. However, the hoped-for economic boom did not materialize afterwards – at least in Ukraine. The 2016 European Championships in France were more successful: hosting the tournament in their own country cost a good 200 million euros in public expenditure. This contrasted with 1.2 billion euros in revenue. According to an estimate by the European football association UEFA, half of these came from foreign visitors. Not included in the balance sheet, however, are the costs of 1.6 billion euros for the construction and modernization of the French stadiums. This time, the EM should bring the greatest impetus to domestic consumption. Many Germans are expected to spend more money on new televisions, beer, chips, grilled food and maybe a few fan items in June and July in order to watch the European Championship games in their own four walls or in the garden at home. “Basically, consumer goods companies that do a lot of advertising benefit, sporting goods outfitters, food manufacturers and of course beer brands that do particularly well when the weather is good. When there is a barbecue, more beer is drunk,” says capital market strategist Oliver Roth from banking house Oddo Seydler.

More business with TV sets?

According to a survey by the trade association HDE, 41 percent of electronics retailers expect higher sales. Because experience from past major sports events shows that “before and after the start of the tournament, particularly large TV sets are purchased”, according to the market watchers from Nuremberg-based GfK. Electronics retail chains such as MediaMarkt Saturn are already feeling “an increasing interest in large-format TV sets”. After the end of the corona lockdown, the Germans’ desire to consume is likely to reawaken anyway. During the pandemic, many German citizens had no way of spending their money on travel or expensive restaurant and concert visits.

Brewers increase their capacities

Other industries also believe in an EM effect. Every third grocer is hoping for more income from the European Championship, according to the HDE survey. The brewers in particular have increased their capacities and are hoping for good summer business. However, Corona continues to get in their way. Because public viewings, where the beer flows freely, will probably only take place on a small scale. So far, “our business has only been running with slowed-down foam,” explains Holger Eichele, General Manager of the German Brewers’ Association. The sporting goods manufacturers are traditionally considered to be the greatest beneficiaries of a European Football Championship. Adidas, Nike, Puma & Co have been preparing for months with extensive marketing and advertising campaigns for the sporting event of the year. The further the national team they have equipped goes, the better business with the jerseys is. Adidas and Nike deliver a duel here. The brand with the three stripes has three favorites for the title: Spain, Belgium and Germany. Nike can score with world champion and title contender France as well as with secret favorite England. Adidas also provides the official match ball, the Uniforia.

It depends on the cut

How big the consumption effect is in different countries ultimately depends on how well your own team performs. Should the kickers of the outgoing national coach Jogi Low manage a new edition of the “summer fairy tale” from 2006 or 2014, the consumer mood in Germany is likely to jump even stronger. In the betting offices, however, the Löw team is only considered an outsider this time. In the past, winning a World Cup or European Championship title not only boosted consumption, but also infected the stock markets. The stock market of the respective European or world champions usually developed better than the MSCI World Index after the tournaments. DIW economist Wagner, however, considers the psychological impulse to be the most important: “We will get a demonstration that we have the pandemic largely under control in Europe. That will be an important signal.”

Climate change is one of the main causes of extinctions worldwide. 5 mass extinctions Dinosaurs became extinct in the Jurassic, more than 200 million years ago. * Ordovician-Silurian Extinction: About 440 million years ago The first mass extinction on Earth occurred at a time when organisms such as corals and shellfish filled the world’s shallow waters but had yet to venture to land. Life itself has begun to spread and diversify, first appearing around 3.7 billion years ago. But about 440 million years ago, a climate change caused sea temperatures to shift, and much of the life in the ocean died out. At the end of the Ordovician, mass glaciations covered the southern supercontinent, Gondwana. According to a study published in the journal Oceanology, glaciation on this scale has stripped away high proportions of the world’s water and dramatically lowered global sea levels, depriving the world of vital habitats. species, destroying the food chain and reducing fertility, according to a study published in the journal Oceanology. However, not all scientists agree with this. According to National Geographic, other theories suggest that the toxic metal may have dissolved into seawater during periods of oxygen depletion, wiping out marine life. Other scientists suggest that a gamma-ray burst from a supernova ripped through a giant hole in the ozone layer, allowing deadly ultraviolet radiation to kill life below. According to APS News, there is a Another theory is that volcanoes are the cause. * Late Devonian Extinction: Over 365 million years ago The Devonian period witnessed the rise and fall of many prehistoric marine species. Although by this time animals had already begun to evolve on land, most of life was swimming through the oceans. Until vascular plants, such as trees and flowers, have the potential to cause a second mass extinction. According to the BBC, as plants develop roots, they inadvertently transform the land they inhabit, turning rocks and rubble into soil. This nutrient-rich soil then runs into the world’s oceans, causing algae to bloom on a massive scale. These blooms essentially created giant “dead zones,” areas where algae take oxygen from the water, suffocating marine life and wreaking havoc on the marine food chain. Species that could not adapt to reduced oxygen levels and lack of food died. However, this theory is still being debated, and some scientists believe that volcanic eruptions are responsible for the drop in oxygen levels in the ocean, according to a study in the journal Geology. A species of sea monster that has been wiped out from the world’s oceans is the 10 m long armored fish called Dunkleosteus . * Permian-Triassic extinction: ~253 million years ago This extinction event is the largest event that has ever occurred on Earth. It wiped out about 90% of all species on the planet and wiped out the reptiles, insects and amphibians that roamed the land. What caused this catastrophic event was a period of rampant volcanism. According to the Sam Noble Museum in Oklahoma, in the ocean, rising levels of carbon dioxide dissolve into the water, poisoning marine organisms and depriving them of their oxygen-rich water. Rising sea temperatures also reduce oxygen levels in the water. Corals are one of the hardest hit groups of marine life – it takes 14 million years for oceanic reefs to rebuild as they once were. * Triassic-Jurassic Extinction: About 201 million years ago The Triassic period was the time when dinosaurs began to inhabit the world. Unfortunately, many volcanoes were also erupting at that time. While it’s still not clear exactly why this fourth mass extinction occurred, scientists suggest that massive volcanic activity occurred in an area of ​​the world now covered by the Atlantic Ocean. cover . Similar to the Permian extinction, volcanoes released huge amounts of carbon dioxide, causing climate change and devastating life on Earth. Global temperatures rise, ice melt, sea levels rise and acidification. As a result, many marine and terrestrial species became extinct; These include large prehistoric crocodiles and several species of flying pterosaurs. All dinosaurs were killed in the fifth mass extinction. Scientists estimate that many species that can fly, burrow or dive into the depths of the ocean survive. For instance, the only true descendants of dinosaurs living today are modern-day birds – more than 10,000 species are thought to have descended from survivors. Is the 6th going? According to The Conversation, scientists define a mass extinction when about three-quarters of species die out in a short geological time, i.e. less than 2.8 million years. Currently, humans are in the early stages of the latest mass extinction, which is happening much faster than any other species. According to the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), since 1970, populations of vertebrate species have decreased by an average of 68% and now more than 35,000 species are considered threatened with extinction. During the 20th century, as many as 543 species of terrestrial vertebrates became extinct, according to a research paper in the journal PNAS. Since the beginning of the industrial revolution in 1760, humans have been a major factor in Earth’s current environmental crisis. From greenhouse gas emissions and ozone depletion to deforestation, plastic piling and the illegal animal trade, humans have been proactively depriving the world of some species and threatening many others. Ecotourism is an industry that drives conservation efforts around the world, but it is on the verge of collapse since global travel restrictions were introduced. Without tourist income, conservationists are having a hard time protecting vulnerable species from poaching, while the COVID-19 pandemic is intensifying. The New York Times reported. Rhinos in Botswana, feral cats in South America and tigers in India have all been targeted in the past year. In the context of the current pandemic, the wildlife market has become the focus of attention for not only being environmentally irresponsible but also potentially endangering human health through infectious diseases. from animals to humans – such as the COVID-19 pandemic. These markets, which trade in live exotic animals or products derived from them, are found all over the world. For example, bear farms in Asia trap 20,000 Asian black bears for bile, leading to a decline in wild populations. Another potential solution to combat extinction could be the cloning of species. In February 2021, scientists revealed they had successfully cloned a black-footed ferret from an animal that died more than 30 years ago. Native to North America, these small mammals were thought to be extinct until a small colony was found in the early 1980s, where they were engaged in breeding and reintroduction programs. across America. The cloning process is similar to that of Dolly the sheep in the early 1990s.

In addition, the Chairman of the Provincial People’s Committee requested to stop festival activities, religious ceremonies, sports tournaments, gathering events (over 20 people) in public places, stadiums and other major events. really necessary. Encourage outdoor sports activities, no close contact. In addition, continue to stop non-essential business establishments such as: amusement parks, entertainment, karaoke, massage, bars, game shops, internet, discos, cinemas, gyms (gym, yoga,…).

Restaurants, shops, and food service establishments are allowed to serve less than 20 people/place. Temporarily suspend the reception of tourists (outside the province and foreign visitors) to Ly Son island.

Butterfly effect is a term used to describe the chaos theory concept of the sensitivity of the system to the original conditions. Originally used as a purely scientific concept, the butterfly effect has been widely mentioned as a metaphor in contemporary culture, especially works dealing with human relations. fruit or time paradox. Photo: Tagetra Many people believe that everything happens for a reason and nothing by chance. That there are trivial little things, or seemingly insignificant sequence of events, that also affect our future, can make great changes in history and create new destiny. Source In 1961, while simulating a weather prediction on a computer, mathematician and meteorologist Edward Lorenz accidentally entered .506 instead of 0.556127 as intended. This results in weather prediction obtained completely different from the original calculation. He was surprised when the computer gave a prediction that was very different from the original data even though the rounding value was negligible. From this mistake, Lorenz insisted on the tight binding of the physical system to the initial conditions in her speech. Mathematician and meteorologist Edward Lorenz. (Photo: Denviant) According to him, a butterfly flap can cause a change in the original condition of the physical system, causing dramatic changes in weather, even creating a tornado in a remote location. where the butterfly flaps its wings tens of thousands of kilometers. The butterfly effect was published in 1969 by Edward Norton Lorenz with the famous quote “Just one butterfly flapping its wings in Brazil can cause a tornado in Texas.” Butterfly effect in reality Several events are considered by many to be examples of the Butterfly Effect. 1. Drivers on the wrong path leading to World War I On June 28, 1914, the Black hand terrorist group’s plan to assassinate the Crown Prince of Austria – Archduke Franz Ferdinand was unsuccessful. A grenade thrown into the Crown Prince’s car during the visit missed, fell and exploded, injuring two of his entourage. The Crown Prince should have gone back to the hotel, but he insisted on visiting the emergency entourage in the hospital. However, his driver, unfamiliar with the route, turned the wrong way and immediately met Gavrilo Princip, one of the people involved in the previous murder, was sitting at the café beside the road. Immediately, Princip pulled out a gun and shot Prince Franz Ferdinand straight. The assassination triggered World War I. Photo: Internet It is said that, in general, the driver was misbehaving the wrong way, leading to the assassination of the Crown Prince of Austria. As a result, the Austro-Hungarian Empire declared war on the Serbian, leading to a declaration of war on Russia by Germany, drawing Belgium, France and Britain to declare war on Germany. 2. The young man was denied the artist’s dream, becoming a military dictator This is probably the most widely known butterfly effect on this list. In 1905, a young man applied to the Academy of Fine Arts in Vienna, unfortunately for him and for us too, he was rejected twice. That ambitious art student was Adolf Hitler. After he was rejected, he was forced to live in the city’s slums and his anti-Semitism began to flourish. He joined the German army instead of fulfilling his dream of being an artist, which has resulted in historical sites as you know it. 3. The kind soldier spared his enemy’s life, leading to World War II On September 28, 1818, during a fighting between British and German forces in the village of Marcoing (France), Private Henry Tandey saw a German soldier fleeing. Henry Tandey was about to aim when he realized the soldier was injured, he lowered his gun and let the soldier escape. Adolf Hitler. (Photo: Internet) This decision caused the world a tragedy that no one could imagine. The man who escaped death was Adolf Hitler. When World War II broke out, this incident became a psychological burden on Private Henry Tandey. When asked about his act of pardoning Hitler, Henry Tandey expressed regret: “ I don’t know what kind of person that soldier would become. As I watched innocent civilians being killed for Hitler’s atrocities, I asked God to forgive me for letting him live. “. From the decision to spare one’s life on the battlefields of World War I, it resulted in 60 million people dying in World War II. 4. A fictional book costs 900 million dollars to the American economy Photo: Internet In 1907, a stockbroker by the name of Thomas Lawson wrote a book called Friday the 13th which used the superstition of the day to cause panic among the stockbrokers on the Street. Wall. The book was so impactful that at the time, the US economy lost about 900 million dollars on this day because instead of going to work, on vacation, to go shopping, people were at home.

April 16, a very ordinary day. But if you taste carefully, This is another turbulent day. To China, to the United States, to Russia, and to Japan, it is all!

A series of major events are happening at a breathless rhythm, some of which have far-reaching impact.

The struggle is heating up.

From a completely personal point of view, at least 10 major events, many of which are related to China.

In the first incident, the United States imposed comprehensive sanctions on Russia.

It’s really ruthless.

Two days ago, Biden and Putin had just talked, and two days later, the United States was ruthless. Russia is still the enemy of the United States.

Among them are financial sanctions. The U.S. Treasury Department ordered that from June 14th, U.S. financial institutions are prohibited from directly purchasing Russian government ruble bonds. To some extent, this is financial strangulation.

There are also direct sanctions. They sanctioned 6 Russian technology companies on the grounds of cyberattacks by Russian intelligence agencies; sanctioned 32 entities and individuals on the grounds of interfering in the US presidential election; sanctioned 8 entities and individuals on the grounds of the Crimea issue. personal.

and also, Deported 10 Russian diplomats stationed in Washington. To expel diplomats, this is the fiercest diplomatic battle.

Taking into account the situation on the Ukrainian border, once Russia does exchange fire with Ukraine, more sanctions will be on the way.

In the second incident, the little brother also attacked Russia.

The United States took a cruel hand, and the little brother immediately followed.

A few hours later, Poland summoned the Russian ambassador and informed the latter that three Russian diplomats were listed as “unwelcome persons.” The Polish statement also made it clear that it supports the actions taken by the United States against Russia.

Poland is a weather vane.

This also means that More Russian diplomats in the West must be prepared. This will be a large-scale expulsion war.

In the third incident, Russia fought back. How can Russia swallow this bad breath? On the 15th, the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs also summoned the American ambassador and screamed. Zakharova, a spokeswoman for the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, said: “(The United States) will obviously receive a firm response to such aggressive behavior, and a response to sanctions will be inevitable. The United States should realize that it must be forced to act for both sides. The deterioration of the relationship pays the price.” The country has dignity, and diplomacy must be reciprocal, and Russia must counteract it. That also means that many American and Polish diplomats will be expelled by Russia. You should hurry up and pack your bags. Event four, China summoned the Japanese ambassador to China. Japanese ambassadors abroad have had a headache recently. On the 13th, the Japanese ambassador to South Korea, Koichi Sangsei, was summoned to the South Korean Ministry of Foreign Affairs before he had time to submit his credentials to Moon Jae-in, and he was scolded as a dog-blood spray. On the 15th, it was the turn of Japan’s ambassador to China Tori Hideo. Chinese Assistant Minister of Foreign Affairs Wu Jianghao came forward and lodged solemn representations regarding Japan’s proposed nuclear waste water discharge. Wu Jianghao is not polite, and said very harshly:

The relevant Japanese decision disregards the global marine environment, international public health and safety and the vital safety and interests of the people of neighboring countries, and is suspected of violating international law and international rules, which is not the work of a modern civilized country. China expresses its strong dissatisfaction and firm opposition to this. Japan, you are not what modern countries do. Event 5, the Ministry of Commerce of China made a statement. I have to talk about the Ministry of Commerce, because There is a sentence that is quite rich in connotation. The spokesperson of the Ministry of Commerce Gao Gao said on the 15th:

The Ministry of Commerce will closely follow the development of the situation and carefully evaluate (the Japanese decision) the possible serious threats to the safety and trade of related food, agricultural and fishery products, and to protect the safety of Chinese consumers. Meaning, you know. But it was not published.

The safety of Chinese consumers must be guaranteed, so we must carefully evaluate the impact of this discharge on Japanese food, agricultural products, and aquatic products.

Don’t forget, many supermarkets in South Korea have put up signs of “stop selling Nissan seafood”.

Event six, Kerry is active in Shanghai.

Kerry arrived in Shanghai late at night on the 14th, and the official activities began on the 15th.

He used to be Obama’s Secretary of State, and now he is Biden’s special envoy for climate issues. This is also the highest-level official sent by the United States to China after Biden took office.

Why come now?

The reason is also very simple. Regardless of the various US suppressions on China, even Kerry’s visit to China was accompanied by a so-called “unofficial delegation” that went to Taipei; but the United States should also realize that there are certain things that must be cooperated with China, especially in relation to climate change. On the issue of all mankind.

Considering that the United States will host the climate summit on April 22, some major powers have not made a clear statement, including China, and the United States also has a sense of anxiety.

Event 7: China-France-Germany Climate Summit.

Diplomacy is an art. While Kerry was busy in Shanghai, China suddenly announced on the 15th that At the invitation of French President Macron, on April 16, China, France and Germany held the Leaders’ Climate Video Summit.

The timing is interesting, and the summit of the three countries is more interesting.

Before the United States organizes the climate summit, China, France and Germany meet first. Considering the current situation of international struggles, this is really a stroke of genius.

Said it is a climate video summit, it is actually a Sino-French-German summit.

Event eight, Yoshihide Suga went to Washington.

On the 15th, Yoshihide Suga left for the United States. His mood should be mixed.

Happily, he is the first foreign leader to meet with Biden. The Americans have given a lot of face, and they have shown that they attach great importance to the relationship between the United States and Japan.

The headache is that the United States will definitely make various requests. One of them, according to media reports, the United States hopes that the joint statement by then will mention the security of the Taiwan Strait. The meaning is also very clear, the United States and Japan want to jointly intervene in the Taiwan Strait issue.

I also know that the last time the US-Japan summit mentioned Taiwan, it was before the establishment of diplomatic relations between the US and Japan in 1969. 50 years later, if this is the case, will China rebound strongly?

Japan must weigh the consequences. It is said that in the face of various urgings from the United States, Japan’s internal divisions are obvious and quarrels are formed.

Event Nine, Moon Jae-in is going to the United States.

After taking a look, the South Korean side has not yet expressed its position, but the United States announced first: next month, South Korean President Moon Jae-in will visit Washington.

He will be the second foreign leader to visit the United States after Yoshihide Suga.

Biden gave Yoshihide Suga for the first time, and Moon Jae-in for the second time. The US Secretary of State Blincoln and Secretary of Defense Austin visited Japan for the first time and South Korea for the second time.

You know, these first and second times were from Western countries such as Britain and Canada.

The situation has changed. Needless to say, this is obviously for China. Without China, Yoshihide Suga and Moon Jae-in, you don’t have this kind of treatment.

The situation of the struggle is fierce.

Moon Jae-in probably has a headache. Yesterday I saw an article analyzing South Korea’s diplomacy. The United States is now embarrassing South Korea, and the reason is very simple. The United States will leave sooner or later, but China is a neighbor that will not change for a thousand years.

In the tenth incident, the Hong Kong police began to move forward.

I was really impressed when I saw it.

On April 15th, also China National Security Day, the five major disciplined forces in Hong Kong raised the national flag. The outside world noticed, For the first time, Hong Kong police is no longer a high-legged British marching, but a neat and capable Chinese marching.

Under the training of officers of the PLA Hong Kong Garrison, the Hong Kong police have now also learned to walk in unison and on the right foot.

The flag bearer carried the five-star red flag, the Hong Kong regional flag, and the Hong Kong police team flag and walked in front of the team; while the British flag-raising ritual was that the flag bearer entered the stadium with the flag in hand.

There are also loud slogans, “Hong Kong police, loyal to protect the country’s security, and bravely to protect the home!”

The so-called original and clear source, The Hong Kong police finally took a crucial step.

I always feel that Hong Kong is definitely and must have a high degree of autonomy, which is determined by the Basic Law. However, with the same text and the same track, when it comes to national unification, the same forms must be the same, and those that should be discarded must be discarded.

The colonial color textbook must be changed; the colonial color marching should have been abandoned long ago. The Chinese are going to be like Chinese, and it is not ruled out that one day Hong Kong will change to driving on the right, just like the mainland. This is certainly a big plus for Hong Kong.

I have to say, After the toss of the past few years, the central government also learned from the pain and made up its mind to reverse the situation in Hong Kong with thunder means. Things that I wanted to do but failed to do before can now be solved.

This is the strategy of struggle.

This Hong Kong is the Hong Kong of the real Chinese. A small step by the Hong Kong police is a big step for Hong Kong.

On April 15th, a turbulent day, a simple list of 10 major events, in fact, far more than that. In the United States, ethnic riots continue; in the Middle East, Iran and Israel are in various contests; in the Ukrainian border, the army is facing off, and the war seems to be on the verge…

But I have to say that many major events that affect the world are related to China, although in many cases, China is completely lying down. The wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it. The person with the hammer in his hand looks like a nail.

Stay calm! We still have to be calm, and the more angry we are, the more we have to be calm.

The world is complicated, and the West is not monolithic. Insults and intimidation are by no means fighting. You can be vertical, and I can connect horizontally. Those who make fewer enemies and many more friends are also testing China’s wisdom and strategy.

The wonderful drama of 2021 kicked off this spring. The play must start from the prologue, but the prologue is not yet the climax.
