前9个月爱尔兰国内生产总值收缩3.3%,增长2.0%;官员强调国内需求是更好的指标。 3.3% Ireland GDP contraction in first 9 months, Q3 2.0% growth; officials emphasize domestic demand as better indicator.
今年头九个月,爱尔兰经济国内生产总值缩减了3.3%,这主要是由于跨国公司的扭曲。 Ireland's economy saw a 3.3% contraction in GDP during the first nine months of the year, primarily due to distortions from multinational corporations. 然而,第三季度GDP增长了2%,扭转了以往由跨国部门活动推动的下降. However, a 2% growth in GDP was recorded in Q3, reversing a prior decline, driven by activity in multinational sectors. 尽管存在这些波动,但官员们强调,国内需求的变化比国内生产总值更能反映生活水平,这在衡量国内经济时会产生误导。 Despite these fluctuations, officials emphasize that modified domestic demand is a better indicator of living standards than GDP, which can be misleading in measuring the domestic economy.
