Скачать или смотреть The Staggering Scale of Economic Growth: China vs. USA (2008-2024)

This chart (discussed in the AWAIM® Investment Committee Meeting held on November 18/19, 2025 between AWAIM's Los Angeles and Hong Kong offices) reveals the dramatic difference in economic growth between the world's two largest economies since 2008.

The Key Takeaway: While the US economy has seen steady growth, China's expansion has been on an entirely different scale.

By the Numbers:

China's Real GDP: Exploded by 431.7% since 2008. That's an average annual growth of 10.33%.

US Real GDP: Grew by a solid 39.44% over the same period, with an average annual growth of 1.97%.

In simple terms, for every dollar the US economy grew in size, China's economy grew by over ten times that amount. This visualization perfectly captures China's rapid economic ascent and the shifting global economic landscape.

What do you think has been the primary driver behind China's massive growth? Let's discuss in the comments!
