Tailwinds with a bit of turbulence
• Recent economic growth has been anaemic due to impacts of trade agreement negotiation strategies and
other factors creating an uncertain economic environment, compounded by the development of the
Coronavirus pandemic
• Economic and trade (export) growth could pick up significantly in the back half of 2020 due to less uncertainty
• Volatility of the transition period is part of the process of adjusting to new policies

Private vehicle sales and international trade trends
With slow growing population and lower GDP growth, as well as a shift towards electric vehicles that last longer
than internal combustion engine vehicles, it is more likely that US vehicle sales will decline from the current 16 to 17
million units per year level. The shift to electric vehicles is expected to slowly replace the current US vehicle fleet
