Overall, the agency said, the British economy ended 2020 9.8% smaller, slightly better than the previous estimate of 9.9%.

The London streets are nearly deserted during the first full week of a four-week coronavirus lockdown in England, but some are calling to allow businesses to reopen their doors to kickstart the city economy. The imposition of new limits on public life in the autumn means the economy will likely end the year even smaller. The Office for National Statistics said Thursday that the economy grew by 15.5% in the July to September period. Despite the third-quarter improvement, the statistics agency said the economy was still 9.7% below where it was at the end of 2019. In addition to virus developments, the British economy remains hobbled by uncertainty over the future trade relationship between the U.K. and the EU.

(AP Photo/Frank Augstein)LONDON – The International Monetary Fund has downgraded its growth forecasts for the British economy for this year and next, following an acceleration in the number of coronavirus infections over the past couple of weeks. In its annual assessment of the British economy published Thursday, the Washington D.C.-based body lowered the forecasts it made just two weeks ago. Instead of shrinking by 9.8% this year, the Fund now expects the British economy to contract by 10.4%. The other U.K. nations — Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland — have also imposed fresh restrictions in recent weeks. After that, the British economy contracted by nearly a quarter before the restrictions started to be eased and large sections of the economy reopened.

In its latest survey of the the British economy, the Paris-based Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development said Wednesday that a trade deal that ensures a close relationship will minimize the costs of Brexit. The OECD warned that the economy will be further hobbled by a rise in unemployment, which has been largely held in check this year by a wage support program. A trade deal would ensure there are no tariffs and quotas on trade in goods between the two sides, but there would still be technical costs, partly associated with customs checks and non-tariff barriers on services. According to the OECD, even a smooth trade deal would see the British economy around 3.5% smaller in coming years than it would have been had it remained within the EU. British Prime Minister Boris Johnson had set a summit of EU leaders on Thursday as the deadline for a trade deal, but the talks are widely expected to continue for a few more weeks.

LONDON – The British economy did not contract as much as originally thought during the second quarter of the year when coronavirus lockdown measures were at their most intense — though the slump remained the worst on record. The Office for National Statistics said Wednesday that the British economy contracted by 19.8% in the April to June quarter from the previous three-month period, slightly less than its previous estimate of 20.4%. It now estimates that the economy shrank by 2.5% in the first quarter, against 2.2% previously. “It is clear that the U.K. is in the largest recession on record," the statistics agency said. Since May, when lockdown measures started to be eased, the British economy has managed to eke out three months of growth, which has helped it recoup around half of the output lost.

PARIS – The global economy is not doing as bad as previously expected, especially in the United States and China, but has still stuffered an unprecedented drop due to the coronavirus pandemic, an international watchdog said Wednesday. The global economy is expected to rebound and grow by 5% next year, the organization said. The OECD upgraded its forecast for the U.S. economy, anticipating a contraction of 3.8% this year instead of a plunge of 7.3% forecast previously. The Paris-based organization, which advises developed countries on economic policy, urged governments not to raise taxes or cut spending next year “to preserve confidence and limit uncertainty." “The aim must be to avoid premature budgetary tightening at a time when economies are still fragile,” it said.

NEW YORK – Online sales at Target more than doubled as the pandemic put millions in lockdown during the first quarter, revealing further the critical role big box stores played in getting supplies to an immobilized population. The pandemic has widened an already growing rift between big box retailers that deftly followed consumers online, and those, particularly mall-based clothing chains, that have struggled. Walmart this week reported a 74% surge in U.S. online sales for the first quarter. A years-long campaign by Walmart and Target to challenge Amazon.com online was, as it turns out, a dry run for a pandemic. Its stores were directly involved in supplying goods for 80% of online sales.

WASHINGTON – More than 3.8 million laid-off workers applied for unemployment benefits last week as the U.S. economy slid further into a crisis that is becoming the most devastating since the 1930s. Some outside reviews suggest that the number of job losses is likely even higher than is captured in the weekly unemployment claims. White Americans made up 55% of workers seeking jobless aid in March, African-Americans nearly 15%. This figure is much lower than the total number of people who have sought unemployment aid since the virus struck, in part because it lags behind by one week. Many laid-off workers in the United States are still struggling to obtain unemployment aid.

But diving into the issue more closely, the reasons why liquor stores remain open and thriving become a little clearer, even if they are debatable to some. Here are five reasons why it can be beneficial for liquor stores to remain open during the pandemic. Given this, liquor stores technically fall under the category of “food and agriculture” on the level of grocery stores and pharmacies, and thus, are considered essential. Grocery stores don’t have the selection of liquor stores. Do you agree that liquor stores should be considered essential, and thus, be allowed to remain open?

She said the IMF was also looking for ways to expand its current lending facilities to provide more help to countries. Georgieva said the IMF also wanted to find ways to provide more debt relief to the poorest countries.

Swedish environmental activist Greta Thunberg takes her seat prior to the opening session of the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, Tuesday, Jan. 21, 2020.
