Economists believe the U.S. could lose its ranking as the world’s leading economy in the 21st century, as measured by gross domestic product. But the U.S. is set to extend its run through the 2020s, on the back of slower-than-expected growth trends in China. Investors are now placing fresh bets on emerging markets as the working-age population booms in the Indo-Pacific.

Probably not
I am from columbus capital of thee world I am thee self proclaimed leader of thee world a.k.a thee greatest thing that ever happened call me king justin.
What a stupid title of this video!
CHINESE DENG!! "It doesn't matter whether a cat is black or white, as long as it catches mice." Economics is the key to success not military…The Soviet Union tried to match the United States dollar for dollar and failed miserably!! I know our supreme leader will get many policies WRONG!! But as long as we work UNITED!! 1200million Chinese citizens waking up 6am and working until 8pm…..six days per week!! I know we can BEAT the UNITED STATES ECONOMY by 2030.. I know United States citizens are more technologically advanced than us’ BUT are they willing to work 12hours per day 6 days per week?? China 🇨🇳 us’ Chinese Children are still behind!! US can produce 2nm chips … we Chinese scientists can only produce up to 6nm…BUT I can assure our fellow country men and women we are working 120hours per week to bridge the gap between 🇺🇸 and 🇨🇳!!!
WOW, the difference between number 1 and 2, and the rest of the world is scary. . China has 5 times the population of the United States and less billionaires. US gdp per capital is not higher than China, that is one of the nonsense our people keep spreading. How many people makes $76,000 in this country a year? More than 80% of the work force in the United States makes less than $50,000 a year. Plus, Chinese people have more money saved than us here in the United States. From my prediction, China will over take the United States in terms of GDP anywhere between 2026-2028. In 2-4, you can come here to criticize me or prove me right. India can never be a peer competitor of the United States or China in terms of economic activities. India doesn't have the infrastructures.
the answer is no.
Not with democrats ruining everything
China said many times, they don't want to replace the US. That's not their goal. No country this century will be number 1. We are in a multipolar world now, and that's how it's going to be for now on. US no longer has the power it once had, sanctions are becoming more an more useless as time goes on.
USA is blessed. Americans be grateful. remain humble and hard working.
Depends on how you define economy. If you measure in purchasing power, China has passed US since 2014. China has been the top producer of the world for a decade. But if you add all those financial speculation, US is still ahead of the game. Luckly, the world still uses US Dollars so the financial game is productive.
No country spends like the US consumer we have absolutely nothing to worry about
At least someone mentioned GDP by PPP. China overtook USA in 2014, literally a decade ago.
Not if Biden is re elected
Did this lady just say these wars are about water?
Doesn't matter. The working class is struggling the same around the world.
Jeffrey Sachs, top CCP simp.
Of course. It is about to headquarter the Western clean energy transition in the United States.
Why do you keep citing that worthless and evil hack Jeffrey Sachs who lies about the United States systematically, is anti Ukraine, and has a poor record?
thought for a short while china was coming ahead but in recent years they are showing they are slowing and becoming a victim of their own dictator freedomless society protocols. compared to china the u.s has a very stable government despite in the past 50 years with reckless spending i don't see asia beating north america in economic prosperity
No one expected China will obtain full cycle of high-end chips production. Now they have their own DUV 28 nm machines which was unimaginable. SMIC working on 5 nm chips on ASML DUV equipment. Dominance of Chinese EVs. That's what matters
No one thought China will overcome USA in 2020s. It was 2050 always as estimated date.
China has 40% of rural population. It's enormous source of future growth.
This episode shows how frightening for Americans Chinese World's Leading status is.
It's like antemortem muttering.
If China was a democratic country, it would have surpassed the US economy by now. China needs to copy America political system.
Even if population declines- it’ll get richer
Yea bacause china middle east and India are more corrupt than the us. Nobody else has the resources to dispute that.
It’s already begun.
The US’s decline that is.
USA is finished , there is nothing that YANKEES produce that world wants anmore, that Asians can not produce, cheaper, better… just look at BOEING 737 and its FLYING DOORS…while in midair🤨
Biased and precocious
I am not from the US, nor do I live in the US, but I do want to add my opinion; I remember perfectly back in 2007-8, the consensus was that China was to surpass the US economy sometime between 2017-2020, it didn't happen; then the consensus was that it was going to happen surely before 2030, it won't happen; now, the consensus is saying until 2040. Maybe it will happen, I don't know; but my point is, never in history has a declining country have so much data of the big picture; what I mean is, that the huge availability of the macrotrend information is allowing countries, and in this case, the US, to actually do implement programs to avoid what seemed to be inevitable
US has been printing its way out of economic troubles but it can’t do it forever, then what?
a population of 300 million producing much wealth than all these other Billions long live the Kingdom of America
