The lockdown that will remain in effect until mid June has raised concerns over the full-year growth target.\"Since February, the external economic environment has improved, even though the pandemic continues to disrupt activities in many economies and threatens to undermine any recovery,\" it said.\"While the recent tightening of domestic restrictions and border controls represents a setback to segments of the economy, the broader economy should still see a recovery this year in tandem with the global economic rebound and further progress in the domestic vaccination programme.\"The performance of the economy in the first quarter of 2021 was stronger than expected.The final estimate for first-quarter growth came at 1.3 per cent on a yearly basis, compared to an earlier estimate of 0.2 per cent and the 2.4 per cent contraction in the previous quarter.The January-March growth was even higher than the 0.9 per cent growth projected by economists in a Reuters poll.On a quarter-on-quarter seasonally-adjusted basis, the economy grew by 3.1 per cent, extending the 3.8 per cent expansion in the fourth quarter of last year.The first quarter growth came on the back of the manufacturing sector's 10.7 per cent year-on-year expansion, faster than the 10.3 per cent growth recorded in the previous quarter.MTI said the Jan-March growth was due to output expansions in the electronics, precision engineering and chemicals clusters, which outweighed output declines in transport engineering, general manufacturing and biomedical manufacturing.The wholesale trade sector expanded by 3.5 per cent year-on-year, faster than the 1.8 per cent growth registered in the previous quarter, and the retail trade sector grew by 1.4 per cent.Growth of the information & communications sector accelerated to 6.4 per cent year-on-year, from the 2.6 per cent achieved in the previous quarter.However, the construction sector contracted by 22.7 per cent and the transportation and storage sector shrank by 16.5 per cent, compared with the same period last year. The food & beverage services sector contracted by 9.4 per cent year-on-year.MTI said that it is still possible that the Singapore economy will outperform the 4-6 per cent growth forecast for 2021, there are also significant downside risks, with the most important being the trajectory of the pandemic.\"Countries are experiencing recurring waves of infections, with the emergence of more transmissible strains of the virus, the easing of safe management restrictions, and delays in vaccinating populations.\"The ministry said these resurgences, as well as the countries' public health responses to them, will inevitably affect their economic growth.","kind":null,"is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":true,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":null,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"0","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":1},"commentList":[{"id":138823504,"gmtCreate":1621928578908,"gmtModify":1631891071983,"author":{"id":"3580036692422855","authorId":"3580036692422855","authorIdStr":"3580036692422855","name":"HunterX","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e4dcdf2c3699fb8fa1eee115468efcfb","vip":1,"crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"3580036692422855"},"htmlText":"How come Sgp economy doing good or bad is not corrlated to my bank account? 😂","listText":"How come Sgp economy doing good or bad is not corrlated to my bank account? 😂","text":"How come Sgp economy doing good or bad is not corrlated to my bank account? 😂","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/138823504","repostId":1189853368,"repostType":4,"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"comments":[{"id":4442216,"gmtCreate":1621928731798,"gmtModify":1635399777476,"authorId":3580036692422855,"author":{"id":3580036692422855,"authorId":3580036692422855,"name":"HunterX","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e4dcdf2c3699fb8fa1eee115468efcfb","vip":1,"crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"individualDisplayBadges":[]},"repliedAuthorId":0,"objectId":138823504,"type":1,"supId":0,"prevId":0,"content":"SGP only can invest for dividend stocks.
