It differs from a traditional way of investing into shares of foreign companies listed on a stock exchange. The companies which make foreign direct investment usually own a part of the company in which they invest and they have influence on the decision making process. In the United States, FDI is defined as an American investor (called the U.S. parent) owning a minimum of 10 percent of a foreign firm (known as a foreign affiliate). The total direct position of the United States abroad amounted to 6.68 trillion U.S. dollars in 2023. Although the phenomenon profits greatly from the technological advances of the 21st century, as well as from the cultural flexibility of today’s workforce, FDI has a long history, going back to the colonial empires. Not without critics, FDI is generally believed to bring advantages to the investing company, such as access to new markets and decreased costs of labor, materials and production facilities. The local economy can benefit from an infusion of capital, access to new technologies and engagement of native labor pool. There are three recognized types of foreign direct investment, namely horizontal FDI, platform FDI and vertical FDI, along with various methods of implementing the investment itself. FDI considered by many one of the motors of worldwide economic growth. U.S. foreign investment abroad has seen a dramatic growth in the past decades.

According to preliminary figures, the growth of real gross domestic product (GDP) in China amounted to 5.0 percent in 2024. For 2025, the IMF expects a GDP growth rate of around 3.95 percent. Real GDP growth The current gross domestic product is an important indicator of the economic strength of a country. It refers to the total market value of all goods and services that are produced within a country per year. When analyzing year-on-year changes, the current GDP is adjusted for inflation, thus making it constant. Real GDP growth is regarded as a key indicator for economic growth as it incorporates constant GDP figures. As of 2024, China was among the leading countries with the largest gross domestic product worldwide, second only to the United States which had a GDP volume of almost 29.2 trillion U.S. dollars. The Chinese GDP has shown remarkable growth over the past years. Upon closer examination of the distribution of GDP across economic sectors, a gradual shift from an economy heavily based on industrial production towards an economy focused on services becomes visible, with the service industry outpacing the manufacturing sector in terms of GDP contribution. Key indicator balance of trade Another important indicator for economic assessment is the balance of trade, which measures the relationship between imports and exports of a nation.

China has become one of the driving forces in the global outbound tourism industry.

Xiong et al. (2021) use data on daily stock returns from 25 major publicly listed firms from China and eight major pork-exporting countries to provide the first systematic analysis of the firm-level economic impacts of the 2018 African Swine Fever (ASF) outbreaks. We find that, on average, announcements of ASF outbreaks have led to positive and significant stock returns for both Chinese and international hog firms. China’s hog firms, on average, enjoyed 10%–40% cumulative abnormal returns during the 2019 Chinese Spring Festival, when investors saw signs of a near-20% inventory loss during a peak demand season for pork.

Several databases are necessary to conduct the analyses. ASF announcements in China from August 2018 to September 2019 came from China Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs. The ASF announcements detailed the release date, the county-level location and specific site (i.e., pig farm, slaughterhouse, or transport vehicle) of event detection, the number of hogs in inventory, and the number of infected and dead pigs. Daily market indices and stock price data for China’s top 10 publicly listed hog firms and 15 foreign public listed hog firms from eight countries were downloaded from Yahoo Finance.

The daily firm-level stock price data contain important information that evaluates firms’ performance in the market. In addition to economic drivers, stock prices often also reflect the effect of non-economic shocks. The ASF announcements dataset put together in Xiong et al. (2021) allows researchers to explore different aspects of the economic consequences as a result of the ASF outbreaks in China other than for the financial market. The daily stock price data for Chinese and international hog firms allow others to study the effect of any economic and non-economic events that also occurred during the same sample period that might impact stock price movements.
