📘 Part 1. When the World’s Factories Slow Down — What the Manufacturing Data Is Telling Us In early November 2025, the global economy once again found itself under the shadow of slowdown. After several years of post-pandemic recovery, global manufacturing has clearly entered a period of “cooling down.” According to the latest reports from the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and S&P Global, the Purchasing Managers’ Index (PMI) for major manufacturing countries has stayed below 50 for eight consecutive months. That is the longest stretch of contraction since COVID-19, and it signals that “demand shortfall” is spreading across the world’s production network. 1️⃣ Manufacturing PMI: A World Map Below 50 China: 49.3 (below 50 for 7 straight months) South Korea: 48.8 (new export orders −5.2%) Japan: 48.7 (export slowdown + rising costs) Germany: 44.9 (lowest since the 2012 eurozone debt crisis) United States (ISM Manufactur...

Just a decade ago, electric vehicles (EVs) were viewed as “eco-friendly niche products.” Tesla changed that narrative, making EVs the centerpiece of global mobility and redefining the entire automotive paradigm. But the Tesla of 2025 is not the Tesla of the past. Once the ultimate symbol of innovation, the company now faces a mix of slowing growth, eroding profitability, and intensifying competition — pressures that demand its “next stage of evolution.” As of October 2025, Tesla’s stock trades around $456, showing little year-to-date progress and moving in repeated correction cycles.
