RT @HiddenValueGems: Interesting facts:

✅ Switzerland has had the strongest currency over decades

✅ Yet manufacturing accounts for 18% of GDP, one of the highest share among developed nations

✅ Over half its exports are “high-tech” — more than double the US level

✅ Its current account has remained in surplus averaging 4% of GDP since 1980s

✅ It generates more than $100 in GDP per hour worked — that’s more productive than any of the other 20 largest economies.

US administration may consider other ways to support domestic manufacturing, not just weakening the dollar.

Google and DeepSeek haven’t confirmed the claims.
