    Brazil Tops World in Importing Chinese Cars

    Brazil has become the world's largest importer of Chinese cars, with a 147% year-on-year increase in imports. This surge is largely due to car brands increasing their shipments before a tariff hike on electric vehicles in Brazil. Between January and May, China exported $5.2 billion worth of vehicles to Brazil, with $4.5 billion corresponding to electric models.

    Decline in New Online Sellers in Russia

    The number of new sellers entering the Russian e-commerce market has decreased by 25% year-on-year in the first half of 2023. This decline is attributed to falling business profitability, with some smaller players leaving the market. The increase in marketplace commissions, service costs, and logistics has also contributed to this trend. Experts predict a further reduction of 5-15% in the number of active sellers if current conditions persist.

EDP's net debt stood at €17 billion, and the company expects to end 2026 with a record profit of €1.4 billion.
