Actually the opposite usually happens. The better the economy the lower the birthrate. Especially in China were children are still seen as a retirement "tool".

Wow! Bellamy shares are getting hammered right now(4.2%) down.I hope it is not an industry driven fall.... or can someone please let us know why? and now the difference between A2 and Bal is just about 50C
I thought that information was widely known
The important detail is that China's current rate of birth isn't high enough to sustain its future "people" needs (1.6 children per woman vs a needed 2.1)
China has relaxed its one child policy - next steps will, I reckon, be subsidising / encouraging a higher birth rate.
But its not just a higher birthrate - its a higher rate of healthy children growing into healthy productive adults. And what better than a steady diet of A2 milk!
(Once A2 have locked in China over the next 5 years they can then target africa - the continent with a growing birth rate. Unlike pretty much everywhere else where rates are declining)
Not a lot of bull.
As reported last night extensively on the BBC, China growth definitely slowing, stock market very poorly performing and business confidence down.
Only question is will it impact on A2......
Can the middle/upper class continue to be interested and afford this product?
One thing is for certain, not many NZ stores have A2 in them at present.
NZ market will probably be a loss to the bottom line with costs etc... as not enough volume to make a profit over time.
...and just to add, about 1/5 of Chinese large caps have reported half year results now with 1H growth sitting firmly at 40% yoy, if that's considered a 'collapse' then f* me, rest of the world ex USA must be in the middle of a great depression right now. So not sure where guys like bull/muppet keep getting their notion that "china is slowing" from tbh...
"people getting restless" hmm ok do yourself a favor and catch a flight there take a look, people must be exhausted from shopping at unmanned stores and getting same day delivery via drones, while you're busy writing complaints to Auck metro about their slow services lol
Edit: if your view of the world is through clickbait journalism who has no better content than to regurgitate the same old tariff news (and a slight market correction) then best to learn to ignore the noise
