The global outlook for auto sales wasn't looking great for 2019 even before the trade tiff between the U.S. and China

S&P Global Ratings said it had reckoned Europe would provide a little growth in 2019, but now it sees stagnant sales this year.from its previous forecast of 16.8 million, while China, which has provided a hugely expanding market for about 20 years is now likely to fall by 3%. S&P previously expected growth of between 1 and 2% in China.

News President Trump has probably put off by 6 months a decision to impose imports on cars and parts will provide some temporary relief for Europe’s major automakers. A decision had been expected on May 18. “As the European industry accelerates its efforts to bring new models to the market between 2019 and 2020 to comply with stricter environmental regulations, we deem it likely that consumers might decide to defer purchases to next year when the product offerings will be larger and presumably more affordable,” the report said.
