Teen unemployment in Canada is 1.1 percentage points higher than expected, despite no formal recession since 2020. Recent immigration growth, AI disruption, and public sector cuts have uniquely burdened young workers. Older workers (30+) are experiencing lower-than-expected unemployment, highlighting an intergenerational divide. Canada’s overall job market may appear stable on the surface, but a closer look at age-specific data reveals an alarming trend: younger Canadians are facing a labor market significantly more hostile than what economic fundamentals would suggest. According to a recent report from Desjardins, unemployment among teens (ages 15–19) is especially high, exceeding model-based expectations by over 1 percentage point—a gap not seen for any other age group. Here’s the difference between expected and actual unemployment rates by age group, based on Desjardins’ output gap estimates and Statistics Canada data: Age GroupUnemployment Rate Difference (p.p.) 15 to 191.1 20 to 240.1 25 to 29-0.2 30 to 34-0.5 35 to 39-0.6 40 to 44-0.8 45 to 49-0.7 50 to 54-0.4 55 to 59-0.8 60 to 64-0.5 65 and over-0.7 Notably, all age cohorts above 30 are outperforming expectations, while youth under 25, especially teenagers, are seeing higher-than-expected joblessness. This intergenerational divergence has sparked what some are calling a “youth-cession.” Why Are Young Workers Struggling More? Several structural and cyclical factors are contributing to this imbalance. First, youth unemployment is historically more sensitive to economic downturns. However, what makes the current moment unusual is that youth unemployment has been rising steadily since 2022—even though Canada hasn’t experienced a recession since 2020. Second, population dynamics are playing a major role. The post-pandemic relaxation of work restrictions for non-permanent residents, such as international students, has led to a surge in the 20–24 age group entering the labor force. But demand hasn’t kept pace with supply. Technology and Sectoral Shifts Are Raising the Bar Sectors that traditionally employed youth (“mall jobs”, for example) are shrinking their hiring footprints, while others are investing in automation. Younger workers are often the first displaced by these shifts. Additionally, AI disruption is starting to reshape entry-level jobs, further limiting opportunities for those just entering the workforce. Even seasonal opportunities are drying up: the unemployment rate for returning students in summer 2025 surpassed 20%, the highest non-pandemic level in over 25 years. Policy Responses May Help, But Are They Enough? Governments have launched targeted programs like the Youth Employment and Skills Strategy, but youth are still facing high levels of involuntary part-time work and underemployment. Cuts to public sector jobs, once a reliable entry point for young workers, have only added to the challenge.

Key Takeaways China saw the largest decline, with its share of U.S. imports dropping by 7.7 percentage points from 2017 to 2024. Mexico (+2.2 pp), Vietnam (+2.0 pp), and Taiwan (+1.6 pp) recorded the largest gains in U.S. imports share. The United States’ trade relationships have shifted dramatically over the last decade, reflecting changes in global supply chains, geopolitics, and economic policy. This visualization tracks whether America’s top import partners have gained or lost share from 2017 to 2024, showing the percentage point change for each country’s share of U.S. imports using data from Citi Global Perspectives & Solutions. U.S. Imports From China See Significant Decline Looking at the data of changes among U.S. import partners, America’s diversification away from China is clearly visible in the 7.7 percentage point drop in import share since 2017.

The other major countries which had the most significant drops in their share of U.S. imports were Japan (-1.2 pp), Russia (-0.6), and Saudi Arabia (-0.5). Mexico, Vietnam, and Taiwan Grow Their Share of U.S. Imports Rising labor costs in China along with growing concerns about supply chain resilience and diversification pushed the U.S. towards growing trade with neighbors like Mexico (2.2 pp) and various Asian countries like Vietnam (2.0 pp), Taiwan (1.6 pp), and South Korea (1.0 pp). While China remains a key trade partner, its decline signals a structural shift in U.S. sourcing of goods even before Trump’s second term as president. Mexico’s strong manufacturing base and bordering location have made it a preferred alternative to China for manufacturing goods. Meanwhile, Vietnam has benefited from competitive labor costs and its growing role in electronics and textiles production.

Key Takeaways From 1990 through most of the 2010s, new college graduates typically enjoyed lower unemployment than the overall U.S. unemployment rate. Just before the COVID-19 pandemic, new graduates’ unemployment rate briefly rose above the overall rate, with AI advances post-pandemic exacerbating the trend post-pandemic. For decades, recent college graduates typically fared better in the job market than the general population. But over the past decade this dynamic has shifted, with new graduates now facing higher unemployment rates than the overall rate. The chart visualizes the overall U.S. unemployment rate versus that of recent college graduates (ages 22 to 27) from 1990 to June of 2025, using data from the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. U.S. College Grads Face Higher Unemployment From 1990 through the late 2010s, recent graduates consistently had lower unemployment rates than the broader U.S. population, however, this trend has reversed over the past decade. The data table below shows the overall U.S. unemployment rate and the unemployment rate of new college graduates on the first month of every year, along with the latest data point available (June 2025).

Even during economic downturns like the dot-com bubble bursting or the global financial crisis of 2008 and 2009, new graduates always had the lower unemployment rate. Tougher Labor Market for New Graduates Post-Pandemic While in late 2018 and in 2019 the new graduate unemployment rate overtook the overall U.S. unemployment rate a few times, it was the COVID-19 pandemic that solidified the full reversal. In June 2020, graduate unemployment peaked at 13.4% while the overall U.S. unemployment rate reached 12.8%. Since the unemployment rate has fallen back below 5% post-pandemic, new grads have continuously faced a higher unemployment rate than the overall U.S. unemployment rate. AI Advances Leading to Fewer Entry-Level Opportunities As of the latest data from June, 2025, new graduates now face an unemployment rate of 4.8% compared to the national overall rate of 4.0%. While the broader economy has recovered from the COVID-19 pandemic, AI advances and employer preferences for experienced workers appear to be squeezing entry-level job prospects, resulting in a tougher entry into the labor market for new college graduates. While some jobs are safer than others in terms of their potential for AI replacement, new graduates are having to quickly adapt to the technological advances that are changing the business landscape and overall labor market.

Key Takeaways In 2024, 61.7% of America’s crude oil imports were from Canada. Meanwhile, Mexico accounted for 7.1% of crude oil imports. Crude imports make up about 40% of the oil that is refined in America, much of which is heavier crude compared to America’s light oil. For decades, America was a net importer of oil, but the shale boom shifted the balance in 2019. But even with about a $65 billion trade surplus in petroleum trade, the U.S. needs crude oil imports. This is largely due to America’s refinery operations, with heavier crude from other countries enabling higher output and efficiency. This graphic shows the largest suppliers of U.S. crude oil imports, based on data from the Energy Institute. U.S. Crude Oil Imports in 2024 In the table below, we show where America gets its crude oil imports, measured in thousands of barrels per day (b/d): Country / RegionCrude Oil Imports 2024Thousand b/dShare Canada4,07261.7% Mexico4657.1% Saudi Arabia2734.1% Iraq1983.0% UAE380.6% Kuwait220.3% S. & Central America1,07516.3% West Africa2453.7% North Africa961.5% Europe741.1% Other CIS380.6% Despite America pumping out roughly 13.4 million barrels of crude oil per day, a record, it also relies heavily on Canadian crude imports. Since 2013, these imports have increased from 33% of total crude imports to 61.7%. Driving this increase is higher pipeline capacity, lower prices, and greater Canadian production. As the second-largest country for crude imports, Mexico shipped 465,000 barrels per day, thanks to both its proximity and supply of heavier crude oil. Today, American refineries operate most efficiently with a mix of heavy and light crude. Following behind is Saudi Arabia, the largest OPEC member supplying crude to America, covering 4.1% of the total.

The discrepancies between the median earnings of each age group in the U.S. might surprise you. This visualization highlights the median annual earnings of full time wage and salaried workers across age groups in the U.S., using data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Median Salary by Age in America As seen in the data table below, America’s youngest workers (aged 16 to 19) earn the least, with annual earnings of just $33,280. This figure is almost half the national median, reflecting their limited experience and lower-paying entry-level roles. AgeMedian Annual Earnings as of Q2 2025 16 to 19 years$33,280 20 to 24 years$40,664 25 to 34 years$59,228 35 to 44 years$70,252 45 to 54 years$70,824 55 to 64 years$67,392 65 years and over$62,296 All Adults (16+)$62,192 As workers gain more education and experience in their 20s, earnings rise significantly to $40,664 for those aged 20 to 24. Income growth accelerates as workers enter their 30s and 40s. Median earnings reach $59,228 for ages 25 to 34 and peak at $70,824 between ages 45 and 54. This period typically reflects career stability, advanced skills, and leadership roles, contributing to higher paychecks. Notably, the 35 to 44 bracket ($70,252) is nearly identical to the peak decade, showing sustained strength in mid-career earnings. Later Career and Retirement Age Earnings After 55, earnings begin to taper off as workers aged 55 to 64 earn $67,392. After that, those 65 and older see median earnings of $62,296, nearly identical to the overall national median. Interestingly, older workers (65+) earn around $3,000 more than those in the 25 to 34 bracket, reflecting a group of late-career professionals who continue to command strong wages.

Key Takeaways In 2024, rare earth demand from EV motors reached 37 kt, up 32% year-over-year. The bulk of rare earth demand from EV motors is driven by three elements: neodymium, dysprosium, and terbium. Electric vehicles are reshaping the demand landscape for rare earth elements. As EV sales surge worldwide, the motors that power them are becoming one of the fastest-growing sources of demand for rare earth magnets. In 2024, demand tied to EV motors reached 37 kilotons, and is expected to rise to 43 kt in 2025. The data for this visualization comes from Benchmark Mineral Intelligence as of August 2025. How Rare Earths Power EV Motors There are four main types of EV motors: Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors (PMSMs), Induction Motors, Electrically Excited Synchronous Motors, and Axial Flux Motors. Only PMSMs and Axial Flux Motors rely on rare earth permanent magnets, but together they made up over 86% of the EV motor market in 2024.

To withstand high operating temperatures, these magnets are often enhanced with dysprosium and terbium. YearRare Earth Demand (kt) 202219 kt 202328 kt 202437 kt 2025P43 kt PMSMs Remain the Dominant Technology Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors have become the global industry standard thanks to their efficiency, high torque output, and compact design. By comparison, induction motors are less efficient and bulkier, which makes them less attractive for large-scale EV deployment. Despite some automakers experimenting with magnet-free designs to reduce reliance on rare earths, PMSMs continue to capture almost two-thirds of the EV motor market. Future Demand Outlook As EV adoption accelerates, rare earth demand from motors is expected to grow steadily. Even as new technologies aim to reduce magnet content or use alternative materials, the efficiency advantages of PMSMs ensure that demand for neodymium, dysprosium, and terbium will remain strong.

Key Takeaways In 2024, China imported 11.1 million barrels of crude oil per day. Russia shipped nearly 2.2 million barrels per day (b/d), making it the largest single exporter of crude oil to China. China stands as the largest importer of crude oil in the world, with nearly a fifth coming from Russia in 2024. Since Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, these imports have increased from around 15.5% between 2018 and 2021. Beyond Russia, countries in the Middle East largely fuel the country’s oil demand. This graphic shows China’s crude oil imports in 2024, based on data from the Energy Institute. Ranked: The Top Suppliers of China’s Crude Oil Imports Below, we show China’s leading suppliers of crude oil last year: Country / RegionCrude Oil ImportsThousand b/d in 2024 Russia2,175 Saudi Arabia1,576 Iraq1,279 UAE712 Kuwait321 U.S.192 Canada184 Mexico20 Other Middle East2,436 S. & Central America1,055 West Africa934 Europe82 Other Asia Pacific42 Other CIS40 North Africa36 Australasia12 East & S. Africa10 As the above table shows, Russia has the largest share at 2.2 million barrels per day. When it comes to Russia, China benefits from the cheap price of Urals oil given Western sanctions. These economic factors—with Urals crude often selling at $5 to $10 dollars cheaper than similar grades—play a role in Russia and China’s growing oil trade. Meanwhile, Saudi Arabia accounted for 14% of imports, and Iraq followed with 12% overall. Another large grouping is “Other Middle East”. Falling in this group is Iran, which sends up to 90% of its crude exports to China, or about one million b/d. Similarly, China stands as the top buyer of crude in Qatar. On the other hand, imports of U.S. crude have dropped dramatically—now at less than 2%. Interestingly, as trade tensions have escalated, Canadian imports have surged to record levels in 2025 as China seeks out alternate suppliers.

Key Takeaways Forbes found finance and investments leads the top sources of billionaire wealth (464 billionaires) in 2025. Technology is the second-most common sector for billionaires (401), adding 59 new names since 2024. The world’s ultra-rich aren’t evenly spread across either the globe or the economy. Instead, their fortunes tend to cluster in a handful of high-growth, high-margin industries. This infographic breaks down the top sources of billionaire wealth by industry. Figures are sourced from Forbes’ 2025 World’s Billionaires List. All numbers in this article, including net worths, are as of March 7th, 2025. Finance & Investments Remains the Billionaire Engine With 464 billionaires—15.3% of the 2025’s total—finance and investments retains its crown as the dominant billionaire factory.

Per Forbes, some of these include: Theresia Gouw (venture capitalist, estimated net worth: $1.1 billion), Adebayo Ogunlesi (private equity, $2.2 billion) and George Raymond Zage III (stake in Grindr, $1.2 billion). Nevertheless, the Oracle of Omaha, Warren Buffett, worth an estimated $154 billion, remains the richest billionaire in the sector. His firm Berkshire Hathaway continues to all but print money, compounding returns across its sprawling portfolio of railroads, insurers, utilities, and beloved consumer brands. Tech’s Billionaire Creation Accelerates in 2025 Technology claims 401 billionaires in 2025, nearly 14% of the global total and up by 59 individuals since last year. After a rocky 2022–2023, the sector enjoyed a sharp recovery as AI‐driven productivity tools, cloud demand, and semiconductor shortages boosted valuations.

Key Takeaways In 2024, U.S. oil consumption stood at 19 million barrels per day, a change of -0.1% from the previous year. China follows next, with 16.4 million barrels per day, changing -1.2% over the year. Over the past decade, India’s oil consumption has grown at one of the fastest rates globally, increasing 3.8% on average, per year. In 2024, the world’s 10 largest oil-consuming countries accounted for 61% of the global share. This jumps to 80% among the top 20 countries, as overall consumption increased by a moderate 0.7% annually. Despite slowing growth and the rise of green energy sources, oil continues to be the leading source of energy worldwide. This graphic shows the world’s top oil-consuming countries in 2024, based on data from the Energy Institute. The Concentration of Global Oil Consumption Below, we show how global oil consumption is dominated by a handful of countries, supported by their economic strength, demographics, and oil production: RankCountryMillion Barrels in 2024 Per DayShare of Global Total 1 U.S.19.018.7% 2 China16.416.1% 3 India5.65.5% 4 Saudi Arabia4.03.9% 5 Russia3.83.8% 6 Japan3.23.2% 7 South Korea2.92.9% 8 Brazil2.62.5% 9 Canada2.32.3% 10 Germany2.12.0% 11 Iran2.01.9% 12 Mexico1.91.8% 13 Indonesia1.61.6% 14 Singapore1.51.5% 15 France1.41.3% 16 UK1.31.3% 17 Spain1.31.3% 18 Italy1.31.2% 19 Thailand1.31.2% 20 UAE1.21.2% 21 Turkey1.21.1% 22 Australia1.11.1% 23 Malaysia0.90.9% 24 Iraq0.90.9% 25 Taiwan0.80.8% In 2024, the U.S. consumed 19 million barrels of oil per day, representing 18.7% of the world total. Breaking it down further, approximately 70% of American consumption is from the transportation sector, followed by 24% for industrial use in areas like feedstock for plastic production. Meanwhile, residential and commercial use each make up about a 3% share. China ranks in second globally, consuming 16.1% of the global total. However, oil consumption per capita is less than a fifth of America. To partially make up for this, China relies more heavily on coal in its energy mix. Following next in line is India, covering 5.5% of world oil consumption in 2024. Unlike the U.S. and China—which have seen oil demand growth slow in recent years—India is projected to be the top country driving oil demand growth through 2030 given the rising strength of its economy and its phase of economic development.

Key Takeaways California, Florida, New York, and Texas are the states that added the most billionaires since 2015. In fact, Florida’s billionaire count more than doubled in a decade, driven by tax perks, migration, and business-friendly policies. The billionaire map of America looks very different today than it did a decade ago. New faces and shifting fortunes have reshaped where the country’s wealthiest residents call home, and some states have vaulted ahead in the billionaire rankings as seen in the infographic above. The data for this map comes from two related Forbes sources. Their 2016 billionaire breakdown (which used net worth figures as of November, 2015), and their Real-Time Billionaires List, accessed July, 2025. Using both datasets, we mapped the net change in U.S. billionaires by state. Due to data limitations, this map does not count U.S. billionaires in Washington D.C. and overseas territories.

Texas gained 35, cementing its draw as America’s energy capital and a swelling tech hub around Austin and Dallas. With no state income tax and a cost of living well below coastal peers, both states have become magnets for high-net-worth individuals fleeing higher-tax jurisdictions. Tech Hubs Keep Their Billionaire Edge, But is Growth Cooling? California remains the undisputed leader with 199 billionaires in 2025—up 75 from 2015—anchored by Silicon Valley fortunes from companies such as Apple, Google, and OpenAI. Yet the Golden State’s growth rate lags that of Florida and Texas, hinting at headwinds from rising costs and remote-friendly work patterns. New York added 43 new billionaires, driven largely by finance and media exits, but also saw some flight to lower-tax locales. Even with slowing momentum, these coastal giants still host 39% of all U.S. billionaires. Unexpected Wealth Hotspots in the Mountain West and Midwest Beyond the big four, several smaller states quietly punched above their weight. Nevada added 11 billionaires, boosted by Las Vegas real-estate windfalls and a growing tech presence around Reno. Utah’s count jumped six-fold on the back of booming software IPOs along the “Silicon Slopes.” Illinois and Massachusetts each gained 13 billionaires, underscoring the enduring wealth-creation power of Chicago’s trading dynasties and Boston’s life-science clusters. Conversely, traditional manufacturing states such as Michigan and Wisconsin slipped, each losing two members of the three-comma club.

In Japan, 30% of the population is aged 65 or older, the highest rate globally after Monaco. Today, 43 countries are considered “super-aged”, where the senior population makes up at least 20% of the population. On the other hand, immigration will be a primary driver of population growth in countries like the U.S. and Canada, despite record-low fertility rates. Overall, 52 countries are projected to grow through 2054 largely due to national immigration policies. Meanwhile, high fertility rates and younger demographics are set to propel growth in 126 countries, with many of these being among the world’s most populous. India, Pakistan, and Indonesia all fall within this group.

Key Takeaways The U.S. supplied about 21% of Europe’s crude oil imports in 2024, the largest source overall. Other Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS), which includes Kazakhstan and Azerbaijan, stood as the second-largest supplier of crude oil to Europe, according to the Energy Institute. The continent of Africa supplied a quarter of the total in 2025. In 2024, Europe imported 9.3 million barrels of crude oil per day (b/d), making it one of the largest importers of crude oil worldwide. As the continent reduces its reliance on Russian oil, imports from the U.S. climbed 6% in 2024. Meanwhile, Russian crude imports declined to 3% of crude oil imports across the European Union, down from 27% in 2021. This graphic shows European imports of crude oil, based on data from the Energy Institute. Tracking European Imports of Oil In the table below, we show Europe’s largest suppliers of crude oil, measured by thousand barrels per day (b/d) in 2024: Country / RegionCrude Oil ImportsThousand b/d in 2024 U.S.1,921 Other CIS1,622 North Africa1,159 West Africa1,117 S. & Central America946 Saudi Arabia774 Iraq766 Russia593 Mexico211 Canada118 UAE34 Other Middle East12 East & S. Africa10 Kuwait6 Other Asia Pacific2 The U.S. shipped 1.9 million b/d of crude oil to Europe last year, making it America’s largest goods export to the region. The Netherlands was the top European destination, largely due to Rotterdam’s role as a major hub for oil storage and trading. The UK, Spain, and France also imported notable volumes, though at significantly lower levels. Meanwhile, North Africa supplied nearly 1.2 million b/d of crude oil to Europe. Libya was Italy’s leading source in the first seven months of 2024, while African producers more broadly accounted for about one-quarter of Europe’s total imports, thanks to both its geographic proximity and abundant reserves.

Key Takeaways Indonesia has the largest Muslim population in any single country at 242 million—roughly 87% of its citizens. South and Southeast Asia dominate the ranking, with Pakistan, India, and Bangladesh each home to more than 150 million Muslims. This region is often overlooked for their Muslim populations as countries in the Middle East and North Africa tend to dominate conversations. Islam is the world’s second-largest relgion and 1.8 billion Muslims are spread across every continent. The visualization above ranks each country by the number of adherents, along with their share in the population revealing where Muslim communities are largest. The data for this visualization comes from two complementary sources: Pew Research, which tracks global religious affiliation, and the CIA World Factbook, which publishes the latest national demographic splits. Due to data restrains, the most recent figures between 2020–2023 have been used, depending on availability per country. Ranked: Countries With the Most Muslims Indonesia (242 million), Pakistan (235 million), India (213 million), and Bangladesh (150 million) alone account for nearly 40% of the world’s Muslims. Each of these densely populated nations has seen steady population growth over the past two decades, and fertility rates in Pakistan and Bangladesh remain above the global average. Together, they underscore the demographic weight of South and Southeast Asia, regions sometimes overlooked when the focus is on the Middle East.

Muslim-Majority and Muslim-Plurality States in Africa Meanwhile, Africa is home to some of the fastest-growing Muslim populations. Nigeria, already the continent’s most populous country, now counts more than 124 million Muslims, over half its citizens. In North Africa, Egypt and Algeria each report that roughly 95-98% of their inhabitants identify as Muslim, reflecting centuries-old cultural and religious continuity. Across the Sahel, countries like Niger and Mali post near-complete Muslim majorities, even as they grapple with rapid urbanization and climate pressures that influence migration patterns. Minorities in Demographic Giants: India and China While India’s 213 million Muslims comprise only 15% of its population, that minority is larger than the total populations of most countries. China’s Muslim share is just 1.4%, yet the absolute number—25 million—is comparable to the entire population of Australia. These examples illustrate how sheer population size can translate even small percentages into tens of millions of adherents. Demographers expect India’s Muslim community to surpass Indonesia’s by mid-century if current fertility differentials persist, potentially redrawing the global ranking.
