Emirates has recorded its biggest yearly loss in three decades.

In a tweet the Emirates group announced it lost $6 billion USD for the 2020/2021 past year.

The airline blamed the worldwide travel restrictions as the main driver of the slump.

The group’s revenue was $9.7billion USD, a decline of 66 percent over last years results.

Emirates revealed their current cash balance is now at $5.4 billion USD which is down 23 percent from last year mainly due to the weak demand in air travel caused by multiple pandemic-related lockdowns.

In a recent interview on Bloomberg, Yellen stated that “For the US, the kinds of metrics that we would monitor that would summarise risks — whether it’s asset valuations or a good degree of leverage — things look good, I don’t see red lights flashing”. #featured #trending
