Version 0.62 (2024-07-14 17:54:45.754000)

updates: China's exports grew 8.6% YoY in June, beating forecasts, while imports shrank 2.3%. The trade data suggests manufacturers are front-loading orders ahead of expected tariffs. Weak domestic demand and strong production capacity relying on exports are reflected in the economic condition in China. The sustainability of strong exports is a major risk for China’s economy in the second half of the year. The trade surplus stood at $99.05 billion in June, the highest on record. The miss on imports might not bode well for exports in the coming months. China's steel exports in H1 2024 jumped 24% YoY, pointing to a faltering construction sector. China's economy is struggling to gain momentum despite efforts to stimulate domestic demand. China's central bank is expected to leave a medium-term interest rate unchanged. The weak Chinese currency limits Beijing's monetary easing efforts. Analysts expect China to roll out more policy support measures in the short term.

updates: China's exports grew at their fastest in fifteen months in June, reaching 8.6% year-on-year, while imports unexpectedly shrank by 2.3%. The trade surplus stood at $99.05 billion, the highest on record. The mixed data suggests strong external demand and weak domestic consumption, prompting calls for government stimulus. Analysts warn about the sustainability of strong export growth due to increasing global trade protectionism. The miss on imports might not bode well for exports in the coming months. China's steel exports in the first half of the year jumped 24% from a year earlier, pointing to a faltering construction sector. China stocks tracked regional markets lower, with the mixed trade data weighing on sentiment. Economists and investors are awaiting the Third Plenum to be held on July 15-18 [fda9e6cb] [6c1ce568] [f1d63c15]. China's trade surplus in June amounted to $99.05 billion, the highest recorded value since 1981. The US has long considered the surplus an irritant. China's large trade surplus with the United States has been a long-standing issue. Experts are concerned about the sustainability of strong exports due to weakening US economy and escalating trade conflicts. Germany's car manufacturers are weakening in sales. Wholesale price inflation in the US unexpectedly accelerated in June. Interior ministers in Germany are calling for a shift in asylum policy. A person was arrested for drug dealing on the way to a festival. China's exports to ASEAN rose by 15% in June. Analysts expect exports to remain robust despite increased tariffs, but sustainability is questioned [f3a3c5fd] [cb925697].

Imports unexpectedly shrank 2.3% compared to a forecast 2.8% increase, highlighting weak domestic demand.

Analysts warn that the sustainability of strong exports is a major risk for China's economy in the second half of the year. China's trade surplus stood at $99.05 billion in June, the highest on record. The United States has repeatedly highlighted the surplus as evidence of one-sided trade favoring China. China is expected to roll out more policy support measures in the short term to boost domestic consumption.
