China Q2 GDP Growth Below Estimates
The Chinese economy expanded by 6.3% year-on-year in Q2 2023, showing faster growth compared to the 4.5% recorded in Q1, but falling short of market estimates of 7.3%. The latest figures were distorted by a low base of comparison from last year when Shanghai and other major cities were under strict lockdowns. During H1, the economy grew by 5.5%. China had set a GDP growth target of around 5% for this year, following a 3% expansion in 2022. Beijing has been cautious about launching substantial stimulus measures, especially as local government debt has soared. In June alone, economic indicators presented a mixed picture: retail sales rose at a much softer pace, while industrial output growth accelerated. The urban jobless rate remained unchanged at 5.2%, but youth unemployment reached a new high of 21.3%. Earlier released data indicated that China's exports declined the most in three years due to high inflation in key markets and geopolitical factors affecting foreign demand.

China Q1 GDP Growth Rate Beats Estimates
The Chinese economy advanced 4.5% yoy in Q1 of 2023, accelerating from a 2.9% growth in Q4 and topping market estimates of 4%. It was the strongest pace of expansion since Q1 of 2022, amid efforts from Beijing to spur the post-pandemic recovery. Retail sales growth was at a near 2-year high in March, industrial output rose the most in 5 months, and the surveyed jobless rate fell to its lowest in 7 months. Data released earlier showed exports from China unexpectedly rebounded in March, and the trade surplus came larger due to efforts to deepen trade with developed countries and explore new possibilities with emerging economies. However, the statistics agency mentioned in a statement that a complex global environment and insufficient domestic demand mean the foundation for the country's recovery is "not yet solid." China set a modest GDP target of around 5% for 2023. Last year, the economy added 3%, missing the government's goal of about 5.5%.
