China’s President Vows to Meet Growth Target
China’s president, Xi Jinping, has assured that the country will remain the world’s ‘growth engine’ and meet its GDP growth target of 5% in 2024. The Chinese government has taken bold steps to support its economy. Moreover, the stimulus has come at a time when the economy is struggling badly and there are potential tariff threats from the new U.S. administration. Despite that, China has been facing lower imports and exports, which greatly threatens the economy against Trump’s tariffs.
The outbound shipments saw a 6.7% growth in November, missing estimates by 8.5% and down from a 12.7% growth in October 2024. On top of that, the imports declined 3.9% in November, the worst performance for imports in nine months, as reported by Reuters.

However, for investors to be attracted to the Chinese stock market, something positive needs to happen, especially how the economy reacts to the policy during the first half of 2025.
