China's Economy Struggles Gain Momentum: Inflation and Factory Prices Disappoint China’s June economic data reveals persistent weak demand despite government efforts to boost consumption. Consumer inflation rose marginally by 0.2% year-on-year, falling short of expectations, while factory-gate prices continued their 21-month deflation streak, declining by 0.8%. These figures underscore the ongoing challenges in China’s economic recovery, particularly in the property sector and domestic consumption. Despite initiatives to stimulate spending, consumers remain cautious, as evidenced by declining car sales. Economists suggest that more aggressive fiscal and monetary policies may be necessary to drive a meaningful recovery, with some speculating that potential U.S. Federal Reserve rate cuts could provide room for China to implement its own monetary easing measures. « Previous Article Next Article » Share This Article Choose Your Platform: Facebook Twitter Google Plus Linkedin Related Posts Global $91 Trillion Debt Crisis Looms as Politicians Dodge 'Hard Choices' READ MORE Treasury Yields Dip Ahead of Fed Rate Decision READ MORE "US Taxpayers Owe $3/4 Million Each, It's the Biggest Banana Republic of All" – Mike Maloney READ MORE U.S. Wholesale Inflation Steady at 0.2% in August, Core Prices Edge Higher READ MORE Walmart and Target Cut Prices Amid Persistent Inflation Concerns READ MORE Add a Comment Cancel replyYour email address will not be published.
