China’s third-quarter economic growth quickens to 4.5% as exports surge, beating estimates
Robust shipments of chips and electronics helped China meet its 4.5% growth target as the IMF cut its forecast on weak domestic demand.
- China's National Bureau of Statistics reported the economy grew 4.5% in the third quarter ending September, meeting the lower end of Beijing's annual 4.5-5% target.
- Robust exports of chips and electronics components, driven by a global artificial intelligence boom, offset sluggishness at home and supported China's economy despite weak domestic demand.
- A prolonged housing market downturn in its fifth year remains a drag on growth, with an estimated 70% of Chinese household wealth tied up in property.
- Last month, the government unveiled limited stimulus measures including mortgage subsidies for first-time home buyers and targeted rate cuts as Beijing pledged to step up support.
- The IMF downgraded its 2027 growth projection for China to 4% last week, citing persistent weakness in domestic consumption and investment as headwinds.
