What happened

Well supportedReported by 8 independent outlets

Reports indicate that China's economy is operating on a two-speed model, with tech booming while consumer demand weakens. The government lowered its GDP growth forecast for 2026 to 4.6%, down from 4.8%, due to disappointing consumer data. The forecast for 2027 remains at 4.7%. The biggest geopolitical risk associated with China is a flare-up in tensions over Taiwan.
