In November 2024, China's industrial production grew by 5.4% compared to last year's. This was in line with what experts expected and a slight increase from the 5.3% growth in October. This rise is largely due to government efforts to help businesses, especially in the manufacturing and industrial sectors.
However, other economic signs tell a different story. Retail sales only increased by 3.0% year-on-year, much lower than the expected 4.6% increase and down from 4.8% in October. This suggests that people are not spending as much money as hoped.
Fixed asset investment, which includes things like buildings and machinery, went up by 3.3% for the year to date, but that was just below the expected 3.4% growth.
Overall, while industrial production is doing well, the lower retail sales point to problems with consumer demand and confidence in the Chinese economy.
