China Reports Decline In Factory Growth

A lot has been going on, on many fronts in China and the US. However, what is also true is that there has also been an exceptional slowdown in China’s GDP growth.

Moreover, according to reports, China’s PMI dropped to 50.0 in November, after it rose to 50.2 in October. On Friday, additional pressure on Beijing led to higher pressure and additional support for both China and US.

On the other hand, China’s exports are so far resilient. Its shipments are high and more than that of US right now. Orders have been slumping at the moment and there is also a very chance of further decline after US tariffs come to effect.

Additionally, the drop in PMI also shows that at the moment it is also missing market expectations and it is down from 50 in November to 50.2 in October.

However, this isn’t the end because market watchers are expecting a big break through in the ongoing trade wars between the two countries. However, some are still expecting certain positive outcomes of this on going trade war.

China’s PMI surveyhas also showed some weakness, both domestically and abroad too.

The production sub indexalso showed a big decline, which shows that activity in China is reducing greatly.

Additionally, new export orders have also dropped for the 6th straight month in a row. The sub index increased from 47 to now 46.9 in October.

On Friday, according to a NBS report showed on Friday, China’s service sector moderated in November. However, despite that, it has remained at a very strong and solid level.

Moreover, the official non-manufacturing PMI also reduced from 47.1 to 47.6 in October, which shows that there has been a weak domestic demand in the country.
