According to the General Administration of Customs (GAC), imports rose 19.3 percent, from a year earlier, to $139.7 billion, the weakest since November 2009. [Full story]

Comments & Opinion

China's economy at the crossroads

It seems more evident than ever that the Chinese economy is at a critical crossroads, with inflation soaring to the highest level in three years while other economic indicators point to a slowdown in growth.

The latest economic data has created a dilemma for policymakers. They have to maintain sustained growth while taming feverish domestic prices.

Inflation, fueled by surging food prices, hit 6.4 percent in June and could run out of control if the central bank loosens its monetary-tightening stance. However, the risk of an economic "hard landing" leaves Beijing with limited room for further policy maneuvering. [Full story]

Taking inflation by the horns

Curbing soaring prices has become a priority for China. In May the consumer price index (CPI), a measure of inflation, reached 5.5 percent year-on-year, a 34-month high, according to the National Bureau of Statistics.

Inflation is the result of the government's loose monetary policy since late 2009 which allowed extra money to flow into the economy, says Liu Lingling, professor of economics at Tsinghua University. The broad currency supply, or M2, in China reached 76.34 trillion yuan ($11.78 trillion) in May.

More tightening needed

With the consumer price index (CPI) hitting its highest level in nearly three years in May, policymakers need to put the brake on inflation again.

The latest decision by the People's Bank of China to raise the reserve ratio rate to a new high is surely only the start of efforts to absorb excess liquidity. The third hike in interest rates this year should come in weeks, if not days, to prevent inflation from rocketing through the roof. [Full story]

 

Export engine hums along

For those seeking clues on the health of the Chinese economy and global growth prospects, China's latest trade data are not of much help.

A trade surplus of $13.1 billion in May can be interpreted as evidence of the cup being half full or half empty. It is higher than that in April and shows that Chinese exporters are faring well. But it is less than expected, underlining a pullback in global demand that bodes ill for export growth. [Full story]

Hard-landing fears misplaced

China's economy may be the second largest in the world. But the Chinese economy, as financial markets see it, can still change direction with dizzying speed.

A few weeks ago, many commentators seemed to believe that the People's Bank of China, the country's central bank, was reacting too slowly to signs of the economy overheating. Now, after a run of weaker-than-expected data, many are worried that the pace of growth is already in rapid decline. [Full story]

Mid-year slowdown needed

Less speedy manufacturing growth is the latest sign that China may be entering a new phrase in its hard fight against soaring inflation.

Chinese policymakers should make it clear that they are ready to endure a period of moderate growth long enough for a decisive change in inflationary expectations to take root in this country. [Full story]
