China hits 5% growth target, but domestic weakness persists – Commerzbank

"From the current economic context, China's achievement of the 5% growth target is indeed positive news. However, the rising risks related to domestic market stagnation cannot be overlooked. The sluggishness in domestic demand poses potential threats not only to internal stability but also to the global market, given China's economic influence. The stagnation in the real estate sector and high unemployment rates can dampen investor sentiment, potentially becoming stumbling blocks to further growth. Consequently, there is a strong expectation for new government stimulus measures, which, if implemented effectively, could restore confidence in the Chinese economy. Yet, ignoring domestic challenges would be a mistake; how these issues are addressed will be critical for sustainable growth."
