China Export Slowdown Could Indicate Surge Is Over
CHINA PRESS
China’s slowdown in export growth to 2.3% y/y during January and February could indicate the surge of previous months has declined, according to Yang Chang, chief analyst at Zhongtai Securities Research Institute. Zeng Gang, dean of the Institute of Urban Development at East China Normal University, said policymakers should focus on transitioning to high-quality trade given China's comparative advantage in low-cost manufacturing will be difficult to maintain, regardless of tariffs. Wang Qing, chief macro analyst at Orient Securities, highlighted the trade war will be offset by emerging external drivers, such as cross-border e-commerce and services exports. (Source: Yicai)
