FROM THE PRESS: The People's Bank of China still has room to cut interest rates and add new structural tools to support the economic recovery following the cut to the reserve requirement ratio last week, said Ming Ming, chief economist at CITIC Securities. While fiscal policy should focus on resolving debt and releasing the vitality of market entities, authorities should consider increasing the size of next year's fiscal deficit, said Ming. After showing early signs of life in August macroeconomic data, the economy is expected to rebound further in Q4 and achieve the 5% growth target for 2023, said Zhang Jun, chief economist at China Galaxy Securities.
