Fitch says weak Chinese domestic demand will limit growth to 4.1% in 2026

Importance
Level 1
  • "China’s economic data point to a continued two-speed economy in 2026, with strong external demand balanced against subdued domestic demand".
  • "We believe domestic demand will remain constrained by sluggish consumer confidence, deflationary pressures, and investment headwinds that have broadened beyond the property-sector correction and are amplified by the local-government debt overhang."
  • "Policy efforts to reignite investment and shift towards greater consumption are likely to intensify, but on an incremental basis, providing modest support to economic activity."
