Population decline accelerates in China, worsening outlook for economic growth

5.2% growth despite all that...i wonder how the CCP manipulated the numbers to get that figure

Been to shanghai early this year. Airport was quiet. Only a few stores open. This doesnt look like a 5% GDP growth economy

With population of 1.4B decline by 10% still having a substantial number.

This is the job of the population policy officials.

Chinese 🇨🇳 property sector, which accounts for 30% of GDP, is crashing. - Exports and imports, accounting for 37% GDP, are down. - Foreign investment is falling over 90% compared to 2018. - Foreign visitors are down 94% compared to 2019. - Youth unemployment hits over 21%, a record. - Its shrinking workforce is 10 years older than neighboring countries. Still, China keeps reporting outrageous GDP numbers. Lol Where does the growth come from?

Never put all the apples in one basket. We all have awake 😅

more interested in US UK and european countries growth rates.

Population decrease for China is a good thing. 1.4billion is too much !!!

Shouldn't GDP calculation base on a fix formula? If it calculation can exclude the negative element it value will be always up ... even it econ drop ... if happen in business we call it scam. Right?

Population is an interesting issue but a lot of economists have simplified it. First of all increased young population can be an asset, and can also be a liability if it is not productive. We should also not look at the population issue with a pair of historic eyes. Technologies have enhanced productivity. Imagine how much labour have been deployed in driving vehicles, if we can release that using autonomous driving, the volume of labour available for other productive work is tremendous. This is only the tip of iceberg, AI, automation will have great impact in the world of work!

Don't worry about the reports by.....

1. Worsening outlook for 5% China but very positive outlook for 2% US or even minus 2% Germany. CNA pro angmoh ah ? Speaking English and shouting democracy suddenly sets CNA in a trance ? 2. In the 60s and 70s, population was a factor for economic growth. Not the case in 2024.

It's okay. Can raise GDP per Capita in china

Someone started this story and now it is in all the media? Why are they all so worried? Or, have they nothing better to report.

Actually anyone with basic knowledge , knew that you can't compare Apple to Orange. U$A and China GDP measurements are opposite for the majority data. U$A = Finance service/Banks/Wx11$treet (virtual) China = Factory /manufacturing (Physical) .

Reality hits..😊😊 The future is blur for china..😅😂

We are in a bit of bother, let's focus on China's problems so our people in Singapore feel better.

No concern for worry. China is not like the red dot.

Ya trying to tell the peasants importation of FT is good and locals should adjust to accommodate them

China has more than 14 Tri population in the world, second . Why you complaining about China birth rate. That's very stupid about birth rate.
