TOUS 4789 Chine une croissance de 4 5 pourcent portee par les exportations malgre une demande interieure faible

The Chinese economy grew by 4.5% year-on-year in the third quarter of 2026, exceeding forecasts after 4.3% growth in the previous quarter. This performance was largely driven by exports of technology products, electric vehicles, and semiconductors. However, domestic consumption remains fragile, hampered by the housing crisis and cautious spending by households. Beijing also faces pressure from its trading partners, particularly in Europe, who criticize the trade imbalance with China.
