China's industrial growth accelerated in April driven by robust exports but softening growth in retail sales and fixed asset investment reflects an uneven economic recovery necessitating more efforts from the part of the government to achieve the official growth target. Industrial production registered an annual increase of 6.7% after rising 4.5% in March, the National Bureau of Statistics reported. This was also a better than the expected growth of 5.5%. By contrast, retail sales growth slowed to 2.3% from 3.1% a month ago and remained weaker than the 3.8% expected rise. From January to April, fixed asset investment expanded at a slower pace of 4.2% from the previous year, following an increase of 4.5% during the January to March period. Economists had forecast a faster increase of 4.6%. Real estate investment declined 9.8% in the first four months of 2024. Fixed asset investment is widely expected to improve with the issuance of CNY 1 trillion special long term government bonds today that is intended to fund strategic projects. 05/17/2024 - 08:08:00 (RTTNews)
