Deep dives
China's Stimulus Shift
China's Politburo is pursuing a more forceful stimulus approach as it anticipates a challenging economic landscape in 2025. This marks a significant shift from a decade of restrictive policies, reflecting concerns about deflation and slowed economic growth. The commitment to a 'moderately loose monetary policy' aims to reverse the trend and provide necessary support for the economy. This decision appears timely, considering China's geopolitical tension with the U.S. and the necessity to stabilize its economy against external pressures.
