China achieves a 5.0% GDP growth rate, meeting its annual target.
The United States has initiated a massive Section 301 investigation targeting 16 major trading partners, including the EU, China, India, and Taiwan, over alleged unfair trade practices. This unprecedented move signals a significant escalation in global trade tensions, threatening to disrupt technology supply chains and increase costs for cross-border venture investments.
Beijing has lowered its 2026 GDP growth target to a range of 4.5% to 5%, signaling a tolerance for slower expansion in favor of structural reforms. The move, detailed in the 15th Five-Year Plan, prioritizes high-tech innovation and industrial upgrading over broad-based consumer stimulus.
