China’s 2024 growth meets official 5% target on stimulus bump
China’s economy achieved its annual growth target of 5% for 2024, helped by a late-year stimulus and boosted exports before US tariffs. Industrial production surged by 6.2% in December, though domestic demand remained weak with modest retail sales growth and rising unemployment. Further fiscal measures are expected to support the economy amid external challenges.
