Quick Glance: China's Economy Disappoints Investors Despite Acceleration in Q1
  • Financial markets have raised concerns about China's economy, but Wall Street is missing the big picture.

  • Growth in the world's second largest economy accelerated to 4.5% in Q1 from 2.9% in Q4.

  • However, recent data suggests slowing growth in retail sales, home sales, industrial production, and fixed-asset investment.
