- Sectors like manufacturing and services experienced growth, while construction saw declines due to bad weather.
- Recent months of economic growth suggest the recession may soon come to an end, although pressure from the cost of living crisis and higher prices persists for households and businesses.
- Despite the positive growth in 2024, GDP remains below 2023 levels and has been stagnant since early 2022, with real wages continuing to decrease and many facing financial difficulties.

reuters.com/markets/asia/analyst-comments-after-fitch-downgrades-china-rating-outlook-2024-04-10/
Quick Glance: Fitch lowers China's rating outlook due to economic uncertainty
- Fitch cut its outlook on China's sovereign credit rating to negative on Wednesday, citing risks to public finances arising from the increasing uncertainty in the economy's transition to new growth models.
- The outlook downgrade follows a similar move by Moody's in December and coincides with Beijing's efforts to boost a weak post-COVID recovery in the world's second-largest economy with fiscal and monetary support.
- It is projected that China's explicit central and local government debt will increase to 61.3% of gross domestic product (GDP) in 2024 from 56.1% in 2023 - a significant deterioration from 38.5% in 2019.
- Despite cautious signs of improvement in China's economy, the ratings warning is issued. The planned issuance of treasury bonds indicates Beijing's readiness to take on a greater share of the responsibility in meeting growth targets, while local governments struggle with slower fiscal revenues and subdued land sales.
