China’s Q2 GDP Growth Slows to Over Three-Year Low
China's economy grew 4.3% in Q2 2026, its weakest quarterly growth in more than three years amid structural challenges.
New Delhi, July 15 (IANS) China’s GDP growth slowed further in the April-June period — weakest in more than three years — as the economy grapples with supply-demand imbalance and structural challenges, official data from Beijing showed on Wednesday.
GDP grew 4.3 per cent in the second quarter of 2026, according to data released by the National Bureau of Statistics in China. This is less than the official target range of 4.5-5 per cent.
“The economy ran within a reasonable range. There were many instabilities and uncertainties externally, and the supply-demand imbalance was prominent domestically,” said the Bureau in a statement.
