China reported a monthly trade surplus of $125.6 billion while second-quarter GDP rose 4.3% year over year. According to NS3.AI, growth slowed from 5.0% in the first quarter and came in below the 4.5% economists had expected.

Official data also pointed to weak domestic demand. Real-estate development investment fell 18% in the first half, highlighting continued pressure in the property sector. Investors are now watching the late-July Politburo meeting for clues on China’s next policy direction.
