Foreign media: Despite the slowdown in fourth-quarter growth, China's economy is still expected to achieve its 2025 growth target.

China's economy is expected to grow by 4.9% in 2025, close to the official target of around 5%, but GDP growth in the fourth quarter may fall to 4.4%.

China's economy showed strong resilience in 2025, partly due to lower-than-expected U.S. tariffs and exporters shifting to non-U.S. markets. However, economic growth in 2026 faces challenges from trade tensions and structural imbalances.

China's manufacturing sector drove economic growth in 2025, with a record trade surplus.
