Reuters and Bloomberg with recaps on the data we've had from China today, beats for both retail sales and industrial production

Reuters:

  • After a rocky start to the year, China's economy has performed better than expected
  • Private investment remains weak, however, leaving economic growth more reliant on a steady stream of government spending, while the property market is showing signs of fatigue, raising fears that this year's momentum will not be sustainable.

Bloomberg:

  • China's economic stabilization held in November
  • Offering policy makers more room to switch focus away from stimulus and toward curbing financial risks
