China's Economic Dual-Track Strategy

Amid global energy challenges and shifting trade dynamics, China is implementing a dual-track strategy to stabilize its economy. This includes enhancing domestic supply chains and expediting renewable energy projects, while seeking targeted dialogues with the U.S. on energy cooperation. Although the approach aims to fortify China’s global market position, ongoing issues regarding labor practices and trade investigations create a backdrop of moderate risk. Previous anxieties over consumer sentiment and investor confidence persist as indicators like refinery output will be critical in shaping future economic engagements.
