China’s Economy Outperforms Expectations in Q2 Amidst Growing Headwinds

Beijing today revealed that China’s economy expanded by 5.2% in the second quarter of 2025, exceeding analyst forecasts despite a backdrop of increasing domestic and global challenges. Data released this Tuesday by the National Bureau of Statistics indicated the growth for the April-June period, following a 5.4% increase in the first quarter.
This latest figure surpasses the 5.1% median forecast from economists surveyed by Bloomberg. While robust exports provided a critical boost, helping to offset a persistently sluggish consumer market at home, experts are cautioning that a more pronounced economic slowdown could be on the horizon, exacerbated by ongoing risks to global trade and weakening domestic demand.
