Donald Trump

<p>The Chinese economy is experiencing a worrying slowdown, despite recent stimulus measures introduced by the Xi Jinping government. Drastic decisions have not been enough to reverse the trend, and it is likely that billions of additional yuans will need to be injected to counter the crisis. Meanwhile, the National People’s Congress is busy developing a recovery plan with significant repercussions for the Chinese economy, pending the outcome of the American presidential election.</p> 
<h2 id="h-le-defi-economique-chinois-entre-relance-et-incertitudes">The Chinese economic challenge: between recovery and uncertainties</h2> 
<p>China is facing <strong>significant economic challenges</strong>, far beyond just real estate issues. Despite <a href="https://www.cointribune.com/en/china-the-new-support-measures-deemed-unacceptable-is-the-worst-to-be-feared/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><strong>several measures</strong> <strong>deemed unacceptable</strong></a> such as interest rate cuts and loosening restrictions on home purchases, the markets remain skeptical.</p>

Analysts hope to see this plan include <strong>massive investments</strong>, particularly to support local communities and banks struggling with non-performing loans.</p>

<p>The three priorities of this economic recovery seem obvious:</p> 
<ul> 
 <li><strong>Strengthening support for heavily indebted local communities;</strong></li> 
 <li><strong>Injecting 1 trillion yuan in aid to banks to stabilize the financial sector;</strong></li> 
 <li><strong>Encouraging consumption by restoring confidence among Chinese households.</strong></li> 
</ul> 
<p>However, challenges remain: <a href="https://www.cointribune.com/en/can-beijing-really-prevent-the-collapse-of-its-real-estate-market/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">the real estate market is at a standstill</a>, households prefer to save, and public debt continues to rise. <strong>An additional budget is therefore expected</strong> to give a boost to the economy, but uncertainties remain high regarding the effectiveness of this recovery.</p>

<h2 id="h-crise-immobiliere-et-effets-de-la-politique-etrangere-americaine">Real estate crisis and effects of American foreign policy</h2> 
<p>The real estate crisis weighs heavily on the Chinese economy. Since the <strong>tightening of credit conditions in 2020</strong>, construction sites in China have multiplied, without completing initial projects, devaluing real estate assets. This depreciation discourages households from investing in property, while <strong>housing prices continue to fluctuate</strong>.</p> 
<p>To revive this vital sector, Beijing recently announced an <strong>increase in credits to complete unfinished projects</strong>. Although real estate prices are showing some signs of recovery, consumer confidence in China remains fragile.</p>

<p>Simultaneously, <strong>the American election also influences Beijing’s strategy</strong>. A victory for Donald Trump could increase the <a href="https://www.cointribune.com/en/trump-ready-to-surrender-to-china/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">pressure on China</a>, with the <strong>threat of higher tariffs</strong> on Chinese exports.</p> 
<p>In this context, economists estimate that China may be forced to further strengthen its recovery plan to cushion against possible external shocks. According to economist Ting Lu, <strong>if Trump were to win the election, the magnitude of assistance could increase by 10 to 20%</strong> to counter an unfavorable American economic situation.</p>

<p>Let us not forget that China’s political decisions can <a href="https://www.cointribune.com/en/economy-china-is-reshaping-the-global-order/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">reshape the global economy</a>, and its current choices could have lasting effects on the overall economic balance.</p>
