BEIJING - China’s industrial output grew 6.3% in June from a year earlier, official data showed on Monday, picking up from May’s 17-year low and handily beating market expectations.Fixed-asset investments for the first half of the year rose 5.8% from a year earlier, according to data published by the National Bureau of Statistics, compared with a 5.5% rise forecast by analysts.
Private sector investment in fixed assets, which make up 60% of the country’s total investments, rose 5.7% in January-June, compared with a 5.3% rise in January-May. Retail sales for June rose 9.8% in annual terms. Analysts had expected growth to cool to 8.3% from May’s 8.6%. China’s trading partners and investors are closely watching the health of the world’s second-largest economy as the year-long Sino-U.S. trade war takes a heavier toll on businesses and investment, fuelling worries of a global recession.

These CCP-approved figures are obviously suspect. However, living in China, I have seen nothing to make me think the economy is under strain.
These numbers are about as credible as Trump when he claims he has proof President Obama wasn't born in America.

realDonaldTrump your trade war and tariffs are only hurting Americans.
Except that no one trusts their numbers

Nice shot.
