Chinese Stocks Were Mixed on May 15

Stocks and various factors

It is no secret that countries around the world are struggling to cope with issues related to coronavirus pandemic. Unfortunately, it is hard to determine, how long it will take to stabilize the global economy. Moreover, investors are closely monitoring the situation as they want to know what is going on with the economy of China. It was a tough day for Chinese stocks on Friday.

Recently, China’s National Bureau of Statistics released information regarding industrial profits. Interestingly, profits surpassed expectations. Last month, the country’s industrial output added 3.9% year-on-year. Notably, it was the first expansion in 2020 from China. Analysts expected the industrial output to increase by 1.5%.

Nevertheless, retail sales declined by 7.5% in April. Hopefully, China was able to restart its economy following lockdown measures. The coronavirus pandemic had a huge impact on the local economy as well as on the global economy. People should take into account that the world’s second-largest economy had to tackle numerous challenges due to the coronavirus pandemic.

Governments across the globe are willing to do whatever it takes to support the economy. Private and state organizations should work together to avert the worst-case scenario.
