China's Economic Growth Slows Amid Sputtering Domestic Demand

China's economy has been supported by exports, which have offset weak consumer spending AFP China's economic growth slipped below five percent in the third quarter of 2025, the slowest pace in a year as trade headwinds and a domestic consumer slump continued to weigh. The data comes as the country's ruling Communist Party kicks off a closely watched four-day meeting in Beijing focused on long-term economic planning. It also comes ahead of in-person discussions later this month between top Chinese and US trade officials -- as well as a potential meeting between presidents Donald Trump and Xi Jinping.
