4:18 pm
economy right now? so 1st of all, we have to understand that the consumer price is an important decatur of inflation rate. so the july figure in a china fill and become negative for the 1st time in more than 2 years, is this fact in the case that a china is sliding into the ration. as many experts said that this means that consumers in china still pay for saving to spending. so business have to, you know, cut prices to sell their products. but this creates a visual circle. dagwoods deter, telling us because all makes growth. because this, when business is revenue is decreasing, they would probably with the base thoughts too late of workers to reduce your costs . and, but let, the good news is like some experts say that china will not probably, you know, follow the path of japan, which has seen like
4:19 pm
a more severe deflation that lots of nearly a decade. so and some experts say that china simulation will only last 6 to 12 months. so that is kind of good news. and amid this, you know, economics downtown, at the same time, this news, this drop and consumer demand, this comes on top of some other weak indicators, especially when you look at over all or overseas demand, i should say for chinese goods, those numbers down, we saw the export numbers were very weak. are they came out yesterday and now in port numbers, of course we're also very weak that matches up with this consumer, this fall and consumer demand that we see today. bridging can't do much about those that weaker overseas demand, but what can it do about domestic demand? is there any way that it can help prop that up? it's well actually it's really hard to tell at this point because like many reports said that some local economics are either not allowed to, you know, public and share that there is a deflation in china. but we can see that
4:20 pm
a lot over the past few months, china has been working hard on boost consumption by imposing some stimulus funds, for example, last month of aging issue 20 measure to boast, consumption. and even like in the real estate industry, a local governments across different cities has in post on, you know, tax rebates and cash subs subsidies to encourage home purchases. but so far like the effect has not been you know, as you know, effective as we like to document excess. so it's like a lot of, you know, kind of summer goes as you mentioned, especially in like closing and food in the industry. so has been hit hard so we still have to wait and see like what the chinese government would do, you know, for the next step of the gene was expected to really war out of the pen demik coming out of those terrible restrictions were we expecting to see a lot more of a,
4:21 pm
a resilient economy and we're not, what does this mean for the rest of the world, which we, as we know is highly dependent upon trade with china. it's well because these um, you know, um, disappointed figures represent like a like china cuz normally the recovery is still pretty sluggish. so it's kind of a 1st rate, the confidence of the stock market around the world. and as you also mentioned like yesterday, they also have really bad trade seekers in july, the exports figures sale over sold by over 14 percent year on year. so we kind of shows that china is not only facing a domestic slowdown. so also like a weakness in global demand, because like the west is also like socially monitoring, watch, china can offer and also because there were between us and china. so like the see man for imports from china is also meeting right. the trade war,
