China's growth has moderated somewhat, with a shifting composition. Gross Domestic Product (GDP) growth declined from 10.6 percent in the first half to a still surprisingly strong 9.6 percent (yoy) in the third quarter. The domestic economy cooled as the stimulus impact is fading out and the monetary stance is being normalized. Investment and urban consumption have decelerated, and so have imports. Meanwhile, with exports strong, net external trade has contributed significantly to (yoy) growth and the external surplus is rising again. The Results Based Management (RMB) has appreciated somewhat against the US dollar recently, although not in effective terms. Despite an expected deceleration, global growth prospects are fairly favorable due to emerging market strength. But risks include a weaker outlook in high income countries and ample international liquidity as well as the global imbalances and possibly contentious policies triggered by them. Global price pressures remain contained by spare capacity in many countries. But there are upward inflation risks internationally. Show Less Show less abstract text
