China state planner lays out further actions to boost economy but no new plans for major stimulus

China’s National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC) Chairman, Zheng Shanjie, recently outlined a series of measures aimed at boosting the country’s economy during a press conference. While investors were eagerly anticipating major stimulus plans, Zheng fell short of announcing any new significant initiatives, causing a slight disappointment in the mainland Chinese markets.

One of the key actions mentioned by Zheng was the acceleration of special purpose bond issuance to local governments to support regional economic growth. He also highlighted the deployment of ultra-long special sovereign bonds worth 1 trillion yuan to fund local projects, with plans to continue issuing such bonds in the coming year.

Additionally, the central government is set to release a 100 billion yuan investment plan for the next year ahead of schedule, signaling a proactive approach to economic support. However, the lack of new stimulus measures led to a slowdown in the Chinese market rally post the Golden Week holiday.

Yue Su, a principal economist at the Economist Intelligence Unit, expressed that the absence of specific figures in Zheng’s speech may not necessarily be negative, as China’s pro-growth policy stance remains intact. She maintained her growth forecast for China at 4.7% for this year and 4.8% for 2025, while suggesting the possibility of additional fiscal support ranging from 1 trillion to 3 trillion yuan to stimulate the real economy.

Shaun Rein, a partner and managing director at China Market Research Group, warned that without substantial fiscal stimulus with detailed plans, the market rally could lose momentum. He emphasized that many Western investors had high expectations for a massive stimulus announcement, and the lack thereof may lead to profit-taking.

Recent signals from China’s top leaders indicated a sense of urgency in addressing the prolonged economic downturn and meeting the annual growth target of around 5%. Before the Golden Week holiday, authorities had emphasized the need to strengthen fiscal and monetary policy support, unveiling various stimulus measures to stabilize the property market.

The Chinese economy had faced challenges in the first half of the year, with slower growth rates and disappointing economic indicators. Despite meeting the central government’s target of 5.0% growth in the first half, GDP growth in the second quarter fell short of expectations at 4.7%, marking the slowest growth since 2023.

Economic data such as the consumer price index, factory activity, and PMI readings have also shown signs of weakness, indicating a need for continued policy adjustments. Zheng reiterated the government’s commitment to strengthening macroeconomic policies and addressing the challenges ahead to achieve the expected growth targets.

In conclusion, while the recent announcements by the NDRC chairman fell short of market expectations for major stimulus plans, China’s focus on supporting economic growth through targeted measures and ongoing policy adjustments remains a key priority. Investors will closely monitor future developments to gauge the impact on the Chinese economy and market dynamics.
