China’s economic landscape is undergoing shifts as recent data reveals a complex scenario of growth and challenges. While the real gross domestic product (GDP) expanded by 5.2% in 2023, meeting the government’s target, the dollar-denominated nominal GDP experienced a decline for the first time in 29 years. Additionally, China’s share of the global economy has decreased for the second consecutive year.

Despite Chinese Premier Li Qiang’s positive outlook at the World Economic Forum, concerns linger about the strength of China’s post-pandemic recovery. The manufacturing sector’s performance, as indicated by the purchasing managers’ index, has remained below the crucial threshold of 50 since April, signaling persistent challenges.

The real estate sector, a key pillar of the economy, has faced a significant downturn, with existing home prices in 70 major cities declining in December. Real estate development investment marked its second consecutive annual decrease, reflecting challenges in the housing market.

Consumer spending recovery has been sluggish, attributed to tepid private-sector corporate earnings and limited household income growth. Notably, China’s nominal GDP growth lagged behind real GDP for the first time in eight years, indicating rising deflationary pressures.

Economists are drawing attention to the risk of a “Japanification” of China’s economy, comparing some indicators to Japan’s prolonged economic stagnation after a burst asset-price bubble.

Furthermore, China’s influence on the global economy may be plateauing. The dollar-denominated nominal GDP saw a 0.5% dip in 2023, the first decline since 1994. This decline, coupled with the yuan’s depreciation against the dollar amid U.S. interest rate hikes, contributes to concerns about China’s economic trajectory.

China’s share of global GDP also decreased to 16.9% in 2023, down from the peak of 18.3% in 2021. This decline is more substantial than the drop observed during the latter half of the Cultural Revolution.

The longer-term outlook raises questions about China’s ability to sustain the rapid growth seen over the past two decades. A labor shortage resulting from a rapidly aging population poses a challenge, with the population declining for a second consecutive year in 2023. The working-age population is also decreasing, prompting the need for more substantial measures to stimulate growth.

Economists like Toru Nishihama and Atsushi Takeda emphasize the potential global impact, with a slowdown in China’s growth rate potentially dragging down global economic growth through reduced trade.

As China faces demographic challenges and emerging markets gain prominence, businesses are urged to consider diversifying strategies beyond China to navigate the evolving global economic landscape.
