We are very confident in achieving the expected target of GDP growth of around 5% for the whole year.
Sheng Laiyun said that data shows that in the first three quarters, GDP grew by 5.2% year-on-year, which laid a very good foundation for achieving the expected target of about 5% for the whole year.
In the first three quarters, per capita service consumption expenditure of Chinese residents increased by 14.2% year-on-year.
Sheng Laiyun introduced that in the first three quarters of this year, my country’s residents’ per capita service consumption expenditure increased by 14.2% year-on-year, accounting for 46.1% of residents’ per capita consumption expenditure, a significant increase of 2 percentage points from the same period last year.
Residential consumption will continue to recover in the fourth quarter
Sheng Laiyun said that household consumption will continue to recover in the fourth quarter. China has a relatively large consumption potential and a relatively large population. In addition, China is at a critical stage of upgrading its consumption structure. As the economy continues to recover, China’s overall consumption trend will be positive. It needs to be emphasized that cultivating consumption capacity is the key. We must continue to promote economic stability and improvement, continue to increase residents’ income, and ensure that the basic role of consumption and the advantages of scale can be fully utilized.
The industrial economy continued to recover, stabilized and rebounded in the first three quarters.
Sheng Laiyun said that judging from the situation in the first three quarters of this year, the industrial economy is continuing to recover and is stabilizing. In the first three quarters, the cumulative added value of industrial enterprises above designated size increased by 4%, and in the third quarter it increased by 4.2%. In August and September, the industrial added value continued to grow month-on-month. In September, the added value of industrial enterprises above designated size grew by 4.5% year-on-year.
The continued release of real estate optimization policies has positive effects
Sheng Laiyun said that from last year to this year, the Party Central Committee and the State Council attached great importance to it and introduced a series of optimization policies to stabilize real estate. The implementation of the policy has a process, and judging from the preliminary implementation, there are still positive effects. Sheng Laiyun said that real estate investment continues to decline, but the decline is narrowing. In addition, from the simple calculation of some data in September, the month-on-month improvement is improving. For example, the sales area of commercial housing in September was negative 10.2%, but it was an improvement of 2 percentage points from August. The decline in the area of newly started real estate construction also narrowed in September, and narrowed significantly. According to the data on commercial housing transaction volume in 70 large and medium-sized cities in September, the total data of new and second-hand houses turned positive in September, with a month-on-month increase of 2.8%. It turned positive for the first time since April after five consecutive months of decline. Sheng Laiyun said that judging from these indicator data, we believe that the optimization policy effect of real estate is continuing to be released and has a positive effect. Of course, there is still a process for the implementation of this policy, because after all, the real estate industry is in an adjustment stage in general, so the implementation of the policy must be implemented in the later period.
