Escalating and sustained trade conflicts following U.S. tariff actions threaten to derail economic recovery and depress medium-term growth prospects, the International Monetary Fund warned. Its retail sales of consumer goods grew 9% year on year in June, accelerating from the 8.5% rise seen in May.
In the first half of the year, the retail sales expanded 9.4% year on year to reach 18 trillion yuan, compared with a 9.5% growth the same period last year. The US retail sales in June rose 0.5% from May as households boosted purchases of automobiles and a range of other goods, cementing expectations for robust economic growth in the second quarter.
The key development today is the release of US industrial production data for June.
