1. Report Industry Investment Rating No information provided in the content. 2. Core View of the Report - Despite the impact of Sino - US trade frictions this year, China's exports have maintained resilience. From January to October 2025, the US - dollar - denominated export value increased by 5.30% year - on - year, higher than 5.21% in the same period last year. However, the export growth rate may decline slightly next year, with the annual export year - on - year growth rate expected to slow to around 2% and showing a trend of being lower in the first half and higher in the second half [1][3][8]. 3. Summary According to the Directory 3.1 Current Export Support Items - **Regional Perspective**: Amid trade frictions, China's export share to the US and Japan has decreased year by year, while the share to ASEAN, India, Russia, Africa, and Latin America has increased. From January to October 2025, exports to the US dragged down the overall export growth rate by 2.02 percentage points, while ASEAN, Africa, and the EU became the main drivers of export growth, with export growth rates of 14%, 26%, and 8% respectively, and export pulling rates of 2.51%, 1.52%, and 1.14% respectively [11]. - **Product Category Perspective**: Capital goods such as mechanical and electrical products, high - tech products, integrated circuits, automobiles (including chassis), ships, and mechanical equipment are the main categories driving export growth. From January to October 2025, exports of ships, integrated circuits, automobiles (including chassis), and liquid crystal flat - panel display modules achieved double - digit high growth. In contrast, exports of mobile phones, labor - intensive goods, and real - estate - related post - cycle goods showed negative growth, indicating a possible change in China's industrial structure [15]. 3.2 Reasons for Export Resilience 3.2.1 Enterprise Outbound Expansion Drives Exports - From January to October 2025, capital goods exports maintained a high growth rate, with ships and general mechanical equipment driving export growth by 0.4 and 0.1 percentage points respectively. There is a positive correlation between the year - on - year growth of listed companies' overseas revenues and exports, as well as between China's outward direct investment flow and total export year - on - year growth. From 2015 - 2024, the average annual compound growth rate of exports driven by outward investment was significantly higher than that of overall exports (7.6% vs 5.2%), with an average proportion of 5.7% in overall exports and an average pull of 0.7 percentage points on overall exports. Investment in different countries also corresponds to the growth rate differences of exports of different product types to these countries [2][21][27]. 3.2.2 Re - export Trade Affects Export Country Structure - During the trade friction, the US imposed significantly higher tariffs on China than on ASEAN countries, prompting Chinese enterprises to seek Southeast Asian re - export trade to avoid high tariffs. From 2018 - 2019 and during the current trade friction, China's exports to the US decreased significantly, while exports to ASEAN and US imports from ASEAN increased significantly, indicating that re - export trade may have offset the decline in exports to the US to some extent and supported the overall export growth rate [43]. 3.2.3 Demand Growth in Some Importing Countries Supports High Export Growth - Benefiting from the mild economic recovery in the EU, the EU's import growth rate has rebounded. Since the second half of 2024, driven by interest rate cuts, defense, and infrastructure investment, the EU's GDP growth rate has remained at around 1.5%, and the year - on - year growth rate of the industrial production index has been in the positive range since February 2025, driving the EU's import growth rate from - 5% in 2024 to 4% this year. Vietnam's GDP growth rate has continued to rise this year, with the cumulative GDP growth rate in the first three quarters reaching 7.85%. Investment and consumption have also maintained high growth rates, driving China's cumulative exports to Vietnam from January to October to increase by 22.3% year - on - year [47][50]. 3.2.4 Increase in China's Import Share in Africa and Other Regions - From 2019 - 2024, the average annual compound growth rate of Africa's imports was only 5%, but the average annual growth rate of Africa's imports from China reached 10%. China's share in Africa's imports increased from 17.1% in 2019 to 21.6% in 2024, with an average annual increase of 0.9 percentage points. The reasons for the share increase include large - scale infrastructure investment in Africa, high price competitiveness of Chinese export products, zero - tariff policies for 53 African countries, and successful market expansion by Chinese exporters [54]. 3.3 Export Outlook - Although exports have maintained resilience due to multiple factors, the export growth rate may decline slightly next year. The factors supporting export resilience may weaken, and the support for next year's exports may decrease. Using a fitting model to estimate next year's export growth rate, it is expected to slow to around 2% [3][59][62].
