上半年GDP同比增长5.3% 机构关注下半年三大主线

Core Viewpoint - The Chinese economy is projected to face increasing pressure on demand due to tariffs, real estate challenges, and limited fiscal capacity, necessitating stronger counter-cyclical policies in the second half of 2025 [1][3]. Economic Growth Contributions - In the first half of the year, final consumption expenditure contributed 52% to GDP growth, capital formation contributed 16.8%, and net exports contributed 31.2% [2]. - The contribution of final consumption expenditure slightly increased to 52.3% in the second quarter, indicating that domestic demand, particularly consumption, is the main driver of GDP growth [2]. Fiscal and Monetary Policy - The focus for the second half of the year will be on reducing reserve requirements and interest rates, expanding domestic demand, and supporting a recovery in the real estate market [3][4]. - The report suggests utilizing public budget funds and considering the issuance of an additional 2.3 trillion yuan in government bonds to meet fiscal spending targets [3]. Consumer Promotion Strategies - There is an urgent need to promote consumption as the U.S. global tariffs may negatively impact Chinese exports, potentially leading to a shift from positive to negative net export contributions [5]. - Proposed measures to boost consumption include issuing long-term special bonds and increasing support for trade-in programs, with a broader scope to include general consumer goods and services [5]. Real Estate Market Recovery - To facilitate a quicker recovery in the real estate market, both demand and supply sides need to be addressed, including potential measures such as relaxing purchase restrictions and providing subsidies for low-income homebuyers [5].
