中诚信袁海霞：五大积极因素支撑2026年中国经济增速

Core Viewpoint - The economic growth target for 2026 is likely to be set around 5%, but due to insufficient demand and investment constraints, the projected GDP growth rate is estimated at 4.8% under a neutral assumption [3][4]. Group 1: Positive Factors Supporting Economic Recovery - The first positive factor is the tactical easing of the US-China trade tensions, which is expected to provide resilience for exports in 2026, particularly as the US approaches its midterm elections [4]. - The second factor is the early implementation of major projects in the first year of the 14th Five-Year Plan, with infrastructure investment expected to be a primary driver [4]. - The third factor involves the delayed effects of policy deployments from the end of this year, which are anticipated to manifest in early 2026, particularly in fiscal policy [5]. - The fourth factor is the ongoing effects of anti-involution governance, which may lead to a moderate recovery in PPI and CPI [6]. - The fifth factor is the demand potential from the new urbanization initiative, which is expected to release significant consumption and investment opportunities [6]. Group 2: Fiscal and Monetary Policy Directions - Fiscal policy is expected to play a supportive role, with a proposed increase in the deficit ratio to 4.5%-5% for 2026, and a broad deficit scale exceeding 16 trillion [7]. - In terms of monetary policy, a supportive stance is anticipated, with expectations for one interest rate cut and 1-2 reserve requirement ratio reductions in 2026 [8].
