Group 1 - The core viewpoint emphasizes that consolidating the trend of economic stabilization requires fundamentally changing people's perception of the relative prices of consumption and savings, rather than reverting to traditional investment-driven models or continuing to stimulate consumption [1][3]. - The current economic push requires addressing the shortcomings in consumption, as highlighted by the July CPI data showing a year-on-year growth of 0% and a core CPI increase of 0.8%, indicating marginal economic improvement [2][3]. - Experts argue that consumption-driven economic growth is not feasible, as stimulating consumption does not directly alter consumer preferences and demand elasticity without changing the relative prices of consumption and savings [2][3]. Group 2 - Economic stimulus policies have rarely focused on consumption, as the effectiveness of such policies depends on aligning the preferences of policymakers and consumers to realize the multiplier effect of consumption [3][4]. - The need for social security and healthcare reforms is urgent to stabilize people's future uncertainties, which can be achieved through tax reforms and enhancing the pension system [4]. - Market-oriented reforms and the establishment of a unified national market are essential to provide more freedom for market participants, which can lead to improved investment returns and economic stability [4][5]. Group 3 - These reforms are expected to significantly alter the demand elasticity of the economy, making consumption a true driving force for economic growth [5]. - The government should shift towards a governance model focused on public services to create a fair competitive economic order, allowing collective intelligence from market participants to emerge and drive economic progress [6].

Group 1 - The consumer price index has not met expectations, currently at -0.1%, making it unlikely to achieve the 2% target set in the report, which is already lower than last year's 3% target [2] - Achieving the 2% target is crucial, especially in 2025, as it will be a significant year due to an unprecedented tariff war that will reshape the economy's reliance on external demand [3] - The macroeconomic strategy involves stimulating domestic consumption to counteract the effects of the tariff war, emphasizing the need for a strong internal market to avoid factory closures and unemployment [3] Group 2 - The challenge lies in boosting consumer spending, with strategies including lowering deposit rates and providing consumption subsidies, but market reactions have been tepid, leading to concerns among scholars [5] - Direct cash distribution to consumers is suggested as a more effective method to stimulate spending, allowing consumers to dictate market resource allocation rather than pushing them to buy surplus products [5][9] - The lack of positive expectations is a significant barrier to consumption and investment, with banks holding vast amounts of deposits due to a pessimistic outlook on the private economy and structural issues in income distribution [7] Group 3 - The most effective consumption stimulus policy is direct cash distribution combined with improving expectations, aiming to reduce household debt and promote consumption upgrades [9] - Addressing insufficient domestic demand is critical, especially in the context of the tariff war, as failure to do so could lead to ongoing economic risks [9]
