Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the content Core Viewpoints - The high contribution rate of net exports to China's GDP in Q1 2025 does not mean high dependence on exports; instead, it is mainly due to import substitution [2][4] - China's exports may remain at a relatively high level in the second half of 2025, and the economy may be better than expected, leading to an upward movement in bond yields and the stock market [6][8] Summary by Relevant Catalogs China's Export Dependence - China's export-to-nominal GDP ratio is relatively low compared to most countries and historical levels. In 2023, it was 19% (ranked 130th), lower than South Korea (44%, ranked 56th), Germany (43%, ranked 62nd), France (34%, ranked 86th), and Japan (22%, ranked 120th). From 1970 - 2006, it trended upward, reaching a maximum of 35%; from 2007 - 2019, it trended downward, with a minimum of 17%; from 2020 - 2024, it rebounded slightly, ranging from 17 - 19% [3] Import Substitution - In Q1 2025, the high contribution rate of net exports to GDP (nearly 40%) was mainly due to a low import growth rate (-7%) rather than a high export growth rate (+5.7%). The low import growth is related to import substitution, which may continue for a long time due to China's complete industrial chain and high - cost - performance products. In June 2025, China maintained a high - export and low - import situation [4][5] Export Outlook - Due to the "global trade dynamic balance" and the "wide fiscal" policies of major economies, China's exports may remain relatively stable. As long as the US continues its loose fiscal policy, its total demand and imports will not decline significantly, and China's total exports will remain stable. "Anything But Bond" may become the dominant global strategy [6] Economic Expectations and Market Trends - Some market views believe that China's economy may face pressure in the second half of the year. However, considering the stable export situation, the economy in the second half of 2025 may be better than expected, leading to a correction in market expectations and an upward movement in bond yields and the stock market [7][8]
