Them safe as coronavirus numbers drugs. The one welcome to the Program Reach a figures in china fell for the 7th month in a row as the pandemic continues to affect Consumer Spending in the country where the crisis began purchases of goods and services fell more than one percent year on year in july thats worse than expected however the countrys industrial output jumped on you to 5 percent compared with last year the government has stimulus money into this sector to get it moving again. For more lets bring in Katherine Young of Fidelity International hong kong and our financial correspondent. In frankfurt bunkum to both of you catherine let me start with you Chinese Consumers still cautious whats behind that. Interestingly when we do look at the demand side of the chinese consumption story there are pockets which are in fact doing quite well so for example the also 6 especially the Premium Brands like b. M. W. Lexus seeing increased incidentals but as you rightly pointed out its not across the entire consumption and Services Sector so probably going to see some more tweaking when it comes to policy just to ensure that the mom does pick up. And thats a frankfurt our markets is reacting to these things. But actually they are not reacting very positively obviously the Chinese Consumer is paramount also for companies in the past such as make as 5th been hearing from the likes of but also apple recently that they actually do see a optic in demand in china and they have been trading off bad news so i guess we need to have more ways ability in my clarity how the chinese consumption started a lot of fold kasserine it is not only consumers that have been cautious the factory sector is also struggling to gain real momentum how much of a threat are these factors to chinas recovery well in terms of usual is ation rates we did see them go back up to 8090 percent levels at the end of the 1st quarter in fact each line zation is looking somewhat attractive more attractive than as weve just been talking about the consumer 6 we look at china as a whole there in the markets and using 3 dr this isnt the flattening of the code because the pace and sustainability of an economic recovery and indeed policy implementation direction china for us still gets 6 in all 3 categories or prongs and in fact we still think that over the longer term medium 7 short term from an absolute and relative perspective china is still going to do very very well this is others so it catherine is china going to be the main economy to pull the World Economy out of this pandemic slump. I dont think its going to be like what we saw in 2008 where we saw such large amounts of stimulus being thrown into the chinese economy and as such that you know underpins a Global Recovery what we are mindful of is that the export decided that the global to minority might not even come to the levels we have seen in china and of course jim politics is also weighing on investors minds so in china we are now hearing about this jewel circulation policy which is about really ensuring the consumption story picks up domestic demand but also ensuring theres no not too much destruction on its journey in terms of chinas supply. And thats a better year for inferred what are markets expecting needs to be done to prop up growth in china. Where markets always like most analysts buy they remains to be seen whether we get more for now one can also argue that the chinese stimulus package its not so much a whats the consumer more towards the industry because its mainly focusing on Infrastructure Spending and actually if you look and dash of production and the fact that from that fear of the economy it rather looks like a we shaped recovery not so much when it comes to Consumer Spending so i guess for now we are not going to get more stimulus out of china just on the back of that kind of week we. Say is that the market is now actually looking to the United States because here we are expecting some agreement on more stimulus and also today later on we are going to get the retail Sales Numbers for the month of july babis where the market is actually now focusing on and cover back to you in hong kong this sort of 2 track path were consumption might be not able to keep up with the rebound in other economic sectors is that a likely scenario of how the World Economy is to recover as well. A likely scenario if the will of the dome to get from a policy perspective that p. B. S. Is still has a large toolset so they are tweaking this sort of bucking the trend of other Central Banks in terms of starting everything situation at once i dont get the chinese households still remember the bus in terms of the savings rate and so in general its just ensuring that that pent up demand story does unfold its ensuring that with all countries that there is a healthy labor market people there for that is in the jobs they certainly are going to spend cousin yang in hong kong on a device but in frankfurt many thanks to both of you.
