China's consumption further consolidated in the first half of this year as domestic demand firmed up while restrictions hampering travel and buying activities were gradually removed, which helped modify consumers' buying habits in the aftermath of the initial outbreaks of the COVID-19 epidemic, experts said.
Data released by the National Bureau of Statistics on Thursday showed that China's retail sales of consumer goods jumped 23 percent year-on-year in the first half of this year, with two-year average growth standing at 4.4 percent, 0.2 percentage point higher than that in the first quarter.
