China’s economy is showing signs of weakness, with deteriorating domestic indicators and a reported slump in investment adding pressure on policymakers to increase stimulus spending.
The developments were reported by the Financial Times, which said the weakening domestic picture was raising pressure for greater government support.
The supplied report does not provide figures for the investment decline or identify the indicators that have deteriorated.
It also does not specify which policymakers are under pressure or what form any additional stimulus spending could take.
