China's economy grew by 5.2% in the last quarter despite a slowdown due to President Trump's trade war. Analysts suggest actual growth may be lower, with fixed asset investments rising only 2.8%. Exports increased by 5.8% in June, aided by a pause in high tariffs. However, a decline in consumer prices indicates ongoing domestic demand issues, compounded by an aging population and a real estate crisis. The government aims for a 5% growth target this year, but potential new tariffs could threaten recovery.
