China, the strongest economy in the world, has set a GDP growth target of around 5% for 2025. The growth target has been set at the same level for a third year running. China’s prime minister Li Qiang said in the report to the annual session of the country’s top legislature that a target of around 5% is well aligned with China’s mid- and long-term development goals.
Is 5% achievable? A short answer is yes. While conditions within the world’s second-largest economy are steadily improving, the recovery remains uneven, given the still low level of consumer confidence, ongoing

We are only into the third month of 2025, but a lot of major changes have taken place. For one, Donald Trump’s presidency is causing great turmoil around the world. His tariffs have angered many countries, which have vowed or launched retaliations. His policies on Ukraine and the Western European countries are a complete change from his predecessor, creating great uncertainty on the European continent and the Western world. These could have long-term negative repercussions. Before that, the release of DeepSeek’s R1 AI model in Jan has shocked the conceited Western world and intensified competition between US and China. Stubbornly high US inflation rate has led the US Federal Reserve to pause its rate-cutting plan, with no clear sign of when will be its next move. US stocks have lost their lustre while Chinese stocks are now the main attraction.
