Little changed on Friday after the latest economic data out of China showed that the country still faces growth headwinds, though the severity may be easing.<\/p>\n<div class=\"paywall\">\n<p>The Chinese consumer price index (CPI) was flat on an annual basis in September. This was short of expectations of 0.2% growth according to economists surveyed by FactSet, and exhibited deflation from August\u2019s 0.1% print. The producer price index (PPI) measure of inflation fell 2.5%, worse than expectations of a 2.3% decline but still picking up from a 3% slide in August.<\/p>\n<p>Chinese imports\u2014an important barometer for domestic demand\u2014tumbled 6.2% on an annual basis last month, below expectations of just a 6% decrease but an improvement from August\u2019s 7.3% decline. Chinese exports, which can signal global demand for Chinese goods, also fell 6.2%, not as bad as the 8.3% decrease expected and a stark improvement from the 8.8% drop in August.<\/p>\n<p>There are signs of some improvement in the data, but \u201cthe Chinese economy could certainly do with some help if today\u2019s September economic numbers are any guide,\u201d said Michael Hewson, an analyst at broker<br \/>\n        CMC Markets<span>.<\/span><br \/>\n       \u201cThere has been little indication that the Chinese economy is close to achieving a significant pickup in economic activity \u2026 imports have fallen for every month this year highlighting the challenges facing the Chinese government in stimulating domestic demand.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The reaction in the stock market was clear, at least. Hong Kong\u2019s<br \/>\n        Hang Seng Index<br \/>\n       retreated 2.3%, snapping a six-day winning streak that was the benchmark\u2019s longest since late 2021.<br \/>\n        Alibaba<br \/>\n       shares declined 0.9% in U.S. premarket trading.<br \/>\n        LVMH<br \/>\n       stock shed 0.6% in Paris.<\/p>\n<p>Gloom continues to hang over the country\u2019s economy, to say nothing of the risk of a financial crisis in its indebted property sector. While there remain reasons to be bullish on Chinese stocks, the latest data seem to have investors saying \u201cnot just yet.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Write to Jack Denton at jack.denton@barrons.com<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Read the full article <a href=\"https:\/\/www.marketwatch.com\/articles\/china-economy-stocks-alibaba-27693016?mod=markets\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Yet another round of grim Chinese economic data, yet another day of declines for China-exposed stocks.
