China's import and export value in Q3 2026 achieved a year-over-year growth rate of 19.2%. Although this is a slight pullback from the 24.2% recorded in the previous Q2 2026, the overall performance remains strong and beats market consensus. Benefiting from global AI infrastructure demand and the front-loading effect in response to potential tariffs, both the import and export sides of the technology and automotive sectors jumped simultaneously. In the short term, trade is expected to maintain relatively high levels, but in the medium term, caution is needed against downside risks from exhausted future demand and the actual implementation of tariffs.
