According to DataTrack data, China's cumulative ordinary trade imports and exports for the first three quarters of 2026 reached 23.94 trillion RMB, a slight increase of 1.25% compared to the same period last year. The performance in September alone was strong, reversing the year-on-year decline of the previous 8 months in one fell swoop. Exports mainly benefited from the AI super cycle and the advanced "rush to export" effect, while imports were primarily dominated by inventory stockpiling of production components.
