China's latest general trade surplus for Q3 2026 (2026-08-01) reached USD 67.92 billion, significantly widening from the USD 59.68 billion in the previous period (2026-07-01), indicating a continued recovery in foreign trade momentum. Benefiting from global AI infrastructure construction demand and the "rush to export" effect ahead of potential US tariffs, semiconductors and high-tech products have become the main drivers of exports. Although the momentum of domestic demand recovery remains to be seen, strong external demand is expected to continue supporting China's economic performance in the short term.
