China: Value-Added Industrial Output - Accumulated YoY

Macro

2026-05-18

Description

China: Value-Added Industrial Output is compiled and published by the National Bureau of Statistics of China (NBS of China). This indicator measures the cumulative growth rate of industrial added value compared to the same period last year, serving as an important gauge of the performance and health of China's industrial sector. The industrial sector is a significant component of China's overall economic growth. A higher annual growth rate indicates strong industrial performance, while a lower or negative growth rate may suggest a slowdown or contraction in industrial growth.

Industrial added value is calculated by aggregating the added value of all large-scale industrial enterprises. The cumulative annual growth rate is derived by comparing the current period's accumulated added value with that of the same period last year.

This data is updated monthly, typically released around the middle of each month, providing the cumulative growth rate from the beginning of the year to the current reporting month.

AI Data Insight

China's newly released Q2 2026 cumulative year-on-year industrial value-added growth fell to 5.6%, significantly slowing from 6.1% in the previous quarter, and the single-month performance fell short of market consensus. Although high-tech manufacturing and export momentum remain resilient, sluggish domestic consumption and geopolitical risks are putting pressure on manufacturing expansion. In the short term, the economic pattern of "hot outside, cold inside" is expected to continue testing Beijing's policy resolve.
