The latest data shows that cumulative profits of China's industrial enterprises above designated size grew by 15.7% YoY in Q3 2026 (up to August), representing a pullback from the previous 17.6%. Benefiting from AI and computing power demand, the electronics manufacturing industry maintained high growth, doubling its profits. However, single-month profit growth slowed due to a high base effect and the impact of "strong supply, weak demand," highlighting the growing pains still faced by traditional industries during their transition period.
