China's newly released Q2 2026 (June) Composite PMI edged up to 50.6, continuing its expansion from the previous reading of 50.5, indicating a steady acceleration in corporate production and business activities. The current data primarily benefited from high-tech manufacturing exports driven by the AI boom, as well as accelerated infrastructure investment fueled by local special bond issuances. Looking ahead, the continuity of external demand and the property market adjustment remain key variables dictating the economic recovery.
