Industrial output in China grew just 4.9% year-on-year in October, missing forecasts and marking the weakest pace since August 2024, while retail sales rose only 2.9% also the slowest since last summer. The data raised investor concerns about the strength of global demand, given China's role in supply chains and commodity markets. Analysts warned that weak Chinese figures could ripple across Asia and the rest of the world via trade and commodity channels unless policy responses improve soon.
