China's Export Growth Surpasses Expectations

In December, China recorded a 6.6% increase in exports compared to the same month last year, accelerating from November’s 5.9% growth and outperforming both our projections and those of the broader market. For the entire year, exports expanded by 5.5% year-on-year, only slightly trailing the 5.9% growth achieved in 2024.

This robust export momentum was achieved even as shipments to the United States declined sharply, dropping 20% over the year. Exports to South Korea and Japan were also subdued, with annual changes of -1.1% and 3.5% respectively. However, these declines were more than compensated by significant gains in other markets. Notably, exports to ASEAN countries surged by 13.4%, and those to the European Union climbed by 8.4%, both outpacing the overall export growth rate.

These results highlight the resilience and adaptability of China’s export sector, as strong demand from key regions helped offset weaknesses elsewhere.
