YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

China's economic growth rebounded more than expected in the first quarter, with GDP expanding 5% from a year ago. #iran #iran #asia #worldnews #politics #usa #israel

Industrial output grew 5.7% in March from a year ago, while retail sales increased 1.7%, down from a 2.8% expansion in the first two months.

The strong GDP expansion pace may reduce the urgency for additional stimulus, with some economists expecting only targeted policy help and others forecasting the People's Bank of China won't cut interest rates this year.
