At the same time, the problem of structural differentiation in the economic recovery process has been alleviated, in the initial stage, the productive side led the economic recovery and consumption has continued to repair itself steadily in recent times. When these pro-cyclical sectors recover further, they will be better able to withstand the expansion of the total amount in the fourth quarter and in the future. Second, countercyclical adjustment policies are effective and there is enough political space in the future. First, policy was strong during the epidemic, fiscal policy was proactive, and monetary policy was timely and flexible, effectively supporting aggregate demand. Second, in the context of the normalization of epidemic prevention and control, policies are oriented towards structural problems of economic recovery, reduction of taxes and fees and other support for fiscal policy, monetary policy is guided by precision and capital flows to the real economy more smoothly. In addition, there is still a large political space in the field of infrastructure investment in the future, which can effectively support the sustainable recovery process.
“China’s economic recovery has become a bright spot in the world economy,” Zheng Lei, chief economist at Baoxin Financial, said in an interview with a reporter for Securities Daily.

The negative is the positive. The total value of imports and exports, the total value of exports and the total value of imports in the third quarter reached a quarterly record.
In Tao Jin’s view, foreign trade performance exceeded expectations and is an important highlight of the Chinese economy in the third quarter. Behind it is the offer advantage that brings the resumption of work and production and a complete industrial system. This advantage is expected to last for a long time.
“The world economy is still on the brink of crisis and there may be many unexpected emergencies in the fourth quarter, which should be treated with caution.” Zheng Lei said that the negative impact of the epidemic should expect a significant change after March next year. It should be noted that the new wave of epidemic peaks in the world may have an impact on China. At the same time, there are signs that the governments of several countries are preparing for financial support in the event of possible crises and the central bank needs to further relax monetary policy, in this sense, China still has more room for maneuver.
