The Conference Board Economics Watch®
US/Global Monthly Series I
The Chinese economy is slowing more sharply than expected due to the weak external global backdrop and domestic constraints and imbalances. The outlook remains a soft-landing for the Chinese economy as Chinese officials enact monetary and fiscal policy stimulus that bolsters the sagging economy, however risks are rising for a hard landing. We look at the impact on the U.S. economy from a soft landing versus a hard landing. Further, we examine the longer term outlook for the Chinese economy and the prospect for rebalancing and its impact on the U.S.
