China's key economic indicators pick up pace
1-2月份国民经济稳中有升
China's value-added industrial output - a gauge of activity in the manufacturing, mining and utilities sectors - grew by 7 percent in the January-February period from a year earlier after a 6.8 percent rise in December, figures released by the NBS showed.
国家统计局数据显示,1-2月份,全国规模以上工业增加值(衡量制造业、采矿业和公用事业等经济活动的指标)同比增长7.0%,增速比上年12月份加快0.2个百分点。
Retail sales, a key measurement of consumer spending, surged 5.5 percent year-on-year in the January-February period.
1-2月份,社会消费品零售额同比增长5.5%。
Fixed-asset investment - a gauge of expenditures on items including infrastructure, property, machinery and equipment - increased by 4.2 percent in the January-February period year-on-year, compared with a 3 percent rise for the whole year of 2023.
1-2月份,全国固定资产投资(不含农户)(衡量基础设施、房地产、机械和设备等项目支出的指标)同比增长4.2%,比上年全年加快1.2个百分点。
The surveyed urban jobless rate came in at 5.3 percent in February, according to the NBS.
2月份,全国城镇调查失业率为5.3%。
The NBS said the Chinese economy continued to recover in the first two months with stimulus policy measures taking effect gradually.
国家统计局表示,1-2月份,随着各项宏观政策发力显效,国民经济持续回升向好。
Meanwhile, the bureau warned of challenges from a more complicated and grimmer external environment, mounting uncertainties and insufficient demand, calling for further moves to strengthen China's economic recovery foundation.
但也要看到,外部环境复杂性、严峻性、不确定性上升,国内有效需求不足问题犹存,经济持续回升向好基础还需巩固。
