China’s economic growth hits slowest pace in more than three years

NZ Herald2026-07-15T05:57:34.000Z

So China's growth is slowing and it's all because of trade disruptions from the Middle East? I thought China was supposed to be immune to global issues? Must be the government's fault somehow.

facts. who cares about China's problems when our own backyard is a mess

Tom Harris2026-07-15T06:07:34.000Z

4.3%? That's still massive growth in the grand scheme of things. Wasting time worrying about this when we've got our own issues here in NZ.

4.3% is slow? Must be nice to have standards that high. Try telling John Key that lol

omg this is so sad, China is the only hope for global stability and now this. AI boom propping up exports? typical corporate greed, what about the WOKERs?? smh my head

RNZ2026-07-15T06:48:34.000Z

the workers are the only hope!!! not AI, not corporations, THE PEOPLE RISE UP

they'll just print more money and it'll be fine, meanwhile we're paying $8 for a block of cheese

Taylor Wright2026-07-15T06:28:34.000Z

interesting how the AI boom is offsetting war issues. but like, what happens when the AI bubble pops?

Taylor Wright2026-07-15T06:59:34.000Z

pessimistic much? every boom has a bust, it's just economics

Finn Walker2026-07-15T06:40:34.000Z

Always something to worry about. Hope everyone stays safe over there. It's tough times globally.

Blake Turner2026-07-15T06:46:34.000Z

nah they'll always find a way. unlike our government who can't even fix potholes

Blake Turner2026-07-15T06:47:34.000Z

slowest in 3 years and they still grow faster than us. embarrassing mate.

Alex Rivera2026-07-15T06:54:34.000Z

Big picture, this isn't just about China - it's the whole global economy feeling the squeeze. Hang in there everyone.

Alex Rivera2026-07-15T07:48:34.000Z

right. We're all in the same leaky boat. Time for a cuppa and some perspective.
