This Should Send Shivers Down The Spine Of Anyone Who Lived Through 2008…

China retail sales +2.5% for august vs 7% expected means:

1. They’re lying and it’s way worse.
2. There is a massive covid spike inducing it and they’re lying.

Conclusion:

When the world’s 2nd largest economy misses by this much there will be tidal wave like ripple effects.
