The story is far from over Chinese style stimulus reappearance

Last week, in the face of continued sluggish domestic economy, the Government launched a series of intensive fiscal stimulus measures. From cars to real estate markets, and then to the railway infrastructure, "Chinese stimulus" reappearance.

Chinese economic data remain weak

Railway freight volume

The first eight months of this year, China's railway freight traffic dropped more than 10% per cent, last July decline. This was included in the "keqiang index" red light indicator is lit again China's sluggish economic growth.

National development and Reform Commission announced in January-August, rail freight volume of 2.26 billion tons, down 10.9%. August national rail freight volume 280 million tons, down by 15.3%.

Rail freight volume was economic "barometer", which can directly increase or decrease social mobility of goods, reflecting the degree of prosperity of the national economy. Article had previously described an account of Wall Street, "keqiang index" sources in 2007, Li keqiang, Party Secretary of Liaoning province's current Premier. At that time he believed that electricity consumption, rail freight and the loan is really understand indicators of the economic situation.

Industrial companies ' profits

In addition, the Bureau of statistics in August, profits of industrial enterprises above the designated size-8.8% drop 5.9% larger than in July. Data compiled by Bloomberg show, the Chinese Government began in October 2011, the biggest drop since monthly data published. In January-August, profits of industrial enterprises above the designated size-1.9% value-1% before, drop 0.9% larger than 1 July.

In fact, the growth of China's economy depend on the second half of 7%, an economist skeptical. Economists say slowing as recession and manufacturing overcapacity, investment, China will further decline in economic growth target next year.

Deng Minqiang Goldman Sachs said in a research note, the current risk significant monetary easing would not be implemented in the near future, policy support may rely more on financial instruments. Deng Minqiang also said that under the current economic environment, further rate cuts may increase the burden on the Government to curb the capital outflow. Taking into account the level of local government finance and dynamic bottlenecks, broaden the scope of the Government's fiscal stimulus, directly promoting infrastructure investment.

Economic information daily noted that, taking into account the policy work also needs to be a process to ensure 7% of the year growth expectations, has not much time left. Within the next 3 months, investment in stability, wide currency and promote exports and real estate and other fields, at least more than 10 steady growth policy is worth looking forward to. In terms of monetary policy, it can still look forward to again cut interest rates drop or drop maybe more than once.

In accordance with the provisions of the interim regulations on the tax on vehicle purchases, levied when the vehicle purchase tax, 17% VAT should be removed, and then press 10% tax levy of vehicle purchase tax, totaling about car price 8.5%. According to this formula: = car acquisition tax/(1+17%) x purchase tax (10%).
