The National Bureau of Statistics recently released the operation of the national economy in 2021. my country's economy has resumed development under multiple pressures and challenges, showing many new highlights. Among them, fixed asset investment maintains growth, and investment in manufacturing and high-tech industries is growing well. aspect.
Data show that in 2021, the national fixed asset investment (excluding farmers) will be 54,454.7 billion yuan, an increase of 4.9% over the previous year; an average increase of 3.9% in the two years.
Investment growth has maintained steady progress, providing important momentum for economic recovery and development.
As one of the "troikas" driving economic growth, actively expanding effective investment will help strengthen the endogenous driving force for development.
In general, investment has maintained a recovery trend in 2021.
The scale of investment continued to expand and the structure continued to be optimized, which played an important role in optimizing the supply structure, improving the quality of supply, and making up for weaknesses.
In terms of fields and industries, investment in manufacturing increased by 13.5% year-on-year; investment in high-tech industries increased by 17.1% over the previous year, with an average growth of 13.8% in the two years, 12.2 percentage points faster than all investment.

The investment in manufacturing and high-tech industries is growing well, which plays an important role in further improving the level of the industrial chain and supply chain, accelerating the cultivation of new economic growth points, and strengthening the development of new advantages.
It is necessary to see the achievements and advantages and enhance the confidence in development, but also to see the trend and direction and grasp the overall situation of development. This is the rational attitude towards the economy.
In 2021, based on the advantages of the super-large market, my country will continue to deepen reform and opening up, actively smooth the internal and external circulation of the economy, and take new steps to build a new development pattern. Investment has made positive contributions to economic growth.
Looking into the future, the fundamentals of my country's long-term economic growth have not changed, the favorable conditions for building a new development pattern have not changed, and new economic growth points will continue to emerge.
The steady development of investment will inject strong momentum into economic growth.
At present, the international environment is complex and severe, and the impact of the global epidemic is still ongoing, posing certain constraints on investment growth.
However, from the perspective of my country's development stage, there is potential, space and motivation to expand effective investment.
On the one hand, my country is still the largest developing country in the world, and the per capita infrastructure capital stock is only 20%-30% of that of developed countries. To promote high-quality development and build a socialist modern country still needs to continue to expand effective investment.
On the other hand, the problem of unbalanced and insufficient development in my country is still prominent, and there are still many weak links in the fields of infrastructure and people's livelihood, and there is a broad space for investment to make up for shortcomings.
At the same time, with the enhancement of the driving role of innovation, the trend of industrial upgrading and development is improving, and the investment of enterprises in innovation has been continuously increased, promoting innovative development and building a new development pattern, which contains huge investment motivation.
The investment growth prospects are promising and the development potential is huge. This is due to the strong resilience and vigorous vitality of my country's economy, and it is also inseparable from the macro-control and proactive efforts.
The Central Economic Work Conference in 2021 proposed to "invest in infrastructure in a moderately advanced level" and "guide financial institutions to increase support for the real economy, especially small and micro enterprises, technological innovation, and green development."
With the accelerated pace of local government special bond issuance since the second half of last year, and the accelerated release of investment within the central budget, a series of key projects have been launched one after another, the "two new and one heavy" projects have been constructed in an orderly manner, and policies such as moderately advanced infrastructure investment are being implemented. Intensifying policy support, including fiscal and monetary investment, is conducive to the steady recovery of fixed asset investment.
"my country's economic development is facing triple pressures of shrinking demand, supply shocks, and weakening expectations." This is a sober understanding and an important judgment made by the Central Economic Work Conference.
By giving full play to my country's economic advantages, strengthening the precision and sustainability of macro-control, actively expanding effective investment, and enhancing the endogenous driving force for development, we have the confidence, confidence, ability and conditions to achieve sustainable and healthy economic development.
