China's major economic statistics for April were released, and industrial production increased by more than 9% compared to the same month last year, and the trend of recovery from the effects of the spread of the new coronavirus infection continues. ..

China's National Bureau of Statistics released key economic statistics last month on the 17th.



According to this, industrial production increased by 9.8% compared to the same month last year due to the increase in production of electric vehicles and industrial robots.



In addition, investment in fixed assets such as buildings and equipment increased by 19.9% ​​from January to last month compared to the same period last year due to growth in investment in real estate development and high-tech industries.



In addition, retail sales, which show consumption trends, increased by 17.7% compared to the same month last year due to strong sales of sports equipment and jewelery.



On the other hand, retail sales have only increased by 0.3% compared to March, and raising the level of personal consumption is an issue.



"The Chinese economy is improving steadily, but there are imbalances in the recovery because it is still in the process of recovery, and companies due to the recent rise in raw material prices," said Akira Tsuki, a spokesman for the National Bureau of Statistics of China. Pressure on production is increasing. "
