China’s June factory activity unexpectedly expands, private survey shows
- In June 2025, China's Caixin Manufacturing PMI increased to 50.4, indicating that factory activity returned to expansion after contracting in May.

- Senior economist Wang Zhe highlighted that the sector expanded in eight out of the past nine months, reflecting a gradual improvement in market conditions.
- The PMI rise suggests cautious optimism about China's manufacturing resilience but highlights continued export and demand challenges ahead in 2025.
