Blockade tightens squeeze on Ukraine's grain and winter harvest

Ukraine's renewed Black Sea blockade throttles grain shipments, squeezes farmers' liquidity, and leaves millions of tonnes unsold as winter crops loom. With exports down roughly 75% year-on-year and storage capacity strained (up to 11 million tonnes), farmers face funding gaps for planting next season, while alternative routes via the Danube and rail can't fully compensate, and European markets wrestle with the spillover effects of disrupted grain flows.

Japan rides chip boom to near four-year export surge

Japan rides chip boom to near four-year export surge

Japan's July exports rose 23.2% year on year, led by semiconductor shipments and a 49.1% jump in semiconductor equipment, marking the fifth straight monthly gain and the fastest pace since Oct 2022. Shipments to China climbed 25.8% and to the U.S. 22%, aided by a weak yen and higher selling prices even as volumes rose 5.2%. Imports gained 27.8%, driven in part by petroleum as oil prices climbed. The solid export performance supported GDP growth in Q2, with the yen weakening and the Nikkei edging higher after the data release.

AI-driven demand lifts China's July exports above expectations

China's July exports rose 23.9% year-on-year, beating forecasts as AI infrastructure demand and a surge in chip shipments supported growth; imports climbed 27.5%, and the trade surplus reached $112.5 billion. Semiconductor exports jumped 117% in July, with electrical and mechanical goods (EVs, batteries, wind equipment) accounting for a large share of shipments. U.S. shipments rose about 17% amid tariff changes, while EU demand also grew, signaling the export engine could stay strong into Q3 even as domestic consumption remains weak.

Black Sea turmoil lifts wheat as Sea of Azov disruptions tighten exports

Fierce Black Sea tensions and attacks on Sea of Azov port facilities are curbing Russia’s and Ukraine’s grain shipments, with Kerch Strait disruptions limiting traffic and Odesa terminals hit, prompting a rally in wheat futures; SovEcon’s Andrey Sizov warns there could be more upside if disruptions persist, but any reversal could be sharp as export capacity narrows, and farmers are advised not to rush hedges while volumes remain uncertain.

China's growth slows to 4.3% in Q2, undershooting targets as domestic demand weakens

China's growth slows to 4.3% in Q2, undershooting targets as domestic demand weakens

China's Q2 GDP rose 4.3% year-on-year, below Beijing's 4.5–5% target after 5% growth in Q1, signaling weak domestic demand even as exports surged (June exports up about 27% year over year). The release, the first full quarter since the Iran war began, marks the slowest quarterly expansion since late 2022. Domestic headwinds include a property slump and sluggish consumer spending (June retail sales +1%, new-home prices -0.1%). Some analysts say the miss reflects the lower target rather than a sharp downturn, though external demand remains a bright spot amid higher energy costs.

China's Q2 growth slows to 3½-year low as imbalances deepen

China’s economy grew 4.3% year-on-year in Q2, slowing from Q1’s 5.0% and undershooting its 4.5–5.0% annual target, as weak consumption and investment offset a still-strong manufacturing/export engine; June retail sales rose 1.0% and industrial output +5.3%, while fixed-asset investment fell 5.7% and housing demand remained soft, underscoring an unbalanced growth model and prompting debate over policy steps to boost domestic demand.

China’s growth slows to multi-decade lows as domestic demand falters

China’s Q2 GDP rose 4.3% year-on-year, the slowest since the early 1990s GDP data began (apart from Covid distortions) and below Beijing’s 4.5–5% 2026 target. Domestic demand shows weakness: retail sales +1% in June, fixed-asset investment down 5.7% in the first half, while industrial production rose 5.3% in June. Exports jumped 27% YoY in June, but net exports remain negative due to higher imports, underscoring reliance on trade amid a property slowdown and deflation risks. Analysts warn that monthly indicators point to a bleaker picture than the quarterly GDP, with data gaps and foreign demand cited as partial explanations.

China’s EV push fuels 80% June rise in passenger-car exports as domestic demand weakens

China’s EV push fuels 80% June rise in passenger-car exports as domestic demand weakens

China’s passenger-car exports surged 80% year-on-year in June, driven by strong demand for electric vehicles, while domestic sales declined about 26%. For the first half of 2026, exports jumped 72% to over 4.4 million vehicles, with June exports around 905,000 cars (up from 809,000 in May). Analysts say the domestic market remains under pressure from price wars and a sluggish property sector, compounded by cutbacks in EV subsidies; meanwhile Chinese automakers like BYD are expanding overseas. Some forecasts suggest 2026 exports could reach around 10 million vehicles, though domestic demand may stay soft.

AI-driven demand lifts China’s manufacturing in June as exports rebound

China’s official manufacturing PMI rose to 50.3 in June, signaling expansion driven by high‑tech and AI-related production and a rebound in new export orders, while the non‑manufacturing PMI edged up to 50.2. External demand provided a lift amid weak domestic demand and a property downturn, with policymakers showing little sign of near‑term stimulus despite some improvement in exports.

Japan's May exports jump at fastest pace in over three years on chips and cars

Japan's May exports rose 17% year-on-year—the fastest since November 2022—driven by a 61.2% surge in semiconductor shipments and a 16.4% jump in car exports, with volumes barely higher, indicating price and weak-yen effects. Imports rose 12.5% YoY, while energy imports fell, and the data comes as the Bank of Japan raised rates to 1% amid inflation and a softer global outlook.
