China’s export growth likely moderated in March after a strong start to the
year, while still providing support to the economy, according to a Wall Street
Journal survey of economists.
Outbound shipments are expected to have risen 8.0% year-on-year in March,
slowing from a 21.8% gain in January–February. Import growth likely eased to
7.0% from 19.8% over the same period.
The survey also projects China’s trade surplus at $113 billion for the month.
