For the first time in 30 years, China's interest rates have dropped below those of Japan, leading to a deflationary spiral similar to Japan's in the 1990s.

China Lowers Interest Rates

According to The Kobeissi Letter, the yield on China's bonds has fallen more than 50 basis points below Japan's government bond yield. This is the first occurrence of China's rate surpassing Japan's. Analysts note warning signs in China's bond market.

Demographic Shifts in China

The Kobeissi report also highlights significant demographic changes in China. By 2050, 39% of China's population is expected to be over retirement age, and 45% will be aged 65 or older, linked to the abolition of the one-child policy in 2016.

Consumer Confidence in China

Consumer confidence in China has hit a 30-year low, dropping by 50 points over three years. Despite a $1.4 trillion stimulus, including a central government plan to cover local government debts, this has not revived consumer trust. The Chinese yuan has fallen to its weakest level against the US dollar since 2007.

The situation in China's economy is causing serious concern, with issues reminiscent of those in Japan. The repercussions are expected to be felt beyond China's borders.
