In September, the recovery of the global manufacturing industry still needs to be strengthened. The European Union, represented by China, the United States, Japan, South Korea, Germany, and France, is still below the balance line of prosperity and decline. Among them, China continues to serve as a stabilizer for global economic recovery, the manufacturing industry in the United States remains weak, the manufacturing industry in the European Union is weak and facing increasing downward pressure, and the manufacturing industries in South Korea and Japan have declined. Overall, the global manufacturing industry still needs to improve its recovery efforts, and geopolitical turmoil has exceeded expectations.

In terms of growth expectations, major institutions around the world are relatively optimistic. The latest OECD report has raised its economic growth forecast for 2024 from 3.1% to 3.2%, indicating that the global economy is in a stabilizing phase. According to WTO data, the latest global goods trade sentiment index is 103, higher than the benchmark point of 100. ADB expects developing economies in the Asia Pacific region to grow by 5.0% in 2024, up 0.1% from the April forecast.
From January to August 2024, the production of China's electronic information manufacturing industry grew rapidly, exports continued to rebound, efficiency remained stable and improved, investment tended to be stable, and the industry's development trend was good.
