3 articles · Updated · CNBCTV18 · Jun 16

Summary

  • Global investors are set to review allocations as the West Asia war winds down, with China offering few encouraging signals for fresh capital.
  • China still faces deflation, a prolonged property crisis, weak domestic demand and the threat of US tariffs, undermining confidence in its near-term growth outlook.
  • Higher oil prices during the conflict had briefly eased deflationary pressure and improved export competitiveness, but that support is fading with the war's end.
  • The shift leaves China again exposed to its underlying economic weaknesses just as investors weigh where to deploy money after the geopolitical shock recedes.
