China's growth accelerates as AI export boom outweighs domestic weakness
China's economic growth picked up in the three months to the end of September, rebounding from a three-year low as the artificial intelligence (AI) boom helped boost exports.
AI Summary
China’s GDP grew 4.5% in the third quarter of 2026, a rise from 4.3% in the second quarter but still below the 5% growth seen in the first quarter. The increase follows a three‑year low in growth rates. Analysts attribute the rebound to a surge in artificial‑intelligence exports, which helped lift overall economic performance. The data were released by China’s National Bureau of Statistics at the end of September.
