China unveils major monetary policy shift for 2025

According to media reports, China’s Politburo has signaled a significant policy shift for 2025, adopting a "moderately loose" monetary stance for the first time since 2011. The 24-member body, led by President Xi Jinping, also pledged more fiscal measures, aiming to stabilize property and stock markets.

These decisions, announced at the December meeting, reflect preparations for potential trade tensions as Donald Trump prepares to impose steep tariffs on Chinese exports.

This marks an intensified effort to stabilize China’s economy, following earlier stimulus measures launched in September that have shown early signs of success.
