China's Growth Stumbles But It Still Offers 'Enormous Advantages' For Investors, Says Expert
Portfolio Pulse from Benzinga Neuro
Richard Fontaine, CEO of the Center for a New American Security, argues that despite China's economic slowdown, demographic challenges, and real estate turmoil, the country still offers significant investment opportunities. China's economy outpaced the U.S. last year and leads in technologies like AI and quantum computing. The Chinese military is expanding, and there's no sign of economic struggles impacting its global activities. However, China's tech giants Alibaba (BABA) and Tencent (TCEHY) face economic headwinds, with reduced external investments and a global tourism hit of $129 billion due to post-pandemic pullback.
