What they say

We estimate that the contribution of exports to GDP growth surged from 0.9 percent in the second quarter to 2 percent in the third. Foreign trade's contribution to China's overall economic growth will substantially rise.

China's export growth accelerated more than the market and what we had anticipated, partly because the base of comparison was very low. We expect export growth to moderate in the coming months in the light of recent weakness in global demand and currency strength.
