In China, November inflation has reached its lowest level in five months, while the ongoing decline in production prices persists despite recent government efforts to stimulate the economy.

The world’s second-largest economy is at risk of facing new tariffs from Donald Trump's second term, while still dealing with other adverse factors, indicating the need for further policy stimulus measures to support its fragile growth, according to Reuters.

As of December 5, the production capacity of China's semi-steel tyre companies was 78.92%, down 0.72 percentage points from the previous month and 0.3 percentage points lower than the same period last year.
