BEIJING - Despite the tumbling of stock markets, investors should forgo their unnecessaryanxiety over China because the long-term prediction for China's economy still remains rosy andBeijing has the will and means to avert a financial crisis.
The Chinese stock markets had their two worst days in eight years with the benchmark ShanghaiComposite Index tumbling 8.49 percent on Monday and continuing to lose another 7.6 percent onTuesday, crashing to its lowest level since December 2014. It is the first time in 10 months thatthe index has been below 3,000 points.
The plunge of stocks, the depreciation of China's currency and its slowing growth pace afteryears of high-speed development have all put a question mark on the health of the world'ssecond largest economy.
However, such a worry is completely unnecessary. China's economy will remain robust and thepositive prediction on its future should not be affected by the current fluctuation of stock markets.
Economists believe that the capital market has been over-reacting to the slowdown of theChinese economy, which is caused in part by the Chinese government's decision to transformthe current economy into a more efficient and sustainable one.
Their positiveness was echoed by world leaders such as French President Francois Hollandeand German Chancellor Angela Merkel, who have conveyed their confidence in China's ability tosurmount the current difficulties.
In addition, despite the weak performance of manufacturing and real estate, the rapid growth ofthe service sector is becoming the new highlight of China's economy.
As China has been the most powerful propeller of the world economy in the past few years and atpresent the world has not seen another alternative for China's role anytime soon, the unwarrantedanxiety on China's economy can only bring more damages to the global economy.
