According to a report released by HSBC, China's July PMI will fall below 50 percent for the first time in a year, the Nanfang Daily reported Tuesday.
HSBC's chief economist Qu Hongbin refuted the opinion that China's economy was facing a hard-landing. He argued that despite the economy facing a possible slowing down and economic growth in the fourth quarter falling below 9 percent, this year's growth would still be around 9 percent and the CPI around 5 percent, according to the newspaper.
A report released by the National School of Development at Peking University showed economic growth is slowing down and the pressure of the inflation remains.
The Central Political Bureau held a meeting on July 22 and set the primary task of macro regulation and control for the next phase, which is stabilizing the general level of commodity prices, the newspaper reported.
