BEIJING - China's economy in the April-June period grew a real 4.3 percent from a year earlier, official data showed Wednesday, with the pace of expansion slowing from 5.0 percent in the previous quarter amid weak domestic consumption.
The increase in the inflation-adjusted gross domestic product of the world's second-largest economy was below the growth target of 4.5 to 5 percent for 2026.
