As Britain tries to lower its inflation, on the other side of the world, the world’s second largest ecomony is suffering a titanic shift in the economy leading staggering deflation.<\/p>\n

The Consumer Price Index for the far eastern powerhouse dropped by 0.5 percent in November which is reportedly the biggest single fall since the world was gripped by the COVID-19 pandemic.<\/p>\n

And in a worrying trend the rate of deflation has increased from the 0.3 percent in October according to Chinese authorities.<\/p>\n

In August China’s biggest property developer, Country Garden, reported an enormous loss of \u00a35.2billion as the overheated housing market bubble burst.<\/p>\n

At the same time the country’s government made the decision to suspend reporting of youth unemployment levels as the figure reached a record 20 percent.<\/p>\n

Analysts from the Citi banking group told CNN: “China\u2019s deflation situation is deepening with the triple whammy from domestic food prices, international oil price corrections and weak domestic demand.<\/p>\n

“Signs of price weakness are now spreading from goods to services.”<\/p>\n

According to the BBC, the downturn has also harmed foreign investment with a \u00a39.6billion deficit recorded this year for the first time since records began in 1998.<\/p>\n
