Industrial development progressing steadily despite downside pressures
Profit recovery in the high-end sector and some key industries during the first 10 months of the year despite rising downside pressure is an indication that China's ongoing industrial transformation and upgrade efforts are gradually bearing fruit, experts said.
Profits of the high-tech manufacturing sector rose 7.5 percent year-on-year from January to October, 1.2 percentage points higher than in the first nine months, according to the National Bureau of Statistics.
