(Reuters) - China's economy grew 4.6% in July-September, official data showed, its slowest pace since early 2023 and below the 4.7% pace in the second quarter, as a tumbling property sector remained a major challenge for Beijing.
Authorities in the world's second-largest economy have sharply ramped up policy stimulus since late-September to revive the flagging economy and ensure growth will reach the government's target of around 5% this year.
