China Exports Rise for First Time in Eight Months as Imports Surge

(Beijing) — China's exports and imports both increased in November, reversing months of decline and reflecting an uptick in global demand and stabilization of the world's second-largest economy.

Exports grew for the first time in eight months to $196.8 billion last month with a 0.1% uptick compared to a year earlier, reversing October's 7.3% decline, according to data released by the General Administration of Customs on Thursday.
