In 1 Year, The Chinese Economy Will Be Performing Poorly

In 1 year the chinese economy will perform poorly, in other words, it will have a recession. A recession in China could be a technical recession, if you slow down from a rate of 10 percent to a growth rate of 3 percent, that is a recession.

I don`t believe in the growth numbers in China. If you had GDP adjusted to the true rate of inflation, then real growth is of course much slower.
