China ended the first half of 2025 with a record trade surplus of about US$586 billion
Exports rose 5.8 per cent in June from a year earlier to US$325 billion

Total exports increasing does. But it’s only half of the picture.
It means their economy is still running strong and that people are still buying from them. And they did increase total exports.
