This undoubtedly understates, or rather lags, the damage. The biggest hint comes from neighbouring countries. South Korea and Taiwan, the third and fourth biggest importers to China last year, saw exports in December plunge 17 per cent and 42 per cent respectively. Many of these shipments contain parts which China processes or assembles and then ships on to the rest of the world. If Chinese imports of such components are down by around a third, you can bet a more serious export slump will follow soon. Prices are also falling too. Chinese shipment prices to the US fell 0.6 per cent month-on-month in November, according to US data. Morgan Stanley calculates the Chinese export contraction, measured in local currency, is around 10 per cent.
