OMG! China's Retail Sales SLOW DOWN? Let's Talk Business (and Maybe Skincare)

Wait What's Happening in China?!

Okay so like I'm no economist but even *I* know China is a big deal! Apparently their retail sales growth slowed down in April. Like from 5.9% to 5.1%. It's like when you're contouring and one side is like *slightly* less perfect. You still look amazing but you notice it ya know?

Industrial Output? More Like 'Werk It!'

But hold on! While retail sales were being a bit of a Debby Downer their industrial output grew 6.1%! SLAY! That's better than expected. It's like when I launch a new Skims collection and it sells out in minutes. You just *love* to see it!

Fixed Assets? More Like... Fixed Faces? (Just Kidding!)

Okay so fixed asset investment which includes property and infrastructure only expanded 4.0%. It's like when you try a new filter on Instagram and it's *okay* but not your best angle. Plus real estate is apparently dragging a bit. But hey at least unemployment went down a *tiny* bit!

Trade Wars? More Like Shade Wars!

Okay so there's some drama with the U.S. and China. Trade tensions tariffs... Sounds like my family dinners LOL! Apparently they agreed to like chill out on the tariffs for a bit to negotiate. Let's hope they can work it out cause drama is exhausting!
