China’s exports grew 14.1% year-over-year in April 2026, significantly surpassing the consensus estimate of 7.9%. This marks a sharp acceleration from March’s 2.5% increase, resulting in an 11.6 percentage point jump between the two months. The latest reading extends the upward trend, with export growth now well above the 12-month rolling average of 9.25%. Electronics and machinery shipments were key contributors to the robust headline figure. Compared to April 2025, the export surge reflects improving external demand and easing supply chain constraints amid global economic recovery. Market participants are watching for upcoming trade and industrial production data, as well as any policy signals from the People’s Bank of China. Updated 5/9/26
