The Heat: Chinese Economy and Transnational Partnerships
In China, there is not always a significant division between those who regulate the economy and those who champion economic growth.

Carnegie’s Yukon Huang appeared on CCTV to talk about the recent downturn of China’s stock market and the controls that regulators put in place to stabilize the market. Huang said that while the controls are currently stabilizing the market, what will happen after the controls are lifted can only be speculated. He characterized the controls as draconian, saying that they are effectively not allowing people to sell shares and only encouraging people to buy shares.
Huang said that in China there is not as much of a division between those who regulate the economy and those who champion economic growth. He concluded that investors should expect higher stock markets in the future.

Chinese biotech companies have been on the receiving end of U.S. economic coercion. Yet their responses have differed significantly because firm and state interests are not uniformly aligned. For Washington, treating all Chinese tech firms the same, irrespective of their actual interests, risks pushing them farther into Beijing’s corner.

- Are Data Centers the Solution to China’s Renewables Excess Capacity?Commentary
China’s latest energy plan explicitly calls for integrating data centers into the electricity system, particularly connecting them to green energy. It appears Beijing wants to use compute as a source of domestic demand to absorb renewables excess capacity.

- China Sells Stability Amid American VolatilityCommentary
U.S. unpredictability has allowed China to capitalize on its positioning as the “responsible great power”. Paradoxically, the more China wins the perception game, the more likely expectations will rise for Beijing to deliver not just words but to demonstrate with its deeds.
