China's Singles' Day shopping festival, the country's Black Friday, saw stronger-than-expected consumer spending. The activity showed a positive shift in an otherwise sluggish retail landscape. Starting earlier on October 14th and ending Monday, major e-commerce platforms highlighted increased consumer activity without disclosing specific sales values.

China's October retail sales are projected to increase by 3.8% year-over-year, up from 3.2% growth in September.
