With few new coronavirus cases, Chinese factories are reopening and restrictions are easing, yet the prospects for growth have never been worse

More than two months after imposing quarantines to counter the coronavirus, China is getting back to work. It is a slow and rocky process, one that rests on the world battling back successfully against the pandemic.

With new infections dwindling, factories are restarting, stores are reopening, and people are venturing outdoors. In some ways, China is where the U.S. and Europe hope to be within weeks or months.

do not buy our mask,medical equipments,it's evil and have virus

You always want to see bad news about china, but we will getting better and better in a different way. care more about your own people's life

I will avoid buying anything made in China to the maximum extent possible until the government their is overthrown. There must be a price for such global treachery.

pleasesaveour Maybe they can retool and make medical equipment.

BlainFelix

I honestly hope that we can have less made in China stuff from now on

Step one - eliminate markets of exotic animals!

Ridiculous

American business are already looking to rebuild in America or Japan, India. Cheap labor and no air regulations are no longer attractive due to lack of transparency from government. Trump2020

I guess when you unleash a pandemic to sink the global economy it has some consequences. Maybe a new movement called “Don’t buy the shit China is shoveling”.

I hope we stop depending on them for anything

That's not actually entirety accurate if you take into account that they are providing a half world with medical suplies.

jasonzweigwsj Put the numbers in context. China is making more than 100M masks a day. There are a few bad eggs exporting subpar stuff, but still better than anything the west can make, in the next 4 weeks. Shame on you twitheads talking shit but doing nothing to help your own countrymen

alphaideas Good, This pariah State we bow to in China, so help us God, the bad karma it is spread will eventually come back to haunt it forever. “What goes around comes around” over the LT China has lost its goodwill with world and will never command same economic clout after this!

alphaideas China’s CCP needs to apologize and take ownership at the very least; the world will not forget and it shouldn’t. Nothing against the people of China but the people running China who brought the world to it’s knees.

FAKE NEWS! Facing huge demands from all over the world, especially medical supplies and other needed demands , more than 80% of China’s factories back to work under strict and safe standards, in order to protect workers and make sure the products’ quality and safety.

Sort of makes Trump’s quick recovery talk seem doubtful.

Excellent news

Absolutely true, there's a big push in China to have a lot of these exported products available locally. And there;s going to be stimulus packages to allow Chinese to afford them. I sense a recovery in the making, albeit a very slow one in China. I live and observe in Guangdong

It makes no sense that your challenging! In china, Life back to normal now. Providing a good model to you all to follow. You will win also!

yes, ''China is sick man of Asian'' by WSJ Now, it's USA to be sick woman of earth. USA always NO.1 MAGA

As to make China dirty, you spare no effort and try every possible perspective. But the sound and information seem rather narrow and not so exact. Don't deny that U.S. media serves politics or your narratives all wear colored glasses.

Don't buy and go die

Tell that to Apple and Tesla

Something interesting to be found: 2 months ago, China was in epidemic, China had trouble. Now world is in epidemic, China has trouble; 2 month later, world is recovering, China will have trouble then🤔

Horse hockey

Chine's still raising GDP belongs yet to the past.

Time for US to repatriate our production of pharmaceuticals, PPE, medical devices and other products deemed essential for National Security, Safety. Never again...

WSJ reporters in China dedicated pouring dirty muddy water to China, they didn't care what's going on in last 2 months in China. They didn't present correct information to Western world. They even failed to predict the Covid-19 disaster looming to America. Shame on them.

Such a sensational title seems much like a sour grape. Remember, the U.S. only had 70-80 million people when Roosevelt adopted the new deal, but China has 1.4 billion. Be responsible, tell your readers something useful.

China has more domestic markets than the white world combined。

After that what's happened in China, this country will be never considering as the one of the most important business partner in the world economy.

Have lunch in this environment Didn't all the Chineses boast that china is the greatest and richest country of the Earth 🤔

You can rest assured,China government wouldn't sell one mask to US

ayemojubar If China had thought they would turn world power using Coronavirus they must be joking they will fail in this war

Reopen of factories increase worry about resumption of pollution spread. And don’t want their product anymore. China is global burden. Want china to act rightly.

A chinese lawyer sued america accusing of making & spread of coronavirus to them. 😂

Our labor party and the unions forced the factory’s overseas to China because they demanded a little to much to often. We have no infrastructure here because of that .

No one?There are 1.4 billion people in this country:)

New York wants 30000 ventilators. Thus should the media doubts that New York downplays the number of the dead and the critical? Such irresponsible media!

Since you guys been aske to leave China you start to write story without fact check now? please google how much goods did the France/Spanish/Southern korea ordered from us OK? Do something for your own jobless people. Leave China alone~ annoying americans.👎

Just learned France bought 1 billion masks from China. And we need it, too.

in fact ,wsj can't back to china.

Xi Jinping : ' Recommend a financial profit-sharing of the company's profits to EMPLOYEES, CUSTOMERS, USERS and their increased participation in the decisions and management of the company, equality of shareholders and managers. An inventive & hyperactive economy '

They want, actually, coz I’m here. Just purify the source of your news, I remembered it was better many years ago.

India is a democracy and a feasible option for imports. A good entrepreneur from India can deliver quality goods.

你他妈的黑中国黑上瘾了?再黑,把你华尔街驻中国记者全撵出中国

1.2 billion people market , now is better than America as they suffered COVID19 and lockdown ever

That's really good and it should stay like this. China should be made to pay for the terrible disease it has spread the world over.

Shock!!! Chinese American doctors questioned the hospital's lack of preparation for the outbreak to find media exposure was directly fired!!! The United States is unprepared for the epidemic?

Maybe You will be disappointed.this is be success for China. The economy is not at your disposal.wsj

As Dutch gov bought a load of face masks from Chinese factory; 50% of which fall well below safety/quality measures: no surprise nobody wants Chinese stuff right now.

Must be time for a bargain then? 🤔

So you're going to use your the right to speak to guide people to believe your point of view?

About time the west woke up

maggieNYT BRAND CHINA IS FINISHED. And why should we want their junk?!? F*** em! Yes time to move manufacturing to a non communist country's.

The global pandemic hits economic down every country, but not only China

maggieNYT They may be open for business, but the rest of the world isn't. They are months ahead of the rest of the world in recovery.

This is devastating for their leadership as they promised certain economic growth targets and this makes it impossible to achieve. Could cause riots as u could argue they started it to stop HK riots

Hahahaha

The world needs to retaliate! No more China, no more craps!

As taxpaying citizens, we must demand cutting off any government money being spent on Chinese products. It's a bunch of cheap junk anyway

USAUSA

Sadly, the system has few checks and balances; from radioactive drywall, to missing parts in assemblies, to ghost cities; the virus may be a blessing, to slow thier system down and change;

China is fostering a breeding ground for these pandemics. BoycottChina

demand for their products has evaporated. I will never purposefully buy anything made in China.

Buy local

product what you want is the basic rule of economics, China will change strategy

The Chinese themselves also need products . They will know what they want to produce. Don't worry about it. Thank you.

maggieNYT Hell no! It’s time we understand that we can stop buying Chinese. It’s time we start making things in the USA.

If they made ventilators there would be demand.

ahahahah, nonsense. therefore you commit that your US intellengce agency send spy into Chinese factories.

RT : “They may be back, but they’re not back to growth.” China's factories and businesses reopen to find no one wants what they're selling.

Boycott China Boycott the Boycott state sponsored MSM

No kidding.

For China, it's just business. But the rest of world, its life.

Spain says rapid tests from China work 30% of the time - Business Insider In this crisis, I learnt that it is a problem on too relying on China's production.

Fuck China. chinaIsAsshoe

Make masks

At least they are getting paid and their welfare are being taken care . Most important, they are alive and healthy.

Oopssss

They brought this on to themselves. Even if the virus was made and released by them or not, people all over the world are realizing that China can't make EVERYTHING, and that most of what they sell is utter crap, and they just sell for the sake of making money.

I used to look for 'Made in America'.. Now and from here forward I will make a concerted effort for both personal and business purchases.

It’s a shame that people only read the headlines and make up their own story. The real deal is that companies are cutting orders to China as we are in our own covid crisis. Stores are closed. No one is shopping. People have no work and no money. Thus- NO ORDERS. SIMPLE.

maggieNYT Oh that silly thing, huh?

maggieNYT Make ventilators. The world needs them now!

The whole world is sick and dying becuz of Wuhan Virus. What do you expect?

Like this?

this will be the story of the WSJ for ignoring what Trump's up to.

maggieNYT Paywall!?! I mean we hurtin’

We were fine before Bush Sr opened their wall to forward the New Order. We can be again.

maggieNYT Masks, gowns, face guards, reagents for test kits, ventilators...there's a big and lively market out here.

maggieNYT Can they make PPE and ventilators? Asking for a country that is completely underprepared.

maggieNYT They could make ventilators...

Good. Eff'em.

Every country should stop relying on China and boost their manufacturing capacity as much as they can.

then, now is the time to help other countries by manufacturing medical/personnel protective equipment for others SO they can go back buying your Made In China 🇨🇳 stuff.

Health is gone, Wealth is null.

China is open for business WITH GUARANTEED healthy people only. That’s not wide open folks.
