Major rating丨Citi: Survey shows subsidies effectively drive demand for home appliances. Consumers are willing to spend more on travel.
Citibank published research indicating that, according to a recent online survey conducted with approximately 2,500 Chinese consumers, most respondents reported a favorable financial situation and expect to increase their consumer spending in the next 12 months. Among them, 63% of respondents shop several times a week, and about 49% shop between 6 to 10 times a month. The report states that the survey reflects an increase in spending on e-commerce platforms during this year's Singles' Day Sales, believing that government subsidy measures effectively boosted the demand for home appliances, while consumers also expressed a greater willingness to spend more on travel. Citibank's preferred order in selecting stocks within China's e-commerce platforms is JD.com.
