Retail sales
Growth in China's consumer spending continued to cool in September as the country's third-quarter growth was the slowest since the global financial crisis.
The country's retail sales rose 11.6 percent from one year earlier in September. The pace of growth has declined for four months in a row.
In the first nine months of the year, retail sales rose 12 percent year on year to 18.92 trillion yuan ($3.08 trillion).
