China recorded 4-5% Growth in 2026 and the 10-year Treasury yield remained under 5.2%.
The United States and China finalized a comprehensive tariff agreement before the end of 2026. Chinese authorities reported annual GDP Growth of between 4.0% and 5.0% for 2026. During the same year the U.S. 10-year Treasury yield never rose to 5.2%. These outcomes coincided with a relatively stable yield curve.
The deal, sealed on December 31, was described as comprehensive, covering the remaining tariff measures between the two economies. Both sides indicated that the agreement would lift the trade barriers that had been in place for several years. Implementation steps were set to begin in early 2027.
