China is suffering one of its worst earnings recessions on record as Beijing’s zero-Covid policy and a real estate crisis take their toll on the country’s listed companies.
由於北京的「清零」政策以及房地產危機造成該國上市公司的損失，中國正遭遇有紀錄以來一次最嚴重的盈餘衰退。
More than 4,800 Chinese companies listed in Shanghai, Shenzhen and Beijing have now released their earnings for the first half of the year. It was a bloodbath.
在上海、深圳和北京掛牌上市的4800多家中國企業已經公布今年上半年的營利。這是一場大屠殺。
As many as 53% posted a decline in net profit, according to data from Wind and Choice, two major financial information services in the country.
根據中國2家主要金融資訊服務公司「萬得」和「東方財富Choice」的數據，多達53％的企業通報淨獲利衰退。
That was almost as bad as 2020, when companies posted their worst earnings season on record as the country came to a near standstill during the initial coronavirus outbreak. Back then, 54% of listed companies saw their profit drop in the first six months.
這幾乎與2020年一樣糟，當時中國在新冠病毒疫情爆發初期幾乎停擺，企業發佈有紀錄以來最糟糕的財報季。那時候，54％的上市公司前6個月的盈利下降。
