A number of leading indicators recently released by the State Information Center of the National Development and Reform Commission show that in October, investment in fields such as new infrastructure and emerging industries continued to heat up, and the vitality of the consumer market was steadily unleashed. In October, the national construction machinery operating rate rose 0.7 percentage points year on year, maintaining positive year-on-year and month-on-month growth for two consecutive months, and the pace of project construction steadily accelerated. By region, the Northwest posted a relatively high startup rate, driven by large wind and solar base projects, while transportation infrastructure and industrial supporting project construction accelerated in the Southwest, South China, and East China. With policies continuing to take effect and major projects such as the "six networks" advancing rapidly, investment indicators rebounded and the structure improved. The value of bids won for new infrastructure projects related to computing power and data increased by 45.4% year on year, and capital investment in frontier fields such as artificial intelligence more than tripled year on year. The consumer market grew steadily. In October, consumer payment amounts across various categories increased by 2.6% year on year, and the offline consumer vitality index rose 1.8% year on year.
