Indonesia's consumer confidence increased to 121.7 in April 2025, up from March’s five-month low of 121.1. It marked the first increase in consumer sentiment in four months, as most of the six sub-indices strengthened: perceptions of the country's current economic conditions (up 3.1 points to 113.7), income expectations for the next six months (up 0.5 points to 137.5), current income levels (up 4.1 points to 125.4), and job availability compared to six months ago (up 1.3 points to 101.6). Meanwhile, sub-indices weakened for overall job availability (down 2.4 points to 123.5) and the economic outlook (down 1.9 points to 129.8).

Exports from China grew by 8.1% year-on-year in April 2025, far exceeding market forecasts of 1.9%. However, the latest figure marked a sharp slowdown from the 12.4% rise in March—the fastest growth since last October—as shipments to the US were dampened by Trump's tariffs and uncertainty surrounding trade talks between Washington and Beijing.

China Export Growth Beats Forecasts

China's trade surplus jumped to USD 96.18 billion in April 2025, up from USD 72.04 billion in the same period a year earlier, exceeding market expectations of USD 89 billion.

Meanwhile, imports unexpectedly grew by 0.8%, easily beating market expectations of a 5.9% fall, reversing a 4.3% drop in March.
