张功教授:我对中国能够实现2025年5%的经济增长目标非常有信心。今年前两个月的经济表现相当稳固,经济开始复苏,房地产市场也出现回暖迹象。政府实施了大规模的财政和货币政策,并发行巨额中央政府债务以帮助地方政府,这将有助于提振经济。虽然美国关税和房地产市场等挑战依然存在,但我认为这些风险是可以控制的,其影响也可以最小化。2%的通货膨胀目标是健康的,但美元的通货膨胀周期和中国的货币政策可能会带来挑战。新增1200万城市就业岗位和5.5%的城市失业率的目标也是可以实现的,因为2024年中国创造了1250万到1260万个就业岗位,并且新技术通常不会导致整体就业岗位的大幅减少。地方政府特别债券在解决地方政府债务问题和推动基础设施及民生项目方面发挥着至关重要的作用。发行超长期特别国债和用于消费品以旧换新计划的资金,对刺激内需有一定的作用。量子技术、低空经济和人工智能集成制造等新兴产业对中国经济具有变革性意义,因为技术创新是提高生产力的关键,而中国与美国的科技竞争也使得发展这些产业至关重要。 Einar:我认为中国能够实现5%的增长目标,因为中国拥有更多工具,可以直接影响消费者支出,并且特朗普的关税政策是虚张声势。实现2%的通货膨胀目标将面临挑战,因为中国市场竞争激烈,全球需求下降,这可能会导致通货紧缩压力。但是,中国政府正在采取措施解决地方政府债务问题,并通过发行特别债券来刺激经济增长。发行超长期特别国债和用于消费品以旧换新计划的资金,对刺激内需有一定的作用,但其效果取决于消费者信心。中国经济增长的关键在于增强国内消费者的信心。
