China sneezes, Asia catches a cold — and Singapore is no exception.

Chinas slowdown means weaker demand, cheaper exports flooding markets, and tense global trade. For Singapore, that impacts:

🔹 Investments — less capital flow into Asia, more volatility; SGX counters tied to China may stay under pressure.

🔹 Business — manufacturing orders can soften; tourism and retail feel the slowdown if Chinese spending stays weak.

🔹 Financial Markets — slower trade = slower growth outlook. Expect swings in currency, equities, and sector rotations (tech & healthcare > property & industrials).

Bottom line: Dont just watch Wall Street — watch Beijing. China's pain could quietly reshape Singapore's 2025 economy, your portfolio, and how businesses plan for the next decade.
