Description: Over the past three months, China has taken a series of steps to bolster its weakening economic growth. China has fought the effects of the global slowdown with interest rate cuts, lower bank reserve requirement ratios, higher credit quotas, injections of central government funds and increased focus on infrastructure construction. However, none of these steps have been on the scale of the steps taken by China over this past weekend.
