In steel industry, oil processing and chemicals, profits recovered in November due to rising prices and recovering market demand.

Nonetheless, China still faces great price pressure on its economy, including a dispute of demand and low trade with the United States.

The recovery and persistent volatility in Chinese industry is still uncertain. The Chinese government is taking steps to stimulate the domestic economy and plans to set a lower economic growth target of about 6% by 2020.
