WRI’s assessment
China’s Logistics Growth Index advanced to 50.9 in June, a 0.3-point gain that lifted the reading above its three-month average. The expansion was primarily propelled by the Business Volume and Transportation indices, reflecting sustained freight activity, surging external demand, and robust railway and port throughput.
