From Wall Street Journal,
“Merchandise exports in May fell 26.4% from a year earlier, China’s Customs agency said Thursday, accelerating from April’s 22.6% decline as global demand remained weak. China’s imports also extended their fall, dropping 25.2% in May from a year earlier after shrinking 23% in April.”
So the raw material isn't yet pouring into China as we might have suspected, at least the data say so.
