The claim that China's retail sales purchasing power is 1.6x the US's appears overstated. World Bank 2024 data shows China's PPP-adjusted household consumption at ~1.07x US levels. Nominal retail: China ~$6.8T vs US ~$8.5T. No direct WB source confirms 1.6x; it may stem from selective CCP projections.
