"It will take a substantial stimulus-fuelled boost to growth in the fourth quarter to hit the target."

So this is a nothing-burger right? The article says it’s expected to pick up next year and it’s 4.something instead of 5% growth? That all seems rather minor unless China has some deeper economic issues.
