The truth is, some of the China concerns are overblown. The country's economy has nearly doubled in size from six years ago. Even at a lower growth rate, China remains a key driver of global consumption and production.
And other impressive data swirling around are largely ignored.
For instance, the obscene growth of Chinese banks.
