A glass of milk could soon cost a lot less due to China's economic slump.
Whole milk powder prices slumped to a three-year low as Chinese demand for dairy products slides.
With demand struggling to recover after the pandemic, whole milk powder prices have been sliding, Bloomberg reported.
The average price for a ton of milk powder has tumbled to $2,864 – the lowest level since June 2020, per the GlobalDairyTrade.
Economic growth for the three months to June 30 also badly missed economists' expectations of 7.3%, rising just 6.3%.
