This implies that despite initial import cost increases, enhanced export competitiveness from a weaker currency eventually leads to trade balance improvements. However, short-term negative effects, known as the J-curve effect, may occur due to trade volume adjustments lagging currency devaluations. This study aims to assess the validity of the Marshall-Lerner condition in China's economy from 1995: Q1 to 2023: Q4 and evaluate the short-term J-curve effect's magnitude. Analyzing economic indicators and exchange rate fluctuations, the research confirms the validity of the Marshall-Lerner condition and supports the existence of the J-curve effect. These findings highlight the importance of nuanced currency policymaking for sustainable …
