China Growth Estimates Boosted

This morning Morgan Stanley upped its 2012 global growth estimates and it was fueled by a revision in China's numbers.

The firm now believes the 2012 global GDP will come in at 3.7% versus 3.5%.

China's GDP estimate is now 9.0% versus the 8.4% it had in recent months. One of the main factors behind the move is anticipated stimulus from China's government to help boost growth.

Japan's GDP was also increased to 1.8% versus 1.1%.
