BEIJING, Nov. 12 (Xinhua) -- Singles' Day, China's annual online shopping extravaganza on Nov. 11, smashed all previous records on Friday, with world media giving intensive coverage on the event pondering its implications for the Chinese economy.
The most eye-catching event is Alibaba Group's Global Shopping Festival,which generated 120.7 billion Chinese yuan (17.8 billion U.S. dollars) in gross merchandise volume (GMV) during the 24-hour event.
The figure represents a 32-percent surge over the previous year's 91.2 billion yuan (14.3 billion dollars) in transactions on Alibaba's e-commerce platforms of Tmall and Taobao Marketplace.

Alibaba has turned Nov. 11 into "a symbol of the power of the Chinese consumer," The New York Times said in a report.
Alibaba's 24-hour online promotion is "closely watched for clues on the health of the Chinese economy," Bloomberg News said.
The Singles' Day bonanza is "offering assurances about the strength of the Chinese consumer despite the nation's economic slowdown," it said.
Bloomberg News noted that China's economy is increasingly dependent on its more than a billion consumers as global growth fizzles.
