FX.co ★ China Stocks Rise as Sentiment Improves

The Shanghai Composite Index increased by 0.3%, reaching over 4,120, while the Shenzhen Component rose by 1% to 14,300 on Wednesday. This movement reverses the losses witnessed in the previous session, as investor sentiment in China showed signs of recovery despite a global market downturn caused by US tariff threats against Europe concerning Greenland. Investors remain optimistic that Beijing will enhance policy measures this year, following commitments to introduce additional fiscal and monetary stimulus. Market participants are also looking beyond worries about an escalating regulatory crackdown aimed at curbing market manipulators, high-frequency trading, and increasing margin requirements. The rebound was led by technology and AI-related stocks, with significant gains seen from Hygon Information (12%), Eoptolink Technology (4%), Tongfu MicroElectronics (10%), Montage Technology (10%), and Giga Device Semiconductor (5.4%).
