China Plans Aggressive Economic Stimulus Amid Global Challenges

Chinese stocks initially surged on optimism over policy pledges to revive economic growth but later pared gains, reflecting investor caution. The CSI 300 Index rose up to 3.3% before closing with a 0.7% gain, while Hong Kong-listed Chinese firms ended down 0.4%. Investors are awaiting concrete measures from the upcoming Central Economic Work Conference, following the Politburo's commitment to a "moderately loose" monetary policy and proactive fiscal measures. Analysts remain cautious about the potential impact of these policies.
