"Chinese Stock Meltdown: Worst Week in Years"

Chinese stocks experienced a significant downturn, with the Shanghai Composite index falling 6.2% and the Shenzhen Component index shedding 8.1% in its worst week since 2018. China's economy faces challenges including a record downturn in the real estate market, high youth unemployment, deflation, and a falling birthrate, leading to concerns about long-term economic outlook and low expectations for government stimulus measures. In contrast, India's stock market has surged to record highs, reflecting the potential of its fast-growing economy.
