"Global Markets Brace for Impact: China's Stock Dump and Fed Decision"

Chinese stock markets resumed their sell-off despite government efforts to slow the decline, with Hong Kong's Hang Seng index falling 2.3% and the Shanghai Composite shedding 1.8%. Property stocks, including Hang Lung Properties and Longfor Properties, were among the biggest fallers. The suspension of trading for China Evergrande continued after a 21% fall on Monday. A ban on short selling announced by the China Securities Regulatory Commission over the weekend may have slowed the selling on Monday, but it resumed on Tuesday. Analysts believe the selling is driven by investors seeking to exit and put their investments elsewhere, with growing concerns about state control and China's trade skirmishes with the U.S. and other western countries.

"Beijing's Liquidity Boost Sparks Surge in China Property Stocks"

China's property stocks surged after the central bank announced measures to increase liquidity for developers, easing a cash crunch caused by Beijing's crackdown on the sector's debt. The move led to a 5.2% jump in the CSI property index and a 1.8% rise in the broader CSI 300, with Hong Kong-listed Country Garden, Logan Group, and Longfor Group also seeing significant gains. The measures, valid until the end of 2024, allow banks to issue loans to commercial real estate firms with operational properties as collateral. The property crisis is expected to persist for years, impacting the country's economic growth and financial stability.

"Renewed debt fears trigger sharp decline in China property stocks"

Chinese property stocks, including Country Garden, tumbled on renewed debt fears for the sector. JP Morgan downgraded Country Garden and its property services arm, citing liquidity concerns unless the Chinese government provides more policy support. The Hang Seng Mainland Property Index fell over 5%, while shares of Longfor Group, Sunac, China Vanke, and China Overseas Land and Investment also declined. Weakness in China's real estate sector could have long-term economic implications and potentially impact neighboring countries. The property market is expected to experience an "L-shaped recovery" with steep declines followed by a slow recovery rate.
