Asian Stocks Rejoice On China'S Stimulus Announcement

Most Asian stocks were positive on Thursday as China announced another stimulus package for various sectors. Elsewhere, the Japanese stocks showed mixed reactions as clarity is still needed from the Bank of Japan (BoJ) side.

Even the regional markets enjoy the positive sentiment and have made new highs for the years. In the USA, the markets also show a bullish bias, but that could change after the announcement of a mixed earnings report.

Csi 300 &Amp;Amp;Amp;Amp;Amp; Asx 200 Shows Minor Gains

In China, the CSI 300 and the Shanghai Composite Index clocked a significant upside & and became the best performers in the Asian region. Overall, the CSI 300 gained 0.8% upside while the Shanghai Composite index increased by 1.5%.

This positive development comes from the PB OC's announcement that it will lower the R for the local banks. Now that the Chinese banks need to hold a smaller amount of capital, free liquidity can be added to the Chinese economy.

The PBOC has also announced new measures to support economic progress. After the announcement, the Chinese markets recovered from their historic lows.

If we look at the Hang Seng Index, it jumped 0.6% after the announcement. However, the positive sentiment was dented by the loss seen in the e-vehicle stocks, which are under pressure after a weak result from Tesla Inc.

In particular, stocks like Li Autio, Nio Inc, and others declined by 5% -8 %. Additionally, the BYD stock also fell by 3.5%.

Elsewhere, the ASX 200 from Australia closed with a 0.4% upside as the country enjoys close trade relations with China. The Nifty 50 from India also showed a 1% gain during the day, highlighting that the sentiment was mostly positive.

However, remember that the root problems can only be solved by announcing one stimulus package after another! The Chinese economy is facing a severe problem arising from subdued global demand.
