Chinese Stocks Rise on Softer Inflation Data Amid Mixed Sector Performance
Chinese equity markets rose on Monday, with the Shanghai Composite reaching a near one-month high, supported by softer inflation data that eased to a six-month low. Consumer and property shares led gains, while technology stocks declined amid sector-specific profit booking. Producer price inflation also moderated, reinforcing expectations of continued policy support and infrastructure spending to bolster economic growth despite concerns over persistent deflationary pressures and weak domestic demand.
