Mainland Chinese Stocks and the Country’s Economy

U.S. Economy in 2021

Mainland Chinese stocks rose on Monday in a mixed trading session across the Asia-Pacific as official data showed the country’s economy grew faster than expected between October and December. 

The Shanghai Composite gained 0.58% to end its trading day at 3,541.67. The Shenzhen component added 1.51% to 14,363.57.

The world’s second-largest economy rose by 8.1% in 2021, according to the country’s National Bureau of Statistics. In the last quarter of the year, China’s GDP grew by 4% from a year ago. 

According to the bureau, in December, industrial production grew by 4.3% from a year ago. Hopefully, auto production also rose in December. Since April, it grew for the first time, up by 3.4% year-on-year in December. 

The People’s Bank of China also reduced the borrowing costs of its medium-term loans for the first time since April 2020. The central bank said it was lowering the interest rate on 700 billion yuan ($110.19 billion) worth of one-year medium-term lending facility loans to some financial institutions by ten basis points to 2.85%. 

This month, U.S. investment bank Goldman Sachs reduced its 2022 forecast regarding China’s economic growth from 4.8% to 4.3%.

    The initial deposit is a bit expensive however after a month of trading with them it’s really worth the price. Great broker services and signals are very profitable.
