China Stocks Log Longest Winning Streak Since July

2025-12-24 08:33 By Joshua Ferrer 1 min. read

The Shanghai Composite rose 0.5% to close at 3,941, while the Shenzhen Component climbed 0.9% to 13,486 on Wednesday, with mainland stocks logging its six-session winning streak, their longest run since July, supported by regional market strength amid thin holiday trading.

Investor optimism is being fueled by strong interest in Chinese artificial intelligence firms, as global funds seek the next tech leaders while diversifying portfolios, even as concerns of a speculative bubble linger.

Meanwhile, US authorities announced tariffs on Chinese semiconductor imports over industry dominance concerns, though implementation has been delayed until June 2027, reducing immediate trade pressures on the market.

Technology stocks were broadly higher, led by Foxconn Industrial (+2%), SMIC (+1.7%), and Zhongji Innolight (+0.3%).

Other notable gainers include Luxshare Precision (+2.1%), Zijin Mining (+0.7%), and China Mobile (+0.5%).

Chinese Stocks Post Weekly Gains
The Shanghai Composite Index fell 0.33% to close at 4,080 on Friday, while the Shenzhen Component Index dropped 0.69% to 14,940, as fading hopes for a swift resolution to Middle East tensions weighed on sentiment. President Trump’s reported order authorising naval forces to “shoot and kill” vessels allegedly laying mines in the Strait of Hormuz pushed oil prices higher again, stoking global inflation concerns. Chinese exporters are seen raising prices as several consumer goods posted sharp annual increases in March. Investor sentiment was further dampened by White House accusations that China engaged in large-scale intellectual property theft from US AI labs, adding friction ahead of a planned leaders’ summit next month. In corporate news, DeepSeek released a preview of its highly anticipated V4 model. Meanwhile, Eoptolink Technology slumped 11.67% despite solid Q1 earnings results. Despite Friday’s losses, the Shanghai Composite still rose 0.7%, and the Shenzhen Component added 0.37%.
