Ask AI · How will long-term foreign investment in Chinese assets affect the market landscape?

【Homebody Finance | Expert Face-to-Face】On April 8th, A-shares rebounded strongly, trading volume significantly increased, with over 5,100 stocks rising. By the close, the Shanghai Composite Index surged 2.69%, and the ChiNext Index rose nearly 6%.

Peking University Guanghua School of Management Dean Tian Xuan said in an interview with the media that currently, A-shares are showing an independent trend, demonstrating a certain resilience to declines, with decreasing correlation to global stock indices. This is attributed to the effects of domestic policies aimed at stabilizing growth, accelerated recovery of domestic demand, and the valuation of RMB assets being at historically low levels.

He stated that against the backdrop of China’s economic stabilization and recovery, a rich policy toolkit, continuous favorable policies, and increasingly sound basic institutional frameworks of the capital market, the safety premium effect of Chinese assets has become more prominent. The logic for foreign capital to allocate to Chinese assets is shifting from “short-term speculation” to “long-term holding,” and geopolitical conflicts or other events may accelerate global funds “looking east.”
