2 min read

How Asian markets behave

Last week, stock indices in the Asia-Pacific region showed growth. This trend was driven by the expectation of an economic surge and new stimulus for development. Asian markets have been performing well for a long time, but there is now an interesting situation where investors have taken a watchful stance and expect new steps from the Chinese government, which will stimulate the economy.
Due to the epidemic, China is reviewing a number of processes to preserve its position. Since the coronavirus began to appear here, about 42,600 people have fallen ill and more than a thousand have died. Despite the impressive figures, WHO warns that the epidemic has not yet reached its peak. According to experts of the organization, at the peaks the number of infected should exceed a certain level, and then begin to decline, and even after the incubation period. This is not yet the case.
The Chinese Government is reassured that economic growth in the country is continuing, everything is going according to the previously planned development strategy. The epidemic cannot cause significant harm to the market, and if it does, the impact of the coronavirus and its consequences will be short-term.
The MSCI AC Asia Pacific region composite index now shows a 0.6% growth. The Shanghai Composite Index, which tracks the Chinese market, rose 0.63%, while Hong Kong’s Hang Seng rose 1.38%.
