Chinese tech stocks are hitting highs not seen in more than a year after China’s central bank announced measures to stimulate the world’s second-largest economy.
The central bank on Friday lowered interest rates and injected liquidity into the banking system as Beijing assembled a last-ditch stimulus assault to pull economic growth back towards this year's roughly 5 per cent target. More fiscal measures are expected to be announced before China's week-long holidays starting on Oct. 1. The CSI 300 rallied nearly 15% this week and Hong Kong’s Hang Seng index is set for its best week since 1998.
