Chinese assets continue to soar! The Nasdaq Golden Dragon Index skyrocketed by more than 10%, reaching a new high since May.

The Chinese yuan exchange rate broke through the "7" threshold, rising by more than 500 points during the session!

All of this stems from the Politburo meeting on September 26.

The timing of this meeting was unusual.

This unexpected arrangement demonstrates the determination for stable growth policies and sends a strong signal.

This is a complete turnaround."

According to previous policy patterns, the September Politburo meeting usually discusses the economy less frequently, but this meeting focused on analyzing the economic situation, which may reflect the decision-makers' emphasis on increasing the intensity of macroeconomic regulation and strengthening counter-cyclical adjustments.

This meeting covered various aspects including fiscal policy, monetary policy, real estate, capital markets, private economy, and livelihood employment, emphasizing the need to strive to complete the annual economic and social development goals and tasks.

The focus of subsequent fiscal policy may shift towards benefiting people's livelihoods and promoting marginal consumption, with assistance to low and middle-income groups and stimulating the trend of consumption upgrading likely to be key areas of work. The shift in the focus of fiscal expenditure can help improve the efficiency of fiscal growth stabilization.

The meeting proposed, "to lower the reserve requirement ratio and implement a strong interest rate cut," which may indicate an increased intensity of monetary policy easing.

The meeting called for promoting the stabilization of the real estate market, which logically helps to alleviate the drag on residents' consumption willingness caused by factors such as falling housing prices and existing mortgages. However, considering the adjustment of the real estate market has a certain inertia, the timing of policy effectiveness still needs to be observed.

The meeting emphasized efforts to boost the capital market. In addition to the previously implemented merger and acquisition six articles and market value management guidelines, it is recommended to continue to pay attention to the upcoming "Guiding Opinions on Promoting Long-term Capital into the Market" and other documents, and to continuously improve the capital market "1+N" policy.
