Chinese Stocks Close Tuesday in Positive Territory

(MENAFN) Chinese equities closed firmly in positive territory on Tuesday, with the benchmark Shanghai Composite Index advancing 0.95% to settle at 4,026.63 points as energy metals and battery-linked stocks drove broad market gains.

The Shenzhen Component Index outpaced its Shanghai counterpart, surging 1.61% to close at 14,639.95 points, reflecting stronger momentum among technology and growth-oriented listings.

Combined turnover across both indices reached 2.38 trillion yuan — equivalent to approximately 347 billion US dollars — marking a notable uptick from the 2.15 trillion yuan recorded in the prior session, a sign of strengthening investor participation.

Sector performance was mixed but tilted bullish. Energy metals and battery-related stocks led the charge to the upside, while oil and gas extraction and services companies, alongside coal mining and processing firms, lagged behind and dragged on broader index performance.

Growth and innovation boards mirrored the day's optimistic tone. The ChiNext Index — which tracks China's Nasdaq-style board of emerging growth enterprises — surged 2.36% to finish at 3,558.53 points, one of the session's standout performers.

Meanwhile, the STAR Composite Index, which measures the performance of stocks listed on China's science and technology innovation board, closed 2.13% higher at 1,793.65 points, extending gains driven by continued appetite for tech-sector equities.

Tuesday's rally signals sustained investor confidence in China's domestic markets, even as global economic headwinds and trade tensions cast uncertainty over the broader outlook.
