US-China trade war: CSI 300 jumps after Trump delays tariff hike

CNN  

Hong Kong CNN Business — Shanghai stocks just had their best day in more than three years after comments from the leaders of China and the United States brought investors piling back into the market. Some of the encouragement came from US President Donald Trump, who announced that he’ll delay a major tariff hike on Chinese exports in order to give the two countries more time to reach a trade deal. Chinese shares took a beating last year from fears about the country’s economic slowdown and its trade war with the United States. Hao Hong, head of strategy at brokerage BOCOM International, said Monday’s big gains were helped by Xi’s comments about the Chinese financial industry.
