The Shanghai Composite rose 3.76% in January and closed above 4,100, powered by a rotation between precious‑metals miners and AI application plays.

Gold and Silver Collapse Roils Chinese Markets: Miners, Jewelers and Commodities Stocks Hit Hard
Spot gold and silver plunged on January 30, with spot gold down as much as nearly 5% and silver nearly 7% intraday, prompting a broad sell‑off in Chinese precious‑metals and nonferrous equities.

China’s Baijiu Rally Masks a Painful Reckoning: Dividend Promises Crumble as Earnings Plunge
A sharp one‑day rally in Chinese liquor stocks on January 29 masks deeper distress: most baijiu producers reported steep 2025 profit declines, and Yanghe’s decision to abandon a RMB 7bn minimum dividend exposed the fragility of dividend‑backed valuations. The sector faces a rebalancing driven by saturated distribution channels, weaker cashflows and tighter profitability, with 2026 likely to bring consolidation and more conservative payout policies.
Mixed A‑share Open as Commodities Lead Early Gains
A‑share markets opened mixed on January 29 with the Shanghai Composite up modestly while Shenzhen and ChiNext edged lower. Non‑ferrous metals and oil & gas led sector gains as commodity strength and resource ETF inflows drove selective buying, leaving the broader market in a cautious stance.
Sichuan Probe of Veteran Tycoon Sends Three A‑Share Firms into Turmoil
Sichuan authorities have detained Xiong Haitao, the ultimate controller of three listed A‑share companies, prompting stock selloffs and reviving controversy over a disputed 2005 privatisation of Dongcai Technology's predecessor. The probe, led by the provincial supervision commission rather than the securities regulator, raises broader governance and contagion risks for Chinese markets and firms with opaque controlling‑shareholder structures.
China's Small‑Cap Tech Gauge Rebounds as Chip Suppliers and Gold Miners Lead Narrow Market Rally
China's stock market closed higher on Tuesday with ChiNext leading gains, powered by sharp rallies in chip‑supply and gold‑miner stocks.

Silver Spike and Semiconductor Gains Meet Market Reform and a 35.6‑Tesla Breakthrough: China’s Daily Economic Pulse
Spot silver surged above $113/oz and Shanghai silver futures jumped over 7% as investors priced a mix of rate‑cut hopes, geopolitical safe‑haven demand, and industrial appetite from renewables. That market heat sat alongside structural shifts — electricity‑market liberalization, a national livestreaming standard, and a 35.6‑tesla superconducting magnet — that collectively underscore China’s simultaneous push for market discipline and technological self‑reliance.
A‑Shares Split: Gold, Silver and Oil Stocks Rally as Small‑Caps Slide
China’s bourses saw a stark sector divergence: precious‑metals and oil stocks rallied to new highs while small‑cap and technology‑related segments slipped. Market turnover rose, reflecting active but selective flows as investors chased commodity exposure amid lingering doubts about capital‑intensive tech sectors.
A‑Shares Tick Up as Gold, Pharma Retail and Solar Stocks Take the Lead
Chinese A‑shares opened higher on January 23 with modest gains across the main indexes as precious metals, pharmaceutical retail and photovoltaic sectors led the advance.

China’s Small‑Cap Board Leads a Selective Rally as Gold and Chip Plays Catch Fire
China’s stock market showed a selective mid‑day rally led by small‑cap growth stocks, with precious metals and chip‑supply plays outperforming while consumer and coal sectors lagged. The move was marked by retail‑driven limit‑ups and lower overall turnover, suggesting a concentrated and potentially fragile advance.
Policy-led sectors and a precious‑metals surge lift Chinese markets even as small‑caps slide
Chinese stocks closed mixed as Shanghai gauges eked out gains while the ChiNext small‑cap index slipped after intraday strength. Power‑grid equipment and precious‑metals miners led the advance, but falling turnover and sectoral divergence point to a cautious, rotation‑driven market.
