The Shanghai Composite rose 0.52% to close at 4,106 on Wednesday, hitting a fresh one-month high, while the Shenzhen Component climbed 1.3% to 15,177, its strongest level since December 2021, as China remained relatively resilient to geopolitical tensions in the Middle East. While US President Trump extended a temporary ceasefire, prospects for a lasting resolution remained uncertain after Iran declined further talks. Despite this, Beijing’s strong energy security, backed by reserves, diversified imports, and growing renewables, has helped limit risks from potential disruptions. Technology stocks led the gains, with strong performances from Hygon Information Technology (2.63%), Zhongji Innolight (2.52%), Eoptolink Technology (7.64%), and NAURA Technology (6.13%). In contrast, Contemporary Amperex Technology declined 2.51% after Sinopec sold approximately $768.5 million worth of its shares through an accelerated bookbuild.
