Beijing\u2019s five-year, 10 trillion yuan ($1.4 trillion) stimulus plan, aimed at addressing local government debt, failed to inspire confidence in growth among analysts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>China\u2019s inflation rate dropped to 0.3%, below the anticipated 0.4%, marking its lowest point in four months. This was the second consecutive monthly decrease, highlighting potential challenges in the world\u2019s second-largest economy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On Monday, China launched Singles\u2019 Day, its answer to Black Friday, which ING analysts view as a potential indicator of consumer sentiment. They expect continued growth in value-focused and online shopping, potentially exceeding the broader consumption growth trend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Across Asia, markets reacted to these developments. Hong Kong\u2019s Hang Seng index fell nearly 2.5%, while China\u2019s CSI 300 declined by 1%. Japan\u2019s Nikkei 225 dropped 0.4%, with the Topix slightly down by 0.32%. South Korea\u2019s Kospi fell 1%, and the Kosdaq slipped 1.9%. Australia\u2019s S&amp;P\/ASX 200 dipped 0.43%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the U.S., Friday saw a record close for the Dow Jones Industrial Average and S&amp;P 500, marking their strongest week in a year, partly spurred by Donald Trump\u2019s election victory. The Dow rose by 259.65 points to 43,988.99, briefly trading above 44,000 for the first time, while the S&amp;P 500 reached 5,995.54, after trading over 6,000 briefly. The Nasdaq Composite had a modest increase of 0.09%, ending at 19,286.78.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>Upcoming Events:&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>01:30 PM GMT &#8211; GBP CB Leading Index m\/m<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Global Markets: News &amp; Data: Markets Update: Asia-Pacific markets declined on [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":79815,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[196,215,339],"tags":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.icmarkets.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/73002"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.icmarkets.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.icmarkets.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.icmarkets.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/8"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.icmarkets.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=73002"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.icmarkets.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/73002\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":73005,"href":"https:\/\/www.icmarkets.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/73002\/revisions\/73005"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.icmarkets.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/79815"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.icmarkets.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=73002"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.icmarkets.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=73002"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.icmarkets.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=73002"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
