ASHS in Focus
The underlying CSI 500 Index aims to track 500 small cap companies listed on the Shanghai and Shenzhen stock exchanges. The product charges 65 bps in annual fees.
Why the Move?
On Sept. 24, 2024, China's central bank, the People’s Bank of China (PBOC), has announced a broad range of monetary stimulus measures aimed at boosting the world's second-largest economy. This move indicates growing concern within Xi Jinping's administration over the nation’s slowing growth and declining investor confidence. Several China ETFs, thus, have been hovering around a 52-week high.
More Gains Ahead?
Currently, the ETF ASHS might continue its strong performance in the near term, with a positive weighted alpha of 31.17, which gives cues of a further rally.
