China’s Sudden Stock Rally Sucks Money From Rest of Asia Atlantis trimmed Asia long positions to fund China purchases MSCI China Index has climbed more than 30% from a recent low By John Cheng and Eduard Gismatullin October 3, 2024 at 7:00 AM GMT+8 Save Listen 2:20 A strong rebound (https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-09-30/chinese-stocks-head-for-bull-market-as-property-rescue-deepens) in Chinese stocks is set to trigger a shift in global portfolios as some investors rush to catch the rally.
