Dear PrimeETF Readers,
February 2025 brought some surprises to global markets, with one key player stealing the show: Chinese stocks. While the U.S. markets held steady, the Hang Seng Index soared as Chinese tech and industrial stocks surged, boosting investor optimism across Asia.
Let’s break down what happened in the markets, how PrimeETF performed, and why we’re staying firm with our current portfolio.
The Story of February: China’s Market Comeback
Imagine a football game where one team trails the entire match but suddenly scores multiple goals in the final minutes. That’s what happened with Chinese stocks in February.
The Hang Seng Index — often seen as a barometer of Chinese economic strength — jumped dramatically as investor confidence returned. Chinese tech giants rebounded sharply after a challenging 2024, with stronger consumer demand and new policy support driving growth.
Meanwhile, U.S. markets remained stable but choppy. Investors balanced hopes for softer inflation with concerns about potential trade tensions and slower earnings growth.
