Asia And Europe Markets Advance; Gold Up On Softer Dollar - Global Markets Today While US Slept

On Wednesday, April 30, U.S. markets closed mixed as the Dow and S&amp;P 500 staged a late rebound, overcoming a surprise 0.3% GDP contraction — the first in three years. Consumer spending jumped 0.7%, easing stagflation concerns, while Meta and Microsoft surged on strong earnings. AI sector jitters, tariff tensions, and Fed rate cut bets fueled market volatility, with trading volumes below average.
In economic data, U.S. GDP fell 0.3% last quarter, the first decline since 2022, missing 0.4% growth forecasts. April's ADP report showed just 62,000 new private jobs, the weakest in nine months.
Most S&amp;P 500 sectors ended higher Wednesday, led by health care, industrials, and consumer staples, while energy and consumer discretionary lagged.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 0.35% to 40,669.36, the S&amp;P 500 gained 0.15% to 5,569.06, while the Nasdaq declined 0.09% to 17,446.34.

Gold Slides On Trade Optimism, Dollar Strengthens - Global Markets Today While US Slept

On Tuesday, April 29, U.S. markets closed higher as investors weighed strong corporate earnings, evolving U.S.-China tariff developments, and growing recession concerns.
The Dow led the gains, while oil and gold prices declined. Canada pushed back against Trump's trade stance, and China eased certain tariffs. Market sentiment remained sensitive to political shifts, with upcoming earnings from major AI-focused tech firms and weak U.S. consumer data in focus.
On the economic front, U.S. job openings fell to 7.19 million in March, missing expectations. Wholesale inventories rose 0.5% to $908 billion, suggesting stronger stockpiling. Meanwhile, the goods trade deficit widened sharply to $162 billion, exceeding forecasts and indicating increased import demand.
Most S&amp;P 500 sectors closed higher, led by financials, materials, and consumer staples. Energy stocks lagged, closing lower and diverging from the broader market trend.

Asia Mixed, Europe Markets Gain; Gold Softens On Easing Tensions - Global Markets Today While US Slept

There was a big rally on Wall Street on Friday, with a lift by technology and AI stocks, amid indications of weakening tensions in the<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/us-china-relations-0"> U.S.-China trade ties</a>. The tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite at the forefront with a 2.71% gain. Diplomatic gestures hinted at a possible <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/04/45065482/us-china-to-ease-tariffs-gradually-after-complex-talks-says-morgan-stanley-but-cuts-chinas-growth-outlook">easing of U.S.-China trade relations</a>. Beijing lobbied for the removal of U.S. tariffs on Chinese exports following statements by U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent to roll back trade tensions. The move was seen as a positive sign for the tech sector, which has been most affected by the trade conflict.
In the constantly shifting field of technology investing, two <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs">ETFs lead the pack</a>, each with its own geographical and strategic spin. The Invesco QQQ Trust (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QQQ#NASDAQ">QQQ</a>) has been the quintessential bellwether for U.S. tech innovation for some time, but the Invesco China Technology ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CQQQ#NYSE">CQQQ</a>) aims to catch the energy of China&#8217;s emerging tech trends. While both have a sectoral focus in common, the narrative they present is one of divergence—on performance, risk, and opportunity.

QQQ, which follows the NASDAQ-100 Index, is filled with some of America&#8217;s most valuable and powerful non-financial giants such as Apple (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>), Microsoft (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) and Nvidia (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>). It has always posted good returns for shareholders, with a five-year return of a stunning 124%. Its one-year return, as of the latest available figures, is 10%. Its low-cost expense ratio of 0.20% and dividend yield of around 0.60% make it a desirable pick for growth versus value-conscious investors desiring a mix of stability and growth. QQQ&#8217;s performance has also been catalyzed by the recent and sudden surge in artificial intelligence investments, as well as strong Q1 earnings from some of its largest constituents.
On the other hand, CQQQ shares a more complex story—one influenced by regulatory seismic shifts, geopolitical trends and another type of tech aspiration. This ETF tracks the FTSE China Incl A 25% Technology Capped Index and holds top Chinese tech stocks such as Tencent (OTCPK: TCEHY), PDD Holdings (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PDD#NASDAQ">PDD</a>) and Meituan. CQQQ recently mounted a stunning recovery, with a one-year return of 21%, outperforming QQQ&#8217;s performance. But its three- and five-year track record is still challenged, with negative three- and five-year returns. The fund also has a higher expense ratio of 0.65% and a lower dividend yield of 0.25%.
The dramatic disparity in performance metrics between QQQ and CQQQ highlights the divergent realities of U.S. and Chinese tech ecosystems. QQQ&#8217;s consistent upward trajectory mirrors a market led by mega-cap companies with stable earnings and global reach. CQQQ, on the other hand, is going through a recovery phase following years of regulatory tightening, economic uncertainty, and investor skepticism. Its recent rally indicates renewed investor optimism, but its greater volatility requires a more risk-hungry attitude.
For investors, whether to invest in QQQ or CQQQ is less about selecting a winner and more about staying true to their investment worldview. QQQ might be the preferred vehicle for those wanting solid exposure to well-established market leaders in a generally stable regulatory regime. For others, however, CQQQ might be more appealing for those who want greater exposure to the potential upside of China&#8217;s fast-changing technology space.
In the end, both of these ETFs can serve supporting roles in a diversified portfolio. QQQ provides predictability and size, and CQQQ offers a ticket to a riskier but potentially lucrative ride. Read Next:

Asia And Europe Markets Gain On Partial US Reciprocal Tariff Exemptions; Dollar Hits Multi-Month Low - Global Markets Today While US Slept

On Thursday, April 10, U.S. markets closed lower as renewed fears over President Trump&#8217;s escalating trade war with China erased much of the previous day&#8217;s historic rally.
The S&amp;P 500 and Nasdaq had surged following a 90-day tariff reprieve, but investor uncertainty quickly returned. Meanwhile, inflation eased in March, nearing the Fed&#8217;s 2% target, though the central bank&#8217;s path forward remains uncertain amid ongoing trade tensions with both China and Europe.
In economic data, Consumer inflation slowed to 2.4% year-over-year, down from 2.8% in February and below expectations of 2.6%—marking the lowest reading since September 2024. On a monthly basis, the Consumer Price Index fell 0.1%, the first decline since May 2020.
Most S&amp;P 500 sectors ended lower, led by sharp losses in energy, technology, and communication services. However, consumer staples outperformed, closing in positive territory.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped 2.50% to 39,593.66, the S&amp;P 500 fell 3.46% to 5,268.05, and the Nasdaq Composite declined 4.31% to close at 16,387.31.

China's Retaliatory Tariff Hike Escalates Trade War, Gold Soars, Dollar Hits Two-Year Low - Global Markets Today While US Slept

On Wednesday, April 9, U.S. markets closed higher in a powerful rebound. The S&amp;P 500 soared 9.5%—its largest single-day gain since 2008—after President Trump announced a 90-day pause on tariffs for many countries with a 10% reciprocal Tariff on all except China, offering relief to anxious investors.
The rally was further fueled by strong demand in a U.S. Treasury auction, upbeat earnings from Delta Air Lines, and broad-based buying interest. Yet uncertainty remains over future policy shifts, inflation risks, and the upcoming earnings season.
On the economic front, mortgage applications surged 20% in the first week of April, reflecting renewed consumer activity.
All 11 sectors in the S&amp;P 500 finished in positive territory, with consumer discretionary, information technology, and communication services posting the strongest gains.

Asia And Europe Markets Rally After Trump's Tariff U-Turn, Gold Nears Record High - Global Markets Today While US Slept

지난 금요일(25일) 미국 증시에서는 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/us-china-relations-0" target="_blank" rel="noopener">미중 무역 관계</a>의 긴장감이 약화될 조짐이 보이는 가운데 기술주와 인공지능(AI) 주식이 상승하며 큰 폭의 랠리가 있었다. 기술주 중심의 나스닥 종합지수는 2.71% 상승하며 선두를 달렸다.
외교적 제스처는 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/04/45065482/us-china-to-ease-tariffs-gradually-after-complex-talks-says-morgan-stanley-but-cuts-chinas-growth-outlook" target="_blank" rel="noopener">미중 무역 관계의 완화</a> 가능성을 암시했다. 중국은 스콧 베센트 미국 재무장관의 무역 긴장 완화 발언 이후 중국 수출품에 대한 미국의 관세 철폐를 위해 로비를 벌였다. 이러한 움직임은 무역 갈등의 영향을 가장 많이 받아온 기술 분야에 긍정적인 신호로 받아들였다.
끊임없이 변화하는 기술 투자 분야에서 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs" target="_blank" rel="noopener">ETF</a> 2종목이 각자의 고유한 지리적 및 전략적 핵심으로 선두를 달리고 있다. 인베스코 QQQ 트러스트(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QQQ#NASDAQ">QQQ</a>)는 한동안 미국 기술 혁신의 대표주자였지만, 인베스코 차이나 테크놀로지 ETF(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CQQQ#NYSE">CQQQ</a>)는 중국의 신흥 기술 트렌드를 포착하는 것을 목표로 한다. 두 상품 모두 섹터에 초점을 맞춘다는 공통점이 있지만 성과, 위험, 기회에 대한 차별화 전략을 제시한다.
QQQ 펀드는 나스닥 100 지수를 추종하며 애플(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>), 마이크로소프트(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>), 엔비디아(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) 같은 미국의 가장 가치 있고 강력한 비금융 대기업들로 구성되어 있다. 5년 수익률이 무려 124%에 달하는 등 항상 주주들에게 좋은 수익률을 기록해 왔다. 최근 수치 기준 1년 수익률은 10%이다. 0.20%의 낮은 운용보수율과 약 0.60%의 배당수익률은 안정성과 성장성을 함께 원하는 가치에 민감한 투자자에게 바람직한 선택이다. QQQ의 실적은 최근 인공지능 투자가 급증하고 일부 주요 종목의 1분기 실적이 호조를 보인 데 힘입은 바도 크다.
반면 CQQQ 펀드는 규제 변화, 지정학적 트렌드, 다른 유형의 기술 열망에 영향을 받는 더 복잡한 이야기를 공유한다. 이 ETF는 &#8216;FTSE China Incl A 25% Technology Capped Index&#8217;를 추종하며 텐센트(OTCPK:<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/tcehy">TCEHY)</a>, PDD 홀딩스(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PDD#NASDAQ">PDD</a>), 메이투안 등 중국 최고 기술주를 보유하고 있다. CQQQ는 최근 1년 수익률 21%를 기록하며 QQQ의 성과를 상회하는 놀라운 회복세를 보였다. 하지만 3년 및 5년 수익률이 마이너스를 기록하는 등 여전히 어려움을 겪고 있다. 또한 이 펀드는 0.65%의 높은 운용보수율과 0.25%의 낮은 배당수익률을 보이고 있다.
QQQ와 CQQQ의 극적인 성과 지표 격차는 미국과 중국 기술 생태계의 상이한 현실을 잘 나타낸다. QQQ의 지속적인 상승 궤적은 안정적인 수익과 글로벌 영향력을 갖춘 대형주들이 주도하는 시장을 반영한다. 반면 CQQQ는 수년간의 규제 강화, 경제 불확실성, 투자자들의 회의론에 따라 회복 단계를 거치고 있다. 최근 랠리는 투자자들의 낙관론이 다시 살아나고 있음을 나타내지만, 변동성이 커진 만큼 위험에 더 많이 노출되는 태도가 필요하다.
투자자에게 QQQ에 투자할지 CQQQ에 투자할지는 승자를 선택하는 것보다 자신의 투자 세계관에 충실해야 한다. 일반적으로 안정적인 규제 체제에서 잘 알려진 시장 선도 기업에 대한 확실한 노출을 원하는 투자자에게는 QQQ가 선호될 수 있다. 그러나 빠르게 변화하는 중국 기술 분야의 잠재적 상승세에 더 많이 노출되기를 원하는 투자자에게는 CQQQ가 더 매력적일 수 있다.

미국과 중국은 도널드 트럼프 미국 대통령과 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/china" target="_blank" rel="noopener">시진핑 중국 국가주석</a>의 6월 "생일 정상회담"을 위한 초기 협상을 진행하고 있다.
무슨 일 있었나: 월스트리트저널에 따르면, 트럼프 행정부가 협상에서 우위를 점하기 위해 중국에 대한 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/trump-tariffs" target="_blank" rel="noopener">관세 및 무역</a> 조치를 강화하는 가운데 정상회담 논의가 이루어졌다.
트럼프(1946년 6월 14일생)와 시진핑(1953년 6월 15일생)의 생일인 6월을 전후로 정상회담이 열린다면, 세계 시장을 뒤흔들고 있는 무역 긴장 속에서 우호적인 분위기를 조성할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다. 트럼프의 11월 대선 승리 이후 양국 정상은 정상회담 개최에 관심을 보였지만, 아직 구체적인 계획은 없다.
중국은 협상에 적극적인 것으로 알려졌다. 정상회담을 통해 미국의 추가 관세와 기술 제한이 늦춰지기를 바라고 있기 때문이다. 중국의 최근 수출 데이터는 예상치에 미치지 못했고, 중국은 디플레이션에 직면해 있다. 트럼프 행정부는 최근 미국의 펜타닐 위기에서 중국의 역할을 언급하며 중국 수입품에 대한 관세를 약 35%로 인상했다고 월스트리트저널이 보도했다.
왜 중요한가: 트럼프가 2024년 대선에서 승리한 이후로 미국과 중국의 지정학적 관계는 개선되지 않았다.
조 바이든 전 대통령은 트럼프의 대선 승리 이후 페루 리마에서 시 주석과 한 번 만났다. 그 전에 그들은 2023년에 만나 세계 경제, 공급망 붕괴, 그리고 보호 무역주의의 증가를 "심각한 문제"로 논의했다.
<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/asia/23/11/35814525/historic-biden-xi-jinping-meeting-paves-way-for-joint-efforts-in-ai-climate-change" target="_blank" rel="noopener">당시</a> 시진핑은 "중국과 미국이 서로 등을 돌리는 것은 선택 사항이 아니다&#8221;라고 말했다.
그러나 트럼프가 1월에 취임하자마자 모든 중국 수입품에 관세를 부과하는 것이 최우선 과제였다. 최근 3월 4일, 트럼프 행정부는 중국산 수입품에 대한 관세를 20%로 두 배로 인상했다.
<a href="https://apnews.com/article/china-us-tariffs-farm-soy-trump-7442b02ac829347f0d4fc6ad0955d368" target="_blank" rel="noopener">지난주</a> AP 통신에 따르면, 중국은 자체적인 보복관세로 대응했다.
3월 7일 금요일, 중국 전국인민대표회의 중 열린 기자회견에서 중국의 외교부부장인 왕이는 중국을 안정화시키는 글로벌 세력으로 자리매김하면서 미국을 "<a href="https://www.npr.org/2025/03/07/nx-s1-5320802/china-us-tariffs-gaza-ukraine-russia-trump" target="_blank" rel="noopener">양면성</a>"을 가진 국가라고 비판했다. 그는 미국에 대응하는 중국의 역할은 국제 형세에 흔들리지 않는 "닻"(anchor)이라고 강조했다.
양국이 경제, 기술, 전략적 경쟁을 벌이고 있는 가운데, 이번 정상회담이 개최된다면 미중 관계에 있어 중요한 전환점이 될 것이다.
주목해야 할 ETF: 주목해야 할 주요 상장지수펀드(ETF)는 iShares MSCI China ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MCHI#NASDAQ">MCHI</a>)로, 보유 자산 중 가장 큰 비중을 중국 선전 소재의 텐센트(OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TCEHY#OTC">TCEHY</a>)에 할당하고 있다.
또한 SPDR S&amp;P China ETF(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GXC#NYSE">GXC</a>)와 Invesco China Technology ETF(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CQQQ#NYSE">CQQQ</a>)도 있으며, 이들은 모두 지정학적 상황 변화에 특히 민감하다.

트럼프와 시진핑, 무역 긴장 속 '생일 정상회담' 논의 중: WSJ 보도

중국의 기술 부문이 강력한 반등을 보이면서 투자자들은 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs">ETF를 통해 이 분야에 투자하려는 경향이 높아지고</a> 있다.
인터넷 대기업, 광범위한 기술 기업 또는 주요 중국 기업들을 혼합한 ETF는 중국의 혁신 붐을 경험할 수 있는 다각화된 방법을 제공한다.
중국의 반등하는 기술 섹터에 접근할 수 있는 세 가지 ETF를 소개한다.

<ul>
<li>Invesco China Technology ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CQQQ#NYSE">CQQQ</a>): 이 ETF는 중국의 기술 대기업들에 집중적으로 투자한다. 또한 인공지능(AI), 전자 상거래 및 클라우드 컴퓨팅의 선두에 있는 텐센트(OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TCEHY#OTC">TCEHY</a>), PDD 홀딩스(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PDD#NASDAQ">PDD</a>) 및 바이두(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BIDU#NASDAQ">BIDU</a>)와 같은 주요 기업들이 포함된 FTSE China Incl A 25% Technology Capped Index를 반영한다. 최근 바이두 클라우드와 텐센트 클라우드는 딥시크(DeepSeek)의 AI 모델을 자사 플랫폼에 통합했다. 딥시크의 상승세로 인해 두 회사 모두 성장을 경험했고 CQQQ도 함께 상승했다. 이 ETF는 올해 현재까지 13.5% 상승했으며, 지난 1년 동안 45% 상승했다.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>KraneShares CSI China Internet ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KWEB#NYSE">KWEB</a>): 이 ETF는 중국의 주요 인터넷 기업들에 대한 노출을 제공한다. CSI Overseas China Internet Index를 반영하며, 알리바바(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BABA#NYSE">BABA</a>), 텐센트 및 바이두와 같은 주요 기업들이 포함되어 있다. 알리바바의 최신 AI 모델은 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/43311376/alibaba-unveils-qwen25-max-claims-it-beats-deepseek-and-openai-in-ai-performance-race">여러 테스트에서</a> 메타 플랫폼스(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>)의 라마(Llama)와 딥시크의 V3를 제치며 주목받았다. 이로 인해 알리바바의 주가가 급등하였고, KWEB도 함께 상승했다. 월스트리트 중개인들이 중국의 가치 할인이 사라질 것에 대해 더 낙관적으로 변하면서, KWEB은 외국 자금 유입 증가의 혜택을 볼 가능성이 있다. 이 ETF는 올해 현재까지 12.6% 상승했으며, 지난 1년 동안 32.5% 상승했다.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>iShares MSCI China ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MCHI#NASDAQ">MCHI</a>): 이 ETF는 더 넓은 노출을 제공하면서도 기술 주식에 대한 상당한 할당을 유지한다. 텐센트, 알리바바, 메이투안 및 샤오미와 같은 중국의 가장 크고 유동성이 높은 기업들이 MCHI의 보유종목 중 하나이다. HSBC는 최근 중국과 신흥 시장 간의 가치 격차가 좁혀질 수 있다고 언급했다. 이는 글로벌 자금이 중국 주식으로 유입될 때 발생하는 일이다. 도이치 뱅크도 같은 의견을 보였다.</li>
</ul>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">시장 개요</h3>
현재 항셍 기술 지수는 예상 주가수익비율(P/E)이 17배로 거래되고 있으며, 이는 나스닥 100의 27배 평가액보다 상당히 저렴하다고 블룸버그가 수집한 데이터에 따르면 나타났다. 이는 가격 상승의 여지가 충분하다는 것을 시사하여 MCHI를 매력적인 옵션으로 만든다. 이 ETF는 올해 현재까지 8.32% 상승했으며, 지난 12개월 동안 31.25% 상승했다.
수년간의 규제 악재와 경제 불확실성에도 불구하고 중국의 기술 섹터는 강력하게 반등하고 있다. AI 혁신의 급증과 유리한 가치 평가가 항셍 기술 지수를 상승장으로 이끌었으며, 월스트리트 애널리스트들은 이 분야에 대해 점점 더 낙관적이라고 블룸버그가 보도했다. 샤오미와 알리바바와 같은 대기업들이 이 반등을 선도하고 있다.
한편, 블룸버그는 도이치 뱅크의 애널리스트들이 중국의 혁신 주도 반등이 글로벌 투자자들을 국가의 주식으로 급격히 돌리게 할 것이라고 주장했다고 보도했다. 이는 지정학적 위험에도 불구하고 발생하는 일이다.
유리한 가치 평가가 긍정적인 분위기를 강화하는 데 도움을 주었다. 도이치 뱅크의 피터 밀리켄(Peter Milliken)은 연구 메모에서 다음과 같이 말했다: &#8220;우리는 2025년에 투자 세계가 중국이 나머지 세계를 능가하고 있다는 것을 깨닫는 해가 될 것이라고 생각한다.&#8221;

며칠 전, 시장은 2024년에 중국 주식이 3년간의 하락세를 뒤로하고 반등한 것에 고무되었다. 그러나 중국 주식과 이에 노출된 ETF들에는 불확실성의 그림자가 드리워져 있다.
바이든 행정부가 두 개의 중국 기술 대기업인 텐센트 홀딩스(Tencent Holdings)와 컨템포러리 암페렉스 테크놀로지(CATL)를 블랙리스트에 추가하겠다고 발표한 것은 글로벌 시장에 충격파를 일으켰다. 이는 이미 불안정한 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/china">미국-중국 경제 관계</a>에 미칠 영향을 투자자들이 우려하기 때문이다.
세계 최대 게임 퍼블리셔인 텐센트와 CATL은 1월 6일 주가가 급락했다.

주목할 만한 ETF들 중에는 iShares MSCI China ETF(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MCHI#NASDAQ">MCHI</a>)가 있다. 이 ETF는 전체 보유 자산 중 15.40%를 텐센트에 할당하고 있어, 1월 7일 순자산가치(NAV)가 1% 하락했다.
SPDR S&amp;P China ETF(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GXC#NYSE">GXC</a>): 이 ETF는 다양한 보유 종목으로 유명하며, 텐센트에 11.42%를 할당하여 가장 큰 비중을 차지하고 있다. 알리바바(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BABA#NYSE">BABA</a>) 및 메이투안(Meituan)과 같은 다른 주요 중국 기업들도 포트폴리오에서 중요한 위치를 차지하고 있다.
Invesco China Technology ETF(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CQQQ#NYSE">CQQQ</a>): 이 ETF는 자산의 100%를 중국 기술 주식에 할당하며, 지정학적 발전에 특히 민감하다. 또한 텐센트는 총 자산의 10.76%를 차지하고 있다.
또한, 테슬라 주식에 대한 노출이 높은 ETF들, 예를 들어 Simplify Volt TSLA Revolution ETF(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TESL#NYSE">TESL</a>)도 CATL이 테슬라의 주요 배터리 공급업체라는 이유로 영향을 받고 있다.
텐센트와 CATL을 &#8216;중국 군사 회사&#8217; 목록에 추가하는 이 조치는 미국의 중국의 군사적 및 산업적 야망에 대한 대응 노력의 일환이었다. 이 지정은 즉각적인 제재를 부과하지 않지만, 미국 기업들이 이들 기업과 거래하지 않도록 단념시키는 효과가 있어, <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-01-07/us-blacklist-of-china-s-tech-giants-risks-even-faster-decoupling?srnd=homepage-asia&amp;sref=TBDibEcD">블룸버그</a>가 언급한 바와 같이 투자자 심리에도 영향을 미친다.
현재 블랙리스트에는 134개의 중국 기업들이 포함되어 있으며, 이 중 4개는 시가총액 기준으로 중국 상위 20위 안에 들어, 총 가치가 거의 1조 달러에 달한다.
이제 ETF 투자자들은 중국 기업들에 직접 또는 간접적으로 노출된 펀드가 증가된 변동성을 경험할 수 있음을 주의 깊게 지켜보고 있다.

미국이 잠든 사이 아시아는 혼조, 유럽은 대부분 하락; 달러는 13개월 만에 최고치

최근 몇 주 동안 중국 주식이 부양 정책에 힘입어 급격한 반등을 보였다. iShares MSCI China ETF(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MCHI#NYSE">MCHI</a>)가 추적하는 MSCI China Index는 9월 24일부터 10월 7일 사이에 35% 이상 급등했다.
뱅크 오브 아메리카의 애널리스트 위니 우(Winnie Wu)와 윌리 찬(Willie Chan)이 설명한 바와 같이, 이 &#8220;빠르고 격렬한&#8221; 랠리는 전 세계 다른 주요 시장의 성과를 초과했으며, SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>)로 추적되는 S&amp;P 500 지수의 연초 대비 상승 폭의 두 배 이상에 달했다.
이 랠리는 중국 당국이 발표한 일련의 공격적인 통화 완화 정책과 정부의 불안정한 부동산 시장 안정화에 대한 재확약으로 촉발되었다.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">연초 대비 성과: MSCI 차이나, S&amp;P 500 두 배 상승</h2>
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="wp-image-583894" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/07123344/image-41-1024x455.png" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/07123344/image-41-1024x455.png 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/07123344/image-41-300x133.png 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/07123344/image-41-768x342.png 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/07123344/image-41-1536x683.png 1536w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/07123344/image-41.png 1920w" alt="" width="1024" height="455" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">차트:<a href="https://bzresearch.myclickfunnels.com/benzinga-pro-content-webinar-registration/?utm_source=BZprocontent100724&amp;t=be2bearmibe3na1"> Benzinga Pro</a></figcaption></figure>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">2조 달러 규모의 시장 급등</h2>
9월 23일부터 30일까지 MSCI China Index는 거의 2조 달러의 시장 가치를 추가했다. 주요 수혜자는 귀주 마오타이(Kweichow Moutai)와 같은 블루칩 주식들이다. 귀주 마오타이는 39% 급등하여 880억 달러의 시가총액을 추가했으며, 텐센트 홀딩스 ADR(OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TCEHY#OTC">TCEHY</a>)은 15% 상승하여 700억 달러를 추가했다. 또한 알리바바 그룹 홀딩 – ADR (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BABA#NYSE">BABA</a>)는 27% 급등하여 580억 달러의 시가총액이 증가했다.
이러한 빠른 시장 상승은 투자자들 사이에서 중국 정책 당국이 경제적 도전 과제인 디플레이션 압박, 부동산 시장 침체 및 증가하는 지방 정부 부채 문제를 해결하기 위해 진지한 조치를 취하고 있다는 낙관론이 커지고 있음을 반영한다.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">주요 부양 조치가 랠리를 촉발</h2>
이 랠리는 9월 23일부터 시작된 일련의 예상치 못한 정책 발표로 촉발되었다. 이날 중국 인민은행(PBoC)은 14일 역환매조건부채권 금리를 10bp(베이시스 포인트) 인하하여 1.85%로 조정하고, 약 106억 달러(745억 위안)를 은행 시스템에 주입하여 시장을 놀라게 했다.
다음 날, PBoC 총재인 판궁성(Pan Gongsheng)은 더 큰 조치를 발표했다. 중앙은행은 지급준비율을 50bp 인하하여 약 1,425억 달러(1조 위안)를 금융 시스템에 주입할 것이며, 7일물 환매조건부채권 금리를 20bp 인하하고, 기준 대출 우대 금리와 기존 모기지 금리를 약 50bp 인하하겠다고 약속하여, 가계 이자 지급액을 약 210억 달러(1,500억 위안) 줄일 수 있다고 밝혔다.
그 후 9월 25일에는 PBoC가 1년 만기 중기대출금리(MLF)를 30bp 인하하고, 국영은행에 자본을 주입하겠다는 재정적 약속을 발표했습니다.
마지막으로, PBoC는 상업은행에게 기존 모기지 금리를 대출 우대 금리보다 30bp 이상 낮추도록 지시했다. 이 조치는 10월 31일 이전에 시행되어야 한다.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">중국 주식 ETF, 대규모 상승 기록</h2>
이러한 조치들은 중국 주식 ETF들이 S&amp;P 500 및 기타 글로벌 벤치마크를 상당히 초과하는 성과를 거두게 만들었다. 9월 24일부터 10월 7일 사이에 여러 중국 중심 ETF가 놀라운 상승률을 기록했다:
<ul>
<li>Invesco China Technology ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CQQQ#NYSE">CQQQ</a>): +52%</li>
<li>iShares MSCI China A ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CNYA#NYSE">CNYA</a>): +48%</li>

<li>iShares China Large-Cap ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FXI#NYSE">FXI</a>): +32%</li>
</ul>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">향후 주의사항: 조정 가능성</h2>
이번 랠리가 강력했지만, 뱅크 오브 아메리카의 애널리스트들은 주의가 필요하다고 조언했다.
애널리스트들은 &#8220;부동산 시장을 안정화하고 지방 정부 채무를 구조조정하기 위한 추가 재정적 자극과 과잉 생산/디플레이션 문제를 해결하기 위한 구조적 개혁이 필요하다&#8221;고 지적했다.
그들은 현재의 &#8220;모든 것을 사라&#8221; 단계가 긍정적인 촉매제가 더 이상 나타나지 않으면 곧 끝날 수 있다고 경고했다.
높은 베타를 가진 소비재, 부동산 및 중개 주식은 급격히 상승한 후 이익 실현의 첫 번째 대상이 될 수 있다. 그러나 애널리스트들은 장기 투자자들이 잠재적인 조정을 매수 기회로 볼 수 있다고 제안했다. 특히 대형 인터넷 주식과 고수익 국영기업(SOE) 섹터는 변동성이 적다고 평가했다.
2024년 4분기에 대해 뱅크 오브 아메리카는 인터넷(미디어, 온라인 소매), 보험 및 헬스케어(특히 생명 과학 및 생명공학) 섹터에 대해 긍정적인 전망을 유지하고 있다. 이들은 3분기 동안 강력한 성과를 보였다.
그들은 강력한 랠리 이후 중개 주식에 대해 신중하게 접근하고, 실적 하향 조정 및 매력적이지 않은 가치 평가로 인해 유틸리티(가스, 수도) 부문에 대해 하향 조정을 했다. 또한, 부동산, 자동차, 건축 자재 및 화학 부문에 대해서는 기본적인 회복이 더 오랜 시간이 걸릴 것이라고 믿고 부정적 입장을 유지하고 있다.

'빠르고 격렬한 랠리'가 올해 중국 주식을 S&P 500 수익 대비 두 배 상승의 견인

PDD 홀딩스(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PDD#NASDAQ">PDD</a>)의 미국 예탁증서(ADR)는 월요일에 거의 30% 급락해 회사가 2018년 상장한 이후 최악의 실적을 기록했다. 이러한 급격한 하락세는 이 회사의 암울한 2분기 실적과 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/08/40548945/temu-parent-pdd-posts-86-q2-topline-growth-stock-drops-after-ceo-flags-upcoming-challenges">더 비관적인 매출 전망</a>으로 인해 촉발된 광범위한 판매 압력으로 인해 발생했다.
이러한 매도세는 부진한 2분기 실적과 투자자의 신뢰를 떨어뜨린 암울한 매출 전망이 결합되어 발생했다.
중국 거대 소매업체는 분기별 매출이 970억 6천만 위안(134억 달러)으로 2023년 같은 분기의 522억 8천만 위안보다 86% 증가했다고 보고했다. 그러나 이 수치는 분석가 예상치인 137억 8천만 달러에 미치지 못했다.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">시장은 PDD의 실망스러운 2분기 실적을 응징, 골드만삭스는 긍정적인 전망 유지</h3>
골드만삭스의 애널리스트 로널드 겅(Ronald Keung)은 주가가 부정적인 시장 반응을 보인 것은 실적 발표를 앞두고 기대감이 높아진 탓이라고 언급했다. 주가는 강력한 실적을 예상하며 7월 말 이후 약 20% 상승해 120달러 초반대에서 거래되고 있었다.
겅은 또한 온라인 마케팅 서비스 성장 둔화의 초기 징후를 지적했는데, 이는 전년 대비 29% 증가로, 컨센서스 예상치인 36%에 미치지 못했다. 또한 경영진이 언급한 느린 매출 성장, 치열해진 경쟁으로 인한 변동하는 수익, 그리고 국내 수익성의 장기적인 감소 가능성도 우려를 더했다고 설명했다.
PDD 홀딩스의 회장 겸 공동 CEO인 레이 첸(Lei Chen)은 &#8220;지난 몇 분기 동안 우리가 이룬 견고한 진전에 고무되었지만, 앞으로 많은 도전 과제가 있을 것으로 보인다,&#8221;고 말했다.
&#8220;우리는 고품질 개발로 전환하고 지속 가능한 생태계를 조성하는 데 전념하고 있다. 우리는 플랫폼의 신뢰와 안전에 크게 투자하고, 고품질 상인들을 지원하며, 상인 생태계를 지속적으로 개선해 나갈 것이다. 단기적인 희생과 수익성 감소 가능성을 기꺼이 감수할 준비가 되어 있다,&#8221;고 첸이 덧붙였다.
실망스러운 실적에도 불구하고, 골드만삭스는 PDD에 대해 매수 등급을 유지했으며, 12개월 목표 주가를 184달러로 제시했다. 이는 현재 시장 수준에서 약 90%의 상승 여력을 의미한다.
투자은행은 PDD의 강력한 광고 기술 역량, 비용 경쟁력이 있는 중국 공급업체, 유리한 위험 대비 보상 프로필을 강조하며, 현재의 시가총액이 PDD의 온라인 마켓플레이스인 테무(Temu)에 대한 평가를 반영하지 않고 있다고 언급했다.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">PDD에 상당한 비중을 둔 ETF에 큰 타격</h3>
PDD에 상당한 비중을 둔 ETF에 큰 타격 PDD의 극적인 하루 주가 하락은 해당 주식에 상당한 비중을 둔 여러 상장지수펀드(ETF)에 파급 효과를 미쳤다. 가장 큰 영향을 받은 ETF는 다음과 같다:
