The University of Michigan reported a sharp rise in inflation expectations, with the one-year outlook hitting 4.3%, the highest since November 2023. February&#8217;s jobs report showed mixed results: job growth slowed, but unemployment dropped more than expected, and wages surged.

Asia Markets Mixed, Europe Advances, Gold Hits Record High On Safe-Haven Demand - Global Markets Today While US Slept

As China's tech sector stages a strong comeback, investors are increasingly looking at <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs">ETFs as a way to gain exposure</a> to this space. 
Whether it's internet giants, broad technology firms, or a mix of leading Chinese companies, ETFs offer a diversified way to take a bite of surrounding China's innovation boom.
Here are three ETFs that provide investors with access to China's rebounding tech sector.

<ul>
<li>Invesco China Technology ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CQQQ#NYSE">CQQQ</a>): This ETF provides concentrated exposure to China's tech giants. It also mirrors the FTSE China Incl A 25% Technology Capped Index, which includes major players like Tencent (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TCEHY#OTC">TCEHY</a>), PDD Holdings (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PDD#NASDAQ">PDD</a>), and Baidu (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BIDU#NASDAQ">BIDU</a>), companies at the forefront of AI, e-commerce, and cloud computing. Recently, Baidu Cloud and Tencent Cloud integrated DeepSeek&#8217;s AI model into their platforms. With DeepSeek's upward rise, both companies witnessed a surge, and pulled CQQQ up along with it. The ETF has rallied 13.5% year-to-date and 45% in the past year.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>KraneShares CSI China Internet ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KWEB#NYSE">KWEB</a>): This ETF provides exposure to China's big internet names, mirroring the CSI Overseas China Internet Index. The fund&#8217;s holdings include major players like Alibaba (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BABA#NYSE">BABA</a>), Tencent, and Baidu. Alibaba's latest AI model has <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/43311376/alibaba-unveils-qwen25-max-claims-it-beats-deepseek-and-openai-in-ai-performance-race">reportedly outperformed</a> Meta Platforms (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) Llama and DeepSeek's V3 in various tests. This led the company's stock to surge, lifting KWEB along with it. As Wall Street brokers turn more optimistic on China's valuation discount disappearing, KWEB stands to benefit from increased foreign inflows. The ETF has grown 12.6% year-to-date and 32.5% in the past year.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>iShares MSCI China ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MCHI#NASDAQ">MCHI</a>): This ETF provides a broader exposure while maintaining access to substantial allocation to technology stocks. China's largest and most liquid companies, including Tencent, Alibaba, Meituan and Xiaomi are among MCHI&#8217;s holdings. HSBC recently noted that the valuation gap between China and emerging markets may narrow as global funds flow into Chinese stocks. Deutsche Bank echoed the sentiment.</li>
</ul>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Market Overview</h3>
The Hang Seng Tech Index is currently trading at 17 times forward earnings estimates, significantly cheaper than the Nasdaq 100's 27 times valuation, according data compiled by Bloomberg. This suggests ample room for price appreciation, making MCHI an appealing option. The ETF has climbed 8.32% this year thus far, and 31.25% in the past 12 months.
After years of regulatory headwinds and economic uncertainty, China's tech sector is making a roaring comeback. A surge in AI innovation and favorable valuations have propelled the Hang Seng Tech Index into a bull market, with Wall Street analysts increasingly bullish on the space, said Bloomberg in a report. Heavyweights like Xiaomi and Alibaba are among the companies leading the rally.
Meanwhile, Bloomberg reported that analysts at Deutsche Bank argue that China's innovation-driven resurgence will force global investors to turn sharply toward the nation's stocks, despite geopolitical risks.
Favorable valuations have helped reinforce the upbeat sentiment. As Deutsche Bank's Peter Milliken put it in a research note: "We think 2025 is the year the investing world realizes China is outcompeting the rest of the world."

In economic data, the S&amp;P Global Services PMI dropped to 52.8 in January from 56.8 in December, falling short of the anticipated 56.5. Meanwhile, the S&amp;P Global Manufacturing PMI edged up to 50.1 in January from 49.4 the previous month, exceeding market expectations of 49.7.
Most S&amp;P 500 sectors rose, led by communication services, utilities, and consumer staples, while information technology and energy lagged.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average was down 0.32% and closed at 44,424.25, the S&amp;P 500 closed lower by 0.29% at 6,101.24, and the Nasdaq Composite fell 0.50% to finish at 19,954.30.

Asia Markets Mixed, US Futures Plunge On AI Rivalry, Dollar Slides - Global Markets Today While US Slept

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.

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">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.

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>

</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:
