China A Shares

The CSI 300 fell 4.39% this week on lower volume and remains in a Confirmed Uptrend
with three distribution days, adding one Thursday. The index had its largest weekly loss since
April. Resistance was at Monday’s high of 4,878 (+7.3%) and support lies at the 21-DMA
(4,430, -2.5%) followed by the 50-DMA (4,150, -8.7%). China’s economic data showed
signs of recovery: GDP grew 3.2% y/y in the second quarter, higher than expectations of
2.5%. June retail sales fell 1.8% y/y, less than the expected 0.3% growth but beat May’s 2.8%
drop. Industrial profits increased 4.8% y/y in June, better than consensus of 4.5%. Real estate
investments grew 1.9% y/y for the first half of the year. June exports and imports rose 0.5% and
2.7%, y/y, respectively, both beating consensus. Escalating China-U.S. tensions and the likely
slowing pace of policy easing after the strong data dampened investor sentiment. We recommend
investors stay disciplined in this volatile market and be selective of quality stocks with strong
support levels or breaking out of pivot.

The CSI 300 fell 6.2% on lower volume this week. We downgraded the market to a Downtrend as the index, following the global selloff, slumped 4.3% and breached its 200-DMA Monday. The index hit 52-week lows of 3,503 intraday Thursday and is testing persistent support at the gap of 3,520–3,556. If 3,520 (-3.6%) fails, there would no clear support until the 2019 lows of 2,935. The next resistance lies at the 200-DMA at 3,900 (+6.7%).
