IPC Index — Mexico MarketThe Shanghai Composite dropped 0.5% to around 3,970 while the Shenzhen Component fell 0.1% to 13,200 on Monday, extending losses from the prior session as slowing economic activity and ongoing property sector challenges weighed on investor sentiment. Recent economic reports, including fixed asset investment, industrial production, and retail sales, all disappointed. Rising tensions between China and Japan, following Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi’s remarks on Taiwan, also pressured markets. Notable declines included Contemporary Amperex (-3.7%), Sungrow Power (-1.1%), TBEA Co (-1.9%), Suzhou TFC Optical (-4%) and Aluminum Corp (-3.9%). Meanwhile, there are no major economic releases scheduled for China this week, though the People’s Bank of China is expected to hold loan prime rates steady.
