** The CSI300 Index was up 1.6% so far this week, while the Hang Seng Index rose 2.6%.
** China's stock market in 2026 is expected to focus on technology and dividend plays, with rising indexes likely to bring greater volatility, making timing crucial and trading indicators worth watching, said analysts at Huaxi Securities.
** Shares of sportswear firms Anta Sports Productsand Li Ningboth edged down after Reuters reported the two companies are among those exploring a potential takeover of struggling German sportswear brand Puma.

** Charles Wang, chairman of Shenzhen Dragon Pacific Capital Management Co, said he held a sizable position in property stocks last year, but has since gradually cut exposure.
** If the government says this should be handled under "market-based principles", the market must bear some losses and bondholders must take some losses, Wang said.
