China equities set to shine


CHINA’S equities look set for a strong 2026, with policymakers and markets aligning on growth and innovation. The country’s ability to stand firm against US trade pressures reflects the narrowing technological gap between the two economies, setting the stage for a more constructive year ahead, according to Franklin Templeton.

“We anticipate a less confrontational approach towards trade in 2026 as both sides seek to focus on growing their economies,” the asset management group says in a recent report.
