Shao Zhiming, senior investment strategist of Credit Suisse Asia Pacific, maintains a bullish optimistic view of the Greater China stock market. The Shanghai Stock Index has a target of 3,400 points. The A-shares have driven the H-shares to continue to rise. In contrast, Japanese stocks have not seen any new growth momentum. The target for the Dongzheng Index is 1600 points (1607 points yesterday). He expects Hong Kong stocks to be consolidated in the short-term. In view of the fact that many investors have not entered the market since the beginning of the year, I believe that the downward pressure is not big, and driven by A-shares, Hong Kong stocks will have room for upward adjustment in the next three months.
