Stock investors will zero in on China’s annual parliamentary gathering this week for signals it could revive equity momentum, as fears of artificial intelligence-driven disruption unsettle global markets.
More than 2,000 delegates from across the nation will convene in Beijing for the annual meeting of the National People’s Congress (NPC), China’s top legislature, scheduled to open on Thursday.
NPC deputies are also set to review a draft of the country’s next five-year plan, outlining China’s development priorities through 2030.
The NPC traditionally opens a day after the convening of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference, an advisory body gathering figures from outside the ruling Communist Party. Together, the annual events – known as the “two sessions” – offer a glimpse into China’s policy trajectory.
