Chinese Broad-Based ETFs See Sharp Volume Surge as Funds Buy the Dip

The signal here is not the price action but the buyer: turnover in core index ETFs running at or near a full session's pace by the half-day mark points to institutional, index-level accumulation rather than retail dip-buying. That distinction matters because it suggests some funds are treating the pullback as a valuation entry point even while broader sentiment stays defensive. Whether that counter-trend bid persists into the close, or fades as it did in prior sessions, is the open question worth watching.
