FTSE China A50 futures close 0.55% higher at 13,101 in overnight session

The overnight futures move is a positioning signal rather than a verdict, since it reflects how traders are leaning before the cash market reopens and can be revised quickly once onshore liquidity arrives. Its significance lies in what it says about sentiment toward China's largest listed companies, which anchor broad A-share exposure. The open question is whether the gain holds once cash trading begins or fades as real flows replace pre-open positioning.
