China’s Shanghai Composite Opens Up 0.08% at 3658.72

The growth-heavy ChiNext and STAR 50 outpacing the main boards signals that risk appetite is concentrated in tech and innovation names rather than broad blue-chip exposure. That divergence matters because it suggests the session's tone is being set by a narrow segment, not a uniform rally — a pattern that tends to be less durable than a wide advance. Whether STAR 50's lead persists through the close, or fades as the broader indices catch up or stall, is the open question worth watching.
