The split is the story: the Shanghai Composite's modest gain masks weakness in the growth-heavy ChiNext, CSI 300 and STAR 50, while the small-cap CSI 1000 leads. That pattern points to rotation within mainland equities rather than broad risk appetite, with large-cap and tech names losing ground to smaller caps. Whether the CSI 1000's outperformance persists into the afternoon, or the large-cap drag eventually pulls the headline index lower, is the open question.
