The NDRC has now announced plans for a press conference on Tuesday morning.

A somewhat unexpected move, although possibly a step up from the Ministry of Finance in that the NDRC - as is typical in its role - could provide clarity in terms of government plans to support the economy. I’d expect the focus to be on the property sector.

Whatever the mode, a continued stream of communications will almost certainly keep the animal spirits for equities for in overdrive.

Could this me more fiscal support? I read the measure they released so far was basically ‘stimmy’ cheques and vouchers

Actually, all it’s been so far is monetary support. Been no formal fiscal even though all you read all over is that there has been some sort of fiscal support. And there’s been no direct to household support.

This NDRC press conference could lead to more insight to the fiscal side of things.
