JUST IN 🚨 : China expected to announce a new stimulus package of $283 Billion
Investors are on tenterhooks as Beijing prepares to deliver fresh policies over the weekend that could jumpstart its economy. China’s Finance Minister Lan Fo’an is set to hold a press conference at 10 a.m. on Saturday local time on “intensifying” fiscal stimulus policies, the country’s State Council Information Office said. With Beijing at risk of missing its full year economic growth target of 5%, some analysts are confident that authorities are ready to deliver major fiscal stimulus at the highly anticipated event, while others remain skeptical. Most economists expect some sort of additional stimulus, but there are many differing views on its size as well as the priorities of the package. Some have floated a figure between two and three trillion yuan (the equivalent of $282.8 billion to $424.2 billion), while others have suggested 10 trillion yuan ($1.4 trillion).

Half the gains since China's bazooka wiped out in an hour as authorities disappoint markets; Hong Kong stocks plunge more than 6%.
The rally in Chinese markets lost steam on Tuesday after a briefing from the country’s National Development and Reform Commission provided few details on further stimulus. While mainland China’s CSI 300 skyrocketed over 10% at the open Tuesday in its return from the Golden Week holiday, the index pared gains to a 5% rise later in the session. Hong Kong’s Hang Seng index briefly plummeted over 10%, before recovering slightly to a smaller loss of 6.4%. Zheng Shanjie, chairman of China’s National Development and Reform Commission, on Tuesday pledged a raft of actions to bolster the country’s economy during a highly-anticipated press conference. But he stopped short of announcing any new major stimulus plans, underwhelming investors and weakening the rally in the mainland Chinese markets. China will speed up special purpose bond issuance to local governments to support regional economic growth, the senior NDRC official said. Zheng said ultra-long special sovereign bonds, totaling 1 trillion yuan, have been fully deployed to fund local projects, and he vowed that China will continue to issue ultra-long special treasury bonds next year. The central government will release a 100 billion yuan investment plan for next year by the end of this month, ahead of schedule, a senior official added. Zheng also promised that more measures are coming that aims to support the property market and boost domestic spending. Source: CNBC, zerohedge
