Chinese equity markets extended their recovery on Wednesday, with the blue-chip CSI 300 index climbing 0.7% by the lunch break and the broader Shanghai Composite gaining 0.5%.
The rally was driven primarily by strength in artificial intelligence and semiconductor shares, which have emerged as the leading sector following a period of heavy selling pressure.
The advance marks a continuation of the momentum that began Tuesday, when technology and semiconductor stocks staged a sharp rebound after weighing heavily on the previous session.
Investor sentiment appears to have stabilized, with buying interest returning to the tech-heavy segments of the market that had been underperforming.
This repricing reflects a shift in market focus toward domestic technology resilience and policy support.
The semiconductor sector, in particular, has benefited from renewed confidence in China's push for self-sufficiency in critical components, alongside broader manufacturing data that has shown signs of stabilization.
