Pinduoduo Inc’s stock price surged by 13%. Moreover, Chinese tech giants such as Alibaba and JD.com also performed exceptionally well in the U.S. markets, after performing extremely poorly in the Hong Kong stock exchange.

The Outlook of the Chinese Stock Market

Earlier in the month of November, the Chinese government decided to relax the Covid 19 restrictions in China.

Given the current turmoil in China over the Covid 19 issue, the Chinese stock market gained over 19%, marking November 2022 as the best-performing month of this century.

However, the growth only lived shortly and the Chinese stock market has gone down rapidly, leaving investors in chaos.
