On Saturday, China agreed on more stimulus, which will entail higher debt. Beijing assured subsidies to low-income groups, property market support, and replenishment of state banks’ capital, Reuters cites Finance Minister Lan Foan.

However, the lack of disclosure of an actual figure for the stimulus left the Street anxious.

Prior reports indicated China plans to issue special sovereign bonds of 2 trillion yuan ($284.4 billion) to help governments tackle their debt problems and subsidize purchases of home appliances and other goods. According to reports, China is also eyeing up to 1 trillion yuan of capital in its biggest state banks.

The Chinese stocks got battered by the domestic antitrust crackdown and geopolitical tensions with the U.S., which restricted their access to sophisticated artificial intelligence technology, pivotal to every industry’s prospects ranging from e-commerce to EV and more.

Price Actions: At the last check on Monday, BABA stock was down 1.85% to $108.10 in the premarket session. BIDU is down 2.60%, JD is down 0.64%, NIO is down 2.72%, and XPEV is down 5.04%.
