U.S. interest rate cuts U.S. stocks rise early Mainland A-shares and Hong Kong stocks lag behind On the flip side, when the U.S. raises interest rates, Mainland A-shares and Hong Kong stocks drop first, while U.S. stocks lag behind So here's what it looks like: In September 2024, the U.S. officially cuts interest rates, Mainland A-shares start to rise, But U.S. stocks have already been rising for over a year, Because U.S. stocks start climbing as soon as there's an expectation of rate cuts. By September 2026, when the expectation of U.S. interest rate hikes begins, The A-share bull market ends and starts to decline, While U.S. stocks are just beginning to fluctuate. The timing aligns perfectly: U.S. rate cuts trigger an A-share bull market, U.S. rate hikes trigger an A-share bear market.
