FXI Stock Recent News

The U.S.-China trade war has led to significant volatility in Chinese stocks, particularly those trading on U.S. exchanges, due to unprecedented tariffs. iShares China Large-Cap ETF has underperformed compared to the S&P 500 Index, with recent trends showing marginal improvement due to Chinese economic stimulus measures. The bearish case for the FXI ETF includes ongoing U.S.-China tensions, potential delisting of Chinese companies, and geopolitical risks like Taiwan.

Rumors of the Trump administration considering delisting Chinese shares from U.S. indices could lead to significant market turmoil and capital flight. Despite potential delisting risks, I believe Chinese stocks are undervalued and present a generational buying opportunity, especially if trade negotiations progress. Chinese government actions to prop up the market and recent economic growth indicate a strong long-term trajectory for Chinese stocks.

China has warned it will retaliate against countries that cooperate with the U.S. in ways that compromise Beijing's interests, according to a statement from the Chinese Ministry of Commerce. The threat comes as U.S. President Donald Trump's administration is reportedly planning to use tariff negotiations to pressure U.S. partners to limit their dealings with China.

A delisting would take time and send a serious ripple through global markets.

Donald Trump has exempted reciprocal tariffs on certain electronic Chinese imports, giving markets a slight reprieve as the U.S.-China trade war heats up.
