Morgan Stanley Raises Q2 2027 Targets for Chinese Stock Indexes

Morgan Stanley has increased its Q2 2027 targets for four major Chinese stock indexes, setting the Hang Seng Index at 28,400 and the CSI 300 Index at 5,400. According to NS3.AI, Laura Wang and her team anticipate a moderate rally in the Chinese market by the second quarter of 2027. This optimism is attributed to improved corporate earnings, stronger upstream supply chain positioning, and a more robust Renminbi. Morgan Stanley expresses a preference for A-shares over offshore markets and emphasizes thematic stock picking, while cautioning that short-term volatility may continue.
