The Direxion Daily FTSE China Bull 3X Shares (YINN), a leveraged exchange-traded fund (ETF) tracking Chinese stocks, plummeted by a staggering 12.50% on Monday, November 6th, as investors grew increasingly concerned about the potential for escalating trade tensions between the U.S. and China if Donald Trump secures a victory in the ongoing presidential election.
Reports of Trump's lead in the election count sent shockwaves through Asian markets, as the former president has consistently taken a tough stance on China and imposed tariffs on Chinese goods during his previous term. The Hang Seng Index, a barometer of Hong Kong-listed stocks, plunged by 2.83%, while the Chinese offshore yuan weakened by more than 1% against the U.S. dollar.
Analysts and financial institutions, including Bank of America's global research team, warned that a Trump victory could lead to significantly higher tariffs on Chinese imports, further straining the already tense trade relationship between the world's two largest economies. This sentiment was echoed in the pre-market trading activity, as major Chinese tech giants like Alibaba, JD.com, and Baidu saw their shares slide amid fears of potential trade disruptions.
