KE Holdings Inc. (BEKE), a leading integrated online and offline platform for housing transactions and services in China, saw its stock surge 8.08% in pre-market trading on Monday. This upward movement coincided with China's announcement of adopting an "appropriately loose" monetary policy in 2025, marking the first such shift towards easing since 2010.

According to state media reports, the decision was made during a Politburo meeting, where top Communist Party officials outlined plans to support economic growth through more proactive fiscal and monetary policies, as well as measures to boost consumption and domestic demand. This policy shift is expected to have a positive impact on Chinese companies, including KE Holdings, as it aims to stimulate the economy and improve market sentiment.

KE Holdings, operating through its subsidiaries Lianjia, Beike, and other brands, provides housing transaction services, including existing home transaction services, new home transaction services, and home renovation services. As a major player in the real estate industry, KE Holdings is well-positioned to benefit from the government's efforts to revive economic growth and consumer confidence.
