On Tuesday, Chinese stocks experienced a decline, causing a ripple effect across Asian markets, following Beijing's decision not to reveal substantial stimulus plans at the onset of its week-long annual session of parliament, the National People's Congress. The absence of significant economic support measures disappointed investors, contributing to the stumble in Chinese equities and dragging down other Asian peers in the process. This development added to existing concerns in regional markets, which had already witnessed a retreat from record highs on Wall Street the previous day. Investors were closely monitoring Beijing's policy direction amid uncertainties surrounding economic recovery and global market stability.
