**China Healthcare Stocks Defy Global Market Chaos**

Investors are pouring money into Chinese healthcare stocks listed in Hong Kong. They are seeking safety as global markets swing wildly due to Middle East tensions. The Hang Seng Healthcare Index has jumped roughly 13% since March 23. This far outpaces the 6% gain of Hong Kong’s main market index. The healthcare index tracks major Chinese drug companies like Akeso and Innovent Biologics. Analysts say the conflict in the Middle East has created major uncertainty. This has caused volatility in commodity prices worldwide. In response, offshore capital is moving into sectors seen as stable, like China's healthcare industry. The trend highlights how investors use "defensive" stocks—companies in essential services like health—as shelters during turbulent times.
