description: "China stocks fell for the third consecutive week, with the CSI300 Index down 0.9% and the Shanghai Composite Index down 1%. Concerns over Middle East tensions and oil supply issues contributed to a risk-averse market mood. Analysts noted that external volatility is affecting sentiment, while low inflation may support domestic demand. Services activity growth slowed in March, and healthcare stocks dropped after U.S. tariff announcements. In contrast, AI-related shares saw a slight increase, while energy and new energy indices declined despite rising oil prices."
