Jing Ulrich, chairman of China securities at JPMorgan in Hong Kong, noted after client meetings that "attitudes toward China's efforts to counter the economic slump seem to have turned more positive." The happy mood also showed up in Chinese stocks. By mid-February, the Shanghai stock market had surged more than 30% since the beginning of the year, making it the world's best performer.
