Beijing  - China's stockmarkets surged 3.57 per cent on Monday, buoyed by the government's stimulus policies and a region-wide rally triggered by Wall Street's gains last week, local media said.

The benchmark Shanghai Composite Index was up 72.11 points, or 3.57 per cent, to 2,090.77. The smaller Shenzhen index gained 249.48 points, or 3.43 per cent, to 7,528.63. (dpa)
