NIO Inc. shares were up 12.20% at the close on Thursday on about 24.3 million shares traded. While Nio did not have any particular news to explain the gains, it was one among several Chinese stocks to head higher. This could have been because of President Donald Trump saying he spoke to Chinese President Xi Jinping about trade amid tensions between the two countries. While he said the talk was productive he didn't offer any details. Also, Australia's AMP Capital Investors Ltd, declared that the Chinese stock market was "cheap and under-owned." AMP dynamic markets head Nader Naeimi said that this may be "the best time to buy a market." He added, "because expectations are so low, it doesn't take much positive news to turn."
