China shares hit seven-month high; world yields keep falling

[Reuters] - World shares set up camp at one-year peaks on Monday as a rally in Chinese stocks helped offset news that Japan's economic growth had ground to a halt last quarter, while oil prices extended their latest rally. Europe's main bourses in London (.FTSE), Frankfurt (.GDAXI) and Paris (.FCHI) were up 0.4-0.6 percent after four weeks of gains in the last five, while the E-mini futures for the S&P 500 (ESc1) ticked up 0.2 percent. China stood out in Asia as the blue-chip CSI300 Index jumped 3.3 percent to a seven-month high amid speculation more stimulus would be forthcoming from Beijing after a raft of weaker-than-expected July data.
