市场消息：Alphabet旗下Isomorphic Labs正就至少400亿美元的估值进行融资谈判。

China A-share battery concept stocks rose in early trade. Zizhu Gaoke notched a third consecutive daily limit-up; Shidai Wanheng hit the daily limit. Xiongtao, Yishitong, Jin Yinhe, Longpan Technology and Zhenhua New Materials also advanced.

China International Capital Co (CICC) says A-shares may post a post-holiday opening rally. Pre-holiday weakness reflected multiple external headwinds; overseas markets were largely higher over the break and recent domestic economic data have been steady. CICC expects Q3 results after the holiday to provide some earnings support and forecasts investor confidence to recover in October, which could help fuel the rally.
