Nio (NIO) stock closed more than 3.5% higher on Dec. 30 after Beijing confirmed plans of offering consumer trade-in subsidies worth up to $8.92 billion next year.
The announcement comes as China seeks to counter deflationary pressures and economic softness. According to its National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC), the program will help “optimize the implementation of new economic and social organizations” as well.
