The benchmark Shanghai Composite Index jumped 1.91 percent, or 52.43 points, to 2,804.23, gaining 4.54 percent over the week.
The Shenzhen Composite Index, which tracks stocks on China’s second exchange, climbed 2.28 percent, or 32.90 points, to 1,477.25, giving it a 6.32 percent improvement from last Friday.
