The Shanghai Composite .SSEC climbed 7.1%, on top of last week's 13% rally.
Meanwhile, in China brokerages were overwhelmed by a pre-holiday rush of retail clients, jamming up trading systems as investors rotated money out of bonds and deposits into stocks.
"The Chinese stimulus has created some noise but the market may be front-running these first few steps, which might lead to disappointment later if measures don't continue," said Matt Tickle, chief investment officer at consultancy Barnett Waddingham.
Tickle said he'd take little comfort on longer term themesuntil he was certain on what would come next, not only from China's central bank, but from policymakers around the world.
"It's central bank watch, yet again," said Tickle.
The week is packed with major U.S. economic data including a payrolls report that could decide whether the Federal Reserve delivers another outsized rate cut in November.
