Xi Jinping's anti-corruption campaign has intensified in 2026, with the April 3 ouster of Politburo member and Guangdong party secretary Ma Xingrui for "serious violations," marking the third such high-level removal in six months and extending beyond the military. Earlier, January investigations purged Central Military Commission vice chairs Zhang Youxia and Liu Zhenli, leaving the CMC with just two members amid sweeping People's Liberation Army probes, particularly in the Rocket Force and defense sectors. Nineteen military-linked delegates were dismissed ahead of March's Two Sessions, signaling ongoing loyalty tests and power consolidation ahead of the 2027 Party Congress. Traders weigh unpredictable CCDI actions against Xi's unchallenged control, with no clear end to potential targets in party, military, or state institutions.
