Market Overview: A-Shares Show Resilience, Hong Kong Market Under Pressure
As of the midday close, the three major A-share indices all rose. The Shanghai Composite Index gained 0.12%, the Shenzhen Component Index rose 0.81%, and the ChiNext Index performed best, climbing 1.18%. Over 2,700 stocks advanced across the market, with trading volume increasing compared to yesterday. In contrast, the Hong Kong market was weak. The Hang Seng Index fell 0.89%, barely holding the 27,000-point level, while the Hang Seng Tech Index dropped 1.68%, dragged down by a collective decline in major tech stocks.
Hotspot Focus: Clear Themes in AI Computing Power and Domestic Substitution
Today's market opportunities are primarily structured around two main themes:
- AI Computing Hardware Industry Chain: Boosted by Lenovo Group's (00992.HK) Q3 results showing a 72% surge in AI-related revenue, A-share sectors like CPO and AI computing hardware rebounded. This confirms the high demand for AI infrastructure.
- Domestic Substitution and Autonomy: Zhipu (2513.HK) released its new-generation open-source base model GLM-5 and announced deep adaptation with mainstream domestic chip platforms like Huawei Ascend and Cambricon. This move is seen as a key step towards autonomy in the AI computing supply chain and may drive a revaluation of the domestic computing industry chain.
Risk Alert: Sector Divergence and Regulatory Dynamics
Market divergence is also evident, with AI application sectors like film/TV and gaming retreating, and major consumption and finance sectors performing weakly. Additionally, the State Administration for Market Regulation issued the "Compliance Guidelines for Pricing Behavior in the Automotive Industry," clarifying nine categories of price-cutting behaviors with significant legal risks, aiming to regulate market competition. Related industries need to monitor policy impacts.
Afternoon Outlook
The market is expected to maintain its structural characteristics in the afternoon. Sectors worth continued attention include AI computing hardware, ultra-high voltage, and semiconductor equipment/software benefiting from the domestic substitution logic. Investors should be wary of potential spillover effects from Hong Kong tech stock sentiment on related A-share sectors.
