The key concerns of investors include the sustainability of the recent rally and potential fundamental changes upon policy rollout. We think a valuation repair is underway with the upcoming 11.11 campaign and 3Q/4Q24 results release as a critical juncture. Investors are also becoming increasingly optimistic on mega-cap names such as Tencent, Meituan, Alibaba and JD in view of a favourable regulatory backdrop and stabilised competitive environment. Maintain MARKET WEIGHT.
In view of a stronger-than-expected government policy rollout, we reckon that the improved consumption sentiment will benefit e-commerce, local life services and OTA companies. In 2H24, we expect the undemanding valuations of internet companies to be repaired by shareholder returns, cross-border expansion and easing competition. Meanwhile, we believe monetisation momentum will be fuelled by AIGC development and adtech upgrades. Maintain MARKET WEIGHT.
2Q24 revenue growth was lukewarm, hampered by a subdued macro backdrop, but most earnings beats were delivered by internet companies. We expect consumers to continue switching to service- and experience-oriented, which will benefit OTA, local life services and online games amid the summer holiday period. Key catalysts in 2H24 that will drive internet companies’ valuation repair include shareholder returns, cross-border expansion, easing competition and more, in our view. Maintain MARKET WEIGHT.
The MSCI China rose 0.8% in August, trailing the HSI’s 3.7%, as the former was weighed by the weaker performance of utilities, materials and consumer staples. Looking ahead, we opine that the Fed rate cut in Sep 24 should be priced in and we do not expect ratesensitive sectors to outperform. We are adding AIA, COLI, Desay SV, Galaxy Entertainment, Meituan, Ping An and The United Laboratories to our BUY list. We remain cautious on the EV sector, adding Li Auto to our SELL list.
In our base case, we expect the MSCI China index to range trade for the rest of 2024 due to uncertainties over the duration of economic adjustment. Upside risk comes from the start of the Fed’s easing cycle as it opens the way for further monetary easing in China. But this should be complemented by demand-side policies for greater impact. In the meantime, we have a barbell strategy, preferring TMT, tech hardware and defensives like banks, communication services and utilities. Pricing in slowe...

We are positive on BEKE’s 2024 outlook supported by the stimulating policies at both State and local levels. The overall housing sector has begun to stabilize. We are also positive about the company’s 2Q24 performance as our data indicates that China's housing market has shown signs of modest recovery, primarily driven by the secondary market. While secondary home sales have increased since early 2024, new home sales have declined at a slower pace. Once the prices stabilize, we are expecting mor...
Chinese equities fell more than 2% in July, losing initial gains after the Third Plenum did not lead to new stimulus policies. For August, 1H24 results would be the catalyst for most stocks, and we expect earnings of EV names to be under pressure given the intense price competition. We add Cosco Shipping Ports, Haier Smart Home, and KE Holdings to our BUY list and SELL on WuXi Bio and XPeng to diversify away our market risk exposure.

We believe efforts in user-focused and overseas expansion strategies will continue to help e-commerce companies regain GMV growth momentum and potentially improve take rates. We expect consumption behaviour to become service- and experienceoriented, which will benefit OTA players.

Rebound on policy clarity. The MSCI China index has made impressive gains of 23.3% since bottoming out in late-Jan 24, bringing ytd performance to 8.2%. This is a remarkable turnaround, as Asia ex-Japan is only up 6.9% ytd. This comes after the government gave clear indications that it remains firmly behind the healthy development of capital markets and efforts to revive the property market will no longer be clouded by concerns of re-igniting the bubble. Further re-rating hinges on real est...
