China hardcore tech and growth stocks outperforming
  • 朱榮熙

    朱榮熙

Chinese new economy stocks, led by battery and semiconductor names, have reclaimed the outperformance against the broader market year-to-date, shrugging off ongoing US-Iran geopolitical noise. This resilience is underpinned by a combination of macroeconomic reflation, structural policy support, and accelerated technological self-reliance. On the macro front, China has officially exited factory deflation after more than three years. This is a critical inflection point: Goldman Sachs research shows that equities perform best when growth stabilizes alongside steadily rising inflation, with a concurrent PPI rate in the 0-4% range generating the highest historical returns across 1- to 12-month horizons. This reflationary tailwind is being amplified by targeted sector developments. In the battery and renewable space, the government summoned 16 leading manufacturers to restrict unchecked capacity expansion and curb price wars. Furthermore, the NDR’s new Order No. 41 raises thresholds for energy storage stations. Together, these moves force the industry to transition from “scale expansion” to “high-quality development”, directly benefiting top-tier power equipment and ESS producers. Simultaneously, the push for semiconductor self-reliance is accelerating. Reports indicate that DeepSeek’s highly anticipated V4 model will run on Huawei AI chips instead of Nvidia GPUs–a massive endorsement of domestic AI infrastructure that sparked a rally in local names like Cambricon. Should this reflationary momentum continue, new economy stocks are positioned to widen their outperformance gap. Investors forced on upstream hardware can capture this through our Premia China STAR50 ETF. For a broader play on this innovative growth story–spanning semiconductors, AI, EVs, and biotech–our Premia CSI Caixin China New Economy ETF offers an optimal, diversified approach.
