[Goldman Sachs Bullish Again: Global Capital Returns to China, Optimistic About China's "Top 10" Stocks] Kinger Lau, Chief China Equity Strategist at Goldman Sachs, recently released a research report titled "The Return of China's Private Enterprises: The Tide Has Turned." Lau pointed out that driven by various macro, policy, and micro factors, the medium-term investment prospects for China's private enterprises are improving. Goldman Sachs has listed China's "Top 10," namely the ten Chinese private publicly listed firms that Goldman Sachs is particularly bullish on. They are: Tencent, Alibaba, Xiaomi, BYD, Meituan, NetEase, Midea, Hengrui Medicine, Ctrip, and Anta. 》Click for details US Dollar: The US dollar index rose 0.03% overnight, closing at 98.15. The market is focused on the tense situation between Israel and Iran, as well as the US Fed's policy meeting this week. The Fed meeting will conclude on Wednesday. The market generally expects the Fed to keep interest rates unchanged. However, the market will be watching how the Fed views recent data, which generally indicate softening economic activity, but the risk of rising price pressures remains high. Other Currencies: Leaders of the Group of Seven (G7) began their annual summit in Canada. With about three weeks left until Trump's deadline for trade agreements, the market remains nervous as agreements with major trading partners such as the EU and Japan have not yet been signed. They will be looking for any progress made in any bilateral talks with the US on the sidelines of the G7 leaders' summit. (Webstock Inc.) Data: Today, data such as the Bank of Japan's policy benchmark interest rate on June 17, the ZEW Economic Sentiment Index for the Eurozone in June, the ZEW Economic Sentiment Index for Germany in June, the US monthly import price index for May, the US annual import price index for May, the US monthly retail sales for May, the US monthly core retail sales for May, the US annual retail sales for May, the US monthly retail sales control group associated with GDP for May - seasonally adjusted, the US monthly industrial output for May, the US capacity utilization rate for May, the US monthly manufacturing output for May, the US manufacturing capacity utilization rate for May, and the US annual industrial output for May - seasonally adjusted, will be released. In addition, it is worth noting that: Today, 182 billion yuan of one-year medium-term lending facility (MLF) matured; Bank of Japan Governor Kazuo Ueda held a monetary policy press conference; the Bank of Japan announced its interest rate decision; US President Trump visited Canada from June 15 to 17 to attend the G7 Leaders' Summit. Crude oil: Both WTI and Brent crude oil futures fell, with WTI down 2.06% and Brent down 2.33%. Market concerns about disruptions to crude oil supplies in the Middle East eased, leading to a decline in oil prices. The US Navy said on Monday that electronic interference with commercial shipping navigation systems around the Strait of Hormuz had surged in recent days, affecting vessels passing through the area. Approximately one-fifth of global oil consumption, or about 18-19 million barrels per day (bpd) of oil, condensate, and fuels, passes through the Strait. Iran, a member of the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC), currently produces about 3.3 million bpd of oil and fuels and exports more than 2 million bpd. Analysts and OPEC observers said that the spare capacity of OPEC oil-producing countries to increase production to offset any disruptions is roughly equivalent to Iran's production. A preliminary survey showed that US crude oil and distillate inventories likely fell last week, while gasoline inventories may have increased. Before the weekly inventory report was released, the average forecast of four surveyed analysts was that US crude oil inventories increased by about 600,000 barrels in the week ending June 13. US distillate inventories, including diesel and heating oil, were expected to decrease by about 100,000 barrels, while gasoline inventories were expected to increase by 200,000 barrels. The American Petroleum Institute (API) will release its weekly crude oil inventory report at 4:30 AM Beijing time on Wednesday, and the US Energy Information Administration (EIA) will release its weekly crude oil inventory report at 10:30 PM Beijing time on Wednesday.

The market fluctuated and rebounded throughout the day, with the ChiNext Index leading the gains. Trading volume on the Shanghai and Shenzhen stock exchanges reached 1.22 trillion yuan, a decrease of 252.2 billion yuan compared to the previous trading day. On the futures market, hot topics rotated rapidly, with more stocks rising than falling. Over 3,500 stocks across the market advanced. In terms of sectors, the IP economy concept remained strong throughout the day, with multiple stocks such as Enlight Media hitting the daily limit. The stablecoin concept strengthened again, with stocks like GCL New Energy Holdings and Hundsun Technologies hitting the daily limit. The chemical sector remained active, with stocks like Jinniu Chemical hitting the daily limit. On the downside, the football concept experienced volatile adjustments, with Gongchuang Lawn approaching the daily limit down. By the close, the Shanghai Composite Index rose 0.35%, the Shenzhen Component Index rose 0.41%, and the ChiNext Index rose 0.66%. Sector-wise In the sector, stablecoin concept stocks strengthened further in the afternoon, with stocks like Insigma Technology, Tiansun Technology, Hundsun Technologies, Hengbao, China Finance Online, and Oceanpayment hitting the daily limit. Stocks like Lakala and Feitian Technologies rose over 10%. On the news front, Financial Secretary of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government Paul Chan Mo-po recently wrote that after the Stablecoin Ordinance comes into effect, the Hong Kong Monetary Authority will process license applications as soon as possible to allow eligible applicants to commence their businesses. Additionally, Walmart, the largest retailer in the US, and Amazon, the largest e-commerce platform in the US, have recently been exploring the possibility of issuing stablecoins in the US. This, combined with the continuous surge in Circle, a stablecoin concept stock listed on the US stock market, has also catalyzed positive sentiment for A-shares. However, after the overall volume surge in the stablecoin sector, it remains noteworthy whether there will be sufficient capital inflows to support the sector tomorrow. If the sector can maintain its upward momentum or complete a transition from divergence to consensus within the day, its short-term position may be further strengthened. Conversely, if it returns to consolidation after a sentiment peak, it should be viewed from the perspective of topic rotation, with a focus on front-line core stocks at that time. The IP economy concept remained strong throughout the day, with stocks like Enlight Media, GaoLe, Cuihua Jewelry, Yuanlong Yatu, and Dazzle Fashion hitting the daily limit. Stocks like Rastar Group, Jinghua Laser, Kingwin Laser, and Bona Film Group led the gains. On the news front, on the IP side, Labubu has gone viral globally, with the overseas expansion of domestic cultural IPs exceeding expectations. Industry insiders commented that its popularity is another vivid manifestation of Chinese creativity and innovative products gaining global recognition. Huachuang Securities remains bullish on the high-growth development of China's IP industry and the progress of cultural exports in the long term. From a market perspective, the overall position of IP economy concept stocks has already risen significantly after the hype. Therefore, amid intensifying market divergence, fluctuations in related stocks during the trading day may be more pronounced. However, as long as the medium-term trend remains intact, the overall risk is relatively controllable. In addition, the market's recent speculation on the IP economy has gradually extended to sub-sectors such as film and television, gaming, and even 3D printing. Therefore, attention can still be paid to the rebound opportunities of newly strengthened stocks in lower-tier sub-sectors. Regarding individual stocks From the perspective of individual stocks, although short-term sentiment showed some recovery today, the feedback from high-level consecutive limit-up stocks remained relatively average. As of the close, only Yuanlong Yatu remained among the stocks with more than two consecutive limit-ups today. However, stocks like Beikong Technology, Nanhua Futures, Yiming Pharmaceutical, and Hengbao Co., although unable to maintain consecutive limit-ups, still managed to sustain a strong upward structure after breaking the streak. Therefore, in terms of the current speculative style, funds are no longer confined to pure consecutive limit-up strategies but are engaging in trend-based speculation combined with industry logic. On the other hand, the number of stocks with two consecutive limit-ups today increased to 16, mainly focusing on sectors such as oil and gas, IP economy, stablecoins, and chemicals. Therefore, which stocks can stand out in the future will also be a key focus, as the themes behind them may still hold certain rebound opportunities. Market Outlook Analysis The market rebounded with fluctuations today, with all three major indices closing in the green and more stocks rising than falling. This reflects that, after last Friday's high-volume adjustment, the market still possesses considerable momentum. However, it is worth noting that today's trading volume shrank significantly (a single-day decrease of over 250 billion yuan). Combined with the recent week's trend of "volume increases during declines and shrinks during rebounds," the market will need to confirm a renewed strength by breaking above the 5-day moving average with increased volume. From the perspective of the futures market, as repeatedly emphasized recently, the current hot topics continue to rotate rapidly, making it difficult for the market to form sufficient buying momentum. Therefore, to further enhance the profitability of the futures market, a more defined leading theme is needed to elevate the market's potential. Market News Focus 1. Goldman Sachs Turns Bullish Again: Global Funds Returning to China, Favoring China's "Top Ten" Stocks According to a report by CLS on June 16, Goldman Sachs' Chief China Equity Strategist, Kenneth Lau, recently released a research report titled "The Return of Chinese Private Enterprises: The Tide Has Turned." Lau pointed out that driven by various macro, policy, and micro factors, the medium-term investment outlook for Chinese private enterprises is improving. Goldman Sachs also emulated the "Magnificent Seven" of U.S. stocks and listed China's "Top Ten," which are the ten Chinese private publicly listed firms that Goldman Sachs particularly favors. They are Tencent, Alibaba, Xiaomi, BYD, Meituan, NetEase, Midea, Hengrui Medicine, Trip.com, and Anta. The combined market capitalization of the aforementioned ten companies reached US$1.6 trillion, accounting for 42% of the MSCI China Index's weight, with daily trading volume reaching US$11 billion. Goldman Sachs analysts forecast that the earnings of the "Big Ten" will increase by 13% (compound annual growth rate) over the next two years, with a price-to-earnings ratio of 16x. The "Big Ten" will collectively embody the latest economic themes in China, including AI/technology development, "going global," new consumption trends, and enhancing shareholder returns. Additionally, Liu Jinjin specifically noted that investing in private enterprises does not mean excluding state-owned enterprises—Goldman Sachs reiterated its preference for a combination of "high-quality" Chinese state-owned enterprises and shareholder returns. 2.

On Friday (June 13), US stocks opened lower and continued to decline, with all three major indices closing in the red. At the close, the Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 1.79% to 42,197.79 points; the S&P 500 fell 1.13% to 5,976.97 points; and the Nasdaq Composite Index fell 1.3% to 19,406.83 points.

In the early hours of Friday (June 13) local time, tensions in the Middle East escalated, causing several popular US stocks to decline significantly during the night session. Affected by geopolitical tensions, international crude oil futures settled sharply higher, rising over 7%. WTI July crude oil futures rose 7.26%, and Brent August crude oil futures rose 7.02%. US COMEX gold futures rose 1.47%. Despite the overall decline in US stocks, sectors such as energy and precious metals rallied against the trend.

On Thursday (June 12), US stocks opened lower but closed higher, with all three major indexes rising collectively. Both the Dow and the S&P 500 closed at their highest levels in at least three months. At the close, the Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 0.24% to 42,967.62 points, its highest level since March 6; the S&P 500 rose 0.38% to 6,045.26 points, a new high since February 21; and the Nasdaq Composite Index rose 0.24% to 19,662.48 points. Among the 30 Dow components, 19 rose and 11 fell. The biggest decliner was Boeing (-4.79%). Earlier in the day, an Air India Boeing 787-8 aircraft crashed shortly after takeoff, marking the first fatal accident involving the Boeing 787 model. Driven by Oracle's positive earnings report after the market close the previous day, AI-related stocks generally rose. Oracle surged 13.31%, closing at an all-time high, with its total market capitalization reaching $560 billion, surpassing Mastercard and Netflix. Oracle's earnings report showed that the company's revenue and earnings across all segments exceeded analysts' expectations. To top it off, the company also raised its revenue forecast for the next fiscal year and provided an optimistic outlook for accelerated growth in cloud infrastructure. Oracle CEO Safra Catz stated on the earnings call that Oracle expects total revenue for fiscal 2026 to reach at least $67 billion, representing a year-over-year increase of approximately 16.7%, up from the previous forecast of 15% growth. As previously reported by Cailian Press, Trump had announced an AI infrastructure project named "Stargate," with SoftBank, OpenAI, and Oracle as the initial three companies involved in this $500 billion project. In addition to AI factors, the better-than-expected PPI report before the market open also boosted US stocks. Data showed that the US PPI rose 2.6% YoY in May, in line with expectations; core PPI rose 3%, below the market consensus of 3.1%. Analysts believe this indicates that tariffs have not yet imposed higher inflationary pressure on consumers, further boosting expectations for a US Fed interest rate cut in September. Similar to yesterday's CPI report, Trump once again pressured the US Fed to cut interest rates after the data release. Tom Hainlin, Senior Investment Strategist at U.S. Bank Asset Management Group, said that the future direction of US stocks depends on the resolution of tariff issues and how that resolution affects government budgets and US Fed policies. Hainlin stated, "We believe that the uncertainty surrounding the progress of trade negotiations remains the fundamental situation for the stock market. The market is currently experiencing sideways movement, and it is difficult to see a sustained breakthrough until we reach a conclusion." Performance of Popular Stocks Large-cap tech stocks had mixed changes. (Ranked by market capitalization) Microsoft rose by 1.32%, Nvidia rose by 1.52%; Apple rose by 0.21%, Amazon rose by 0.02%, Google C fell by 1.02%, Meta fell by 0.11%, Broadcom rose by 1.25%, and Tesla fell by 2.23%.

On Wednesday (June 11), US stocks moved downwards after a higher opening, with all three major indices declining. Both the S&P 500 and the Nasdaq ended their three-day winning streaks. By the closing bell, the Dow Jones Industrial Average dipped slightly by 1.1 points to close at 42,865.77. The S&P 500 fell 0.27% to close at 6,022.24, and the Nasdaq Composite Index dropped 0.5% to close at 19,615.88. Data released before the US market opened showed that the US Consumer Price Index (CPI) for May rose 2.4% YoY, while the core CPI increased 2.8% YoY, both falling short of market expectations of 2.5% and 2.9%, respectively. Following the data release, US President Trump posted on his social media platform, calling the CPI figures "very good numbers" and reiterating his earlier statement that "the US Fed should cut interest rates by a full percentage point." Alexandra Wilson-Elizondo, an executive at Goldman Sachs Asset Management, stated that the lower-than-expected inflation in May suggests that tariffs have not yet had a significant direct impact, as companies have been using existing inventory or adjusting prices slowly due to uncertain demand. She added that if US inflation remains manageable or the labor market shows weakness, the US Fed may consider an interest rate cut. However, during the trading session, tensions in the Middle East reversed market risk appetite. Hossein Salami, commander-in-chief of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) of Iran, stated that Iran is prepared with upgraded missiles for any combat. He also reiterated that Iran is ready for any threat scenario. Earlier in the day, Iranian Defense Minister Mohammad Reza Ashtiani warned that if conflict is forced, US losses would far exceed those of Iran. He pointed out that in any conflict, the US would have to withdraw from the region as all its bases would be within Iran's missile range. During the session, media reports indicated that the US was preparing to evacuate some staff from its embassy in Iraq and allow US military families to leave the Middle East due to heightened security risks in the region. This news led to a surge of over 4% in the settlement price of international crude oil futures.
