The tech and internet sectors will exhibit significant sub-sector divergence between 2H25 and 2026, China Merchants Securities said in its research report.
The "Magnificent Seven" and tech hardware are benefiting from long-term demand for AI infrastructure and robust AI capital expenditure, showing strong performance. On the other hand, global consumer SaaS is experiencing simultaneous weakness, with different companies facing various bottom-up issues.
China Merchants Securities remains optimistic about AI leaders, suggesting that investors should seek selective opportunities in the consumer SaaS sector after significant pullbacks.
Chinese companies, such as Pinduoduo (PDD.US), NTES-S (09999.HK) (NTES.US), BOSS ZHIPIN-W (02076.HK), and TME-SW (01698.HK) (TME.US), have demonstrated solid growth, profitability, and valuation support.
The broker recommended overweighting Alphabet (GOOG.US), Meta (META.US), Netflix (NFLX.US), Roblox (RBLX.US), Pinduoduo, NTES-S, BOSS ZHIPIN-W, and TME-SW.
