AI's 'Windows moment': Hong Kong-listed internet stocks may present a strategic allocation window

Western Securities believes that AI is currently at a critical juncture, transitioning from a 'command-line interface (CLI)' to a 'graphical user interface (GUI).' Due to persistently high hardware costs and insufficient workflow integration, total factor productivity has not yet seen widespread improvement, but China is poised to achieve a breakthrough by leveraging its engineering talent dividend.

At a Glance | Tencent to Report Q2 Earnings on Wednesday! Expected to Show 'Stable Revenue, Pressured Profits' as AI Investment Becomes Key Battleground

Tencent’s second-quarter results are highly likely to reflect a pattern of 'steady revenue but profit under pressure.' For investors, the key focus of this earnings report is not merely the net profit figure, but rather an assessment of whether AI investments represent pure expense consumption or have already generated tangible incremental returns for advertising, cloud, and enterprise services. If the business benefits enabled by AI continue to materialize, the short-term sacrifice in profitability will translate into medium- to long-term value; otherwise, the market will reassess its valuation framework.

Morgan Stanley raised its target price by nearly 72%, while Zhipu AI rose more than 4%.

A report from a major bank once again sent Zhipu AI's share price soaring. On Thursday, Morgan Stanley released a research report significantly raising Zhipu AI’s target price by nearly 72%, from approximately HK$990 to HK$1,700. The news drove Zhipu AI’s intraday share price up by more than 4%, bringing its cumulative gain over the past five trading days to over 37%. Morgan Stanley noted that Zhipu AI’s ability to secure computing power continues to improve, and this—combined with the successful closing of a new round of financing—provides strong support for the company’s more robust growth trajectory. Without sufficient computing power, neither model training nor inference is feasible. Meanwhile, the new funding addresses the capital requirements during this cash-burning phase. The simultaneous improvement in these two key constraints directly prompted the bank to upgrade its rating.

Wall Street on 'China Concepts': From 'Powerless' to 'Opportunistically Bullish'

As computing power costs rise and intense price competition intensifies, the economic viability of standalone model-layer offerings is diminishing. The market is gradually converging on a consensus: the technical barrier to catching up in large models is not particularly high, and the ultimate commercial winners will emerge in multi-model ecosystems, AI agent applications, and on-device AI.

Tokenomics in the U.S. and China: Sources of Profit, Premium Allocation, and Realization Sequence

Profits across the large AI model industry chain are being realized sequentially from upstream to midstream to downstream. The upstream computing infrastructure layer has already captured the full benefits of scarce resource premiums, while the midstream model layer is experiencing price deflation due to open-source competition leveling the playing field. In terms of where value accrues, there is a clear divergence between China and the United States: in the U.S., incremental AI value is being absorbed into existing high-priced software subscription models; in China, due to differences in willingness to pay, the low-cost token-based benefits are spilling directly into the downstream application layer. Going forward, whether downstream players can retain profits will depend on the 'switching costs' they establish within their specific business use cases.

Weekend buzz: “Empty deposits, multiple lights”?

Well-known memory sector bull Jukan has turned cautiously bearish in the short term, citing three reasons: First, following the functional breakdown of South Korea's leveraged ETF market, related investors are facing redemption pressures that could exert additional selling pressure on memory stocks. Second, NVIDIA is adjusting the architecture of its next-generation AI systems, with Rubin Ultra potentially reducing HBM configurations per rack and instead using optical interconnects to link multiple racks. Third, market expectations that memory prices will peak over the next two quarters are strengthening. In contrast, prominent investor "White-Haired Oracle" Serenity argues that the fundamentals of the memory sector remain unchanged, asserting that the market is merely rotating "from one bottleneck to another."

AI hardware price hikes ripple through 3C leasing: demand doubles as rental firms dismantle and sell graphics cards and memory modules

① Several equipment leasing providers indicated that compared to the price increases of upstream hardware components such as memory and graphics cards, rental prices for consumer electronics have not risen as significantly, with some products seeing price hikes of approximately 5%. ② Industry insiders revealed that amid rising hardware prices, some suppliers opt to disassemble and directly sell components like graphics cards and memory modules. Many small and medium-sized equipment lessors also sell parts or entire devices to quickly generate cash, planning to repurchase them once prices decline in the future.

Reuters: Alibaba plans to charge large commercial users of its next-generation open-source AI large language model a revenue share.

Reuters reported that Alibaba plans to introduce a revenue-sharing mechanism for its open-source models next week—a move that has never been previously disclosed. Until now, Alibaba has only charged developers who invoke its models on its own cloud computing platform; most open-source models allow customers to deploy them in their own data centers and use them entirely free of charge.
