Goldman Sachs: Chinese equities show 'rotation signals,' with A-share hard-tech stocks still favored and H-share internet firms seeing earnings recovery.
Goldman Sachs’ latest China strategy maintains its tactical preference for A-shares over H-shares and hard tech over soft tech, but has started paying attention to the recovery potential of large-cap H-share internet stocks following their valuation adjustments.

China’s AI sector as a whole is not viewed as a bubble, though signs of localized overheating have emerged in semiconductors and certain A-share hard tech segments.
