JPMorgan: A-share market's 'AI-driven deleveraging' is a healthy correction, not a bubble burst

The decline in margin trading as a share of IT-sector activity, coupled with technology ETFs attracting inflows despite market headwinds, suggests that deleveraging is nearing completion. Balance sheet leverage among U.S. and Chinese cloud giants remains well below levels seen during historical bubble periods, reflecting continued financial strength. Large model iterations and hardware supply constraints are expected to persist through 2028.
