A bad week for HK and Chinese shares. National Team buying seems lighter into the waning days of the Year of the Rabbit. 
Net SOUTHBOUND selling was HK$9.4bn on the week, with net selling every day as the market fell hard - both in HK and the mainland.
Remarkable this past week was the tendency to net sell names which were down hard, and net buy names which have been performing well.

Equity Bottom-Up

<ul>
<li>The approval rate of Draft Bill is very low. So, it's more of a “strangulation” of investment sentiment. But considering the 2024 US presidential election, similar negative proposals may resurface. </li>
<li>WuXi AppTec has little control over the entire situation.There's “valuation discount” for China CXOs due to geopolitical conflicts. It’s difficult to completely rule out the possibility of “deliberate short selling”. </li>
<li>If look deeper, considering "sensitive situations" at present, to some extent, we may have already been in a financial war.The goal of short selling is to pick up cheap chips. </li>
