<ul>
<li>Given Trump’s overhaul of US economy and world trade, US interest rate may stay high and Renminbi might depreciate further, both negative for our sectors from a foreign investor perspective;</li>
<li>We expect China to respond strongly to Trump Tariff 2.0, which will necessitate bigger stimulus, leading to a scenario of a policy overdose;</li>
<li>We look for: (1) high dividend yield, (2) US-dollar exposure, (3) policy overdose in stock selection. We add TRIP and ATAT to our DMC and reiterate our MMC  portfolios</li>
