<li>Onshore Chinese investors’ purchases of HK equity through the Southbound Connect accelerated rapidly after China's September stimulus. Despite net selling in early May, the onshore bullishness seems sustainable for now.</li>
<li>Onshore investors prefer internet platforms (Tencent, Alibaba), technology and consumer discretionaries (Xiaomi, SMIC, China Mobile), and lately EVs (Li Auto, XPeng). High dividend SOE banks were bought earlier, not recently.</li>
<li>Our "China Twelve" stocks and focus themes closely align with onshore investors' preferences. 6 out of 12 figure in the "top bought" Southbound list - reaffirming our bullishness on them.</li>
