Equity Bottom-Up

<ul>
<li>WuXi XDC remains our top pick in China healthcare. We're optimistic about its share price performance. Cansino is stronger than imagined, and we recommend investors to be patient with it.</li>
<li>The future competitive landscape of GLP-1s would present very different situation from traditional drugs. Innovent’s Mazdutide could be a "dark horse" if the head-to-head trial against Semaglutide is successful.</li>
<li>For GLP-1s, it will be difficult to shake the first-mover position of the first two giants (Semaglutide and Tirzepatide) unless latecomers are able to show higher marginal benefits.</li>
