<li>We still haven’t seen the “industry clearing”. When an industry no longer has entry barriers/first mover advantage, it will inevitably bring about the collapse of expectations for the future.</li>
<li>If the total retail sales of consumer goods do not maintain well, the probability of endogenous growth problems is high, which will be reflected in the decline of companies’ valuation.</li>
<li>It’s more reasonable for the share prices of those companies that have entered VBP to rise. For those that haven’t been included in VBP, the risk is much higher.</li>

We still haven’t seen the “industry clearing”. When an industry no longer has entry barriers/first mover advantage, it will inevitably bring about the collapse of expectations for the future.
If the total retail sales of consumer goods do not maintain well, the probability of endogenous growth problems is high, which will be reflected in the decline of companies’ valuation.
It’s more reasonable for the share prices of those companies that have entered VBP to rise. For those that haven’t been included in VBP, the risk is much higher.

<li>NHSA will set aside a certain market to provide space for innovative medical devices/consumables to explore the market in addition to centralized procurement. However, we tend to be cautiously optimistic.</li>
<li>We think it is important to clarify for investors what constitutes "commercialization success" – That is to generate revenue at scale and stable profitability through the sale of drugs.</li>
<li>All the products that covered by VBP begin to lose logic. Don't be fooled by those positive interpretations. We are bearish on the sectors with downward logic in long cycle. </li>
