Cross Asset Strategy

<ul>
<li>Asia has corrected 10%, propelled by Korea, Taiwan and Onshore China. AI capex anxiety, concerns about spike in inflation and interest rates and Middle East tensions are the main drivers.</li>
<li>Analysis of last 20 years' bear market shows that monetary policy tightening has been a regular feature of bear markets, unless severe macro-economic retrenchment (like in GFC) triggers the drawdown.</li>
<li>Asian policy rates are increasing but we don't think severe inflation spike is likely yet, unless the Iran war escalates sharply. We like materials, energy, AI "picks and shovels", financials.</li>

<li>China's disappointing April-June GDP growth underscores domestic consumption weakness. Exports continue to skyrocket. Export resilience in power and automobiles, along with higher overseas margins benefit companies with sustainable foreign revenues.</li>
<li>In 2026, technology, industrials, energy have outperformed. The first two fit the theme of advanced manufacturing and technology-enablers. Combining this with robust overseas revenues, a set of stocks stand out.</li>
<li>Among these stocks, CATL, Geely, Weichai Power and CNOOC figure in our Model Portfolio.</li>
