<li>Southbound net buying jumped sharply to US$24.2bn in September. This was the highest ever. So was the average daily trading volume of US$20.3bn. Alibaba constituted 40% of total net buying.</li>
<li>Tencent, SMIC, Meituan were bought heavily, while Xiaomi and Pop Mart continue to be sold. Investors are likely avoiding the sectors with disorderly price wars and stocks with super-premium valuations.</li>
<li>In H2'25, the biotech companies, Innovent Biologics, XTALPI and Akeso are Southbound investors' favorites. The buying momentum could continue here as long as the tailwind of frequent licensing deals lasts.</li>
