Equity Bottom-Up

<p>China's Xinhua news agency released a report this morning describing online gaming as spiritual opium highlighting that the youth has suffered from the addictiveness of the online game. As a result, sentiment for online gaming companies was weak  in the morning. We are of the view that the regulation on the online gaming sector has been more of less done in the past and if there's any new tightening targeting the control of play time of the youth, it will be more likely fine-tuning from the past policy guidance. Therefore the impact on online gaming companies should be manageable. </p>
