Core Viewpoint - The performance of Hong Kong and A-shares has outperformed their U.S. counterparts in the first two weeks of 2026, with expectations that this trend will continue due to lower valuations, RMB appreciation, and favorable policies [1][5]. Group 1: Market Performance - As of January 14, 2026, the CSI 300 index has risen approximately 2.4% year-to-date, while the Hang Seng Index has increased about 5.3%, both surpassing the S&P 500's gain of around 1.2% during the same period [1][5]. - In 2025, the CSI 300 and Hang Seng indices rose by 18% and 28%, respectively, compared to a 16% increase in the S&P 500 [1][5]. Group 2: Valuation and Investment Sentiment - Analysts indicate that the revaluation of Chinese stocks is ongoing, as their relatively low valuations compared to U.S. stocks are becoming increasingly hard for global investors to ignore [1][5]. - Tiger Securities suggests that while the U.S. market may not have peaked, it is at a cyclical high, making it more susceptible to negative macroeconomic factors [6]. Group 3: Future Projections - Tiger Securities forecasts that the average annual return for U.S. stocks will decline to a range of 3% to 5% over the next five to seven years due to high valuations, persistent inflation risks, and uncertainty regarding the Federal Reserve's interest rate cuts [6]. - In contrast, Tiger Securities is optimistic about the Chinese stock market, setting a target price of 30,000 for the Hang Seng Index and 5,000 for the Shanghai Composite Index by the end of 2026, representing increases of 11% and 21% from current levels, respectively [6].
