Investment Rating - The investment rating for the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industry is "Positive" [2]. Core Viewpoints - The recent performance of the pharmaceutical sector has been sluggish, with the innovative drug sector experiencing a significant rise in expectations earlier this year, now undergoing a correction. However, innovative medical devices are expected to benefit from ongoing government support for medical equipment upgrades and accelerated domestic replacement of high-end medical devices, alongside continuous expansion into overseas markets.
