从传统的跨市场定价角度，A+H股两地上市公司，通常遵循两条规律： 1.A股比港股溢价 2.市值越大，A、H股价格越接近 （原标题：宁德的港股溢价之谜） 2025年10月20日，宁德时代发布三季报，依旧彰显宁王本色。 财报数据显示，第三季度公司净利润185亿元，同比增长41%；扣除非经常性损益的净利润164亿元，同比增长35%。 财报公布后，宁德港股与A股双双高开。但值得注意的一点是，作为一家A+H股两地上市的公司。宁德H股相比于A股显著溢价。 时势造"溢价" 事实上，宁德时代港股发行价较A股仅折6.8%，上市首日即实现7.0%溢价。折价6.8%到溢价7%，依旧是一个合理的波动区间，相比于现在34%的 溢价，相去甚远。 这背后一个值得关注的是宁德时代港股IPO的时间点：2025年5月20日。 当时宏观层面发生了一个特殊的事件，导致了港币市场流动性的异常宽松。 5月初，亚洲货币罕见迎来集体升值。新台币创1988年以来最大升幅，人民币升破7.2关口，而港元升至7.75，触及强方兑换保证水平。 长期以来，香港金管局为维持汇率稳定而实行联系汇率制。也就是说，由于香港没有独立的货币政策，实际上政策利率参照美联储利率同步调 ...
