The "strictest battery safety order in history" will be implemented, shifting from "energy density is king" to "safety performance first"
The "Safety Requirements for Power Batteries for Electric Vehicles", which is called the "strictest battery safety order in history" by the industry, was recently released and will be implemented in July 2026. For the first time, the "no fire and no explosion" after thermal runaway of power batteries will be included in the mandatory standards, pushing the industry from "endurance competition" to "safety competition". Against this background, leading battery companies such as CATL, BYD, and Xinwanda took the lead in launching products that meet the new national standards to seize the high ground of safety technology. This safety revolution without fire and explosion will not only raise the industry's entry threshold and accelerate the clearance of low-end production capacity, but will also drive market resources to the top and reshape the industry's competitive landscape. The consensus in the industry is that at a time when safety has become a core competitiveness, companies that truly focus on research and development and quality will gain greater room for development.

The Hang Seng AH Premium Index hit a five-year low, and some companies experienced a "H-share premium" phenomenon
Since the beginning of this year, the Hong Kong stock index has risen strongly as a whole, outperforming major global stock indices during the same period, and the Hang Seng AH Premium Index has continued to fall. On June 12, the index hit an intraday low of 126.91 points, a new low since June 2020. As of the close of June 13, the Hang Seng AH Premium Index was at 128.05 points. The index has fallen by more than 10% overall this year. The premium of A shares relative to H shares has always been a common phenomenon. Currently, 42 companies still have an AH premium rate of more than 100%. At the same time, the number of companies with A shares at a discount to H shares has gradually increased. The H-share prices of CATL, WuXi AppTec, and China Merchants Bank are all higher than A shares. Many industry insiders believe that the AH spread is expected to continue to narrow in the short term, and the current changes may herald the beginning of a new round of long-term trends.

Institutional sources: Hong Kong stock market is expected to break the discount cycle
Since the beginning of this year, with the overall recovery of the Hong Kong stock market, Chinese companies have seen a big explosion in IPOs in Hong Kong. New consumer companies represented by Mixue Group, core manufacturing companies represented by CATL, and high-quality innovative drug companies represented by Hengrui Medicine have all gone to Hong Kong for listing. In addition, more and more A-share listed companies have disclosed plans to go public in Hong Kong, showing an accelerating momentum of "A to H", and the situation in which the Hong Kong stocks of the same company were discounted compared to the A shares in the past has gradually changed. Institutional people generally believe that the continuous increase in A-share companies going public in Hong Kong will have a profound and all-round impact on the Hong Kong stock market and is expected to inject new vitality into the Hong Kong stock market. The Hong Kong stock market currently has both valuation safety margins, industrial upgrading momentum and liquidity support, and the value of medium- and long-term allocation is prominent. In terms of valuation premium, China Asset Management believes that the valuation level of the A-share market is greatly affected by mainland factors, and the liquidity premium is high; in contrast, the liquidity and valuation premium of Hong Kong stocks have been subject to certain constraints for a long time. However, since 2025, the situation has changed. After CATL's listing on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, an "inverted" phenomenon has emerged that surpassed the A-share market, verifying that the liquidity of the Hong Kong stock market has improved significantly relative to the A-share market. In the future, Hong Kong stocks are expected to break the vicious circle of low valuations.
