Hi everyone. I’m Stephanie LI.
Coming up on today’s program
- China mulls first law to protect the private sector;
- CSRC lifts Hong Kong MRFs quota to 80%.
Here’s what you need to know about China in the past 24 hours
Chinese lawmakers are deliberating a draft of the country's first law specifically focusing on the private sector's development and protection, aiming to bolster the private economy through legal norms amid strategic reforms to optimize the business environment.
The draft, which comprises nine chapters and 78 articles, covers eight main aspects, including fair competition, improving the investment and financing environment, and scientific and technological innovation. It was submitted to an ongoing session of the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress, the country's top legislature, for deliberation on Saturday.
The issuance of the private economy promotion law was also mentioned as a key task for 2025 during the Central Economic Work Conference held earlier this month.
China has consistently been refining its legal frameworks to boost private economic development since the start of the year, with a focus on attracting investment, promoting equitable market access, and strengthening financial support across various regions and departments.
Data from the State Administration for Market Regulation shows that as of the end of September, the total number of registered private enterprises nationwide surpassed 55 million, accounting for 92.3 percent of all enterprises. In the first three quarters of this year, 6.19 million private enterprises were newly registered across the country, according to the administration.
The draft law emphasizes the implementation of a nationwide unified market access negative list system, saying that aside from areas on the negative list, various economic organizations, including private entities, will have equal access in accordance with the law.
Meanwhile, it also supports empowering capable private entities to spearhead major technological advancements, as well as advocates including private economic entities in major national scientific research infrastructure.
Greater Bay Area, Greater future
- The China Securities Regulatory Commission has raised the sales cap of northbound Mutual Recognition of Funds, or Hong Kong-registered investment funds that can be sold in the Chinese mainland upon meeting certain requirements, to 80 percent from 50 percent. Hong Kong MRFs can be trusts, mutual funds, and other investment programs set up, operated, and publicly sold in the city under its laws and approved for sale in the Chinese mainland by the CSRC. The new circular will take effect from Jan. 1, the watchdog noted.
- Guangzhou in China's southern Guangdong province said it has received the green light from the country's cabinet to start constructing its new airport project, which will be located in Guangzhou's neighboring city of Foshan. The plan is to achieve an annual passenger throughput of 30 million and cargo and mail throughput of 500,000 tons by 2035. The Greater Bay Area has had five major airports in a radius of less than 200 km, including the Hong Kong, Guangzhou, and Shenzhen international airports, with their respective annual passenger throughput of over 10 million.
- From January to November this year, Guangzhou's foreign trade volume has already exceeded one trillion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 2.4 percent, according to the municipal commerce bureau. In terms of actual use of foreign investment, the Guangzhou Economic and Technological Development Zone has ranked top in the nation for five consecutive years, with a cumulative total of 362 Fortune Global 500 companies investing in Guangzhou. In the first 11 months, 7,558 new foreign-invested enterprises were established, a year-on-year increase of 26.9 percent.
Next on industry and company news
- Shanghai Port became the world's first to see an annual container throughput of over 50 million 20-foot equivalent units yesterday, the Shanghai International Port Group said. The port has ranked first globally in annual container throughput for 14 consecutive years.
- Nio’s third brand, Firefly, launched presales for its first EV priced from 148,800 yuan, with deliveries starting in April. The Chinese EV startup wants the brand to rival BMW’s Mini and Mercedes-Benz Smart, according to founder William Li.
- EHang and Changan Auto inked a deal on Saturday to ally on flying car R&D, manufacturing, sales, and operations. The partnership will leverage EHang’s eVTOLs and flight tech expertise and Changan Auto’s manufacturing strength for future mobility ecosystem innovations.
- Shanghai Fosun Pharmaceutical is proceeding with its proposal to merge and privatize innovative drug-maker Shanghai Henlius Biotech at a cost of HKD5.4 billion. The company proposes to pay HKD24.6 for each Henlius' share listed in Hong Kong, 36.67 percent higher than the closing price of HKD18 on May 21.
Switching gears to financial news
- Guotai Junan Securities is set to merge with Haitong Securities creating China's largest brokerage. The merger will be conducted through a swap deal where Guotai Junan issues A-shares and H-shares to all A-share and H-share exchange shareholders of Haitong Securities. Hong Kong's securities watchdog has approved Guotai Junan Securities to become the major shareholder of certain subsidiaries of Haitong Securities which are licensed corporations.
- Tencent’s cross-border payment platform Tenpay Global recently partnered with Euronet Worldwide’s subsidiary Ria Money Transfer to allow users to transfer funds from Ria’s channels directly to digital wallet balances or linked bank accounts on Tencent’s WeChat Pay.
Wrapping up with a quick look at the stock market

周二市场迎来反弹周期开盘后突发大涨,昨日量能破万亿后跌不下去,利用昨晚不痛不痒的利好今日在互联金融反弹的带动下,低价股超跌股率先反弹拉动人气,机器人(sz300024)科技股集体反弹修复,超过五千家股票上涨,全场都在等下跌回补缺口时资金提前发动反弹预判了大多数人的预判,再次证明不会等你准备好了再去做,符合近期运作特征,本周节奏预判为探底反弹再下跌,总体维持横盘等待均线下移,需要关注下午行情是否能挺住,周二周三看反弹时间周期,上午最高为3229.99点有盘口数字迹象,需要等待十天线的反馈,如果下午势头较强下半周可能跌不下去,每个月的反弹也就出现了,不过股指期货交割周不会那么简单,也需要做好节奏和差价,不管市场怎么走需关注股市主线机器人(sz300024)方向不动摇做好差价和节奏,机器人(sz300024)经过上午震荡后掀起涨停潮树立主流热点低位此处需关注补涨谨防鸡犬升天,除此外虽然科技股超跌股和低价股都反弹了或许仍是较好的减仓调仓机会。 -
