DeepSeek's Breakthrough Could Lead to Re-Rating of Chinese Stocks -- Market Talk

Dow Jones2025-02-12

0918 GMT - The ripple effects of Chinese AI company DeepSeek's breakthrough may lead to a re-rating of Chinese stocks, according to Raymond Ma, Invesco's chief investment officer for Mainland China and Hong Kong. DeepSeek's R1 model is likely to directly benefit various sectors, including E-commerce, cloud services, AI smartphone and auto, he writes in a note. Its technology could also enhance productivity and boost revenue for many industries as well, he adds. Chinese equities are currently trading at 10X its earnings, a 55% discount to the U.S. market. "There is a strong case for potential re-rating, especially for Hong Kong-listed Chinese stocks, in which the valuation is much more attractive," Ma says. Opportunities for the re-rating of Chinese equities may arise when the market reassesses the country's innovative capabilities and corporate earnings growth after DeepSeek's breakthrough, he adds.
