On July 30, ABC rose 3.01% in regular trading, trading at 6.51 HKD/share, with turnover of HKD 575 million.
The rally was primarily driven by Bank of America Securities upgrading ABC to a \"Buy\" rating on July 29, forecasting improved average profit growth for mainland bank H-shares in the first half. Additionally, China Ping An Life Insurance previously acquired approximately 171 million H-shares at HKD 5.3 per share, totaling about HKD 905 million, raising its stake to 24.11%.
On the capital flow front, Citi highlighted that mainland bank stocks account for only 3.8% of mutual fund portfolio weight, significantly below the 12.3% benchmark, implying potential reflow capital of approximately RMB 185 billion. The high dividend yield advantage remains prominent in the current low-interest-rate environment, with ABC H-shares offering an estimated dividend yield of approximately 5.8%, compared to mainland one-year deposit rates of around 1.5% and HKD fixed deposits at approximately 3%.
