Tech ETF Plunges as Capital Drain Concerns Emerge; Market Seen in Contractionary Base-Building Phase

Stock News07-28

Shares of the STAR 50 ETF collectively declined in early trading. As of press time, the ChinaAMC CSI STAR 50 ETF (03109) fell 5.02% to HK$16.66, the Bosera STAR 50 ETF (02832) dropped 4.66% to HK$12.49, and the PP STAR 50 ETF (03151) lost 4.56% to HK$12.14.

On the news front, CXMT officially debuted on the STAR Market on July 27. Prior to its listing, some industry insiders had warned it could create a capital drain effect on the market. In response, GF Securities analyst Liu Chenming noted that the impact of a mega IPO on the broader market is limited. While a short-term capital drain effect within the technology sector is a concern, over a longer horizon, industrial trends are the core factor driving sector style evolution, and a single IPO event is unlikely to alter the long-term direction.

Sinolink Securities stated that the peak impact of CXMT's listing on capital absorption is passing, and attention should be focused on its influence on technology stocks and the STAR Market. According to China Southern Asset Management, last week, the A-share market completed a bottom-testing rebound in a volatile rhythm of "stabilizing on Monday, surging on Tuesday, diverging on Wednesday, rallying broadly on Thursday, and plunging sharply on Friday." From a volume perspective, the market experienced a significant contraction, reflecting capital front-running the major IPO event. Looking ahead, the scope for market adjustment is largely complete, and the current level is likely a short-term low. The market is now in a phase of contractionary base-building, and while volatility may persist, there is no need for pessimism. Investors can consider patiently waiting for the market to return to normal. Key events this week include the major IPO listing, the FOMC meeting, and earnings reports from tech giants like Microsoft and Amazon.
