Deep News2025-11-10

On November 10, the Shanghai Composite Index rose 0.53% to reclaim the 4000-point level, with trading volume expanding to 2.17 trillion yuan. While tech growth stocks underperformed—the ChiNext Index fell 0.92%—consumer staples led the rally.

The consumer sector surged across the board, with baijiu giants like Kweichow Moutai, Wuliangye, and Luzhou Laojiao driving gains. The Food ETF (515710) jumped 3.64%, ranking among the top 10 best-performing ETFs. The Pension ETF (516560) rose 2.54% after five straight days of net inflows, while the Consumer Leaders ETF (516130) gained 2.14%, breaking through multiple moving averages.

Meanwhile, AI-related ETFs saw declines following MoonDark's release of its Kimi K2 Thinking open-source model. The ChiNext AI ETF (159363) and STAR AI ETF (589520) fell 0.46% and 1.19%, respectively, potentially presenting a buying opportunity.

Macroeconomic data showed China's October CPI turned positive year-on-year (+0.2%), while PPI narrowed its decline, signaling improving demand. Analysts suggest this reflects economic stabilization, with core CPI expansion indicating a potential mild inflationary trend.

Investment firm CICC recommends a dual-strategy approach: 1) cyclical sectors like chemicals and agriculture benefiting from economic recovery, and 2) tech growth areas including AI computing, defense, and biotech.

Hong Kong markets also rallied, with the Hang Seng Index and TECH Index both rising over 1%. The Hong Kong Internet ETF (513770) and Hong Kong Biotech ETF (520880) saw significant inflows ahead of major tech earnings reports.

Notably, the new Hong Kong Auto 50 ETF (520783) debuted today, offering concentrated exposure to EV leaders like XPeng, Li Auto, BYD, and Geely (combined 47% weighting).
