Mining Industry Opportunities Springs Capital: AI Capital Expenditure Overheating? Uncovering New Investment Logic Amidst Tech Giants' "FOMO" Sentiment Addressing the recent hot topic of overheated AI capital expenditure, major private fund Springs Capital stated in its latest public commentary that a dialectical view is necessary. Although accelerated iteration by giants like Alphabet and OpenAI has sparked "overheating" concerns, the industry trend remains strong. The U.S. leads innovation with computing power advantages, while China accelerates application deployment leveraging supply chain and cost advantages. North American cloud providers, driven by "Fear Of Missing Out" (FOMO) sentiment, are increasing investments, suggesting the computing infrastructure boom will continue. Looking ahead, Springs Capital maintains a positive outlook. The market is currently at an intersection of loose liquidity and a return to fundamental pricing: central bank injections remain high, and fiscal net injections have reached a near two-year peak, providing support for equity markets. Simultaneously, Q1 reports show listed companies' performance emerging from the bottom, with the transmission effect of profit growth to stock prices strengthening. The institution will deeply explore high-quality targets with sustainable growth and profit certainty.

Chongyang Investment's May Letter: In the AI Era, Are Internet Platforms Still Core Assets? Recently, prominent private fund Chongyang Investment released its May 2026 letter to investors, focusing on the internet sector's correction dilemma and future positioning amid the AI wave, offering an in-depth analysis of the sector's adjustment logic and long-term value. The letter points out that the Hang Seng Tech Index has experienced a deep correction since its October 2025 high, with the internet sector declining significantly. The core reason is the simultaneous downward revision of both performance and valuation, not merely sentiment-driven selling. Weak consumption, intensified local competition, and increased AI investments have led to declining operating margins and reduced free cash flow for internet companies, shrinking the scale of dividends and buybacks. Chongyang Investment analyzes that the market faces a "dilemma" in pricing internet companies' AI investments, worrying both about insufficient investment leading to disruption and excessive investment impacting short-term returns. It emphasizes that internet companies hold a dual identity as AI infrastructure providers and mass application distributors, and their accumulated core production factors are difficult for AI-native companies to replace. Regarding industry prospects, Chongyang Investment believes the internet industry is currently in an identity transition period. The short-term mismatch between AI investment and returns is a temporary phenomenon. In the long run, leading platforms that can defend core entry points and participate in value distribution still possess core asset potential, urging investors to view the technology cycle evolution with patience.

At the strategy level, Wenbo Investment plans to continuously optimize short-cycle trading strategies and increase the allocation ratio of trading signals to better adapt to a market characterized by frequent hotspots.

Ren Bridge Asset: AI Bubble Emerging, Adhering to Patience for Opportunities In its review of April market performance, Ren Bridge Asset pointed out that Middle East conflicts eased in April, and AI assets led global market gains. However, it believes current market optimism towards the AI computing power sector shows signs of a bubble.

Regarding A-share Q1 reports, it stated overall profits were better than expected but showed significant divergence, with profit growth driven by a minority of companies while most performed flat. Market concentration on high-growth stocks can easily foster bubbles.

Commercial real estate might be the first to see recovery opportunities.
