HSBC’s Q3 2026 Global Investment Outlook says investors are focusing on
long-term structural opportunities and the bank is bullish on Asian technology
innovation, with China’s AI development a central theme. Kuang Zheng, HSBC
Private Bank and Wealth Management China CIO, said AI will continue to attract
strong capital and boost productivity, lifting earnings across multiple sectors.
Expansion of digital infrastructure and AI will channel global capital into
technology and will also benefit industrials and materials. HSBC flags
semiconductors, data centers and industry-specific AI applications as preferred
exposures; AI-led opportunities are spilling into industrials, materials,
utilities and financials across the AI ecosystem.
