He cites robust AI and technology fundamentals and new Chinese economic growth drivers, making Chinese equities—particularly A-shares—attractive for allocation.

He warns the coming months’ advance will be led by earnings-driven organic growth or growth via transactions spreading in an orderly way, not by a valuation-repair-driven blow-off.
