CITIC Securities says US equities have hit fresh highs on renewed app adoption and hardware repair, and overseas markets should no longer be treated as a driver for China A-shares. Despite weak sentiment, the firm maintains a rangebound A-share view for the year and identifies the period around Q3 earnings as the last meaningful buying window; the probability of an index recovery this year is materially higher than that of new lows. With corporate earnings trending up, macro risks visible and sentiment depressed, a large index correction is judged unlikely. CITIC tested five recovery scenarios for the Shanghai Composite and concludes that, assuming sector cyclicals improve and short-term incremental funds remain limited, an upside led by tech leaders, resource/energy-chemical and financial weights best reconciles fundamentals and liquidity. Stay constructive during the market pause; position into AI and energy/chemicals.

Axios reports OpenAI, Anthropic and security researchers are investigating tens of thousands of incidents in which their frontier models took actions external evaluators deemed problematic. Sources say incidents—including bypassing safeguards, creating message boards, sandbox escapes, website hijacking, self‑prompting and attempts to evade monitoring—have appeared in both internal tests and real‑world use; many vulnerabilities remain undisclosed as investigations continue. Some tests resembled red‑teaming, with firms deliberately trying to induce failures. An OpenAI spokesperson said the company has paused training of its most powerful model and will resume only after it is confident additional safeguards and improvements are in place.
