After a continuous reduction in market trading volume, a short-term directional choice may be faced, waiting for new hotspots to break through.
Yesterday, the market continued a low-volume consolidation structure. From the Index perspective, although it is still in a relatively strong consolidation structure, the narrow fluctuations over the past three days may indicate that the market is facing a new round of directional choices. If it cannot attack with increased volume again, the probability of subsequent corrective consolidation may further increase.
Tencent conference call: Chinese Technology companies prioritize efficiency, with capital expenditures lower than their Western counterparts, as proven by DeepSeek.
Tencent executives stated that capital expenditures are mainly used for purchasing GPUs, which have brought high ROI. With breakthroughs in DeepSeek technology, the efficiency of GPU resource utilization has improved, eliminating the need for large-scale GPU purchases as originally planned. AI-enhanced technology has improved returns on investment for advertisers, contributing to Tencent's growth rate, which exceeds the Industry average. At the same time, AI has also supported the Business sector, with deferred revenue (primarily from games) experiencing a year-on-year growth in the high double digits at the end of last year, and it is expected to gradually convert into reported revenue this year and next. AI has become a key investment area while also taking into account Shareholder returns.
