  • Hansoh Pharmaceutical Group Company Ltd (3692 HK), Microport Scientific Corp (853 HK) and Simcere Pharmaceutical Group Ltd (2096 HK) Shares soared 13.2%, 11.8% and 8.7% yesterday respectively. There was no company specific news. According to the research report published by CITIC Securities, due to factors such as the expected release of favorable policies for centralised procurement, discounted loans, and the low allocation of the pharmaceutical sector, the valuation of medical equipment and scientific research equipment has gradually ushered in revaluation. The bank expects that the subsidized loan policy will be mainly reflected in the cash flow improvement of medical companies in 22Q4, and will see incremental order contribution in 23Q1. In the next six months, the medical sector is expected to continue to benefit from this policy.
  • China Conch Venture Holdings Ltd (586 HK) Shares rose 8.2% yesterday. Last month, the company’s largest single shareholder, Conch Labor Union, increased its holdings by 1 percentage point. Recently, Industrial Securities recommended to pay attention to Conch Entrepreneurship, saying that its lithium battery recycling project is expected to enter the verification period next year.
  • COSCO Shipping Energy Transportation Co Ltd (1138 HK) Shares climbed 7.5% yesterday. In the news, COSCO Shipping Energy said in a recent institutional survey that more purchases can be expected in the short term, and low inventories and the diesel deficit in Europe will support cross-regional arbitrage, bringing trade activity and demand for ships. In addition, Middle East refineries may release more capacity in the fourth quarter, and more refined oil products are expected to be sold from the Middle East to Europe, thus providing increased transportation demand. The value of product tanker shipping in the fourth quarter is expected.
