The KOSPI (Korea) Index fell -5.54%, led lower by SK Hynix, which fell -6.07%, and Samsung, which fell -3.8%. We\u2019ll see if Jensen Huang\u2019s four-day visit to the country can restore animal spirits. Indonesia\u2019s Jakarta Stock Exchange Composite fell -4.2% to reach a 52-week low, after having plunged -38% from mid-January, following the release of several government policies that are not popular with investors and MSCI\u2019s potential downgrade of the country&#8217;s markets from emerging to frontier status.&nbsp;The US dollar was weaker versus most Asian currencies, except for the Korean Won, as the CNY per USD exchange rate has come back up to 6.77.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hong Kong and Mainland China were not immune to the regional downdraft overnight, as AI plays and year-to-date (YTD) winners, including semiconductors, electronic equipment, and communication equipment, were all hit hard. The severity of the downdraft and profit-taking was fierce. Hong Kong-listed semiconductor stocks, including Semiconductor Manufacturing International (SMIC), which fell -7.18%, Montage Technology, which fell -9.21%, and Hua Hong Semiconductor, which fell -7.16%, were all hit hard. Hardware suppliers Victory Giant and YOFC fell by -11.18% and -4.63%, respectively, while AI large language model (LLM) providers MiniMax and Knopwledge Atlas, which is also known as Zhipu, fell -16.65% and -9.05%, respectively, despite the latter being added to Southbound Stock Connect next week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Internet stocks were off, but not significantly. Meanwhile, Mainland investors were net sellers of Hong Kong-listed stocks and ETFs, totaling -$309 million. Although Tencent fell -1.26%, the stock saw a net buy of $216 million from Mainland investors, the largest since March 16<sup>th<\/sup>. Meituan rose by 1.72% after announcing its 900,000th drone delivery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Interestingly, there has been little attention to JD.com\u2019s annual 618 E-Commerce sales event, which is seeing strong pre-sales. E-Commerce is just out of sight and out of mind, I suppose. ZTE gained +5.3% following yesterday\u2019s partnership with Tencent on cloud computing. Non-ferrous metals were hit hard in both Hong Kong and Mainland China.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There was some AI profit-taking in Mainland China, as technology hardware was hit; electronic equipment makers Foxconn and Eoptolink fell by -5.11% and -3.60%, respectively. Chipmakers were also affected, as Cambricon fell -4.39%, Semiconductor Manufacturing International (SMIC) fell -5.55%, Montage Technology fell -7.81%, and Naura fell -3.77%. The chip-heavy STAR Board fell -4.01% overnight, though banks had a good day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mainland-listed shares of autonomous driving company Leader Harmonious Drive Systems gained +20%, hitting a limit up. The surge was driven by a respected Singapore-based hedge fund naming the auto parts and transmission maker, which has transitioned to robotic actuators, as its top humanoid robotics pick. It is worth noting that we are among the top five US investors that own the stock, which is not part of the MSCI indices currently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The ETFs favored by the &#8220;National Team,&#8221; investment firms associated with China&#8217;s sovereign wealth, had below-average volumes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A Mainland article pondered whether mobile phone makers\u2019 AI LLMs could replace apps such as Tencent\u2019s WeChat. Why wouldn\u2019t I talk into my phone and ask it to book a flight and hotel for a business trip, thus bypassing online travel websites and apps? You can easily draw similar parallels to other applications (\u201cBuy XYZ stock!\u201d etc.). The article\u2019s answer was no, as mobile phone makers will want to partner with Tencent to ensure that WeChat and other super apps are available, given their large user bases. While building an app is not hard, the embedded user base is impossible to replicate. It is similar to the downdraft in US software stocks due to AI\u2019s threat. This issue is likely a factor in the recent weakness of Hong Kong-listed internet stocks. A re-rating on this ground is not the proverbial silver bullet, but a factor, as the restaurant delivery war and tepid domestic consumption have weighed on the companies&#8217; fundamentals. We recently saw US software stocks rebound. So, hopefully, we see a similar rebound play out in these stocks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yesterday afternoon, while examining Southbound Connect flows, I noticed that the database we utilize had given me incorrect data that we used in yesterday\u2019s note.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-last-night-s-performance\">Last Night&#8217;s Performance<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<figure
