On July 15, Tencent Holdings rose 3.02% in regular trading, trading at HK$473.4 per share, with turnover of HK$3.228 billion.
The rally was driven by a confluence of favorable macro data and institutional endorsements. US inflation data released overnight came in significantly below expectations, easing rate hike concerns and driving US Treasury yields down to 4.58%, which lifted risk appetite across Hong Kong tech stocks. The Hang Seng Index opened up 0.87% while the Hang Seng Tech Index gained 0.78%.
Simultaneously, multiple major institutions including Morgan Stanley, JP Morgan, UBS, Bank of America, and Guangfa Securities issued Q2 earnings previews for Tencent, broadly projecting revenue growth of 9%-12% year-over-year with stable core business performance and smooth AI progress. Bank of America notably raised its capital expenditure forecast for Tencent by 23%-25% over the next three years, arguing the market underestimates Tencent's AI capabilities. UBS maintained its HK$780 target price with a reiterated Buy rating. Additionally, Tencent's AI agent platform WorkBuddy has reached 13 million daily active users, supporting ongoing valuation recovery.
