Abstract generation in progress

Goldman Sachs report indicates that China’s AI is forming an independent investment trend from global tech stocks, with its potential economic benefits severely underestimated. Investing in Chinese AI assets has become a necessary means to hedge against traditional industry risks.

Since the “DeepSeek Moment” in January 2025, Chinese AI-related stocks have increased by an average of 50%, driving the total market value of the tech sector up by over $3 trillion. Chinese AI stocks have significantly outperformed similar US assets by 30% and North Asian peers by 21%. More importantly, the 52-week rolling return correlation between Chinese AI stocks and US and global tech stocks is only 23% (far below the 69% level between the US and other regions), demonstrating that Chinese AI has entered a fully independent market.

Unlike the US-led semiconductor and model layers, China has notable global comparative advantages in power, infrastructure, and physical AI fields. Currently, global funds have a very low allocation to Chinese AI assets (only 1.2% of their tech holdings). Once the capital markets begin to correct this bias, significant capital inflows are expected.
