As a global EV leader, China has far surpassed other countries in terms of both sales and export ratio, and the entire ecosystem is already very mature. More and more car manufacturers are seizing this piece of cake. The imbalance between supply and demand is getting bigger. The Chinese EV market is already facing a “never-ending” wave of price cuts
Among them, Tesla took the lead in announcing price cuts in 2022 in order to stabilize its market position, causing a chain effect of “price cuts”. As the biggest competitor, BYD also completely lowered prices soon after. Other major brands such as Ideal, SAIC, NIO, and Chery responded. This has triggered wave after wave of “price reduction waves”, forming the internal phenomenon seen so far
In order to stand out from the harsh competitive environment, the price cuts made by some car manufacturers are even more dumbfounded. With the attitude of “I would rather lose or not lose”, they quickly run out of breath when beating other peers. The entire field is already heating up, and everyone is leaving China one after another, so where will the next battleground be? Southeast Asia
Due to the impact of the price war, EVs of various brands are becoming more and more affordable, and consumers in emerging markets are becoming more and more accepting of EVs. For example, Thailand, Indonesia, the Philippines, and Malaysia have all “doubled” in the past few years. Not only dealers, but the supply chain required for the EV ecosystem, such as cables, electricity, distribution systems, charging piles, and battery replacement, will continue to benefit. With the help of the government actively promoting energy transformation, I believe more companies will seize this egg in the future...

In the field of investment, traditional values often define investment opportunities with “discounts”
Yesterday's high-priced item. If the price drops today, it's considered a treasure
This kind of thinking, which seems logical,
One key factor was actually overlooked: changes in stock valuations
For investors seeking growth,
It's a misconception to simply equate a “discount” with an investment opportunity
In the stock market, superficial “cheap” is often synonymous with “expensive.”
And behind the “expensive” one may be hiding the next growth stock
In fact, the relationship between value and price is more complex and often goes hand in hand
For a long time, many investors have relied on PE as an indicator to invest
However, this approach is easy to fall into misunderstandings
The price-earnings ratio only reflects the historical situation, and there is no predictability for future profit growth
In the market, analysts often suggest investors go to the bottom of stocks that have plummeted in price, believing that they have bottomed out.
The PE value also reached an all-time low
However, against the backdrop of continued macroeconomic deterioration,
These stocks are likely to perform worse and fall into the “bargain” trap
In contrast, stocks with high PE values often represent the market's premium on growth stocks.
This is a normal phenomenon
As the company's profit expectations continue to rise,
The high PE value reflects the market's recognition of its rapid growth
Therefore, instead of trying to predict short-term stock price fluctuations,
It's better to focus on whether the company can continue to improve its profitability.
The core of investing is to determine whether there is potential for stock price appreciation.
We should do it through in-depth analysis of macroeconomic trends, combined with technical analysis...

[Brief description] More stable investors prefer to invest in dividends from banks, infrastructure, REIT, etc., because of the stable performance of this type of business, dividends are also quite generous. As a REIT writer, I'm certainly no exception. However, in addition to the above projects, there are other shares with generous dividends, one of which is preference shares (preference shares).
This type of stock has steady characteristics, and dividends are guaranteed, and declines are rare.
Regarding the characteristics of preferred stocks, I will explain the benefits of investing in preferred stocks on the upcoming live broadcast.
