Score5/10Day / week -9.7% / -24.3%Unlock status First tranche formally landed, detonating the sector alongside ZhipuRSI(14) 30.4Total drawdown 50%+ off the post-IPO high

Technicals — Down 9.7% on 3.9x volume to HK$268.60 — falling, not bouncing, on unlock-landing day, -24.3% for the week. RSI 30.4 rides the oversold line, and re-expanding volume means unlocked shares are actually trading now: clearance in progress, not complete.

Fundamentals — The unlock moved from expectation to reality, landing the same day as Zhipu's and directly torching the tech index. Supply clearance is measured in unlocked-share turnover, and 3.9x volume is the start of that process. Fundamentals — model quality, monetization — still play no part in pricing at this stage.

News — CnFol framed it as the 'AI unlock plus semiconductor plunge double kill.' Three sessions of deep coverage, one unchanged conclusion: this is a float event, not a value event — but its spillover has begun touching our Tencent position.

Neutral Sidelines

Falling on expanded volume the day the unlock landed proves supply dwarfs the 'exhaustion' bid. Restated a third day: no catching, no chasing short, wait for the turnover.

Entry Unchanged: no participation until volume under 1x, hammer lows and a reclaimed 20-day all alignStop —Target —

Neutral

Halfway down, the option value of a first-tier frontier-model asset improves; full unlock turnover and monetization data remain the two unmet prerequisites.

  • Successive unlock tranches
  • Spillover dragging HK tech multiples broadly
  • Monetization data disappointing
