Methodology: each issue's direction is a live signal — long/short opens or holds a position, neutral means flat, and every direction change opens, flips, or closes it. Returns are direction-aware (a short gains when the price falls) and compound across positions from first observation to the latest issue. "Price move" is the stock's own raw change, shown separately. Neither represents actual portfolio performance.

Brief History (23 issues)
The knife is still falling: distribution on 2.63x volume means institutions are still exiting, and HK$441 leaves only about two ATRs (15.74) of cushion above the HK$411 52-week low — poor odds for catching it here. The playbook is to wait for a volume dry-up or hammer candle in the HK$420-435 flush zone above the 52-week low, with a stop at HK$408 (below the 411 low) and a first target at the 20-day SMA (466.02) — a 7-10% mean-reversion trade. Until that stabilization prints, stay flat; yesterday's neutral stands.
Held no position yesterday (neutral); decision: stay flat. No knife-catching on day one of an earnings shock — the stock sits below every moving average, down 9% on the week, and the triple hit of a profit miss, first-ever negative FCF and a Morgan Stanley target cut needs time to clear. That said, RSI(7) at 29.9 is brushing oversold and the 52-week low is only 8.7% below, so shorting offers poor odds too. Reference levels: an entry zone of HK$430-440 hugs the 52-week-low buffer, a stop at HK$408 sits just under the HK$411 low (about 0.2x ATR), and HK$466 — the SMA20 — is the target; a break of 411 confirms a fresh yearly low and full disengagement.
Moving from long to sidelines — a deliberate exit, not a stop-out. Not because fundamentals deteriorated: at 16.9x with 46.7% of consensus upside this remains one of the cheapest setups in the brief. Rather, Q2 results land after today's Hong Kong close, and the two things the market cares about — a capex raise, with BofA modeling RMB 185B for 2026, and a potentially smaller buyback — are precisely the variables that could produce a negative reaction. Direction signals get settled for real, and holding a long into an event that resolves within 24 hours is wagering the position on the print. The disciplined move is to see the numbers, read the capex and buyback commentary, then decide about re-entering.
A 17.1x multiple with 45% of consensus upside gives valuation protection below and a mapped target above — the long stays. The only technical requirement is defending the 50-day at HK$456.26, the lower edge of the range; losing it would signal capital has left for good. The HK$534 target is the 200-day, and reclaiming it is what would confirm a medium-term reversal. This is ballast in the book, not the source of torque.
Maintaining the long. Today's value lies in the control group: TWLO gained 24.9% and has 5.2% of headroom left, ABNB gained 17.4% and its target now sits below spot, while Tencent's 44.2% is untouched. RSI at 55.7 makes it one of the few names here whose risk can be measured conventionally. Entry at HK$460–472, the stop at HK$448 below the 50-day at HK$454.15, and the HK$535 target at the 200-day all carry over unchanged — because neither price nor logic moved. The absence of a catalyst is a genuine weakness, but it is already reflected in a 17.2x multiple.
Maintaining the long. Today was sector beta rather than a company-specific negative, and RSI easing from 60.7 to 55.8 actually leaves the position more comfortable — amid a field of readings below 20 and above 70, Tencent is one of the few names whose risk can still be measured conventionally. The entry zone moves down from HK$468–480 to HK$460–472 near the 50-day at HK$454.16, with the stop held at HK$448 and the target at HK$535 below the 200-day. The weakness must be acknowledged: the gap to the 200-day widened from 8.9% to 11.7%, and for two straight sessions money has routed around it into pure model names, leaving the rerating catalyst still absent.
Holding above the 20/50-day lines; stop at HK$452 (below the SMA50), target the SMA200 (HK$537). The Aug 12 print is the key catalyst — confirmation of ad/gaming growth opens the recovery, with the low valuation as a cushion.
Maintaining the long. RSI at 60.7 looks refreshingly composed amid today's overbought field, and the unreclaimed 200-day at HK$537.01 leaves clear headroom. Entry at HK$468–480 above the 20-day, stop at HK$448 below the 50-day at HK$452.39, and a HK$535 target at the 200-day all carry over from yesterday. Holding second place in southbound turnover shows money hasn't left — it simply picked Alibaba as the offensive leg, leaving Tencent the stabilizer rather than the breakout.
Maintaining the long. HK$468–480, just above the 20-day at HK$464.91, is the entry zone, with a stop at HK$448 below the 50-day at HK$451.49 and a target of HK$535 just under the 200-day at HK$537.95. RSI at 61 leaves headroom, and 0.36x turnover says no one is rushing to book gains — a relatively safe holding structure.
Continue holding (maintaining long). Price has just reclaimed the 20- and 50-day, stabilizing a previously weak structure, and RSI at 52.2 is neutral — neither chasing strength nor relying on an oversold bounce. The HK$435 stop sits about one ATR (HK$17) below the 50-day (HK$448.86) while staying above the HK$411 52-week low, marking structural failure. The HK$495 target lies between spot and the 200-day (HK$541.79) for 7.8% upside — the first resistance band of a recovery, deliberately short of the HK$689 consensus because the long-term downtrend has not yet reversed. Relative to the AI hardware positions, Tencent's cash flow does not depend on a capex narrative, making it the defensive allocation in this book.
Panics built on third-party data usually retrace half before the earnings verdict; the HK$420 shelf plus the +11% profit divergence underwrites the hold, with a clean stop below the base
Existing long stays on: the double-average base holds, southbound flows returned, and earnings expectations are steady. Add on dips to HK$455-470, exit below HK$448 (under both averages), first target the HK$500 range top
The position still sits on a cushion from the 7/4 entry and sector shrapnel hasn't touched fundamentals; but with the stop this close we neither add nor hope — Monday's tape gets to speak for itself
Down 2.5% this morning at HK$472.00 in the US risk-off echo, 2.5% above the HK$460 stop — the raised stop reports for duty; a break means exit
Up 0.8% this morning at HK$478.00, the +3.6% week putting 6% between price and stop — last week's line-hugging agony bought this week's calm; stop raised to HK$460, holding
Down 0.3% this morning at HK$456.20, 1.4% above the HK$450 stop — still the same exam question: is the trend alive; above the line, holding
Holding (~+7%): sector-beta drawdowns don't justify a discretionary exit, and the stop won't be lowered because 'it's unfair' — discipline earns its keep exactly when tested. With the 50-day and the stop coinciding, a break is a double signal.
Down 0.8%, the first give-back after eight green days — normal breathing on a soft-tech day; stop stays HK$450, holding
Holding (~+10.7% open gain): trend, flows and narrative still resonate. Stop raised to HK$450 to lock in most of the gain, with the next raise beyond HK$500.
Keep the long: a flagpole move with southbound support and dense AI catalysts — target raised to HK$510. Stop up to HK$445 (above the 20-day), locking most of the gain. After seven green days, a pullback is an add, not an exit.
A two-MA breakout, a strengthening weekly, and base-buying support — keep the long. Target the HK$500 round number; a break of HK$430 flags a false breakout. Double-digit growth at 16.6x keeps the odds favorable.
Five percent above the 52-week low, inside a year-long base, with the weekly turning up — a low-risk probe: the cost of being wrong below HK$405 is small, and the room above the 50-day (HK$455) is ample.
15.4x P/E at the valuation floor; 54 analysts imply +61%. Wait for HK beta to stabilize
