Development trend of Chinese concept stocks:

Chinese concept stocks were once a combination of “emerging huge market” and “disruptive innovation”. There are no "Indian concept stocks" or "Southeast Asian concept stocks" in the U.S. capital market, but there are "Chinese concept stocks". "Chinese concept stocks" were once considered the most dynamic companies outside the United States. According to statistics, in 2020, there were 39 Chinese concept stocks listed in the United States, and in the first half of 2021 alone, this number has reached 37.

There is every reason to believe that without the intervention of regulatory policies, the number of Chinese companies listed in the United States in 2021 will exceed that in 2020. However, following the Didi listing incident and the data security compliance review, Chinese technology companies are facing pressure from regulatory agencies and various lawsuits. Overseas listings after July 2021, especially listings in the United States, have been pressed on the pause button. On March 10, 2022, Chinese concept stocks plummeted, with 38 Chinese concept stocks falling by more than 10%, and many stocks hitting record low stock prices.
