February 9th - Since the beginning of the year, the National Integrated Circuit Industry Investment Funds (Big Fund) share reduction activities in the semiconductor sector have continued to attract market attention. On the evening of February 8th, Anlu Technology announced that its shareholder, the first phase of the Big Fund, plans to reduce its holdings by no more than 2% of the companys total share capital within the next three months. This marks the third time Anlu Technology has faced a share reduction plan from the Big Fund since 2025. Meanwhile, several other semiconductor companies, including Shanghai Silicon Industry, Telink Microelectronics, and Huizhi Microelectronics, have also recently disclosed the latest progress or plans for share reduction by the Big Fund. Based on the information released, both the first and second phases of the Big Fund have conducted share reduction operations, involving mostly listed semiconductor industry chain companies. Despite the frequent share reductions in the short term, industry insiders generally believe that this is a normal investment exit behavior for the Big Fund as an industry investment fund, and its long-term strategic direction of accompanying industry growth and supporting domestic substitution remains unchanged.On February 9th, KSTAR announced that its controlling shareholder, Ningbo KSTAR Venture Capital Partnership (Limited Partnership), plans to reduce its holdings of the companys shares by no more than 5.8222 million shares, representing 1% of the companys total share capital, within three months after 15 trading days from the date of the announcement, through block trades or centralized bidding. The reason for the reduction is its own funding needs; the shares are from shares issued before the initial public offering and shares transferred through equity distribution.TD Cowen: Lowered its target price for Estée Lauder (EL.N) from $130 to $115.AMC Theatres (AMC.N) has filed for listing hybrid securities.February 9th - Morgan Stanley strategists stated that the hype surrounding artificial intelligence (AI) supports a strong sales outlook, and US tech stocks are poised for further gains. The team, led by Michael Wilson, noted that revenue growth expectations for large-cap tech stocks have reached "decade-high levels," while valuations have declined following recent market volatility. Meanwhile, the plunge in software stocks has created "attractive entry points" for companies like Microsoft and Fiat Group. The report stated, "Situations like last week are not uncommon during major investment cycles. Nevertheless, the fundamental tailwinds for AI-enabled sectors remain, and we believe the value of AI application stocks is still not fully recognized by the market."
