<\/p>\n

Chinese markets are booming with new public stock offerings, energized by the craze for\u00a0artificial intelligence\u00a0and other advanced technology and a growing preference to list shares in Hong Kong and Shanghai.<\/p>\n

\n

In the latest big stock listing, shares in China-founded e-commerce and fast fashion giant Shein are due to debut Tuesday in Hong Kong in a blockbuster initial public offering raising $1.7 billion, in one of the city\u2019s biggest new share sales this year.<\/p>\n

In July,\u00a0CXMT,\u00a0China\u2019s largest memory chipmaker, raised more than $8.6 billion in Shanghai in the second-largest IPO for its Nasdaq-style STAR market, mainland China\u2019s second-largest IPO. Its shares jumped 466% on the first day of trading.<\/p>\n

Unitree, one of China\u2019s leading humanoid robot makers, also\u00a0made its listing debut in Shanghai in August. Shares rose 460% on the first day of trading.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe current IPO boom is powered by investor appetite for AI and robotics,\u201d said Ruiying Zhao, a senior research analyst at S&P Global Market Intelligence. Trading in Shanghai\u2019s stock market, for one, is heavily driven by retail investors.<\/p>\n

AI driving Chinese IPO boom<\/h4>\n

CXMT\u2019s IPO in Shanghai \u201cplaced\u00a0China\u00a0in a strategically significant position in tech manufacturing related to AI,\u201d said Perris Lee, head of APAC equity capital markets for ION Analytics. \u201cIt\u2019s also a testament to China\u2019s tech self-sufficiency ambitions.\u201d<\/p>\n

Founded in China in 2016, the company\u2019s revenue surged more than 700% year-on-year to 50.8 billion yuan (about $7.5 billion) in the first three months of 2026 on a spike in demand for computer chips needed for AI.<\/p>\n

IPO proceeds in Hong Kong and Shanghai so far this year have already surpassed the funding raised last year, according to the financial data platform LSEG.<\/p>\n

It says IPOs and secondary listing activities on the Hong Kong and Shanghai exchanges raised a total of over $54 billion from so far in 2026, surpassing last year\u2019s total of more than $46 billion.<\/p>\n

Combined Hong Kong and Shanghai proceeds so far this year accounted for roughly 21% globally, ranking them only behind only the Nasdaq\u2019s roughly 55% global share, LSEG said. There, the mega\u00a0$75 billion IPO by SpaceX\u00a0in June made the U.S. exchange the world\u2019s biggest IPO market this year.<\/p>\n

Since China limits foreign purchases on mainland exchanges, many Chinese companies do parallel listings in Hong Kong to help raise international capital.<\/p>\n

Fewer big Chinese companies listing overseas<\/h4>\n

Stricter U.S. and Chinese regulatory scrutiny in recent years of big Chinese companies listing in U.S. markets, especially those in strategically important sectors like\u00a0advanced technologies, has led some Chinese companies to stick closer to home.<\/p>\n

Listing overseas typically takes more time compared with doing IPOs in China, said Howie Farn, a capital markets partner at the law firm Freshfields.<\/p>\n

In Hong Kong, recent public stock listings of Apple-supplier Luxshare Precision Industry, and Zhongji Innolight, which makes optical transceivers used in data centers, were among this year\u2019s largest deals and were also a reflection of investor demand for advanced technologies.<\/p>\n

More companies are looking to hold their IPOs in Hong Kong or Shanghai, like\u00a0robotics\u00a0firms AGIBOT and Deep Robotics.<\/p>\n

Shein also explored the possibility of listings in the U.S. and London before opting for Hong Kong.<\/p>\n

Investors are wary of a possible AI bubble in China, too<\/h4>\n

After massive oversubscriptions and huge gains in their share debuts, some companies have seen their market value shrink.<\/p>\n

Chinese robot maker Unitree\u2019s share price had fallen more than 40% as of Friday from its peak share price on the day of its trading debut.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe critical question remains: is the AI sentiment enough?\u201d said Zhao from S&P, as the\u00a0similar question that raised worries among investors in the U.S.\u00a0also now also applies to China. \u201cFor a durable market cycle, investors will demand sustainable revenue, visible profit margins, and realistic valuations.<\/p>\n

The global AI frenzy also has also drawn attention away from companies\u00a0like Shein. \u201cThe AI investment cycle is absorbing much of the risk appetite that would have otherwise flowed to a company like Shein,\u201d said Jacob Cooke, CEO of WPIC Marketing + Technologies.<\/p>\n

Shein\u2019s IPO puts the company\u2019s value at around $27 billion, a fraction of its peak valuation a few years ago, though that is partly due to U.S. and EU moves to restrict de minimus tax-exemptions for imports of small packages.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
