Shanghai, Mar 9, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) – In early March 2026, Huatai Securities held its 2026 Spring Investment Summit in Shanghai. Convened under the banner of seizing opportunity, embracing innovation and planning for the long term, the summit brought together investors, corporates and policy experts to examine market dynamics amid a period of profound structural change and to identify forward-looking investment opportunities.The two-day event featured a flagship plenary session alongside 11 sector-focused forums, addressing a broad range of market-defining topics, including the outlook for US politics, defense technology, policy interpretation following China’s “Two Sessions”, and the macroeconomic and market outlook for 2026.In her opening remarks, Dr. LIANG Hong, Chair of the Institutional Business Committee at Huatai Securities, observed that China is at a critical revival moment and delivering a strong start to the 15th Five-Year Plan will be the policy priority in 2026. A convergence of structural forces is reshaping upstream pricing dynamics and industry fundamentals: with PPI turning positive; building a unified national market; deepening supply-side rationalization reforms; the approaching 2030 carbon-peak milestone; elevated resource-security priorities; and a new direction for AI-capex. She noted that the upward re-rating of Chinese assets began in 2025 will broaden and deepen this year, with continued conviction in investment themes spanning technology, power, chemicals and rare metals amid the interplay of geopolitical realignment and the AI supercycle.Huatai Research’s macro team led in-depth discussions on the current economic backdrop, asset-allocation themes and market strategy.Focusing on key macro variables, Eva YI, Chief Economist at Huatai Securities, elaborated on what she described as a “more commodity-intensive global capex cycle” — one driven by the infrastructure build-out of AI-related capital expenditure, a renewed upcycle in global defense spending, a trough in China’s real estate construction costs, and a recovery in the global manufacturing cycle. A sustained rebound in PPI, in her view, will serve as the leading indicator of this round of asset re-rating in China.Against this backdrop, Huatai’s economics research team has recently revised up its forecasts for China’s PPI and the RMB exchange rate. Eva noted that pro-cyclical appreciation of the RMB reflects improving returns on investment and declining risk premia, potentially enabling USD-denominated earnings growth of Chinese corporates to outpace that of major developed markets for the first time since 2021 — which could structurally change global asset allocation landscape.On the core asset-allocation themes for the year, ZHANG Jiqiang, Head of Huatai Research and Chief Analyst for Fixed Income, highlighted the search for “pricing power” as a defining market narrative. The evolution of the geopolitical order and the AI revolution remain key perspectives in identifying structural opportunities. While global liquidity conditions may soften this year, RMB appreciation and the safe characteristics of Chinese markets are expected to attract capital inflows, with maturing domestic deposits providing additional liquidity support. While near-term uncertainty surrounding Iran remains a key risk, investors are shifting from pure risk-off trading sentiment to pricing in stagflation concerns, as the duration of the conflict remains the critical factor to consider.Across asset classes, ZHANG expects equities and commodities to outperform bonds. Structurally, upstream resource sectors are favored over downstream consumption, hardware over software, and export-oriented industries are likely to retain competitive momentum.Turning to China’s A-share market, HE Kang, Chief Strategist and Co-Chief for Quantitative Research at Huatai Research, pointed to two pivotal shifts — changes in the AI narrative and expectations for a return to positive PPI — that may validate the annual style call of “rebalancing between the old and new economies”. From late March into April, as macro data and corporate earnings are released, markets are likely to refocus on fundamentals. High-growth segments could cluster in cyclical sectors, manufacturing and TMT, within a backdrop of a structurally differentiated, modest recovery. Overseas expansion will remain a critical variable for earnings improvement. Should first-quarter macro data surprise to the upside, large-cap value stocks that are more sensitive to fundamental recovery could see scope for style rotation.He also highlighted that quantitative models suggest equities and commodities tend to benefit in an environment of ample liquidity and moderately rising inflation. In particular, commodities may see the resonance of short- and medium-term cycles in the second half of the year, offering stronger potential gains — a view consistent with Huatai economics research team’s broader thesis of a global commodity-intensive supercycle.On Hong Kong equities, LI Yujie, Strategist at Huatai Research, argued that the market’s primary driver in 2026 has shifted from valuation and liquidity to earnings. Expectations for profit recovery center on three themes: sectors linked to a marginal stabilization in property, such as building materials; pricing opportunities arising from tight supply-demand balances, including lithium mining, livestock and dairy, and transportation; and technological bottlenecks, with a focus on domestically developed semiconductors in the Hong Kong market.LI underscored that technology remains a clear overarching theme, with debate focused on which segments will ultimately capture value in this wave of innovation. For China’s AI ecosystem, she advised against concentrating exposure solely on upstream chips or downstream applications, advocating instead a bottom-up approach to identifying high-quality companies with competitive potential across the value chain.The plenary session also welcomed a distinguished lineup of external voices. GUO Kai, Executive President of CF40 Institute, offered his assessment of the macroeconomic outlook. ZHAO Hai, Director of the Department of International Politics at the National Institute for Global Strategy under CASS, addressed the shifting global order. XIE Suming, Member of the Strategic Advisory Committee and Chief Analyst at Yuanwang Think Tank, shared perspectives on defense technology innovation. Copyright 2026 ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.

HONG KONG, March 8, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) – The 42nd Hong Kong International Jewellery Show and the 12th Hong Kong International Diamond, Gem & Pearl Show wrapped up successfully today. Organised by the Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC) under the “Two Shows, Two Venues” format, the twin shows together drew some 80,000 buyers from 150 countries and regions, with the Diamond, Gem & Pearl Show welcoming over 28,000 buyers from 125 countries and regions and the Jewellery Show attracting over 51,000 buyers from 140 countries and regions.Jenny Koo, Deputy Executive Director of the HKTDC, said: “The twin jewellery shows hosted about 4,000 exhibitors from more than 40 countries and regions. Buyer attendance from the Philippines, Korea, Australia and Switzerland all recorded significant growth, a testament to the strong international standing of the twin shows. Over 30 industry seminars and events were held during the shows, keeping industry professionals informed of the latest market and industry trends. We were pleased to welcome three pavilions making their debut at the show, namely the Hard Pure Gold Pavilion, the Zhushan Turquoise Pavilion and the Hong Kong Watch Manufacturers Association Pavilion, each showcasing their jewellery craftsmanship to international buyers.”Industry optimistic about Korea and ASEAN marketsTo gain deeper insights into jewellery industry trends, the HKTDC conducted an on-site survey of 1,509 exhibitors and buyers. Results indicate that both buyers and exhibitors are cautiously optimistic about the economic outlook. Key findings are:Market and industry outlook44.3% of respondents expect overall sales to increase in the next one to two years; 49% expect sales to remain stable.Respondents view the following markets as having good or very good growth potential for jewellery products over the next two years: Korea (73.2%), ASEAN (71.8%), Chinese Mainland (68.5%), Taiwan (65.3%), Australia (64.1%).For those markets with the greatest development potential, most respondents plan to explore: Europe (20.8%), ASEAN (16.8%), Chinese Mainland (15.3%), Japan (15.3%), Taiwan (10.8%).In the next three years, technological advancements in artificial intelligence (66.1%), social media (43.7%), and big data (41.5%) are expected to have the greatest impact on the jewellery industry.Product trendsProducts with the strongest growth potential this year include trendy fashion jewellery (57.3%), precious jewellery (35.1%), and designer jewellery (21.1%).The most popular precious metal products in 2026 are karat yellow gold (40.1%), karat white gold (31.7%) and pure gold (28%).The most popular gemstones this year are diamonds (28.8%), followed by rubies (24.7%) and pearls (19.7%).Riding the gold wave: Chinese Mainland hard pure gold makers go globalThe government’s latest Budget Speech highlighted plans to strengthen Hong Kong’s status as an international gold trading market which is expected to bring new momentum to gold demand in the jewellery market. Adding to the excitement, the World Gold Council led 10 exhibitors from the Chinese Mainland for the first time to launch the Hard Pure Gold Pavilion at this year’s show, which proved to be one of the show's major highlights.Regional CEO Roland Wang said: “The Hong Kong International Jewellery Show has been instrumental in helping Chinese gold manufacturers connect with international buyers and expand their market reach. We have already received a considerable number of orders in just the first three days. Our current focus is on developing markets in Southeast Asia, the Middle East and India, where interest in hard pure gold products is steadily growing. More affordable, lighter-weight hard pure gold pieces are proving particularly attractive to younger middle-class consumers.”Sharon Weng, Deputy General Manager of YueHao Jewellery, a Shenzhen-based exhibitor at the Hard Pure Gold Pavilion, said: “Expanding our overseas client base is a key business priority for us this year, and the show has provided the ideal platform to pursue that goal. We have also established connections with Southeast Asian markets, including Malaysia, Singapore and Thailand." Another Chinese Mainland exhibitor specialising in hard pure gold jewellery expressed plans to set up an office in Hong Kong in the near future, to better leverage the city as a springboard for global expansion.Sales surpass expectations as diamonds captivate buyersSales at the shows this year exceeded expectations for many exhibitors. Youngeun Kim, founder of Soyou, a Korean exhibitor, said: "Through the world's largest jewellery trade platform, we have successfully connected with potential buyers from the Chinese Mainland, Africa and the United Kingdom, and expect our sales to grow by 30% compared with last year."Hong Kong exhibitor SimStar Asia Limited, which specialises in high-value, investment-grade diamonds, secured several orders from buyers in Europe and the United States during the show, with total transactions running into the millions of US dollars. The company also projected a 10% increase in annual sales and noted that demand for high-clarity, top-colour white diamonds in the 5 to 10-carat range remains robust, while rare red and blue diamonds are also drawing keen interest from buyers.This year, the Hall of Fame grew by more than 40%. Emre Can, Export Sales Manager of Zen Diamond, a Turkish exhibitor, shared that while the company initially came with the aim of expanding into Asian markets, buyers from the United Kingdom and the United States had already expressed interest on Day One. Existing clients from Europe and South America also travelled to meet face to face, which is a testament to the global appeal of branded jewellery.Designer jewellery on the rise as new generation embraces personalisationThe shows welcomed over 50 designer exhibitors, including 10 Korean designers making their debut at the fair. They were pleased with their results and are already considering expanding their presence at next year's edition. A Korean designer exhibitor also shared that new enquiries from potential buyers had been received, particularly from Europe, and was pleasantly surprised to receive one from Poland. A seminar featuring Paola De Luca, Founder and Creative Director of Trendvision Jewellery + Forecasting, gave attendees an in-depth look at emerging jewellery design trends, exploring how personalisation can respond to the younger consumer market.The shows also hosted three design competitions: the 27th Hong Kong Jewellery Design Competition, the Hong Kong International Fashion Chuk Kam Jewellery Design Competition, and the inaugural International Fei Cui Jewellery Design Competition. Award ceremonies were held on-site, with winning pieces on display across the venue, offering buyers a first look at the latest creative works while fostering closer ties between designers and jewellery manufacturers.Global exhibitors tap into new opportunitiesThe twin shows brought together exhibitors from around the world, with Uzbekistan making its debut appearance. Fonon Jewelry House, an Uzbek exhibitor, showcased gold pieces with distinctive Central Asian cultural influences, drawing strong interest from international buyers. Alisher Romanov, the Head of Foreign Economic Affairs of this exhibitor, said: "We are looking to use Hong Kong as a springboard for expansion into other Asian markets. We have already connected with potential buyers from the Chinese Mainland, Malaysia and the Philippines, and expect sales to reach approximately USD 50 million." Another Uzbek exhibitor also shared that it had received a jewellery order worth as much as USD 35 million from a Hong Kong buyer. The Uzbekistan delegation also seized the occasion to formally sign a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the HKTDC and the Hong Kong Jewellery Manufacturers' Association, with the aim of further promoting Uzbekistan's jewellery to global markets through Hong Kong's platform and strengthening bilateral trade ties.Buyers seek diverse offeringsTurkish buyer, Kasapoglu Jewellery came to the show with the specific goal of sourcing new loose diamond suppliers, setting aside a procurement budget of over USD 900,000. US-based diamond wholesaler David Abraham & Co found the show to be a true one-stop destination, discovering services ranging from certification to repolishing, as well as sourcing gemological equipment and tools. The company met with 35 exhibitors from Hong Kong, India, Israel, the Middle East, Europe and the United States in a single day. China National Gold Group Gold Jewellery Co., Ltd. from Beijing made the most of both shows, sourcing turquoise samples at the Diamond, Gem & Pearl Show and explored fine jewellery offerings at the Jewellery Show. The company noted that demand for both high-end gemstones and mass-market jewellery is growing in tandem, with younger consumers increasingly drawn to delicate and refined designs. Its total procurement budget across both shows is USD 200,000.Golden Silver Z.L S.A., a major 925 sterling silver jewellery supplier in Latin America and a loyal visitor to the shows for over 20 years, returned again this year and confirmed silver jewellery orders with three exhibitors, with combined transactions exceeding USD 1.9 million.Online-offline integration expands horizonsDue to the impact of geopolitical situation, some buyers from certain regions were unable to attend in person. The HKTDC responded promptly with a range of support measures. These included on-site support for exhibitors with promotional material placement, as well as helping affected buyers rearrange flights and accommodation to defer their arrivals by one to two days.Meanwhile, the shows continue to adopt the EXHIBITION+ online and offline hybrid format, enabling enterprises to extend their physical exhibition negotiations to online matching platforms. Exhibitors and buyers can engage in AI-powered business matching through the HKTDC Marketplace App's "Click2Match" and hktdc.com Sourcing, while buyers can also use Scan2Match to scan exhibitors’ QR codes and continue discussions with exhibitors online after the show.For buyers from affected regions who were unable to travel to Hong Kong for sourcing, the show facilitated over 100 online business matching sessions, helping the industry sustain momentum and seize opportunities during a challenging period.The HKTDC continues to help exhibitors tap into the Chinese Mainland market through e-commerce channels. This year, two major platforms, Taobao Tmall and, for the first time, Douyin partnered with the shows, involving 10 exhibitors and more than 30 influencers and KOLs.

SINGAPORE, Mar 9, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - AI Labs, an AI-driven crypto trading technology company backed by Academic Labs, announced the launch of an AI-assisted platform designed to help cryptocurrency traders analyze market data and respond more efficiently to changing market conditions. As automated tools and algorithmic strategies become more common in global digital asset markets, the platform integrates visual analysis, narrative data monitoring, and automated trade execution features intended to support more structured and data-driven trading decisions.The fastest traders in today's crypto markets may not always be humans. As digital asset markets increasingly incorporate automation, many traders now rely on algorithmic systems that can monitor markets continuously and react to signals with minimal delay.A crypto project called AI Labs (ticker: AIX) is building an AI-enabled platform that combines visual reasoning, narrative intelligence, and automated execution to help users interpret market data and respond to signals more efficiently than traditional manual analysis alone."Markets are entering an era where the use of artificial intelligence is becoming more common in trading strategies," said Kingston Kwek, owner of AI Labs. "Our goal is to make analytical tools that are often used by institutional trading teams more accessible to a wider group of crypto traders."At the center of AI Labs' platform is a visual reasoning engine that analyzes charts not simply as static images, but as evolving market structures.Using computer vision and multimodal AI techniques, the system can identify potential liquidity zones, resistance levels, and broader market patterns within short timeframes.Alongside this, AI Labs has developed a narrative intelligence layer that scans information across the crypto ecosystem. This includes movements associated with large crypto wallets, developer updates, and shifts in online sentiment—signals that traders often monitor when assessing possible market trends.Instead of only placing individual buy or sell orders, traders can define broader trading parameters using the AI system. The platform can then execute trades automatically based on predefined conditions, such as capital inflows, volatility changes, or funding-rate shifts.The objective is to help reduce emotional decision-making and allow traders to stay aligned with their strategies while automated systems monitor market activity continuously.AI Labs' platform is currently onboarding new users, with reported monthly trading activity exceeding $1 billion across the platform.Media ContactBrand: AI Labs (Backed by Academic Labs)Contact: Media teamWebsite: https://academic-labs.org Copyright 2026 ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.

TOKYO, Mar 9, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - As International Women's Day prompts renewed focus on women's health, OMRON Healthcare has released a new Women's Heart Health Factbook spotlighting an often-overlooked issue: the intersection between menopause, hypertension, and long-term cardiovascular risk.An estimated 32% of women aged 30-79 worldwide are living with hypertension. Yet only 59% are diagnosed, and just 23% achieve effective blood pressure control. That equates to less than a quarter of hypertensive women managing to stabilise their blood pressure.Cardiovascular disease remains the leading cause of death in women globally, with ischemic heart disease and stroke accounting for the majority of cases. Risk often accelerates during and after menopause, as declining estrogen levels affect vascular health and blood pressure regulation.Women also face additional life-stage factors that may influence cardiovascular outcomes, including pregnancy-related hypertension and hormonal contraceptive use, underscoring the importance of consistent monitoring across the lifespan.Expert perspective"Despite being the leading cause of death for women globally, cardiovascular disease is frequently underdiagnosed and undertreated in women due to longstanding biases in research, clinical guidelines and symptom recognition," said Prof. Alta Schutte, Principal Theme Lead of Cardiac, Vascular and Metabolic Medicine in the Faculty of Medicine and Health at UNSW Sydney, Australia."Menopause is not only a major life transition - it is also a cardiovascular turning point," added Karel Herberigs, Managing Director, OMRON Healthcare EMEA. "Greater awareness and routine monitoring can help close a persistent care gap and support earlier intervention."Archanna Mohangoo, Medical Marketing Manager (EMEA), said: "Too often, symptoms such as fatigue, disrupted sleep, or heart palpitations are attributed solely to menopause, when they may in some cases signal underlying conditions such as hypertension or atrial fibrillation (AFib), which can significantly increase stroke and heart disease risk if left undetected. This Factbook aims to encourage women and healthcare providers alike to look more closely at cardiovascular health during this stage of life."Potential coverage angles- The global hypertension care gap in women - Menopause as a cardiovascular risk inflection point - Why blood pressure monitoring should remain a priority beyond reproductive years - The under-recognised burden of heart disease in women - Prevention and early detection strategies across the lifespanThe full Women's Heart Health Factbook is available to download from: https://brandportal.healthcare.omron.com/share/365D593E-78F0-4F35-9C8A589508CB5951/For interviews, expert commentary, or additional data, please contact:omronhealthcare-pr@kyodo-pr.co.jp Copyright 2026 ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.
