Huawei optimism lifts Chinese chip stocks in Hong Kong
Chinese semiconductor shares rallied in Hong Kong and on the mainland after renewed optimism about Huawei's proposed LogicFolding technology. Semiconductor Manufacturing International Corp. and Hua Hong Semiconductor surged more than 16% when trading resumed, while GigaDevice rose about 12% and Montage Technology gained around 6%. Huawei's chip research team led by He Tingbo described a time-scaling method aimed at improving transistor speeds and enabling 1.4-nanometer production by 2031, which analysts say could lower reliance on ASML equipment and speed product launches; the method is unproven at scale and faces a key Kirin test later this year.
