Forwarding a news piece today that had a major impact on the Hang Seng 'Food Delivery' Index. The crux: the State Administration for Market Regulation reposted an Economic Daily op-ed arguing the 'food-delivery price war' should end soon. Of course, this is not the first such line from state media, nor an official SAMR stance; it was merely a repost, though it may hint at regulators' leanings.However, Dolphin Research believes that unless regulators step in and forcefully halt delivery subsidies, competition will still be driven by companies' own goals and appetite. As such, the actual impact of this 'signal' is uncertain; it mainly lifts sentiment and could accelerate participants' subsidy rollbacks and loss reduction. $Alibaba(BABA.US) $MEITUAN(03690.HK) $JD.com(JD.US)

$Alibaba(BABA.US) stock’s current performance reflects mixed market sentiment as Alibaba unveils its new XuanTie C950 AI chip, a 5nm processor that is more than three times faster than its previous version and designed to power AI agents by handling complex, multi-step tasks. While the chip launch represents a positive development for China’s efforts to achieve technological self-reliance and could improve supply-chain resilience amid scarce computing power, it is unlikely to have a major impact on Alibaba’s overall revenue. @Bridge Buzz SG
