On the same day, Governor Stephen Milan submitted his resignation and will depart as Warsh takes office. The reshuffle opens a window for policy recalibration; Warsh leans hawkish and advocates a mix of QT and rate cuts, and may tweak the inflation-control framework, while Milan's exit after six dissenting votes weakens the dovish bloc, adding near-term uncertainty to policy and impacting global liquidity and asset pricing. **2.** The PBoC released Apr credit data: new TSF was RMB 620.7bn (down RMB 539.2bn YoY); new RMB loans were -RMB 10bn (down RMB 290bn YoY; a rare negative print). M2 rose 8.6% YoY, M1 rose 5.0%, and outstanding TSF grew 7.8% YoY. Softer credit mainly reflected mortgage contraction and a shift by corporates toward direct financing, while M2 improved on higher non-bank deposits, keeping liquidity loose. ## **🐬 Single Stocks** **1.** $XIAOMI-W(01810.HK) Xiaomi unveiled official images of the YU7 GT in 'Cherry Red', confirming a late-May launch. Positioned as a sports-grade SUV, it offers a CLTC range of 705 km and up to 1,003 hp, with showroom vehicles arriving from May 16. The model fills Xiaomi's high-end, high-performance SUV gap and continues its 'performance + utility' playbook, leveraging Nürburgring tuning and long range to benchmark against the Porsche Cayenne Turbo GT. **2.** $XPeng(XPEV.US) He Xiaopeng announced the new tech-flagship SUV, XPeng GX, will debut on May 20 with a presale price of RMB 399,800. Built on the SEPA 3.0 architecture, it offers both BEV and EREV powertrains, and features L4-grade autonomous hardware plus a garage-roaming capability. XPeng is entering the RMB 400k full-size SUV white space, taking on Li Auto L9 and Aito M9; with advanced automated driving, dual powertrains and safety redundancy as key differentiators, it could break the brand's price ceiling. **3\.
