# CMSI: China AI Internet Sector Valuation Still Attractive, Top Picks BABA-W , KNOWLEDGE ATLAS , KUAISHOU-W  and JOYY Inc.

CMSI published a research report stating that as artificial intelligence commercialization accelerates, valuations of China’s AI internet sector remain attractive. The broker noted that following expectation resets, HSTECH has underperformed in 2Q26 to date compared with 1Q26. Although valuations of China’s internet sector remain at historical lows, results in 1Q26 demonstrated relatively strong earnings resilience.

The broker said AI remains the core investment theme for China’s internet industry and continues to develop rapidly. Among these, B-end commercialization is accelerating and gradually penetrating white-collar workflows, while C-end commercialization is still at an early stage. WeChat Agent is expected to become an important catalyst in 2H26. Model iteration and progress in domestic chips are key variables.

The broker maintained its recommendation rating on the sector. Its top stock picks are BABA-W (09988.HK) +2.600 (+2.421%) Short selling $2.11B; Ratio 12.165% (Alibaba Group Holding Limited (BABA.US) ), KNOWLEDGE ATLAS (02513.HK) \-4.000 (-0.377%) Short selling $79.21M; Ratio 4.328% , KUAISHOU-W (01024.HK) +0.960 (+2.103%) Short selling $453.04M; Ratio 19.902% , and JOYY Inc. (JOYY.US) . It also suggested paying attention to undervalued companies such as TENCENT (00700.HK) +5.400 (+1.181%) Short selling $2.30B; Ratio 17.433% and MINIMAX-W (00100.HK) \-32.400 (-7.448%) Short selling $36.42M; Ratio 7.258% , believing both have greater potential for valuation recovery.
