Latest: Korean QFI Has Bought Changxin Technology
Latest Data Shows Korean QFI Has Purchased Changxin Technology
According to data from SEIBro (under Korea Securities Depository, KSD), Korean investors, acting as Qualified Foreign Investors (QFI), have been actively purchasing shares of Changxin Technology (stock code 688825), a company recently listed on China's Sci-Tech Innovation Board (STAR Market). Over the past month until August 18, they made a net purchase of this stock worth approximately $45.32 million (around CNY 307 million), making it the top A-share by net purchase volume for Korean investors during that period. This activity has significantly boosted overall Korean net buying in A-shares.
As Changxin Technology is not yet included in the Stock Connect schemes, QFI is currently the only channel for overseas investors like these Koreans to access its shares. SEIBro data indicates Korean buying began as early as July 28, the stock's second trading day. The stock appeared in Korean investor purchase lists using a temporary virtual ISIN code in settlement instructions, as its official international code had not yet been assigned.
The listing has garnered significant international attention. On its first trading day (July 27), the actively managed U.S. ETF Tema Memory ETF (DISK) swiftly added Changxin Technology to its portfolio, giving it a substantial 10.56% weighting. Another active ETF, Roundhill Memory ETF (DRAM), also quickly included the stock. Furthermore, global index provider MSCI has added Changxin Technology to its MSCI China All Shares Index, prompting passive fund inflows.
Analysts highlight Changxin Technology's unique position to serve China's rapidly growing AI ecosystem amid a global semiconductor memory supply shortage driven by AI demand. Besides Changxin Technology, other A-shares heavily bought by Korean investors recently include Weichai Power, Demingli, Changdian Technology, and CSOP China STAR Chip ETF.
