Changxin Technology has launched its share issuance, with total fundraising of about 57.9 billion yuan. According to Jin10, market concerns that the large IPO could create a funding drain, even likening it to PetroChina's 2007 listing, were dismissed by a market veteran as an oversimplification.
The veteran said the current market environment is very different from 2007, noting that policy is moderately loose now, while that period coincided with a rate-hike cycle and the global financial crisis. A-share total market capitalization has risen from 32 trillion yuan to 120 trillion yuan, and average daily turnover has increased from 190 billion yuan to more than 2 trillion yuan. The person added that A-shares use market-value allotment, so investors do not need to freeze subscription funds in advance, and that strategic placements and offline institutional allocations account for a high share of incremental funds rather than relying entirely on existing capital. The veteran also said the impact of large IPOs on indexes is limited, adding that the S&P 500 had a 71.4% success rate 20 days after the listing of the 15 largest U.S. IPOs. Experts said secondary-market performance is driven by multiple factors, and a single IPO has never been the fundamental cause of a correction.
