According to Jin10, these three themes have recently shown high industry prosperity. In terms of overseas computing power, major model manufacturers are investing in large-scale data centers and power resources, indicating a clear trend towards assetization of computing power.

In terms of investment, domestic computing power shows the strongest short-term flexibility, benefiting from model iteration, domestic substitution, performance realization, and improved risk appetite. Overseas computing power infrastructure presents strong mid-term certainty, with overseas AI capital expenditure expected to drive demand for servers, optical modules, liquid cooling, and power equipment. The lithium battery industry is in a recovery phase, with energy storage production plans providing real support, while sodium batteries, fast charging, and condensed state batteries serve as long-term catalysts.
