On November 10, ILUVATAR COREX (09903.HK) rose 15.49% to HK$70.10 on turnover of HK$855 million, the largest gainer in the AI concept pool. A Huafu Securities research note said rising inference volumes are converging with cloud providers' capital expenditure, with strong demand for AI data centres and domestic chips. Reuters, citing IDC, expects China's overall AI accelerator shipments to grow 19% year on year in 2026, with domestic chips taking a larger share. Hong Kong semiconductor names advanced in tandem, with BIRENTECH up 9.05%, MONTAGETECH 6.06%, HUA HONG GRACE 3.76% and SMIC 2.61%.

3. Anthropic Releases Claude Fable 5.2 and Mythos 5.2 as Z.AI Gains 11.11% and MINIMAX-W 10.11%

On November 9 US time, Anthropic, which is preparing an IPO, upgraded its Claude Fable and Claude Mythos models, releasing Claude Fable 5.2 and Claude Mythos 5.2. The company said the new models support long-horizon collaboration among 1,000 agents, show gains in complex coding, scientific reasoning, chart comprehension and robot control tests, deliver up to 30% faster output than the previous generation and cut standard API pricing by 20%. On the IPO, media reports said the 15-day quiet period following its filing ends this week, after which the company plans to launch its roadshow, price in the week of November 16 and list on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under the ticker ANT. Hong Kong LLM names rallied, with Z.AI up 11.11% to HK$482.00 on HK$4.177 billion of turnover and MINIMAX-W up 10.11% to HK$173.10 on HK$2.612 billion.

4. Jiangsu Xinde Semiconductor Technology Rises 28.38% on Debut as a Peer GPU Newcomer Slips

On November 10, Jiangsu Xinde Semiconductor Technology (07672.HK) and a GPU chip newcomer (09917.HK) both listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. Xinde, which priced its offering at HK$8.88 per share, opened 20.50% higher, peaked almost 40% above its issue price during the session and closed up 28.38%. The company provides packaging design, customised packaging products and packaging testing services, covering QFN, BGA, LGA, WLP and 2.5D/3D technologies; it sold 106.56 million H shares, raising gross proceeds of about HK$946 million. The GPU newcomer closed down 7.79% on its first day. The divergent debuts suggest investors are becoming more selective about semiconductor new listings.

5. Google Launches Two Eighth-Generation TPU Variants as Custom Silicon Competition Intensifies

On November 9 US time, Google announced two new variants of its eighth-generation TPU, TPU 8tx and TPU 8i Max. According to media tallies, the company has released four TPU products within a year, pressing ahead with custom silicon and competing systematically with Nvidia in the AI accelerator market. Institutional views hold that compute spending by leading model developers and cloud providers is still expanding, and that the contest between custom chips and general-purpose GPUs will lift demand for advanced process nodes, advanced packaging and high-bandwidth memory.
