1. The cross-industry investment of computing power should consider their capabilities
According to the article, it is observed that there are many listed companies that are not related to artificial intelligence and computing power are conducting "cross-industry" investment, such as main office chair companies, textile and dye companies, beverage and food companies, and alcohol sales companies, etc., have entered the investment in an attempt to get a piece of the pie. Cross-industry listed companies that invest in computing power must bear the pressure of investing large amounts of money in the early stage, and taking into account the slow realization of computing power performance and the unclear situation of downstream application fields in the early development stage. Therefore, the "cross-industry" listed companies investment in computing power needs to be considered in many aspects and do what they can.
2. Since the beginning of the year, more than 800 A-share listed companies have disclosed repurchase plans, and the total number has exceeded that of last year
Since 2024, more than 800 A-share listed companies have disclosed repurchase plans, exceeding the number of 716 in 2023, with a maximum repurchase amount of 90 billion yuan. With the continuous improvement of the capital market system and the change of the concept of managers and listed companies, the repurchase behavior of the A-share market is becoming standardized and long-term. Some industry experts believe that the enthusiasm for share repurchase of A-share companies continues to rise, reflecting not only the prominent market value and changes in management and supervision concepts, but also is inseparable from the increasing number of high-quality listed companies in the A-share market. These obvious changes reflect the new trend of high-quality development of China's capital market.
