AH shares fluctuated higher, the photovoltaic sector surged, triggering a wave of limit-up stocks, precious metals rose sharply again, Alibaba increased by over 3%, and metal futures rallied across the board

International gold and silver hit new highs, with gold prices approaching the $5,000 mark and silver breaking through $99. The precious metals sector in A-shares and Hong Kong stocks surged strongly, with stocks like Hunan Silver and Sichuan Gold experiencing significant gains. Driven by China's submission of an application for a constellation of 200,000 satellites and Elon Musk's latest speech at the Davos Forum, the space photovoltaic sector led the photovoltaic concept stocks.

On January 23, A-shares fluctuated upward, with all three major indices rising collectively. Photovoltaic concept stocks and precious metals surged, leading the market. Sectors such as biotechnology and cultural media were active. Hong Kong stocks also strengthened in the morning session, with the Hang Seng Index rising nearly 1%. Most tech stocks rose, with Alibaba increasing over 3%. According to previous reports, it is preparing to advance the independent listing of its AI chip subsidiary, Tianshu. In the bond market, government bond futures generally rebounded. In terms of commodities, domestic commodity futures rose broadly, with platinum up over 9% and Shanghai silver up 8%.

The photovoltaic concept continued to strengthen, with the space photovoltaic sector leading the gains. Drinda achieved a two-day limit-up, while GCLSI, JINCHEN MACHINERY, MYSE, TOPRAYSOLAR, and several other stocks hit the limit-up, with Liancheng CNC, Maxwell, and Risen Energy rising over 10%.

In terms of news, according to a previous article from Wallstreetcn, Musk stated at the Davos Forum that an area of solar panels measuring 100 square miles could power the entire United States. He revealed that teams from SpaceX and Tesla are working to establish an annual solar manufacturing capacity of 100 gigawatts in the U.S. within about three years.

Musk stated that photovoltaics are the optimal energy solution, and SpaceX will launch solar AI satellites in the future, with SpaceX and Tesla planning to build 100GW of photovoltaic capacity in the U.S.; in the future, a space photovoltaic base should be established to deploy data centers.

Shenwan Hongyuan's research report stated that China has submitted applications for over 200,000 satellite constellations, marking a new phase of large-scale deployment in commercial space, which will directly drive long-term demand for space photovoltaics. Space photovoltaics face a technological iteration path from efficient gallium arsenide to large-scale silicon-based HJT, and eventually to perovskite tandem in the long term.
