China's Auto Sector in a Geopolitical Bind -- Market Talk

Dow Jones
2025/10/21

0246 GMT - China's auto sector faces mounting geopolitical pressures, with Europe demanding tech transfers for new investments and China restricting such transfers, UOB Kay Hian analysts Ken Lee and Bella Lu say in a note. They view the EU's proposal as unlikely to pass in its current form, though first movers with approved projects in Europe would benefit if the policy is implemented. Beijing's tighter smart-driving access rules will likely improve safety and strengthen global trust in Chinese brands, favoring established companies such as BYD, Geely and XPeng, while weighing on struggling brands such as Li Auto. UOB maintains its market weight rating on the sector, preferring auto parts manufacturers, OEMs and dealers. Its top picks are CATL and Geely, while its top sells are BYD and Li Auto.
