On July 6, NetEase rose 3.3% in pre-market trading, trading at $133.86/share, with turnover of $31,200.

The movement is directly linked to the Hang Seng Index Company's announcement that NetEase has been included in the Stock Connect program and meets the fast-track inclusion requirements for relevant indices. NetEase will be formally added to the Hang Seng Index series constituent stocks after market close on July 17, effective July 20. The market widely believes this will significantly enhance the liquidity of NetEase's Hong Kong-listed shares and attract greater mainland capital allocation.

Additionally, NetEase officially converted to dual primary listing status and was added to the Stock Connect eligible list on June 30, a timeline notably earlier than institutional expectations. Multiple brokerages maintain bullish ratings, with Morgan Stanley reiterating an Overweight rating with a $158 target, Goldman Sachs raising its H-share target to HK$264, and Bank of America maintaining a Buy rating with a $172 US target. Analysts cite an upcoming new game cycle, including the PC launch of Sea of Remnants in July, as a near-term catalyst alongside the structural liquidity improvement.
