Deep News
Feb 11

On February 11, the military sector showed divergent trends. The popular military ETF Huabao (512810), which had risen over 1% in the morning session, turned negative in the afternoon, with frequent intraday premiums indicating active buying interest.

Among constituent stocks, Hailanxin surged 15% before pulling back, currently up over 5%. Multiple leading shipbuilding stocks showed strength, with China Dynamics, which hit the daily limit up yesterday, continuing to rise 4%, reaching a new over five-year high. On the downside, Triangle Defense and Aero Engine Control led the declines, falling 4%.

Recent developments include Hailanxin winning a 458 million yuan contract for a maritime rocket recovery command and measurement vessel project and receiving a first prize for scientific advancement for its "Inland Vessel End-Cloud Integrated Intelligent Navigation System," drawing market attention.

Zheshang Securities' 2026 shipbuilding industry strategy notes that the industry continues to concentrate in China, with new orders accounting for 69% of global totals in 2025, order backlogs representing 67% of worldwide volume, and ship completions making up 57% of global output. Chinese shipbuilding market share is increasingly concentrating among leading enterprises, showing a clear "Matthew Effect," where shipyards with high capacity and advanced technology are likely to benefit first.

Public information shows that the benchmark CSI Military Index tracked by Huabao Military ETF (512810) covers four leading shipbuilding companies including China Shipbuilding, China Dynamics, China Shipbuilding Defense, and China Haiyang, along with two marine equipment leaders Tianhai Defense and Hailanxin.

Regarding overall sector outlook, Huatai Securities believes that during the "15th Five-Year Plan" period, Chinese military equipment demand will maintain stable total volume with significant structural opportunities. New growth areas may emerge in domains mentioned in the 15th Five-Year Plan proposals, including new domains and qualities, unmanned intelligent systems and countermeasures, advanced weapons, and low-cost equipment. The firm recommends focusing on two main themes: new military products and new markets.
