Wafer factory "bargains for orders"? Insiders: It's not so exaggerated that there is no need for drastic price reduction at present. Recently, some industry media reported that the Chinese mainland wafer foundry has overflowed its capacity and is striving for more IC design factory orders to return at a low price discount. A manager of Chinese mainland Head Wafer Factory told reporters that the actual situation was "not as serious as reported by the media, and not so exaggerated". The source said that since the fourth quarter of this year, the quotation of its wafer factory has been "stable at present". In the fourth quarter, product orders from display drivers, power management and other categories were "not bad", and the market demand was similar to that previously publicly disclosed. The independent control of the mainland market is still the main theme. It is understood that the fourth quarter is usually the "off-season" of the wafer foundry industry, and downstream customers will review the sales plan at the beginning of the year, and they are not willing to stock up and receive goods. A person from a consumer chip company in Chinese mainland said, "Fab factories generally adjust prices according to market supply and demand." Yang Shengxin, a senior analyst of Sigmaintell's semiconductor business unit, said in an interview that according to the observation of Sigma Intell, Chinese mainland's wafer factory decreased by about 5% in the fourth quarter of 2024, and concentrated on 12-inch products; The price of China Taiwan Province Wafer Factory has not changed significantly.

According to the November credit data released by the People's Bank of China yesterday, the financing demand of the real economy continued to show a marginal improvement trend under the continuous effect of a package of incremental policies. In the month, RMB loans increased by 580 billion yuan, and personal mortgages stabilized and rebounded. In the month, medium and long-term loans of households increased by 300 billion yuan, a significant increase from the previous month. The change of residents' medium and long-term loans is closely related to residents' willingness to buy houses. In November, the medium and long-term loans of residents improved significantly compared with October, mainly because personal loans stabilized and rebounded, which confirmed each other with the marginal improvement of real estate market transactions in that month. In November, the year-on-year growth rate of commercial housing transaction area in 30 large and medium-sized cities turned from negative to positive, and the transaction has remained relatively active since December. The reporter learned from the central bank that with the gradual effectiveness of the package of incremental policies to stabilize the real estate market, the phenomenon of early repayment of personal mortgages has been significantly reduced, and the growth rate of housing loans has recently picked up. In October this year, the amount of personal mortgage loans exceeded 400 billion yuan, and the amount of early repayment decreased. The proportion of early repayment in the balance of personal housing loans was significantly lower than that before the introduction of a package of incremental policies.

For some time, GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide -1) diet pills have caught fire in the United States and other western countries, and gradually marched into emerging markets. At present, two major pharmaceutical companies, Novo Nordisk in Denmark and Lilly in the United States, occupy most of the market share in the field of GLP-1 diet pills, but other pharmaceutical companies are also actively deploying the track. In 2026, Novo Nordisk's patent on smeagoutide will expire in China and India, while the patent on liraglutide, the main effective ingredient of the previous generation of GLP-1 diet pills, has expired in China and India. The industry believes that China and India, as two emerging markets, have a strong momentum of innovation and development in the pharmaceutical industry of both countries, and have great potential in the GLP-1 diet pills track. The entry of Chinese and Indian pharmaceutical companies will make the international competition in the field of GLP-1 diet pills more intense. (Global Times)
