Haberin tamamı

Chinese-American billionaire investor Duan Yongping, often called China’s Warren Buffett, has added 30,000 shares of Shanghai-listed baijiu maker Kweichou Moutai to his portfolio in his third public stake increase this year amid a deep sector-wide adjustment.

Moutai’s premium valuation has long relied heavily on corporate and social gifting demand. Yet stricter supervision, more prudent corporate spending and ongoing anti-corruption efforts in recent years have dented demand, according to industry observers.

“We believe demand remains sluggish for the sector as a whole, but conditions vary by category,” said Jennifer Song, senior equity analyst at Morningstar. “Premium baijiu – especially Moutai – and leading mass-market baijiu brands are showing early signs of stabilisation.”

Most other players, particularly sub-premium names, were still struggling with channel destocking and had yet to confirm a bottom, she added.

Once the most expensive mainland-listed stock, shares of Moutai edged up 1.86 per cent to 1258.62 yuan on Wednesday. So far this year, the stock has declined about 8.6 per cent.

Chinese baijiu sales have deteriorated since the second half of 2024, and the sector has lagged the broader market owing to an ageing population and lower per capita drinking rates, according to Morningstar.

On Monday, Duan posted on Xueqiu, a Beijing-based social and trading platform, that he had bought some Moutai shares. He showed a screenshot indicating he bought 30,000 shares at 1,230.85 yuan per share, for a total investment of 36.93 million yuan (US$5.5 million).

Earlier this year, Duan said investing in Moutai required little macroeconomic analysis, as its unique value was “irreplaceable”. The brand’s official app had curbed counterfeiting and price speculation, unlocking consumer demand, he said.

“Duan’s rationale has consistently been long-term,” Song said. “Consumers may drink less but better, and a short-term sales slowdown does not change Moutai’s long-term value. This is largely in line with our view.”

The distiller’s second-half financial results would improve compared with the first half, helped by a low base, she added.

Over the medium to long term, the sector was expected to become zero-sum, such that only companies with durable competitive advantages would emerge as long-term winners by taking market share, she added.

In the first six months, Moutai posted sales of 92.28 billion yuan, up 1.3 per cent year on year, while its net profit fell 1.95 per cent from a year earlier to 44.52 billion yuan.

“The baijiu sector may gradually bottom out, with listed liquor firms expected to see earnings improvement on a low base,” Shengang Securities said in a report last week.
