Analysis of the Reasons for Innoscience (02577.HK) Being Popular and Its Market Impact

Innoscience (02577.HK) recently entered the popularity list of Hong Kong stocks on the East Money App [1]. The core reasons for becoming a popular stock include two dimensions: First, the index adjustment announced by Hang Seng Indexes on December 11, which will remove it from the “Hang Seng Stock Connect Software & Semiconductor (Investable) Index” (the index is renamed “Hang Seng Stock Connect Software Theme Index”) and take effect on December 16 [2][6]; Second, the company’s important breakthroughs in GaN (Gallium Nitride) technology application, including the successful installation of the new generation 6.6kW GaN on-board charger system in Changan Automobile [4], and the strategic cooperation with ON Semiconductor (expected to bring hundreds of millions of dollars in GaN product sales revenue in the next few years) [5]. Affected by the news of index removal, the Hong Kong stock semiconductor sector has undergone collective adjustments, and stocks such as Hua Hong Semiconductor, which were removed in the same category, have fallen sharply [3][6]. Although the real-time price and trading volume data of Innoscience have not been fully obtained [0], this news usually triggers passive selling pressure from index funds and short-term trading volume expansion [0].

1. Divergence between short-term negative factors and long-term potential
   : Index removal brings short-term liquidity and valuation pressure [2][6], but the company’s technical breakthroughs in GaN on-board charging and other fields and cross-border cooperation provide technical and order support for long-term development [4][5].
2. Significant sector linkage effect
   : The sharp fluctuations of similar stocks such as Hua Hong Semiconductor reflect the market’s strong reaction to semiconductor index adjustments, and Innoscience may face similar short-term linkage risks [3][6].
3. Obvious divergence in market sentiment
   : The increase in media and investor attention [1][2][4][6] indicates that the market has both negative expectations due to index removal and long-term optimism about its GaN technology prospects [0].

• Main Risks
  :
  1. Impact of index removal
     : After taking effect on December 16, it may lose the passive allocation demand of index funds, and liquidity and valuation will be under short-term pressure [2][6];
  2. Sector linkage risk
     : The overall adjustment of the semiconductor sector may further amplify stock price fluctuations [3][6];
  3. Technology implementation risk
     : Large-scale commercialization of GaN on-board applications still needs time to verify, and the realization of cooperation results is uncertain [4].
• Potential Opportunities
  :
  1. Long-term technical dividends
     : GaN technology has broad application prospects in on-board charging and other fields, and ON Semiconductor’s strategic cooperation is expected to promote the company’s revenue growth [4][5];
  2. Short-term value window
     : If the index removal leads to a short-term decline in stock price, it may provide an entry opportunity for long-term investors [0].

Innoscience (02577.HK) has become a popular Hong Kong stock due to the index removal announcement and GaN technology progress [1][2][4][5]. Although it faces short-term risks of index adjustment and sector fluctuations [2][3][6], its technical breakthroughs and cooperation layout in the GaN field have long-term development potential [4][5]. Investors need to pay attention to the price trend before the index removal takes effect on December 16, the company’s subsequent technical and cooperation progress, and the overall performance of the semiconductor sector [0].
