The latest Q3 2026 China EPMI R&D Activity Index reported 59.6, a sharp increase of 4.7 percentage points from the previous 54.9, indicating a significant rise in investment enthusiasm in emerging industries. Fueled by the "15th Five-Year Plan" policy that defines six major emerging pillar industries, R&D momentum in fields such as integrated circuits and new materials is strong. Looking ahead, although the short term faces the test of the high-temperature off-season, the medium- to long-term expansion trend supported by policies remains clear.
