A new boom cycle for the global technology sector driven by mobile, smart devices and enhanced connectivity;
Benefitting from huge demand from China; and
Rising competitiveness and market position of the Chinese companies across the global industry chain

with smaller scales and higher valuations.
A)
Trading strategies

Its leadership in the China refrigerator and washing machine
industries; and
Foray into e-commerce with Alibaba
*Approximate representations as of Sept 14, 2014.

Why we like the stock in the sector
Lenovo is a top player in the global PC industry with solid leadership in the China market. It continues to expand its global
market share and enhance profitability. By acquiring the X86 server business of IBM, it is expected to replicate its success
in PC in the server market. In mobile Internet, Lenovo has made steady progress in smartphones and tablets. The
acquisition of Motorola’s mobile business from Google will accelerate its mobile Internet business development.
Strengths:
−
−
Weaknesses:
Leadership in the global PC industry;
Successful M&A track record
Opportunities:
−
−
Needs to strengthen the mobile Internet business;
High reliance on the China market
−
−
Threats:
Likely to replicate its success in the PC market after acquisition of IBM’s X86
server business;
Consolidation and matching of quality resources
Growth outlook of the PC business is threatened by mobile Internet;
Heightened competition
