In this article, we will take a look at the Top 15 Chinese Companies on US Exchanges.

Hong Kong and Chinese stocks have outpaced their US peers this year so far. The CSI 300 index has gained a mere 0.01% year-to-date as of January 28, while the Hang Seng Index has jumped nearly 5.65%. Hang Seng has exceeded both the S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite, which have surged 1.74% and 2.68%, respectively. In 2025, the Chinese and Hong Kong indexes surged 18% and 28%, respectively, while the S&P 500 index returned 16%.

According to The South China Morning Post, analysts are favoring the Chinese market perform strongly in 2026 on the back of relatively cheaper valuations, a firmer yuan, and policy tailwinds, amid the geopolitical circumstances worldwide.

According to Xu Yang, global partner of Tiger Brokers, the U.S. market is at a very high position in the cycle. Yang added that markets priced at such levels could be prone to negative macro surprises. The firm noted that valuation multiples in Chinese markets had returned toward historical medians. This means Chinese stocks are “not cheap, but not expensive”, according to Tiger.

AI momentum is now considered to be a key for China’s earnings season in March 2026. DeepSeek’s technological breakthrough has opened ways for Chinese tech companies to invest in AI and make it a vital part of their strategy. However, analysts at Bloomberg Intelligence believe that most Chinese firms have yet to generate meaningful revenue from AI investment, pointing out that China’s AI sector will remain in a loss-making zone for the foreseeable future.

On the other side, Yang believes that the Chinese market as a whole has the potential to grow compared to the U.S. market. For the next five to seven years, average annual returns for the U.S. equities would drop to around 3% to 5%, according to Tiger.

For the Hang Seng Index, Tiger estimates a level of 30,000 points by the end of 2026, which reflects an upside of 8% from current levels, while the Shanghai Composite Index is expected to gain 21%, ending the year at 5,000 points.
