MARKETSSTART 2024 LOWER AFTER MIXED DATA

2024年股市开局走低，数据好坏参半

The markets came back to trade for 2024with a couple of conflicting sets of data to digest【消化】. The first was the official manufacturing sector PMI, which wasreleased at the weekend, and Caixin's private survey of the sector which cameout this morning. Both focus on different portions of the industry - theofficial figures look at larger state-owned firms and the Caixin PMI coversmedium and smaller sized private firms. The official PMI showed the sectorshrinking at a faster pace in December, while the Caixin numbers pointed tomore orders and a faster expansion for the private sector. But with businessconfidence still lacking the markets fell today. The Shanghai Composite Indexshed 0.4 percent while the Shenzhen Component was 1.3 percent lower.

2024年股市恢复交易，要消化几组相互矛盾的数据。首先是周末公布的官方制造业采购经理人指数（PMI），以及今天上午公布的财新中国制造业PMI。二者关注的都是该行业的不同部分--官方数据关注的是大型国有企业，而财新的PMI则涵盖了中小型私营企业。官方PMI指数显示，中国制造业12月份萎缩速度加快，而财新的数据则显示，私营企业的订单增加，扩张速度加快。由于商业信心仍然不足，今天股市下跌。上证综指下跌0.4%，深证成指下跌 1.3%。

There were losses for tech, consumer, real estate,healthcare and financial stocks.

科技股、消费股、房地产股、医疗保健股和金融股均下跌。

Automaker BYD also declined despite thelatest sales numbers that show it likely to overtake Tesla as the world'sbiggest seller of pure electric vehicles. BYD posted a 62 percent jump in 2023sales -- with a record 526 thousand pure EVs sold in the fourth quarter of theyear alone. If Tesla wants to keep the crown【王冠】, it's going toneed similarly strong sales in the fourth quarter... well ahead of whatanalysts are expecting.

汽车制造商比亚迪的股票同样下跌，尽管最新的销售数据显示它有可能超过特斯拉成为全球最大的纯电动汽车销售商。比亚迪2023年的销量猛增了62%--仅今年第四季度就售出了创纪录的52.6万辆纯电动汽车。如果特斯拉想保住桂冠，它需要在第四季度获得同样强劲的销量......远超分析师的预期。

For the Hong Kong markets, it's a new year,but not much has changed. The Hang Seng was off 1.5 percent today.

对于港股而言，新的一年到来了，但变化并不大。恒生指数今天下跌了1.5%。

Real estate stocks continue to be a serious drag【拖累】as sentiment remains weak. An index trackingmainland developers listed in Hong Kong was down more than 4.5 percent. LongforGroup was one of the biggest decliners, shedding 7 percent.

由于市场情绪依然疲软，房地产股继续严重拖累股市。追踪在香港上市的内地开发商的指数下跌超过 4.5%。龙湖集团跌幅最大，下跌了7%。

Japanese markets are closed today andtomorrow for a market holiday. But other Asian markets were doing ok today.Australia's ASX 200 advanced half of one percent and South Korea's KOSPI 200was up 0.7 percent.

日本股市今明两天因假期休市。其他亚洲市场今天表现尚可。澳大利亚ASX 200 指数上涨了半个百分点，韩国KOSPI 200 指数上涨了0.7%。
