Biden declares war on Chinese stocks renewing a Trump order banning trading in 59 Chinese companies alleged to have ties to defense and surveillance sectors.
The move will ban US citizens from knowingly or unwittingly funding companies that may be involved in cyber terrorism etc.
WASHINGTON, June 3 (Reuters) – The Biden administration will issue a new executive order on Thursday that bans U.S. entities from buying or selling publicly traded securities for 59 Chinese companies with alleged ties to defense or surveillance technology sectors, senior administration officials said.
The Treasury Department will enforce and update on a “rolling basis” the new ban list, which replaces one from the Department of Defense, the officials, noting the policy would take effect on Aug. 2.
The new order, which is an effort to make a similar Trump-era prohibition more legally sound, signals the administration’s intent to “ensure that U.S. persons are not financing the military industrial complex of the People’s Republic of China”, one of the senior officials told reporters.

Deal Announced With Shanghai Jinqiao To Launch Apollo EV Prototype Later This Year
Shanghai Jinqiao EV Deal Announced. On March 30, AFMG announced it signed an agreement with Shanghai Jinqiao [SS: 600639 / 900911] to develop and manufacture EV sports cars, luxury vehicles and SUVs with the “Apollo” brand name in the Development Zone in Pudong, Shanghai. AFMG intends to create a JV with a local partner and will set up a R&D center, regional headquarters and production lines in the Development Zone. Jinqiao will provide land for the plant and work with the government to secure capital for the project, similar to the deal Tesla [Nasdaq: TSLA] received. Management believes the location is ideally suited from a supply chain standpoint, with numerous auto-related companies in the Development Zone. We believe this arrangement is likely the result of AFMG’s strong showing at CIIE in November. The prototype vehicle, which will be designed by Ideenion and incorporate solid state batteries, 800V SiC dual inverters and 3D printed parts, will launch later this year, with commercial production expected in 2023. Should AFMG find a solid partner, this deal could create unique a domestic China EV brand that showcases the Company’s technology and design expertise. Additionally, it could completely transform AFMG’s financials and create a substantial increase in the Company’s stock price given the valuations of other EV companies.
Legacy Property Sold. On March 30, AFMG announced it agreed to sell its legacy commercial property in Shenyang to an unrelated buyer for HK$200,000,000, which carried a NAV of HK$199,063,000. Legacy asset divestitures have been expected for some time and this marks another step towards exiting old business lines as generating cash to be put into the mobility business.
EV Power Update. On February 25, the Company announced that EV Power accepted an equity investment from a HK-listed telecom company. The size of the investment and the valuation were not disclosed. The investment drops AFMG’s ownership in EV Power from 38.08% to 32.66%. By way of comparison, EV Power and Blink Charging [Nasdaq: BLNK] each have roughly 23,000 charging units. Blink has a market cap of US$1.80 billion, which when placing equal value to the charging units, would make AFMG’s equity position worth roughly HK$4.6 billion, or slightly more than 860’s entire market cap.
Model Update. Despite the magnitude of the announcements, we made few changes to our model. We will hold off on adding any impact on the Apollo EV announcement until a JV partner is announced and there is a better idea of how that will be structured and funded.

ValuEngine Weekly Report

Medical Miracles: Inside Biotech ETFs
The events of the past twelve months focused a lot of attention on amazing and life-altering developments made possible by the global biotech industry. Although the major names we heard were Pfizer, AstraZeneca, Johnson & Johnson and Moderna, only the last was where the original research and patents that produced the CoVid-19 vaccines were developed. Pfizer partnered with a German company called BioNTech while the other two pharmaceutical giants acquired firms with patents in genetically modified vaccines. Not that coronavirus vaccine research and clinical trials were happening in a vacuum. For example, among the clinical trials leading to FDA approval were two drugs shown to stop the spread of specific types of brain cancer. These original patents and research also originated at small biotech companies.
