Why is SMIC benefiting from Huawei's technology news?
As China's largest contract chipmaker, SMIC stands to gain from increased orders if Huawei's new products require more locally made semiconductors, reducing reliance on foreign suppliers.
How sustainable is the rally in SMIC shares?
The sustainability depends on actual order flow materializing from Huawei and other Chinese tech firms; short-term optimism could fade if concrete deals are not announced.
