HKEx: HSBC repurchased 527,200 shares for HK$ 39.4 million on December 12.Bank of Communications International: For the first time, it covers the "buy" rating and target price of HK$ 5.86 given by the rich industrial trust. The Bank of Communications International published a report that the rich industrial trust has multiple investment advantages and stock price drivers, including stable profit prospects, low valuation, further interest rate cuts and potential inclusion in Shanghai-Shenzhen-Hong Kong Stock Connect, which are all beneficial to the valuation of REITs. For the first time, the bank covers the purchase of wealth and gives a "buy" rating with a target price of HK$ 5.86. Bank of Communications International believes that the rental income prospect of Zhifu Industrial Trust can remain basically stable. At the same time, the current share price corresponds to a dividend of 9.4% in 2025, and the gap between the dividend yield and the yield of 10-year US bonds is about 1.1 standard deviation lower than the long-term level. It is considered that the current valuation is still far below its long-term average level, and has reflected most of the worries of the retail market in Hong Kong. The report continued that although high interest rates will still have a negative impact on this year's earnings, it is expected that the dividend per unit of Zhifu will resume growth from next year under the condition of continuous interest rate reduction. It is expected that the dividend per unit will decrease by 10%, increase by 3.8% and increase by 4.1% from 2024 to 2026 to 36.34, 37.71 and 39.26 Hong Kong cents respectively.Director of the International Energy Agency (IEA): Geothermal energy is suitable for providing a large amount of stable energy for data centers. The IEA said on Friday that shale drilling technology, which has led to a sharp increase in oil and gas production, has also stimulated the development of geothermal energy. In theory, geothermal energy can provide a stable power source equivalent to the total demand of India and the United States. Fatih Birol, director of the International Energy Agency, said after the agency released its first report on geothermal energy that geothermal energy is suitable for providing a large amount of stable energy for data centers. Birol said: "One of the demands for geothermal energy is the demand for electricity in data centers. The demand for data centers in the United States is great, and they need all-weather electricity, which makes geothermal very suitable. " Birol said that unlike renewable energy such as wind energy and solar energy, geothermal energy can be a sustainable energy source, but it is still in its infancy and needs a lot of investment and support from the government. The incoming Trump administration said it would promote more oil and gas drilling and hoped to reduce the green energy plan, but Birol saw no reason not to increase the use of geothermal energy. According to the data of the International Energy Agency, by 2050, the global geothermal heating may increase to 800 GW, accounting for 15% of the global demand growth, and the annual output is equivalent to the current total demand of the United States and India. According to the report of the International Energy Agency, global investment will exceed $1 trillion by 2035 and $2.8 trillion by 2050, of which about 75% will be invested in power generation facilities.
