Sun Tzu and the European Auto War: China risk moves into European strategy

Riccardo Alberti

This Saturday Brief examines China’s growing role in European autos, the Hang Seng Tech ETF as Stock of the Week, the latest Turbulence Index regime, and the key macro themes to monitor next week.

This issue looks at how China’s role in European autos is moving beyond direct competition and into batteries, platforms, software, supply chains, production scale, and industrial cost.

The Stock of the Week is the Hang Seng Tech ETF, used as a broad exposure to Chinese technology and innovation rather than a single automotive name.

The issue also includes the latest Turbulence Index reading, which is back in the Quiet regime, and highlights the main themes to watch next week: energy, inflation, Fed policy, duration risk, European autos, Chinese EVs, and industrial policy.

Selected research notes on macro regimes, risk dynamics, and portfolio implications across market cycles.
