Kweichow Moutai rises above 1,500 yuan, hits highest since May with 2% gain

Kweichow Moutai Co., Ltd., a leading producer and marketer of liqueurs, has seen its stock price surge to new heights, reaching 1,587.91 yuan on Thursday, July 2, 2025, marking its highest level since May. The stock gained 2% over the past trading session, driven by a broader market rally in China [1].

The company's stock price has been on a steady upward trajectory, gaining 134% over the past month and surpassing major indexes. This performance comes amidst a broader market rally in China, where the Shanghai Composite Index has gained over 6% over the same period and reached a 10-year high earlier this month [1].

Kweichow Moutai's rise is part of a broader trend in China's AI sector, where domestic investors have been shifting their focus to AI infrastructure names. The company's controlling shareholder has indicated plans to boost its holdings in the company, further fueling the stock's upward momentum [2].

Cambricon Technologies, another AI chip maker, has also seen its stock price surge significantly, gaining 134% over the past month. The company has warned investors about trading risks, noting that the stock price increase has exceeded most of its industry peers’ and major indexes [1].

Despite the recent gains, Kweichow Moutai remains focused on its core business of producing and marketing liqueurs. The company's net sales are primarily generated in China, accounting for 97.5% of its total revenue [2].

As the market continues to rally, investors will be watching Kweichow Moutai's performance closely, particularly as the company's controlling shareholder increases its stake. The company's ability to maintain its momentum and deliver on its financial projections will be crucial in determining its future stock price trajectory.
