Environmental Perspective

The prevalence of greenhouse gas emissions in cities has reinforced the need to strengthen the environmental profile. According to the data cited in the UN specialized agency for ICTs, cities contribute over 70% of carbon emissions globally every year. Digital solutions, such as smart grids, have shown promising signs of reducing emissions and fostering a move towards a clean energy society. Smart grids with predictive analytics and real-time monitoring have gained traction to reduce pressure on aging infrastructure, integrate renewables and lower costs and minimize peak loads.

To illustrate, in December 2022, Siemens won a new contract for grid control and smart metering infrastructure in Egypt. The project, under the aegis of the Japanese International Cooperation Agency (JICA), is valued at EUR 40 million (roughly USD 43 million) and will implement state-of-the-art software to boost the stability, efficiency and reliability of the power grid while minimizing electricity distribution losses. Investments in smart grids could be a significant leap to implementing a sustainable practice across the value chain. 

Social Perspective

While the low-carbon future is paving the way to an environmentally friendly society, social facets, including diversity & inclusion, workplace safety and employee engagement, have become invaluable to leverage social progress. For instance, in ABB, 40.5% of early talent hires were women in 2021, with revised Group-wide guidelines for flexible work practices. Strategies to underpin social performance encompassing gender, age, ethnicity and sexual orientation have become pronounced. It is gearing up to increase the proportion of women in senior management roles by two-fold (as part of its Global Diversity and Inclusion Strategy 2030). 

The Switzerland-headquartered company also rolled out a gender-neutral parental leave program offering four weeks of paid leave for secondary caregivers and 12 weeks for primary caregivers. Besides, it received an employee engagement score of 74 out of 100 in its 2021 employee Engagement Survey. Moreover, over 7,600 ABB managers and other employees completed the “Interrupt Unconscious Bias” program.

Governance Perspective

An exponential rise in smart cities has put the spotlight on the governance pillar, including transparency, ecosystem governance, ethical practices, funding and supply chain management policies. Stakeholders are expected to focus on undergirding governance to help employees make ethical and fair decisions and provide a foundation for effective strategic leadership. For instance, AVEVA has an Audit Committee to monitor and oversee risk management & control; a Nomination and Governance Committee to review ESG, board composition and succession planning; a Disclosure Committee to decide if information should be disclosed to the market; and a Remuneration Committee to review board and senior management remuneration. In addition, the CEO regularly updates the board about the culture of wellbeing, inclusivity, developments concerning diversity, equity and inclusion and opportunity for employees and communities. 

Forward-looking companies strive to achieve carbon neutrality in their operations and foster responsible business practices and social cohesion. In October 2021, The City of London chose Nextech AR Solutions to provide a mini-metaverse experience at Harmony at London Wall Place. The AR-powered interactive artwork and music exhibitions will underscore inclusion as the metaverse will provide easy access to these experiences. It is worth noting that the global smart cities market size touched USD 1,090.64 billion in 2021 and will register a 24.2% CAGR from 2022 to 2030.

Stock recommendations from analysts to capitalize on China's 2025 consumer stimulus plan

China Consumer Stimulus Program Boosts Home Appliance Stocks China's economic policy for 2025 includes an expanded consumer stimulus program that analysts believe will benefit certain stocks in the home appliance industry. While direct cash handouts to consumers have been ruled out, the government has initiated a subsidy program for home appliance purchases, including products like microwaves, water purifiers, dishwashers, and rice cookers. Leading manufacturers such as Midea, Gree, and Haier are expected to see increased sales as a result of these measures. Stock Projections Morningstar equity analyst Jeff Zhang predicts a positive impact on revenue for Midea, Haier, and Gree, with potential stock price increases. Shares of Midea, Haier, and Gree all have upside potential based on price targets from both Morningstar and Citigroup analysts. However, risks such as price wars and real estate market fluctuations could affect stock prices. Consumer Demand and Stimulus Consumer demand in China has been lackluster, with household focus on future income amidst the ongoing pandemic. The consumer stimulus policy aims to support trade-in subsidies for home appliances, with specific product categories eligible for subsidies. E-commerce platforms like JD.com and Alibaba are expected to benefit from the program, particularly given their strong supply chain capabilities. Outlook for E-Commerce Platforms JD.com is highlighted as a top pick for playing the consumer stimulus program, while Alibaba is also seen as a beneficiary due to its strong relationships with major brands. Pinduoduo (PDD) is expected to benefit less compared to JD.com and Alibaba. Analysts have set price targets for JD.com and Alibaba, indicating potential upside from current stock prices. #Money #AlibabaGroupHoldingLtd #analysts #businessnews #capitalize #China #Chinas #CitiTrendsInc #consumer #HaierSmartHomeCoLtd #JD.ComInc #MarketInsider #markets #MideaGroupCoLtd #MorningstarInc #PDDHoldingsInc #Plan #recommendations #stimulus #Stock #Stockmarkets https://tinyurl.com/29sthdby
