[JPMorgan: Overall Auto Market Recovery Remains Weak, BYD's Full-Year Sales Still Expected to Grow Against the Trend] JPMorgan stated that despite cooling demand in the overall EV market, BYD is expected to achieve positive sales growth for the full year, benefiting from improved expectations in the Chinese market and aggressive global expansion. In a research report released after post-holiday communication and survey with BYD's management, the investment bank's analysts noted that BYD expects domestic sales to reach 3.5 million to 4 million units this year. This performance guidance implies that its China domestic market growth could reach up to 13%, far exceeding market analysts' previous widespread expectations of flat sales or even a slight decline.
