[BYD's third-quarter net profit plunged 88.58% from a year earlier] on the evening of Oct. 29, BYD released its third-quarter results. In the third quarter, BYD realized revenue of 31.638 billion yuan, down 9.17% from the same period last year; realized net profit of 120 million yuan, down 88.58% from the same period last year; and deducted non-net profit of 153 million yuan, down 130.12% from the same period last year. BYD said in its report that due to the impact of the macroeconomic situation, it is expected that the overall market demand of the automobile industry will remain weak in the fourth quarter, the impact of changes in the price system of superimposed fuel vehicles and the sharp decline in subsidies for new energy vehicles. New energy vehicle industry sales are below expectations, and the group's new energy vehicle business profits are also expected to decline to a certain extent compared with the same period last year.

It is reported that the Chengdu District Court recently rejected Geely's lawsuit against Weimar employees for infringement of trade secrets. This stage of progress means that the innovation of new car-building forces has been recognized to a certain extent.

[BAIC Blue Valley's total revenue rose 78.64 percent in the first three quarters from a year earlier] the company reported revenue of 17.484 billion in the first three quarters of 2019, an increase of 78.64 percent over the same period last year, according to BAIC Blue Valley's results for the third quarter of 2019. Of this total, revenue in the third quarter was 7.564 billion, an increase of 81.26 percent over the same period last year. BAIC Blue Valley said that the company achieved steady revenue growth in the third quarter, thanks in part to the steady growth in new energy sales of its subsidiary BAIC. On the other hand, it is due to the revenue growth caused by the adjustment of product structure. In terms of product structure adjustment, the main products of BAIC New Energy have been adjusted from EC series to high-end pure electric model EU series. At present, BAIC new energy A0 or above models account for 80%, the average price of more than 120000.

[SMM Titanium Weekly Review: Titanium Dioxide Showed Signs of Recovery; Diverging Strength Across the Titanium Industry Chain Market This Week] This week, the titanium industry chain in China showed pronounced structural divergence, with the tug-of-war between sellers and buyers across upstream and downstream segments intensifying and cost pass-through facing obstacles. Overall, the sector was characterized by a combination of weak recovery and localized strong support. Trading in upstream titanium ore and titanium slag was sluggish. Downstream processing enterprises tightly controlled costs, with procurement consistently maintained at a pace driven by rigid demand. Coupled with inventory at high levels across the industry, the raw material end remained under pressure, enterprises’ willingness to operate stayed weak, capacity release was constrained, and the supply-demand imbalance continued to stand out. In the midstream titanium dioxide segment, pressure from elevated costs of raw materials and energy sharply increased production-side strain. Enterprises held prices firm and showed a strong willingness to sell, and while domestic trade demand did not see a noticeable increase in volume—relying only on rigid-demand support—overseas markets still demonstrated a certain degree of resilience, leaving the overall market running relatively strong. The downstream sponge titanium and titanium products segments performed impressively: sponge titanium inventories remained low, and, together with robust downstream restocking demand, top-tier enterprises proactively adjusted prices, with enterprises showing strong confidence in holding prices firm. The titanium products market saw stable supply and demand: the supply-side operating rate was steady, while demand-side differentiation was evident. Civilian applications were mainly driven by rigid-demand restocking, while orders in high-end fields such as aerospace and military industries were steady. The market recovered steadily, and differences in the pace across segments of the industry chain also set the tone for subsequent market dynamics.
