Haitong Securities believes that the future penetration rate of AI PC is promising, and 2024 may become the first year of AI PC. The development of AI promotes the vigorous rise of products such as AI PC, AI servers, and AI phones in the market. In the overall AI era, attention should be paid to the domestic AI PC supply chain. Jianghai Securities' Zhou Biao research report pointed out that according to Counterpoint, global PC shipments in the second quarter of 2024 increased by 3.1% year-on-year, achieving two consecutive quarters of year-on-year growth. With the gradual launch of AIPC and the increase in market share of Windows on ARM PC, it is expected that the PC industry will usher in a wave of machine replacement peaks. It is recommended to pay attention to the whole machine manufacturer Raytheon Technology, as well as related industry chain companies Chunqiu Electronics, Huaqin Technology, Everbright Tongchuang, and Yingli Shares.
