China's 15th Five-Year Plan has been approved, with the top three core objectives being building a modern economic system, accelerating technological self-reliance, and establishing a strong domestic market, consistent with the top three goals of the 14th Five-Year Plan, according to a Citi research report.

Likely due to increased overseas tariff barriers, it is worth noting that the goal of advancing high-level opening-up has made a big jump from 9th to 5th place.

Overall, Citi considers the 15th Five-Year Plan within expectations, as it focuses on the five major directions the broker previously proposed, namely economic development, technological innovation, social welfare, green development, and reform and opening-up. The key sectors expected to benefit are technology, tourism, healthcare, insurance, and renewable energy.

Citi holds a positive view on the Hong Kong and Chinese markets. Its top H-share buy recommendations are HENGRUI PHARMA (01276.HK), SUNNY OPTICAL (02382.HK), ASMPT (00522.HK), TENCENT (00700.HK), AIA (01299.HK), TRIP.COM-S (09961.HK), and Atour Lifestyle (ATAT.US).
