The analyst rating reflects concerns about a significant slowdown in sales growth among major Chinese automakers, attributed to the phasing out of subsidies for large-scale equipment upgrades and consumer goods trade-ins. This has led to a weaker year-end sales surge compared to previous years, with many companies struggling to meet their sales targets. The report indicates that the decline in sales growth appears almost irreversible, suggesting a challenging environment for automakers as they attempt to balance sales growth with earnings amidst regulatory pressures and reduced consumer demand.
