China's STAR 50 hands back roughly 70% of its three-month rally

China's STAR 50 has fallen about 30% since end-June, handing back roughly 70% of a nearly 75% three-month rally. Chip indices in Korea, Taiwan and the US fell with it, but the record fits cheaper open-source models and an unwinding rally as well as doubt about AI spending.

Unitree's 'Superman' clip is a prospectus: 6.1bn yuan raised before a STAR Market debut

The sprint number came from a company video of a three-month-old prototype. The listing is the durable fact: the first general-purpose robotics company on mainland China's market.

Unitree's debut prices 5,500 robots at $66 billion, or 262 times revenue

Unitree's 53% drawdown stops at 3.4 times its IPO price

The 460% pop on debut day has been undone almost exactly, leaving the market paying about 125 times Unitree's 2025 revenue and more than 350 times its adjusted earnings, a valuation that prices Unitree's growth story, with earnings barely factoring in.
