Shanghai, Feb 2, 2026, 09:43 (GMT+8) — Regular session underway.
- Suzhou Maxwell’s A-shares gained 3.4% following a volatile start to trading.
- HJT (heterojunction) solar-related stocks outpaced the market, even as mainland benchmarks showed a mixed performance.
- Traders are focused on the annual report due April 28 and the active window for shareholder sell plans.
Suzhou Maxwell Technologies Co., Ltd. A-shares (300751.SZ) climbed 3.4% to 321.07 yuan by 9:38 a.m. in Shenzhen, fluctuating earlier between 316.80 and 329.78 yuan. Trading volume hit roughly 1.01 billion yuan.
The early bounce stands out as the broader market dipped, but buyers kept returning to high-efficiency solar themes. Such flows can swiftly shift equipment stocks, and Maxwell ranks among them.
On the mainland, “HIT battery” often stands in for HJT — heterojunction solar cells — a newer design known for higher conversion efficiency and a distinct equipment lineup. Investors are now gauging if the trade can hold up as the week begins.
At 9:46 a.m., the Shanghai Composite had slipped 0.6%, and the Shenzhen Component dropped 0.46%. The ChiNext index, however, edged up 0.26%.
A watchlist of HIT-battery stocks saw broad buying right at the open. Risen Energy jumped 7.7%, while Shuangliang Eco-Energy Systems climbed 7.4% in early trade, boosting Maxwell along with the group.
Fresh comments from the supply chain added momentum. Wuxi Lead Intelligent Equipment revealed its 0BB string-welding machine — which uses a “zero busbar” method to reduce metal in new cell designs — is now in scale production and has been shipped in bulk to key clients. Stock Star
Suzhou Maxwell specializes in intelligent manufacturing equipment, offering vacuum coating tools like PECVD and PVD systems for HJT solar-cell production. The company also supplies key machinery for the display and semiconductor sectors. Its shares are listed on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange.
The sector has also capitalized on a “space photovoltaic” narrative in the local media, connecting commercial launches and energy-intensive computing with high-efficiency solar cells. Lin Boqiang from Xiamen University told Cailianpress, “China’s photovoltaic manufacturing capacity leads the world, and moving into space is a natural extension.” Sina Finance
But the situation can shift quickly. A filing on Jan. 26 revealed the company uncovered no hidden major info behind recent price swings and cautioned investors against chasing market “hotspots.” It also announced that controlling shareholders Zhou Jian and Wang Zhenggen plan to sell as much as 1.94% of the company between Jan. 29 and April 28.

April 28 marks a key date for traders, as the company plans to release its 2025 annual report then. Investors will dig into it for signs of order momentum in solar and semiconductor equipment, as well as any insights on shareholder sales expected around the same time.
