175 listed companies, 1.8 trillion market capitalization: which is the strongest prefecture-level city with A shares?

  In 2021, which prefecture-level city has the most listed companies?

  First-tier cities such as Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen have the most developed economies and have better talent, technology, and financial resources. In most investors' minds, blue-chip white horse stocks with large market capitalization and emerging track growth stocks are concentrated in these regions.

  actually not.

Statistics from my country Business News reporters show that in the process of China's high-quality economic development, promoted by local governments' investment-related policies and measures, the concentration and market value of listed companies in prefecture-level cities are no less than that of first-tier cities.

  The reporter removed the statistics from Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Tianjin, and provincial capitals. As of December 30, Suzhou is the prefecture-level city with the most listed companies in the country. There are 175 listed companies in the city, with a total market value of 1.83 trillion yuan. .

At the same time, Suzhou is also the "hardest technology" prefecture-level city, with 38 sci-tech innovation board companies, second only to Shanghai and Beijing.

Good and many, Suzhou listed companies lead the nationwide prefecture-level cities

  In terms of the number of listed companies in prefecture-level cities, Suzhou has formed an absolute advantage, ranking first with 175; Ningbo and Wuxi ranked second and third with 107 and 103, respectively; Shaoxing ranked with 73 listed companies. Ranked fourth, less than half of Suzhou.

  Suzhou's top five total market capitalization Oriental Shenghong (000301.SZ), Cobos (603486.SH), Maiwei shares (300751.SZ), Siripu (688536.SH), Tianhua Super Clean (300390.SH) SZ)’s share price performance has significantly outperformed the major stock indexes, with 103.8%, 74.38%, 69.22%, 80.41%, and 227.35% respectively.

  It is worth mentioning that there are 18 listed companies in the Suzhou area that have doubled their share prices in 2021. Among them, Yaben Chemical (300261.SZ), Tianhua Ultra-Clean, Chinasoft Technology (002453.SZ), and Lin Weina ( 688661.SH) 4 stocks have an annual increase of more than 200%.

  Not only is there a large number of listed companies, but the high-quality science and technology investment and financing environment created by the Suzhou government has made the city's science and technology board companies ranked first in the country.

  According to a research report by the Science and Technology Innovation Data Research Center (SMDC), as of the end of November, the total market value of Jiangsu Science and Technology Innovation Board exceeded one trillion for the first time, and the number of listed companies on the Science and Technology Innovation Board reached 70.

  Among them, the number of sci-tech innovation board companies in Suzhou reached 38 (no new additions in December), second only to Shanghai (59) and Beijing (51) nationwide, becoming the "hardest technology" prefecture-level city.

As of December 30, the total market value of Suzhou Science and Technology Innovation Board Company reached 445.05 billion yuan.

  In addition, there are 61 listed companies in Xiamen and Taizhou.

In Taizhou, home appliance company Supor (002032.SZ) is the most valuable listed company in Taizhou, with a total market value of 50.3 billion yuan; Kyushu Pharmaceuticals (603456.SZ) and Yongtai Technology (002326.SZ) rank second and third respectively. Reach 48.1 billion and 43.3 billion.

  There are also more than 50 listed companies in Changzhou and Jiaxing. The four prefecture-level cities, Dongguan, Foshan, Nantong, and Yantai, all have 45.

Why is Suzhou?

  my country’s "14th Five-Year Plan" released this year clearly mentions that we must adhere to the core position of innovation in the overall modernization of our country, take scientific and technological self-reliance as a strategic support for national development, face the frontiers of world science and technology, face the main economic battlefield, and face the country. Major needs, facing the lives and health of the people, in-depth implementation of the strategy of rejuvenating the country through science and education, the strategy of strengthening the country with talents, and the strategy of innovation-driven development, perfecting the national innovation system, and accelerating the building of a science and technology power.

  Technological innovation is the key to future development work.

Under the design of the local government's top-level system, policies, talents, finance and other factors have jointly promoted the rapid development of Suzhou and cultivated enterprises that have been in the capital market for many years.

  Judging from the industry distribution of Suzhou A-share companies, in addition to a few established giants, emerging competitive industries have become the driving force behind the continued growth of Suzhou listed companies, mostly focusing on electronic information (5G, optoelectronic displays, integrated circuits), photovoltaics, and biotechnology. Medicine etc.

  The relevant listed companies involved include, Seripu (688536.SH), Jingfang Technology (603005.SH), Helin Weina (688661.SH), Ruikea (688800.SH), Longteng Optoelectronics (688055.SH) , Borui Pharmaceutical (688166.SH), Zejing Pharmaceutical-U (688266.SH).

  A secretary to the board of directors of a company listed on the Suzhou Science and Technology Innovation Board told a reporter from China Business News, “The policies and measures of the local government in Suzhou are very forward-looking. Develop and give full play to the positive role of industrial carriers in industrial transformation, technological innovation, and intensive use of resources."

  At the same time, in recent years, Suzhou Industrial Park has focused on the industrial chain and innovation chain. There are 50 listed companies in the park, including more than 30 A-share companies.

  According to the official website of the Suzhou Industrial Park Management Committee, the park concentrates its efforts on the development of three emerging industries: biomedicine, nanotechnology applications, and artificial intelligence.

A "2+3+1" characteristic industry system has been formed.

2 pillar industries of 100 billion yuan: a new generation of information technology, high-end equipment manufacturing; 3 characteristic emerging industries: biomedicine, nanotechnology applications, artificial intelligence; 1 modern service industry; four characteristic industrial clusters of 100 billion yuan: a new generation of information Technology, high-end equipment manufacturing, biomedicine, nanotechnology applications.

  A number of technological innovation companies with a market capitalization of over 10 billion, such as Seripu, Jingfang Technology, Nanda Optoelectronics, Nanomicro Technology, Tianhua Ultra-Clean, and Huaxing Yuanchuang, are all from the Suzhou Industrial Park.
