      Zhipu surges 33% as Wall Street raises bets on China AI after Anthropic curbs

      >Shares of Chinese AI model developer Zhipu surged on Monday as Wall Street banks raised bets on the company’s ability to capture global AI demand, while Washington tightens curbs on foreign access to its most powerful models.

      >Bank of America analysts on Monday initiated coverage with “buy” ratings on the pair, setting targets of 1,250 Hong Kong dollars for Zhipu and 500 Hong Kong dollars for MiniMax.

      >The assessment came after the Trump administration on Friday ordered Anthropic to suspend access to its most advanced AI models, Fable 5 and Mythos 5, for any foreign national, including Anthropic’s own non-citizen employees, over national security concerns.

      >While U.S. developers face mounting pressure to restrict frontier access, Chinese players have leaned into open distribution

      >around 40% of U.S.-based AI engineers were born in China, and that the latest directive effectively bars many of those individuals from accessing the systems they helped build.

      >“The very individuals who were responsible, perhaps not in whole but crucial, for creating the most powerful AI models in the world are now persona non grata,” Alexander said in a note Monday, warning of potential brain drain toward Zhipu, and to Chinese AI companies DeepSeek and Moonshot AI.
