What happened
Next week, a total of 48 A-share stocks will have their restricted shares released for trading. Based on the latest closing prices, the combined market value of these expiring lock-ups is 84.235 billion yuan.
Zhongjuxin-U is the largest, with 888 million shares worth 19.313 billion yuan entering circulation, mainly original shareholders' restricted shares. Moore Threads-U follows with 26 million shares valued at 13.386 billion yuan, primarily IPO institutional placement shares. Zhuzhou Smelter Group, Guosen Securities and Weiergao also have sizeable unlock values.
In contrast, seven stocks, including Juchen, Tongyi Aerospace, Wuxin Intelligent and Jiete Biotech, face relatively mild pressure, each with an unlock value below 10 million yuan.
Why it matters
Lock-up expiries increase the number of tradeable shares, which can add selling pressure to individual stocks, especially those where the unlock ratio exceeds 50% of share capital.
The heavy concentration in a few names — particularly Zhongjuxin-U and Moore Threads-U — may draw market attention, as large unlocks can affect liquidity and investor sentiment.
