In 2026, if you could hold only one stock for an entire year, which one would you choose—and why?

I’d guess Tianci Materials—and later increase the position significantly. Main business: Lithium-ion battery materials (89.7% of H1 2025 revenue), daily chemical materials, and specialty chemicals. Industry position: World’s largest electrolyte supplier by market share (projected 2025 shipment: 720,000 tons; 32.2% global share); world’s largest lithium hexafluorophosphate (LiPF₆) producer (2024 shipment: 64,000 tons; 37.6% global share). Dominant leadership: #1 globally in both electrolytes and LiPF₆, with significant integrated cost advantages. High earnings leverage: Industry cycle turning upward—substantial YoY net profit growth expected in 2025, with explosive profitability in Q4. Strong growth prospects: Supported by energy storage expansion, overseas capacity ramp-up, and new material development—underpinning long-term growth.

Don’t regret it later! Today I spent five hours compiling a list of 10 poised-to-ignite 'legendary stocks'—any one could launch at any moment after National Day!
