Xiaomi Buyback and Beijing IoT Paper Fail to Shield Stock From Rate Squeeze
Published on 11/11/2026 at 20:41 | Editorial boerse-global.de
Xiaomi spent roughly HK$49.9 million buying back 1.66 million Class B ordinary shares, the company disclosed, with the repurchased stock earmarked for cancellation. The shares changed hands at between HK$29.96 and HK$30.12 apiece.
The buyback landed on a rough day for Hong Kong's technology complex. Xiaomi's stock shed 2.1% to €3.40 as global yields climbed and expectations of further rate hikes hardened. The Economic Times groups the company with Hong Kong tech names squeezed by hotter US inflation, and the Hang Seng Tech Index itself gave up 1.4% over the session.
India Manufacturing Under Review
Away from the trading floor, Xiaomi is sounding out local partners to make household appliances in India. The Economic Times reports the review is still at an early stage, with potential suppliers only now being evaluated.
Open IoT Paper With Peking University
The company also published an industry-open whitepaper on IoT device models together with Peking University yesterday. Xiaomi says it is contributing technical experience drawn from more than 1.16 billion AIoT devices for the wider sector. The partners presented the paper at the CCF China Software Conference, focusing on the device model underpinning the Internet of Things — the networking of connected devices.
Should investors sell immediately? Or is it worth buying Xiaomi?
Robotics work has advanced in parallel. On 3 November Xiaomi reported that a humanoid robot had, for the first time, staffed a sorting station at one of its own car plants for eight continuous hours. A trial of household chores in Xiaomi youth apartments also got under way.
All Four Models on Premium Sales Board
In the auto business, founder and CEO Lei Jun said yesterday that all four Xiaomi models appeared in China's October sales ranking for vehicles priced above 200,000 yuan. Reuters puts deliveries of electric vehicles at about 336,000 units from January through October, with the company targeting 550,000 shipments for 2026.
Analysts are less upbeat on the near term. UOB Kay Hian forecast on 2 November a 6.7% year-on-year decline in third-quarter 2026 revenue to RMB 106 billion, with weaker IoT and EV sales expected to outweigh a stronger smartphone quarter.

Board to Sign Off on Q3
The board is due to review and approve unaudited consolidated results on 24 November 2026, covering both the third quarter of 2026 and the nine months to 30 September 2026 — a single sitting that clears the standalone quarter and the cumulative nine-month figures together. The date matches the HKEX calendar entry for the Q3 2026 release.
