Musk Predicts 100 Billion Humanoid Robots in 15 Years; A-Share Concept Stocks Surge
Elon Musk, in a September 23 interview with China's CCTV Finance, forecast that humanoid robot adoption could reach at least 1 billion units within 10 years, 10 billion within 15 years, and 100 billion within 20 years, envisioning personal robots for elder care, childcare, and tutoring. The following day, September 24, A-share humanoid robot concept stocks rallied sharply, with Xiangyang Bearing and Joyson Electronics hitting daily limit-up, while other stocks like Ningbo Dongli and Tonghui Electronics rose over 5%. The article notes that these stock movements are largely sentiment-driven, as the listed companies' core businesses are not yet directly tied to humanoid robot production. It contrasts this with the venture capital perspective, where Musk's vision helps justify high valuations for startups with technical barriers. The analysis cautions that while the long-term vision is inspiring, investment decisions should be based on actual orders and earnings, not short-term market emotion. The article also mentions the leaked Optimus V3 design, which covers all joints, as a potential signal for mass production.

Investors celebrated the gains as a 'Mid-Autumn Festival gift.' Zhongma Transmission (603767) also hit the limit up, while other stocks like Changsheng Bearing, Mould Technology, and Sanhua Intelligent Controls followed. The rally was driven by Elon Musk's forecast in a CCTV interview on September 23 that there will be at least 1 billion humanoid robots within 10 years, potentially reaching 100 billion in 15 years and 1,000 billion in 20 years. Additionally, Tesla's team arrived in Ningbo on September 16 for a production audit of its Optimus robot, having placed orders with supply chain companies. Overseas, Figure AI released its Helix 2.5 neural network model in mid-September, enabling zero-shot autonomous operation in unfamiliar environments. Analysts from Dongfang Securities, Wanlian Securities, and Guoyuan Securities view 2026 as a key year for mass production and commercialization of embodied intelligence, recommending focus on companies with batch manufacturing and supply chain capabilities.
