Currently, there is one “sell” rating, one “hold” rating, and five “buy” ratings for Xiaomi stock. The consensus among Wall Street equities research analysts is that investors should buy Xiaomi shares.
One of the Chinese biggest mobile phone producers Xiaomi Corp (HKG: 1810) has introduced a new line of its long-awaited Mi 11 smartphones: Mi 11 Lite, Mi 11 Lite 5G, Mi 11 Ultra, and Mi 11 Pro. With new models, Xiaomi intends to provide a keen competition to mobile giants Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd., Samsung Electronics, and Apple Inc (NASDAQ: AAPL).
Xiaomi CEO Lei Jun stated:
“Early last year, we started to move into the high range market. I think we have found a foothold in the high-range market.”
Notably, Xiaomi already has a significant advantage over Huawei. The latter is considered to pose a national security threat to the US. Therefore, it was added to the US blacklist known as Entity Lisk back in 2019. As a result, American chip-making companies restricted their sales to Huawei. To sign a deal with the company, they have to obtain a license first.
