JinkoSolar (ADR)

The board of JinkoSolar has proposed rebranding the company as Jinko Holdings; the change requires shareholder approval at the annual general meeting on 21 October 2026 and regulatory clearances.

Going forward, the company intends to operate two segments — industrial holdings (including a majority stake in Jinko Solar Co., Ltd.) and strategic minority investments in areas such as AI, renewable energy, advanced materials and space; disclosed investments include Moonshot AI and StepFun, and the company reported fair-value gains and proceeds from disposals in the first half of 2026. » More on de.investing.com
