On July 17, A-shares opened lower with the Shanghai Composite Index down by 0.44% and over 3100 stocks declining. Despite the market drop, the robotics sector emerged as a bright spot, particularly during the ongoing 2026 World Artificial Intelligence Conference (WAIC) in Shanghai, where 60 full-sized humanoid robots are performing public service tasks.
This development is significant as it highlights the growing commercialization of humanoid robots, which are transitioning from mere exhibits to active participants in public service roles. According to Guolian Minsheng Securities, the humanoid robot industry is entering a phase characterized by accelerated large-scale manufacturing, continuous expansion of application scenarios, and upgrades in embodied intelligence.
Looking ahead, the focus will be on whether the robotics sector can maintain its momentum amidst a generally declining market. The WAIC is expected to further stimulate interest in robotics, while NVIDIA's collaboration with major Japanese industrial automation firms to advance physical AI could also influence market dynamics. No further timeline was disclosed at the time of publication.
