SHANGHAI, Aug 7 (Reuters) - Hua Hong Semiconductor, China's second-largest chip foundry, posted modest gains in its Shanghai debut on Monday, reflecting a weak market sentiment and investor caution amid mounting Sino-U.S. chip rivalry. Hua Hong shares opened 13% higher on Shanghai's tech-focused STAR Market, but quickly faltered. The Shanghai Composite Index (.SSEC) was down 0.6%, while Hua Hong's Hong Kong-listed shares declined more than 7%. Randall said the money raised by Hua Hong is not huge in a capital-intensive industry, but shows chipmakers are broadening fundraising channels in addition to government backing. Hua Hong will use most of the proceeds to boost capacity at a facility in Wuxi, in eastern Jiangsu province, according to the company's prospectus.

Shares of the chipmaker opened on the Nasdaq-style Star Market at 58.88 Chinese yuan, according to Refinitiv data. That's a 13.2% jump from its offer price of 52 Chinese yuan ($7.23). The Shanghai-listed shares have since pared gains and were trading lower at 53.99 Chinese yuan on Monday afternoon. Hua Hong's Shanghai debut raised 21.2 billion yuan ($2.95 billion) — in what was the largest IPO in mainland China so far this year, according to EY's global IPO report. SMIC raised 46.28 billion yuan ($6.62 billion) during its IPO in 2020.

SHANGHAI, May 18 (Reuters) - Chinese chipmaker Hua Hong Semiconductor Ltd (1347.HK) said it had received Shanghai Stock Exchange approval for its planned $2.6 billion share listing, which is expected to be one of the country's biggest this year. Hong Kong-listed Hua Hong's plan for a secondary listing on Shanghai's STAR Market has been approved by the bourse's listing committee, and it will submit an application for registration to China's securities regulator, the company said late on Wednesday. Hua Hong joins a growing list of Chinese chipmakers to sell shares publicly on the mainland amid a Sino-U.S. rivalry that has seen Washington stepping up efforts to restrict exports to Beijing's semiconductor industry. Hua Hong, which competes with bigger Chinese rival Semiconductor Manufacturing International Corp (0981.HK), has said it plans to raise up to 18 billion yuan ($2.60 billion) to fund investment and innovation.
