Approximately 350 billion yuan "cash red envelopes" distributed collectively, Shanghai-listed companies' dividend payouts heat up before the Spring Festival

Recently, Shanghai-listed companies have been distributing “cash red envelopes” in a concentrated manner, sparking a dividend distribution boom before the Spring Festival. According to reporters, this is also an active response by Shanghai-listed companies to the call for “dividends before the Spring Festival,” demonstrating their commitment to stable and regular cash dividends through practical actions. Data shows that in the last 6 trading days before the 2026 Spring Festival holiday, nearly 20 companies including Industrial Bank, CITIC Securities, and China Yangtze Power will distribute a total of about 25.8 billion yuan in “cash red envelopes.” Looking at the longer timeline, from December 2025 to before the 2026 Spring Festival, the total dividends issued by Shanghai-listed companies are expected to exceed 347.6 billion yuan, potentially reaching the 350 billion yuan mark, surpassing the 300 billion yuan of the same period last year. As of February 5, the total cash dividends distributed have reached 321.8 billion yuan. (Shanghai Securities News)
