I maintain a Hold rating for ZTO Express, following an evaluation of its outlook for the short term and long run. ZTOEF's ambitious volume growth target will likely be a drag on its '25 margins. In the mid-to-long term, the company might witness share gains and higher prices if insurance coverage for couriers becomes a requirement in China.
