Currently, A-shares are in a valuation lowland, with a high cost-performance ratio.
Major overseas economies may start an interest rate reduction cycle in the second half of the year, which will attract foreign capital to flow into the A-share market at an accelerated pace.
With the expectation of economic recovery, A-shares are expected to enter a medium to long-term bull market.
In terms of investment opportunities, sectors such as environmental protection equipment, consumer goods, pharmaceuticals, and semiconductors can be closely tracked.
Chen Guo from CITIC Construction Investment: The world has entered a "turbulent period," affecting the risk preference of the A-share market.
However, a comprehensive assessment shows that the U.S. economy is still far from a recession, and the reversal of the yen carry trade has a limited direct impact on A-shares.
Domestic demand data is still weak, and for most funds, it is necessary to confirm that the expansion of domestic demand policies has been significantly implemented and the economy has stabilized.
Investors need to be patient, waiting for the opportunity to attack, first guarding the "winning assets" mainly in stable dividend industries, and then gradually laying out the direction and growth industries benefiting from the expansion of domestic demand policies at a low point.
Key attention: electricity, telecom operators, state-owned banks, highways, military industry, pharmaceuticals, etc.
Zhejiang Securities: A-shares have entered the bottoming period of the medium line, but the formation of the bottom will not be achieved overnight and may last for a period of time; before the real medium line trend starts, the market is likely to show a range of fluctuations with "support at the bottom and pressure at the top."
In terms of allocation, considering that the main broad-based index has very limited downside space, there is no need to worry about the medium line position, and it can still maintain the current position, and increase the allocation when the index challenges the lower edge of the range; but for short line positions, it is recommended to operate from the perspective of range fluctuations, quickly enter and exit to make the difference.
Considering that a considerable number of individual stocks have been fully adjusted, after entering the bottoming period, stocks can be selected based on the compound conditions of "full decline in the previous period + recent stable trend + improvement in fundamentals," and appropriately "light index, heavy individual stocks."
