Core Viewpoint - The article discusses the characteristics of value strategy indices in the A-share market, highlighting the differences between various indices such as 300 Value, Preferred 300, and China Securities Value, while also addressing the current investment value of these strategies [1][11]. Group 1: Value Strategy Indices - Value strategy indices focus on investing in a basket of low price-to-earnings (P/E) and low price-to-book (P/B) ratio stocks [5][53]. - There are four main types of indices in the A-share market: broad-based indices, strategy indices, industry indices, and thematic indices [6][7][8][9]. - The six mainstream strategies within the strategy indices include quality strategy, leader strategy, dividend strategy, value strategy, low volatility strategy, and growth strategy [10][15]. Group 2: Specific Value Indices - The 300 Value Index, launched on December 31, 2004, selects 100 stocks from the CSI 300 based on low P/E, low P/B, low price-to-cash flow, and high dividend yield [12][19]. - The Preferred 300 Index, established on December 31, 2008, not only selects undervalued stocks but also considers the company's profitability and growth potential [12][24]. - The China Securities Value Index, introduced on June 29, 2007, is unique as it uses equal weighting, meaning each stock has the same proportion, and it focuses on mid and small-cap stocks [13][25]. Group 3: Performance and Historical Data - From August 19, 2011, to May 19, 2025, the 300 Value Index achieved a return of 8.59%, the Preferred 300 Index 9.98%, and the China Securities Value Index 8.45%, all outperforming the CSI 300 Index, which had a return of only 4.61% during the same period [32]. - The historical valuation data shows that the P/E ratios of these indices are generally higher than their P/B ratios, indicating that some companies may have declining earnings, which can lead to inflated P/E ratios [35][36].

Core Viewpoint - The article discusses the current market conditions, emphasizing the importance of understanding index valuation percentiles and the associated risks when making investment decisions. Market Overview - The major indices, such as the Shanghai and Shenzhen 300, have shown little fluctuation, while small-cap stocks have slightly declined [2][4]. - Value and dividend styles have seen minor increases, whereas growth styles have experienced slight declines [3][4]. - After a significant drop in early April, global markets have rebounded over the following weeks, but have recently entered a period of sideways movement [5][6]. Index Valuation Percentiles - The article highlights that percentile rankings can be a useful reference for current valuations in historical contexts [7][8]. - A 30% percentile indicates that 30% of historical valuations were lower than the current one [9]. Risks Associated with Percentile Valuation 1. **Short Historical Data**: Relying on a short time frame for index data can lead to misleading conclusions. Historical data should ideally encompass multiple market cycles [12][13]. - Solution: Use longer historical indices of similar styles for reference [14][15][16]. 2. **Changes in Index Rules**: Modifications in index selection criteria can alter valuation metrics, making historical comparisons less relevant [18][19][20]. - Solution: Recalculate historical valuations based on new rules [21]. 3. **Different Valuation Weighting Methods**: Variations in how indices calculate valuations can lead to discrepancies in percentiles. For example, the dividend index's valuation can differ significantly based on whether it is market-cap weighted or dividend-yield weighted [22][23][24][28]. - Solution: Calculate valuations based on the actual stocks held in the index [29]. 4. **Economic Downturns**: During economic slowdowns, declining earnings can artificially inflate price-to-earnings ratios, skewing percentile rankings [5][30]. - Solution: Use stable financial metrics for valuation when earnings are volatile [30][31]. New Features and Tools - A new feature in the "Today Stars" mini-program has been launched, allowing users to access ETF valuation tables and identify undervalued ETFs [32][35]. - The program provides real-time data on ETF valuations, including premium/discount rates and historical valuation data [35].
