Core Viewpoint - The article emphasizes the importance of dynamic strategy configuration in quantitative investing, highlighting the limitations of traditional models and proposing a new framework based on large language models (LLM) for better adaptability to changing market conditions [2][3][5]. Group 1: Evolution of Quantitative Investing - Over the past decade, quantitative investing in the A-share market has evolved significantly, driven by the search for "Alpha factors" that can predict stock returns [5]. - The rapid increase in the number of Alpha factors does not directly translate to improved returns due to the quick decay of Alpha and the homogenization of factors among different institutions [5][12]. Group 2: Challenges in Factor Combination - Different factor combination models exhibit significant performance differences across market phases, making it difficult to find a single model that performs optimally in all conditions [12]. - Traditional models, such as mean-variance optimization, are sensitive to input parameters, leading to instability in performance [14][15]. - Machine learning models, while powerful, often suffer from a "black box" issue, making it hard for fund managers to trust their decisions during critical moments [16][18]. Group 3: Proposed LLM-Based Framework - The proposed "Judgment-Inference Framework" consists of three layers: training, analysis, and decision-making [2][3][19]. - **Training Layer**: Runs a diverse set of selected Alpha models to create a robust strategy library [22]. - **Analysis Layer**: Conducts automated performance analysis of models and generates structured performance reports based on market conditions [24][27]. - **Decision Layer**: Utilizes LLM to integrate information from the analysis layer and make informed weight allocation decisions [28][31]. Group 4: Empirical Results - Backtesting results on the CSI 300 index show that the LLM-based dynamic strategy configuration can achieve an annualized excess return of 7.21%, outperforming equal-weighted and single model benchmarks [3][41]. - The LLM dynamic combination exhibited a maximum drawdown of -9.47%, lower than all benchmark models, indicating effective risk management [44]. Group 5: Future Enhancements - The framework can be further optimized by expanding the base model library to include more diverse strategies and enhancing market state dimensions with macroeconomic and sentiment indicators [46].

Core Viewpoint - The report discusses the ongoing trend of household deposits migrating to the equity market, highlighting the gradual process and current status of this migration [2][33]. Group 1: Deposit Migration Progress - The trend of deposit migration continues, with a notable increase in the M1 growth rate to 6.0% in August, up by 0.4 percentage points from July, while M2 growth remains stable at 8.8% [3][5]. - The decrease in growth rates for both household and corporate time deposits indicates a shift towards more liquid forms of deposits, driven by lower interest rates on maturing deposits and active capital market performance [3][12]. - Non-bank deposits increased by 550 billion yuan year-on-year in August, although this growth rate has slowed compared to July's 1.39 trillion yuan increase, suggesting that the migration to equity markets is a significant factor [12][19].

Group 3: Liquidity and Economic Factors - The liquidity environment remains ample, with the central bank's liquidity injection in August increasing by 400 billion yuan year-on-year, keeping interbank market rates low at around 1.5% [24][28]. - However, the growth of real deposits in August was 1.7 trillion yuan, which is 600 billion yuan less than the previous year, primarily due to weakened credit demand and reduced government bond issuance [24][31]. - The pace of cross-border capital inflow has slowed, with the cumulative foreign exchange settlement surplus indicating a shift in capital flow dynamics, although the year-on-year increase in August was still significant at 14.5 billion USD [30][31]. Group 4: Future Outlook - The report suggests that while the trend of deposit migration continues, the pace may slow due to several factors, including reduced deposit creation capacity from fiscal and credit measures, increased investor divergence post-stock market rally, and a slowdown in export growth affecting capital inflows [33]. - The estimated potential for deposit migration remains between 5 to 7 trillion yuan, indicating that this trend may continue to evolve in the medium term [33].
