Core Viewpoint - The article emphasizes the importance of understanding the distinct roles of different asset classes in an investment portfolio, rather than expecting each asset to perform well at all times [6][34]. Group 1: Stocks - Stocks are primarily meant for long-term growth and should not be expected to provide stability or consistent returns in the short term [8][12]. - The volatility and potential for significant drawdowns are inherent characteristics of stocks, which should be accepted as part of their role in a portfolio [10][11]. - Stocks should be viewed as the engine of a portfolio, contributing to long-term growth without guaranteeing a smooth investment experience [12] . Group 2: Bonds - Bonds are often undervalued and serve the primary purpose of stabilizing a portfolio rather than enhancing overall returns [14][15]. - Their value lies in reducing volatility and providing a buffer during market downturns, allowing investors to avoid making hasty decisions under emotional stress [16][17]. - Bonds act as a shock absorber in a portfolio, ensuring that investors can maintain their strategy even in challenging market conditions [16][17]. Group 3: Commodities - Commodities are viewed as tools for hedging specific risks rather than core assets for long-term investment [19][22]. - Their performance can be highly volatile and dependent on supply-demand dynamics, making them less suitable for consistent returns [21][22]. - The value of commodities is context-dependent, and they should be utilized strategically during specific market conditions rather than as a permanent fixture in a portfolio [23][24].

Conclusion - The article concludes that the confusion surrounding asset allocation often stems from unrealistic expectations of each asset class to perform well at all times [33]. - Each asset class has its specific responsibilities: stocks for long-term growth, bonds for stability, commodities for risk hedging, and cash for flexibility [34][35]. - Accepting these roles simplifies the asset allocation process and allows for a more effective investment strategy [35][36].

Group 2 - There is a potential turning point for cash flow as cross-border funds are beginning to return to China, indicated by the recent appreciation of the RMB beyond the 7 mark [24][26]. - The repatriation of funds from foreign trade enterprises is expected to alleviate domestic cash flow shortages, as these funds will be used to settle accounts and pay wages [32][33]. - The article suggests that as cash flows improve, there may be a shift of funds from the bond market to the stock market, especially as expectations for the real estate market have changed [35][36]. Group 3 - The article argues that increasing market interest rates, rather than lowering rates, is necessary to accelerate the return of cross-border funds [48]. - It highlights that the central bank may intervene to stabilize bond market fluctuations and control the pace of RMB appreciation to prevent excessive inflation [50][52]. - The article concludes that as domestic cash flow issues are addressed, consumer sentiment is likely to improve, with a projected turning point for domestic demand expected in 2026 [70].
