Quantitative Models and Construction Methods 1. Model Name: "All Stocks Portfolio" - **Model Construction Idea**: This model aggregates all broker-recommended stocks ("golden stocks") and evaluates their performance as a portfolio[18][21] - **Model Construction Process**: 1. Collect all broker-recommended stocks for the month 2. Weight the stocks within the portfolio based on the number of recommendations by brokers 3. Exclude non-A-share stocks and Hong Kong-listed stocks to focus solely on A-shares[18] - **Model Evaluation**: The model demonstrates strong performance, significantly outperforming benchmark indices such as CSI 300 and CSI 500[18][21] 2. Model Name: "Newly Added Stocks Portfolio" - **Model Construction Idea**: Focuses on stocks newly added to the broker-recommended list, as they tend to exhibit better performance compared to repeated recommendations[18][23] - **Model Construction Process**: 1. Identify stocks newly added to the broker-recommended list for the month 2. Construct a portfolio weighted by the number of broker recommendations 3. Exclude non-A-share stocks and Hong Kong-listed stocks[18] - **Model Evaluation**: Newly added stocks outperform repeated recommendations, showcasing their superior return potential[18][23] 3.
