高盛最新研报指出，中国股市当前涨势主要由散户资金推动，但仍有大量"存量资金"尚未入市，为市场 进一步上涨提供动力支撑，尤其看好中小盘表现。 8月21日，据追风交易台消息，高盛在最新研报中称，估计中国家庭持有55万亿元人民币"超额存款"， 目前仅有22%的家庭金融资产配置在基金和股票上，意味着潜在资金流入规模超过10万亿元人民币。 据高盛的家庭金融资产图表显示，中国家庭的现金存款占比达到63%，股票和基金占比为22%。 高盛研究部门估计，中国家庭持有约55万亿元人民币的"超额存款"。目前仅有22%的家庭金融资产配 置在基金和股票上，这意味着潜在的资金流入规模可能超过10万亿元人民币。 研报称，彭博数据从另一个角度印证了这一观点：家庭存款总额与A股总市值的比率同样显示出巨大的 资金配置空间。 高盛特别指出，目前已有迹象表明这种资金转移正在发生，数据显示，中国2025年家庭存款月度变化出 现明显负值，而非银行金融机构存款出现增加现象，或暗示居民储蓄可能从银行存款转向股票等金融资 产。 高盛强调看好中小盘指数的长期上涨空间，特别是中证1000指数。该指数散户持股比例高达61%，而外 资持股仅为2.5%。中证500指数 ...

"坚定买家"包括ETF、央行和投机者，他们基于宏观经济或风险对冲的判断来买黄金，不在乎价格，只 看策略对不对。他们决定了黄金价格的走势方向。机会型买家主要是新兴市场家庭，他们更在意价格是 否划算，当金价跌到吸引人的时候才出手（而且买了通常不会卖）。 该模型的核心逻辑：净信念购买量/矿山供应量的比率越高，金价上涨压力越大。由于矿山供应稳 定，"坚定买家"的净购买变化几乎解释了所有月度价格变动。 因此，高盛通过模型发现"坚定买家"的资金流动解释了70%的月度金价变动，100吨净购买对应1.7%的 金价上涨。高盛还指出，机会型买家主要影响价格波动幅度，而非趋势方向。 高盛重新定义黄金市场分析框架：传统供需模型失效，70%的金价变动由ETF、央行等"坚定买家"资金 流向驱动，黄金本质是"制度公信力对冲工具"。 8月19日，据追风交易台消息，高盛发布的黄金市场"入门指南"一周年总结报告，从根本上重新定义了 黄金市场的分析框架，认为传统供需模型不适用于黄金市场，价格驱动力来自"坚定买家"的资金流 向。 高盛在总结报告中提出了颠覆传统供需分析的"三大主力驱动模型"（ 3 Conviction Bucket Model），主 ...
