Group 1 - The current stock market is in a high volatility phase, while convertible bond valuations are at historically high levels. The proportion of convertible bond holdings by public funds has increased, indicating a shift in asset allocation towards convertible bonds and other equity assets due to high expectations in the stock market and a scarcity of assets in the bond market [1][12] - The medium to long-term outlook suggests that economic recovery and industrial structural upgrades will continue, with the stock market expected to maintain a trend of oscillating upward in 2026. Convertible bond valuations are supported by allocation demand, although the potential for further increases is limited [1][12] Group 2 - The investment strategy for convertible bonds should adopt a "winning probability" mindset, recognizing that different industries will experience varying degrees of prosperity. Public funds possess strong fundamental research capabilities, allowing them to actively price convertible bonds linked to improving fundamentals. High premium rates on some convertible bonds may still yield strong excess returns if the underlying stocks are in high-growth sectors [2][13] - Caution is advised regarding specific types of convertible bonds with excessively high premium rates, particularly those with less than six months remaining until maturity and those that may trigger early redemption clauses. These bonds face risks of rapid premium compression due to their contractual limitations [2][13] Group 3 - The weekly performance of the convertible bond index showed a slight increase of 0.05%, with certain sectors like food and beverage, beauty care, and electric equipment performing well. The median price of convertible bonds across various parity ranges has risen, indicating that valuations remain at relatively high historical levels [3][17] - The influx of incremental capital into the market is expected to continue, with a likely "spring excitement" rally at the beginning of the year, focusing on technology and high-end manufacturing investment opportunities. The chemical sector is anticipated to see improvements in demand, with well-structured supply and demand dynamics in certain sub-sectors expected to perform well [3][17] Group 4 - Suggested focus areas for convertible bonds include: (1) the rising demand for overseas computing power and the acceleration of AI industrialization driven by domestic model iterations, with recommendations for bonds from companies like Ruike and Qizhong; (2) high-end manufacturing is expected to remain strong, with recommendations for bonds from companies like Yake, Daimei, Huachen, Yubang, and Tairui; (3) the "anti-involution" trend may optimize supply and demand patterns in certain industries, with a recommendation for bonds from Youfa [4][18]
