Quantitative Models and Construction Methods 1.

Industries with RS > 90% are considered potential leaders for the year [10] - **Model Construction Process**: 1. Use 29 first-level industry indices as the investment universe [10] 2. Calculate the price change over the past 20, 40, and 60 trading days for each industry index [10] 3. Rank the price changes for each period and normalize the rankings to obtain RS_20, RS_40, and RS_60 [10] 4. Compute the average of the three rankings to derive the final relative strength index: $ RS = (RS_{20} + RS_{40} + RS_{60}) / 3 $ where RS_20, RS_40, and RS_60 represent the normalized rankings of price changes over 20, 40, and 60 trading days, respectively [10] - **Model Evaluation**: The model successfully identified leading industries in 2024, such as coal, banking, and AI-related sectors, which showed strong performance during the year [10][12] 2. Model Name: Industry Rotation Model (Prosperity-Trend-Crowding Framework) - **Model Construction Idea**: This model combines three dimensions—prosperity, trend, and crowding—to recommend industry allocations. It includes two sub-strategies: "Strong Trend-Low Crowding" and "High Prosperity-Strong Trend" [7][15] - **Model Construction Process**: 1. Define prosperity as the core metric, supplemented by trend and crowding dimensions [15] 2. For the "High Prosperity-Strong Trend" strategy, focus on industries with high prosperity and strong trends while avoiding highly crowded industries [15] 3. For the "Strong Trend-Low Crowding" strategy, prioritize industries with strong trends and low crowding while avoiding low-prosperity industries [15] 4. Allocate weights to industries based on the framework, e.g., November 2025 allocation: Basic Chemicals (18%), Media (16%), Agriculture (12%), Light Manufacturing (12%), Computers (12%), Home Appliances (9%), Real Estate (9%), Retail (6%), New Energy (4%), Coal (3%) [7][15] - **Model Evaluation**: The model demonstrated strong performance, with an annualized excess return of 13.7% and an IR of 1.5. It also showed a high monthly win rate of 67% [15][22] 3.

It aims to capture reversal opportunities in industries with low inventory pressure and potential for restocking [29] - **Model Construction Process**: 1. Focus on industries experiencing current or past distress with signs of recovery [29] 2. Identify industries with low inventory pressure and restocking potential [29] 3. Incorporate analyst long-term positive outlooks for these industries [29] - **Model Evaluation**: The model achieved an absolute return of 27.9% and an excess return of 7.5% relative to equal-weighted industry benchmarks in 2025 (up to October) [29] --- Model Backtesting Results 1.
