Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the content Core Viewpoints - This week's macro data is positive. Social financing and export data both exceeded expectations, and the settlement and sale of foreign exchange reached a new high for a single month in the past 10 years. The improvement in corporate credit and strong export performance indicate an economic recovery. The commodity market has cooled down, and the bond market has entered a relatively balanced range [1][2][3] Summary by Relevant Catalogs Macro Data Continued to Improve, Corporate Credit Improved, and Exports Were Strong - In December 2025, the social financing growth rate was higher than expected, with loan components providing support and a significant improvement in corporate credit. New social financing in December was 22,080 billion yuan, with a year-on-year growth rate of 8.30%. Corporate short-term loans were stronger than seasonal trends, and medium- and long-term loans improved year-on-year [9] - Exports in December increased by 6.6% year-on-year, and the full-year increase was 5.5%, both significantly exceeding market expectations. The settlement and sale of foreign exchange surplus in December reached the highest level for a single month since 2014, at 999.3 billion US dollars [2][9] - Historically, exchange rate appreciation is relatively beneficial to domestic assets. The central bank emphasized "preventing overshoot risks" in its recent statements [2][10] Commodity Market Pulled Back, and the Range of Rising Commodities "Narrowed" - Since the beginning of the year, commodities and equities have emerged in resonance, led by precious metals and non-ferrous metals. The Nanhua Commodity Index has risen by 3.7%. The market is mainly driven by geopolitical uncertainties and optimistic expectations for metals. The strength order is precious metals > non-ferrous metals > black metals > agricultural products > energy and chemicals [3][12] - After the Shanghai Stock Exchange raised the margin ratio for margin trading and the exchange introduced restrictions on some popular varieties, the commodity market cooled down. Only precious metals continued to rise, while the growth of non-ferrous metals slowed, and energy, chemicals, black metals, and agricultural products turned from rising to falling [3][14] - In the non-ferrous metals sector, there is an extreme style differentiation. Large-cap "value" varieties such as copper and aluminum are oscillating, lacking strong driving funds, while small-cap "growth" non-ferrous metals are highly elastic. Small metals are driven by supply factors, but their prices are volatile and difficult to sustain. Precious metals are mainly affected by geopolitical variables, with gold being less volatile than silver [3][16][19] Bond Market Entered a Relatively Balanced Range, and Attention Should Be Paid to the Differentiated Trends of Long-Term Bonds - Currently, the interest rate market has entered a relatively balanced range. The 30-year Treasury bond rate is around 2.3%, and the 10-year Treasury bond rate quickly returned to the central bank's desired range (around 1.85%) after a brief fluctuation [5][20] - For interest rate bonds, the short-term downward space is limited. Bond market sentiment has improved, and large banks have increased their purchases of 7 - 10-year bonds, which may indicate more policy easing. The profit of short-selling interest rate bonds has also decreased [5][20] - The strategy of short-selling local government bonds is attracting more attention, which may bring trading opportunities for widening spreads. The borrowing of local government bonds has increased, mainly due to concerns about supply and the narrowing of the spread between old local government bonds and old Treasury bonds [5][21] - For Tier 2 capital bonds and perpetual bonds, continuous buying is the key to the continuation of the market. Buying may come from dividend insurance and "fixed income +" accounts. However, for large institutional investors, the attractiveness of perpetual bonds is limited compared to equities at current levels. The allocation strength of "fixed income +" funds needs to be monitored [6][21]

Group 1 - The report highlights a spring market rally in A-shares driven by a "fear of missing out" mentality, leading to significant price increases [3][4] - The adjustment in financing margin ratios by the China Securities Regulatory Commission aims to prevent overheating in the market, promoting a slow bull market rather than ending the current bull run [3][6] - The report notes a shift in capital from high-leverage sectors to low-leverage sectors, indicating a more cautious investment approach [4][6] Group 2 - The AI industry chain is identified as a key investment focus, with a consensus forming around the logic of "storage drives computing power, and computing power leads to applications" [5] - The insurance sector is highlighted as a suitable contributor to absolute returns, benefiting from a bull market and showing defensive characteristics during corrections [5] - A combination investment strategy is recommended, focusing on sectors with high technological contributions and stable growth, such as chemicals, home appliances, and display panels [5] Group 3 - The report indicates that the balance of margin financing has reached 2.68 trillion yuan, surpassing previous highs, suggesting a cautious but optimistic market outlook [6][10] - The report discusses the performance of various sectors, noting that industries such as computers, non-bank financials, and pharmaceuticals have seen increased leverage, while others like defense and agriculture have begun to deleverage [7][8] - The report emphasizes the strong inflow of foreign capital, which has become a significant short-term market driver, contrasting with the more modest increase in margin financing [8][9] Group 4 - The report on the medical consumables procurement indicates a clear shift towards rational price competition, with a mechanism introduced to prevent extreme low pricing [15][16] - The procurement results show a high selection rate for domestic companies, particularly in the urology intervention market, indicating a trend towards domestic substitution [16] - The report suggests that the optimized procurement rules will positively impact leading companies with strong product capabilities and nationwide supply capabilities, enhancing their competitive position [16][17]

Report Industry Investment Rating - The report does not explicitly mention the industry investment rating [1][2][3] Core Viewpoints of the Report - The spring rally in the A-share market at the beginning of the year was driven by the fear of missing out, but after the regulatory adjustment of the minimum margin ratio for margin trading, the market shifted from a rapid rise to a slow bull market. The two - margin funds did not leave but switched from high - leverage to low - leverage sectors. The left - hand force of the spring rally came from institutional investors, while foreign capital and margin trading formed the right - hand acceleration, with foreign capital participating more actively [2][15] - The AI industry chain is the main direction where funds form a consensus. The logic of "storage driving computing power, and computing power leading to applications" is expected to be a popular investment direction. Insurance in the financial sector can contribute absolute returns, and industries such as chemicals, home appliances, and panels can be considered for portfolio investment [3][28][29] Summary According to the Directory Market Review: From High - Speed Growth to Active Cooling - At the beginning of the year, the A - share market experienced a spring rally. From the beginning of the year to January 13, the Sci - tech Innovation 50 index rose 9.33%, and sectors such as media, computer, and national defense and military industry led the gains. The proportion of margin trading turnover in the total turnover reached 11.5%, approaching the upper limit of the historical average plus twice the standard deviation [8] - On January 14, the regulatory authorities announced an increase in the margin ratio from 80% to 100%, which was a measure to cool down the over - heated market sentiment. After the adjustment, there was a "hot - cold switch" in the broad - based index and industry structure. In the broad - based index, leveraged funds shifted from small - cap to large - cap stocks. In the industry structure, funds shifted from high - volatility themes to undervalued blue - chips [11][12][13] Slow Bull Trend Established, Leverage Cooling, but Bullish Sentiment Remains - Margin trading accelerated the spring rally but was not the dominant force. The spring rally was mainly driven by domestic institutional investors, with foreign capital and margin trading accelerating on the right - hand side, and foreign capital's participation was more significant. Comparing the trading volume ratios of 9 trading days before and after New Year's Day, the trading volume ratio of north - bound funds increased from 10.2% to 11.6%, while that of margin trading only increased from 11.0% to 11.4% [15] - While broad - based ETFs experienced large - scale outflows, theme - based ETFs continued to see inflows. For example, from January 14 to 16, the average daily net outflow of the CSI 300 ETF reached 14.71 billion yuan, while sectors such as non - ferrous metals, consumption, securities, and medical devices saw capital inflows [19][20] Tightening Micro - environment Accelerates Stock Game, with Both Offensive and Defensive Strategies - The marginal tightening of the micro - liquidity environment led to a stock game and structural optimization. The AI industry chain remained the main line, and some funds flowed back to sectors such as home appliances and chemicals with high safety margins [25] - The capital flow in the AI industry showed a "spiral relay" pattern, starting from storage chips and commercial aerospace, moving to AI applications, and then flowing back to storage and spreading to embodied intelligent robots. The semiconductor and media ETFs remained at the forefront, indicating strong market recognition of the AI industry chain [26] Index Uptrend Slows, Strong Focus on the AI Industry Chain - The AI industry chain's "storage - computing power - application" logic is expected to be a popular investment direction. The performance of US stocks provides a strong reference, and the continuous strength of overseas technology giants has raised the valuation ceiling for A - share counterparts [28] - Insurance in the financial sector can contribute absolute returns. It benefits from the bull market and the rise of the technology sector in terms of asset - side profitability and has defensive properties when offensive sectors adjust [28] - For portfolio investment, technology sectors can provide high returns and elasticity, while sectors such as chemicals, home appliances, and panels with improving fundamentals and healthy chip structures can be used as stable investment options [29]

1. Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the content 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - The market cooled slightly in the second week of the new year. The margin trading and short - selling (MTS) new rules achieved a "preventive" cooling effect before the market overheated, and the slow - bull trend was established. MTS funds showed differentiation rather than a retreat, and northbound funds had a strong willingness to flow in, although the net outflow of broad - based ETFs accelerated [5][11]. - Institutions took a left - hand approach, while MTS and northbound funds served as accelerators for the incremental funds since the beginning of the year. Northbound funds became an incremental force for short - term market activity [9]. - The performance of broad - based indexes was differentiated.

In the first week, the average daily net purchase of margin trading in the Shanghai Composite Index, the CSI 500, and the CSI 1000 exceeded 3 billion yuan. This week, the net inflow of MTS in the CSI 500 and the CSI 1000 decreased significantly on Wednesday and Thursday, while the MTS funds in the STAR 50 continued to flow in at an accelerated pace [26]. - From Monday to Tuesday this week, industries such as household appliances, non - banking, media, pharmaceutical biology, computers, and non - ferrous metals had a relatively large proportion of MTS net purchases to trading volume. From Wednesday to Thursday, industries such as national defense and military industry, agriculture, forestry, animal husbandry, coal, and building materials shifted from adding leverage to de - leveraging. The proportion of MTS net purchases to trading volume in industries such as media, household appliances, pharmaceuticals, computers, and non - ferrous metals decreased significantly. After January 13, the proportion of MTS net purchases to trading volume in industries such as banks, public utilities, food and beverages, non - banking, and electronics increased [6][27]. - This week, stocks of all market - value gradients added leverage.

The discount deepened only on Wednesday and then recovered. Overall, the demand for hedging decreased [52]. Northbound Funds - Since Q4 2025, due to the relaxation of US monetary policy, the increasing expectation of US dollar depreciation, and the narrowing of the Sino - US interest rate spread, net foreign exchange settlement has increased, leading to the passive release of RMB and the return of RMB [59]. - Foreign capital actively participated as a right - hand force in the market rally at the beginning of the year, with a higher degree of participation than MTS funds.
