The focus is on identifying promising investment directions amidst this uncertainty [1]. Group 1: Key Investment Directions - The pharmaceutical research outsourcing (CXO) sector is highlighted as a key area for investment, benefiting from strong demand from global pharmaceutical companies for new drug development [1][7]. - In the U.S. market, two biotechnology funds (IBB and XBI) and major companies like UnitedHealth and Novo Nordisk are recommended for attention due to favorable conditions stemming from anticipated Federal Reserve interest rate cuts [1][12][13]. Group 2: Market Performance Overview - In Q3 2025, the A-share biopharmaceutical index rose by 14%, with significant gains in specific sectors such as pharmaceutical research outsourcing (up 48%) and medical consumables (up 22%) [2][3]. - The Hong Kong stock market saw even more substantial gains, with the healthcare sector increasing by 41%, driven by biotechnology and life sciences services [2][4].

Group 5: External Influences - The ongoing U.S. policy changes pose potential risks, particularly regarding tariffs on innovative drugs, but the impact on the CXO sector is expected to be minimal [9]. - The anticipated Federal Reserve interest rate cuts are seen as a critical factor that could positively influence the U.S. pharmaceutical market, particularly for biotechnology funds [11][12].
