Group 1: Reform Background and Impact - The ChiNext board underwent a registration system reform in mid-2020, which reshaped its ecosystem and triggered a significant growth trend in the market [3][4]. - The previous reform introduced key measures such as a five-day trading period without price limits for new stocks and allowed unprofitable companies to list, leading to a rapid release of reform dividends reflected in market performance [4][5]. - Following the initial public offerings under the new system, the average stock price increase was 212.4%, with some stocks seeing gains exceeding 1000% [5]. Group 2: Market Performance and Growth - From August 2020 to August 2021, the ChiNext index rose by 25.12%, significantly outperforming the Shanghai Composite Index and Shenzhen Component Index [5]. - The number of companies with a market capitalization exceeding 100 billion yuan increased from 9 to 19 post-reform, indicating a substantial upgrade in market structure [5][6]. - By August 2025, the ChiNext board is projected to have 1,384 listed companies with a total market capitalization of 16.52 trillion yuan, reflecting the strengthened support for emerging enterprises [6]. Group 3: Evolution of the ChiNext Board - The ChiNext index has evolved through different phases, becoming a focal point for emerging industries during the mobile internet era (2013-2015) and again during the high-growth periods of new energy, innovative pharmaceuticals, and semiconductors (2019-2021) [8]. - The current market trend shows a shift towards a more stable and sustainable growth pattern, with the ChiNext board no longer being the sole indicator of emerging industries due to the establishment of the Sci-Tech Innovation Board and the Beijing Stock Exchange [9]. - The inflow of funds into exchange-traded funds (ETFs) has been significant, with a net inflow of 227.9 billion yuan from June to August 2025, which is expected to further support the valuation recovery of the ChiNext board [9].
