长城宏观：新兴科技有望是本轮行情“中军主线”

Market Overview - In October, the Shanghai Composite Index showed a trend of upward fluctuation, with major indices experiencing more declines than gains. The overall large-cap stocks outperformed small-cap stocks, and value stocks outperformed growth stocks. Sectors such as coal, steel, and non-ferrous metals saw significant gains, while media, beauty care, and automotive sectors lagged behind. The average daily trading volume was 2.16 billion, with margin trading remaining at 2.4 trillion [1]. Macroeconomic Analysis - The US-China trade conflict has entered a phase of easing. In October, the manufacturing PMI in China fell to 49.0%, down 0.8 percentage points from the previous month, indicating a gradual adaptation to external changes. The focus of macroeconomic policy may shift towards areas that are relatively "not hot," with potential for monetary policy easing, including possible rate cuts and the implementation of investment-boosting policies [2][3]. Investment Strategy - The market is expected to experience a rebound, supported by the outcomes of the 20th National Congress and progress in US-China trade negotiations. However, without significant policy catalysts, the market may enter a phase of adjustment post-meeting. The investment outlook remains positive, with expectations for a "spring rally" and opportunities for positioning in the market as economic transformation accelerates and risk-free rates decline [4][5]. Specific Investment Directions - Focus areas for investment include: 1) Technology growth sectors such as internet, TMT, new energy, innovative pharmaceuticals, and defense [5] 2) New materials and cyclical products with improved market conditions, including chemicals, non-ferrous metals, and steel [5] 3) Financial sectors such as brokerage, banking, and insurance [5] 4) Consumer goods towards the end of the year [5]
