长城基金汪立：布局春季行情，关注三大方向

Group 1: Market Trends - The market continues to favor technology growth, while cyclical and consumer sectors are experiencing a pullback. AI-related optical modules and chips are gaining strength, alongside significant increases in controllable nuclear fusion and data center electricity, as well as heightened interest in smart grids and green energy consumption. Commercial aerospace remains highly active, while sectors like carbon black, phosphorus chemicals, methanol, real estate, and home textiles are lagging behind [1][6]. Group 2: Macroeconomic Analysis - The Central Economic Work Conference in China outlined five new understandings and eight key tasks to stabilize and promote economic growth. The focus is on a more proactive fiscal policy, leading investment recovery, and addressing real estate inventory issues. The conference emphasized the need for incremental policies based on changing circumstances [2][7]. - In November, China's core CPI rose to 0.7% year-on-year, while PPI fell to -2.2%. CPI was driven by food prices, consumer subsidies, and rising gold prices, while international oil price declines pressured PPI. The M1-M2 gap widened significantly, but M1 may stabilize marginally in the future. Exports in dollar terms grew by 5.9%, and imports increased by 1.9% [2][7]. Group 3: U.S. Federal Reserve Actions - The Federal Reserve announced a 25 basis point cut in the federal funds rate, bringing it to a target range of 3.50% to 3.75%. This decision aligns with expectations but reflects increasing internal divisions. The Fed's outlook on the U.S. economy and inflation has become more optimistic, and there may be further rate cuts anticipated due to a weakening labor market and upcoming leadership changes [3][8]. Group 4: Investment Strategy - A cross-year investment strategy is beginning, with expectations for policy adjustments to support market liquidity and activity. Historical patterns suggest that the spring market rally typically occurs from December to April, with large-cap stocks leading the way. Current market conditions may present a significant opportunity for positioning ahead of the spring rally [4][9]. - The investment outlook favors technology, financial services, and consumer sectors. Specific areas of interest include AI advancements, capital market reforms, and cyclical stocks that have seen valuation adjustments after three years of decline. Target sectors include internet, media, computing, and manufacturing with global competitive advantages, as well as low-priced consumer stocks and cyclical industries like non-ferrous metals and chemicals [5][10].
