Group 1 - The "Santa Claus Rally" phenomenon refers to the tendency for stock markets to rise during the last five trading days of the year and the first two trading days of the new year, with an average return of 1.3% and an 80% probability of positive returns since 1950 [3][4]. - Historical data shows that when the "Santa Claus Rally" occurs, it often indicates a stable market sentiment for the following year's first quarter, while its absence suggests a higher risk of market pullbacks [5][7]. - The 2025 "Santa Claus Rally" is expected to be influenced by a favorable liquidity environment following a 25 basis point rate cut by the Federal Reserve, with the S&P 500 potentially breaking the historical high of 6920 points by the end of 2025 [7][8]. Group 2 - In 2026, the U.S. economy may enter a delicate balance as the Federal Reserve seeks to balance "preventive rate cuts" with "anti-inflation" measures, with inflation having decreased to 2.7% as of November 2025 [8][9]. - The market anticipates two rate cuts in 2026, but there is a possibility that the Federal Reserve may adopt a more accommodative policy, potentially cutting rates three times throughout the year [9]. - The stock market in 2026 is expected to be driven by "profit growth and moderate valuation expansion," with a focus on sectors like artificial intelligence infrastructure and space economy, while emphasizing the importance of stock selection over market trends [10][11]. Group 3 - The artificial intelligence sector is expected to face challenges due to high capital expenditures and debt levels, with companies needing to demonstrate tangible performance rather than speculative concepts [10][11]. - Companies with deteriorating financial conditions and high valuations in the AI application space may face sell-offs, particularly if the financing environment does not meet expectations [11][12]. - The market in 2026 is anticipated to be selective, favoring companies that can generate immediate cash flow, while avoiding high-valuation stocks that may be vulnerable to valuation corrections [12].
