Core Viewpoints - The market is currently experiencing a short-term adjustment, with low market sentiment. However, the downward space for the index is considered limited, and the year-end adjustment presents a good opportunity for positioning for the coming year, particularly focusing on mid-cap blue chips [4][15]. Market Outlook - The short-term market adjustment does not alter the ongoing oscillating trend. The adjustment is influenced by both internal and external factors. Externally, there is a downward revision of the expectation for a decline in overseas risk-free interest rates in December. Internally, the risk appetite of high-risk investors is declining faster than that of low-risk investors. It is anticipated that the external factors may ease, and the risk appetite will gradually converge towards the middle. Overall, the future outlook remains stable with a mix of gains and losses, maintaining a sideways oscillation with a slight upward trend [5][16]. Industry Comparison - The layout for mid-cap blue chips is timely. Since March 2023, the market has seen a consensus expectation for a rally in both technology and dividend stocks. The report suggests that the trend of risk styles at both ends is nearing its end, and future investment opportunities lie in stocks with medium risk characteristics. The long-dormant mid-cap blue chip market is expected to rise again, making the current market adjustment a favorable time for positioning [6][17]. Industry Allocation - Investment opportunities are identified in medium-risk stocks, focusing on three main lines: 1. The manufacturing sector is shifting from "dream narratives" to "reality verification," emphasizing the need for investments based on orders and revenue verification, particularly in communications, electronics, power equipment, and machinery [7][18]. 2. The consumer sector, which has been quiet for years, is approaching a turning point. Many consumer stocks are undervalued, and with supply contraction, prices are expected to rise. Key areas of focus include the restaurant supply chain, second and third-tier liquor, snacks and beverages, hotels, human resources, and beauty care [7][18]. 3. The cyclical sector is undergoing a revaluation driven by technological empowerment and supply constraints. Attention should be given to new materials and strategic minor metals (such as antimony and rare earths), as well as industrial metals (copper and aluminum) that are experiencing improved supply-demand dynamics, along with traditional commodities like live pigs and rubber [7][18]. Thematic Investments - The report highlights several thematic investment areas: - The Google & Alibaba supply chain, where there is significant divergence in market expectations regarding AI development. The next phase may present opportunities across the entire supply chain from applications to large models and upstream computing power [8][19]. - Semiconductor expansion and domestic substitution, with expectations for domestic wafer fabs to expand production next year and the capital progress of domestic storage chip leaders. The development of domestic semiconductor materials is expected to accelerate amid international relations challenges [8][19]. - Solid-state batteries, where the market is closely monitoring industrial progress. The acceleration point for solid-state battery industrialization has emerged, with the order-driven phase beginning in the equipment/materials segment [8][19]. - Aerospace satellites, which are entering a development opportunity period with expected catalysts. The IPO progress of industry leaders is anticipated to accelerate, with various fields such as constellation networking and satellite bidding expected to see rapid implementation [8][20]. - Upstream price increases, driven by supply contraction and structural demand growth, are expected to provide price elasticity for related products, particularly in the upstream of the new energy industry, chemicals, and non-ferrous metals [8][20].
