Group 1 - The article highlights the potential return of approximately $2.5 trillion in foreign exchange reserves held by companies abroad, which could significantly impact liquidity in the A-share market in the coming years [4][8]. - The phenomenon of "hiding foreign exchange in the public" is discussed, where Chinese companies have retained a large amount of foreign exchange earnings abroad due to the inverted interest rate differential between China and the U.S. and expectations of RMB depreciation [6][7]. - The article notes that the accumulated trade surplus over the past five years has exceeded $2.8 trillion, yet foreign exchange reserves have remained stable, indicating a significant amount of funds are being held overseas [6][8]. Group 2 - A turning point is anticipated as the interest rate differential between China and the U.S. narrows, with the potential for the Federal Reserve's policy rate to drop to around 3% by 2026, making RMB assets more attractive [10]. - The return of these funds could lead to passive liquidity expansion, as the central bank may need to issue an equivalent amount of RMB to hedge against exchange rate fluctuations, thereby providing a boost to the stock market [12]. - The article emphasizes that while the return of funds is a significant factor, it is not the sole determinant of market direction, and maintaining a balanced equity position, particularly in sectors benefiting from liquidity easing and economic recovery, is advisable [15].
