【宏观策略】理性降温，风格暂回稳健——2026年2月资产配置报告

Macro Overview - The U.S. labor market remains weak, with the Federal Reserve likely to maintain interest rates in the short term and a low probability of balance sheet reduction [3] - December's non-farm payrolls showed weakness, and previous data was revised down, indicating a deteriorating labor market despite a "virtually low" unemployment rate [3] - Inflation in December was moderate, reflecting previous market concerns about tariff transmission effects, which may be "one-off"; future inflation will depend more on rental prices, service industries, and energy prices [3] - The Federal Reserve is expected to keep interest rates unchanged until at least June 2026, influenced by fiscal stimulus measures supporting the economy and inflation [3] - The nomination of Kevin Warsh as the next Fed Chair suggests a preference for policy independence through balance sheet reduction, but this view lacks consensus and empirical support within the Fed [3] Domestic Macro - Economic downward pressure is increasing, with Q4 GDP growth slowing to 4.5%, but the annual growth target of 5% is expected to be met [3] - Domestic consumption, investment, and real estate continue to decline, with investment growth slowing due to debt reduction and subsidy withdrawal, leading to increased pressure on consumption [3] - External demand and production remain strong, providing important support for economic growth [3] - Price indices are stabilizing, showing the effects of anti-inflation measures, but internal demand remains insufficient, with a divergence in pressures between upstream high-tech manufacturing and lower-tier sectors [3] - Policies are still focused on proactive measures, with a relatively mild overall intensity; 2026 policies are expected to be more pragmatic, with many local targets set lower than last year [3] A-share Strategy - The market is returning to rationality, with a short-term shift towards stability; investment and consumption are declining, while price indicators are stabilizing [3] - A-share trading volume has decreased, but overall sentiment remains high; medium to long-term policies are increasingly focused on technological innovation, with national subsidies continuing but at a reduced intensity [3] - External geopolitical risks, particularly from Trump, have increased but have a limited impact on the domestic market [3] - The spring market rally may be nearing its end, with expectations for a more rational market in February; the early spring rally has progressed quickly, and regulatory measures are cooling the market [3] - Investors are advised to consider taking profits or shifting to a more stable investment style before the Spring Festival, as the market is expected to experience increased volatility [3] Industry/Style - Investors are encouraged to take profits in high-growth technology sectors before the Spring Festival and shift to a more defensive style [3] - Focus on large-cap indices such as the Shanghai Composite, CSI 300, and A500, as market volatility is expected to rise [3] - Short-term strategies should include high-dividend stocks and sectors like banking, utilities, consumption, and real estate for potential opportunities [3] - Mid-term outlook suggests support for commodity-based sectors like non-ferrous metals and chemicals, while technology hardware sectors should be monitored for guidance from earnings reports [3] Asset Allocation Views - A-shares: Neutral [5] - Hong Kong stocks: Neutral [5] - Interest rate bonds: Neutral [5] - Credit bonds: Neutral [5] - Convertible bonds: Neutral [5] - U.S. stocks: Relatively optimistic [5] - U.S. bonds: Relatively optimistic [5] - U.S. dollar: Neutral [5] - Japanese stocks: Relatively optimistic [5] - Gold: Neutral [5] - Oil: Relatively cautious [5] - Currency/deposits: Neutral [5]
