Core Viewpoint - The article discusses the recent performance of the A-share market, particularly the Shanghai Composite Index reaching 3500 points, and analyzes the underlying factors driving this market movement [3][12]. Market Temperature - The current market indices show varying recovery levels, with the Shanghai Composite Index returning to early 2022 levels, and the CSI 2000 Index recovering to April 2017 levels.

Structural Characteristics of the Market - The current market structure is described as "barbell," with small-cap stocks and financials supporting the market, while large-cap growth stocks have shown less sustained performance.

Key investment opportunities are identified in new technologies such as AI, robotics, military technology, and solid-state batteries, which could drive sector rotation [14][15].
