1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - In Q2 2025, the allocation of active equity - oriented funds showed an obvious "dumbbell - shaped" structure. Funds increased their positions in the financial sector, with the allocation coefficients of city commercial banks and rural commercial banks rising to the highest levels since 2016, and that of joint - stock banks at the central level since 2016. The allocation coefficient of securities remained low. In the technology assets, the allocation coefficient of the computing power chain (communication equipment) reached the highest level since 2016, while the current quantile of the allocation coefficient of the AI software end (IT services, software development) was still low. The quantile of the current allocation coefficient of the pharmaceutical sector rebounded to the central level, with a relatively high quantile for innovative drugs and a low quantile for CXO. In addition, from a global perspective, sectors such as decoration building materials, decoration and decoration, chemical raw materials, chemical products, silicon materials and wafers, and aquaculture still had historically low allocation coefficients, and there were positive changes in both supply and demand recently [1]. - In Q2 2025, active equity - oriented funds increased their positions in the ChiNext and the Science and Technology Innovation Board and reduced their positions in the Main Board. The position in the Science and Technology Innovation Board reached a new high since 2019. From an industry perspective, funds increased their positions in communication, agriculture, forestry, animal husbandry, national defense and military industry, and media. The position in Hong Kong stocks reached a new high since 2019 (14%), and the increase in the over - (under -) allocation ratio of sectors such as pharmaceutical biology, non - bank finance, and light manufacturing ranked among the top [3]. 3. Summary According to Relevant Catalogs 25Q2 Overall Configuration Overview - In Q2 2025, active equity - oriented funds held stocks worth 2.9 trillion yuan, and the position rebounded to 84.5%. Funds increased their positions in the ChiNext and the Science and Technology Innovation Board and reduced their positions in the Main Board. The position in the Science and Technology Innovation Board reached a new high since 2019. From an industry perspective, funds increased their positions in communication, agriculture, forestry, animal husbandry, national defense and military industry, and media. The position in Hong Kong stocks reached a new high since 2019 (14%), and the increase in the over - (under -) allocation ratio of sectors such as pharmaceutical biology, non - bank finance, and light manufacturing ranked among the top [3]. Concern 1: "Supply - demand improvement + low position" Concentrated in Anti - involution and Infrastructure Chains - From the perspective of chip distribution, assets with low quantiles of the Q2 2025 allocation coefficient (since 2016) were mainly concentrated in anti - involution, infrastructure, AI, and domestic demand industrial chains. Specifically, in the anti - involution area, assets such as chemical raw materials (chlor - alkali), chemical products, silicon materials and wafers, aquaculture, and energy metals had low quantiles of the allocation coefficient. In the infrastructure chain, funds reduced their positions in the real estate infrastructure chain in Q2 2025. Considering policy expectations, assets with relatively low quantiles of the allocation coefficient and positive catalysts included decoration building materials and decoration and decoration. In the AI field, funds increased their positions in the computing power chain in Q2 2025, with the chip congestion of communication equipment at a historical high, while the congestion of computer equipment, IT services, and software development was relatively low, and the quantile of the allocation coefficient of communication services since 2016 was still at the historical central position. In the domestic demand assets, under the continuous disturbance of tariffs, policy efforts on domestic demand might still be the baseline scenario. In Q2 2025, the quantiles of the allocation coefficients of food processing, liquor, animal health, and flavor fermentation products were below 10%. Further considering high - frequency prosperity data, the supply - side perspective of financial reports, and policy expectations, sectors such as decoration building materials, decoration and decoration, chemical raw materials, chemical products, silicon materials and wafers, and aquaculture still had historically low allocation coefficients, and there were positive changes in both supply and demand recently [4]. Concern 2: The Fund Allocation in the Second Quarter Showed an Obvious Dumbbell - shaped Structure - In Q2 2025, the increase in positions of active equity - oriented funds showed a "dumbbell - shaped" structure. From the perspective of fund holding styles, compared with Q1 2025, the overall style of public funds in Q2 2025 shifted towards the theme - growth and large - market - value value at the two ends of the dumbbell. From the perspective of different industries, from the two perspectives of over - (under -) allocation ratio and allocation coefficient, active equity - oriented funds in Q2 2025 increased their positions in theme - growth directions such as AI, national defense and military industry, media, and communication catalyzed by geopolitical factors, as well as large - market - value value industries such as finance. The increase in positions in non - bank finance might be catalyzed by the "stable coin", and the increase in positions in banks might be related to bank valuation repair and the public fund reform plan [5]. Concern 3: Growth - Oriented Funds Chose Directions such as Communication and Military Industry, while Value - Oriented Funds Increased Their Positions in Banks - Considering funds with relatively obvious position changes: Funds that increased their positions in communication, national defense and military industry and other theme - growth industries in Q2 2025 reduced their positions in power equipment and automobiles, which might be internal position - switching within growth - oriented funds to choose new growth directions. In Q2 2025, value - oriented funds adjusted internally, increasing their positions in banks and reducing their positions in food and beverages. Growth - oriented funds switched from power equipment and electronics to pharmaceuticals (fund sizes were generally > 5 billion), and value - oriented funds reduced their positions in food and beverages and increased their positions in pharmaceuticals (fund sizes were generally < 5 billion). Funds that increased their positions significantly but still had a position < 80% in Q2 2025 increased their positions in household appliances, food and beverages, and pharmaceutical biology [5]. 25Q2 Public Fund Position Analysis: Style Shifted towards the Two Ends of the "Dumbbell" - **Position Style and Factor Split**: In terms of style drift, the position style of public funds in the second quarter shifted towards the "dumbbell" directions of small - market - value growth and large - market - value value. Compared with Q1 2025, the overall style of public funds in Q2 2025 shifted towards the small - market - value growth and large - market - value value at the two ends of the dumbbell (manifested as an increase in the proportion of the scatter plot in the first and third quadrants). The attention to stocks with low valuations and stable cash flows increased. Compared with Q1 2025, the attention of funds to stocks with low valuations and stable cash flows increased [15][20]. - **Heavy - Position Stock Concentration**: The concentration of fund heavy - position stocks decreased slightly quarter - on - quarter, which might be affected by the decline in the stock prices of heavy - position stocks. In Q2 2025, the proportion of the market value of the top 50 heavy - position stocks in the total market value of active equity - oriented fund heavy - position stocks decreased slightly to 51.5% (VS 52.4% in Q1 2025), and the concentration of the top 100 heavy - position stocks decreased to 62.7% (VS 63.3% in Q1 2025). After excluding the impact of stock price increases and decreases, the concentration of the top 100 fund positions in Q2 2025 was basically the same as that in Q1 2025 [23]. - **Increasing - Position Perspective Measurement**: From the two perspectives of allocation coefficient (position/standard allocation) and over - (under -) allocation ratio (position - standard allocation), the increase in positions of communication, national defense and military industry, and media ranked among the top, while the decline in positions of food and beverages, household appliances, and automobiles ranked among the top. The difference was that the ranking of the increase in the allocation coefficient of agriculture, forestry, animal husbandry, and beauty care was higher than that of the over - (under -) allocation ratio, indicating that the subsequent space for funds to increase their positions might be limited. The ranking of the allocation coefficient of banks and non - bank finance was lower than that of the over - (under -) allocation ratio, indicating that funds showed signs of bottom - fishing [25]. - **Industrial Chain Perspective**: From the industrial chain perspective, in Q2 2025, pharmaceuticals and TMT were the main directions for funds to increase their positions, and the main reduction was in the real estate infrastructure chain, export chain, domestic demand consumption, and advanced manufacturing. From the perspective of the quantile of the allocation coefficient, the quantiles of the allocation coefficients of the export chain and advanced manufacturing were at relatively high positions above 70%, while those of the other industrial chains were at low positions below 40% [36]. - **Index**: Among broad - based indexes, active equity - oriented funds had the highest increase in the over - (under -) allocation ratio for the CSI 500, Hang Seng Index, Hang Seng Technology Index, CSI 1000, and MSCI A50 constituent stocks, while the over - (under -) allocation ratio of the STAR 50, CSI 300, and SSE 50 constituent stocks decreased quarter - on - quarter. From the perspective of quantiles, in Q1 2025, the quantiles of the allocation coefficients of the Hang Seng Index, Hang Seng Technology Index, CSI 1000, and CSI 500 since 2016 were at relatively high positions of 100%, 100%, 86%, and 89% respectively [67]. Fund Allocation Logic - **Main Position Change Directions**: Funds that increased their positions in communication and national defense and military industry in Q2 2025 mainly reduced their positions in power equipment and automobiles (robots), which might be internal position - switching of growth - oriented funds to choose new growth directions. Funds that increased their positions in banks reduced their positions in food and beverages, which might be internal position adjustment of value - oriented funds. Funds that increased their positions in pharmaceuticals were more diversified. Some growth - oriented funds switched from power equipment, electronics, and automobiles to pharmaceuticals (fund sizes were generally > 5 billion), and some value - oriented funds reduced their positions in food and beverages and household appliances and increased their positions in pharmaceuticals (fund sizes were generally < 5 billion) [70]. - **Allocation Directions of Funds with Increased Positions**: Funds that increased their positions significantly in Q2 2025 mainly increased their positions in household appliances, food and beverages, and pharmaceutical biology. Considering that the equity positions of public funds were still at a high level, funds that still had room to increase their positions (meeting the conditions of equity position > 30% in Q1 2025, position increase > 10 pct in Q2 2025, and equity position < 85% in Q2 2025) mainly increased their positions in household appliances, food and beverages, and pharmaceutical biology [84]. 25Q2 Fund Allocation Overview: The Allocation Intensity of Hong Kong Stocks Continued to Increase - **Overview**: In Q2 2025, the positions of active equity - oriented funds in A - shares and Hong Kong stocks continued to increase quarter - on - quarter. The overall position was above the median since 2020. The performance of the common stock - type fund index and the partial - stock hybrid fund index in Q2 2025 was slightly weaker than that of the main indexes such as the Shanghai Composite Index but stronger than other main market indexes, reflecting that the overall performance of fund heavy - position stocks was stronger than the market in Q2 2025. Active equity - oriented funds increased their positions in the ChiNext and the Science and Technology Innovation Board and reduced their positions in the Main Board. The current allocation ratio of the ChiNext had dropped to around one standard deviation below the median since 2010, while the allocation ratio of the Science and Technology Innovation Board continued to reach a new high, and the overall science and technology attributes of public fund heavy - position stocks continued to strengthen. In addition, in terms of Hong Kong stocks, the allocation intensity of public funds to Hong Kong stocks increased in Q2 2025, rising by 1.0 pct quarter - on - quarter, and had reached the highest level since 2019 [89]. - **By Industry**: In terms of A - shares, communication, agriculture, forestry, animal husbandry, national defense and military industry, and media had the highest increase in the allocation coefficient, mainly increasing their positions in leading stocks in sub - directions such as communication equipment, feed, and ground military equipment. Sectors such as household appliances, automobiles, and food and beverages had the highest decline in the allocation coefficient, mainly reducing their positions in leading stocks in sub - directions such as white goods, passenger cars, and liquor. In Hong Kong stocks, sectors such as pharmaceuticals, light manufacturing, and non - bank finance had the highest increase in the allocation coefficient, while sectors such as commercial retail, non - ferrous metals, and banks had the highest decline in the allocation coefficient [104].
