Institutional Insights - According to Furuang Fund, following the Federal Reserve's recent 25 basis point rate cut, the Bank of Japan raised rates by 25 basis points (as expected), while the European Central Bank remained unchanged. This policy divergence has caused short-term fluctuations in global capital markets. Looking ahead, with the Fed's December rate cut and the implementation of domestic policies, the medium-term trend for A-shares remains positive. Notably, at last week's market low, there was a significant net subscription for broad-based ETFs like CSI 300 and A500, indicating strong market resilience. In a volatile market, structural rotation is accelerating, and there is a need to be cautious of a potential style shift from growth to value. The current recommendation is to focus on high-growth sectors for next year, particularly in AI computing and applications, semiconductors, and pharmaceuticals, as well as sectors benefiting from "anti-involution" policies, such as new energy, steel, and non-ferrous metals, which are expected to see valuation recovery due to improved policy environments [4]. - According to Yinhua Fund, the current position in the profit cycle is low, with ROE declining for 18 consecutive quarters, although the downward trend is showing signs of slowing. The inventory cycle has also reached an inflection point. The number of sectors showing signs of recovery is increasing. Short-term trading activity has decreased significantly, with trading volumes around 1.8 trillion yuan, indicating a phase of low market sentiment. The outlook remains optimistic under the assumption of weak recovery by 2026. In terms of style/sector, the preference remains for growth over value, with small caps slightly outperforming large caps throughout the year. If recovery expectations strengthen, large-cap stocks may see a temporary return to favor. Key sectors to watch include TMT (Technology, Media, and Telecommunications), military industry, resource products, new energy, and pharmaceuticals [5]. News Highlights - In Fujian Pingtan, a new round of customs operations is entering a critical phase, with three major sectors being accelerated. The new customs operations will clarify the main island of Pingtan as a customs supervision area, facilitating more convenient customs measures. The approach has shifted from "loosening" to "opening," allowing for easier movement of people and goods, thereby enhancing the level of openness. The industrial orientation is also clearer, aligning with the construction of an international tourism island and the demand for opening up [6]. Trading Volume Milestone - The A-share market has set a new record, with total trading volume exceeding 405 trillion yuan as of December 22, 2025, marking the first time annual trading volume has surpassed 400 trillion yuan.
