Core Viewpoint - The article discusses the cyclical nature of investment styles, particularly the rotation between growth and value styles, and how these cycles can create investment opportunities in different market conditions [2][4]. Group 1: Style Rotation - Style rotation occurs approximately every 3-5 years, with specific periods identified for growth and value styles: - 2016-2018 was a strong period for value style - 2019-2021 favored growth style - 2022-2024 is projected to favor value style - 2025 is expected to favor growth style [2] - Structural bull markets are common in A-shares, with only 2007 being a broad-based bull market where both large and small caps, as well as growth and value styles, saw significant gains [2].
