Market Review and Macroeconomic Outlook - **A-share Market Review**: In 2025, major broad-based indices all closed up, with the ChiNext 50 leading with a nearly 60% annual increase. Most sectors in the CITIC primary industry index closed up, with the communication index leading with an over 80% increase. The share of equity ETFs increased, and northbound capital and margin trading funds were active [9][17][24] - **Macroeconomic Outlook**: In 2026, overseas liquidity may remain loose, and Sino-US economic and trade relations are in a phase of relaxation. Domestically, policies will be more precise and targeted, with fiscal policy remaining proactive and monetary policy staying moderately loose. Growth factors are expected to improve, and inflation is expected to rise moderately, driving the PPI to recover and improving corporate profitability [27][28][30] 2. Valuation and Drivers - **Steady Return of Chinese Capital Pricing Power**: The influence of US Treasury yields on A-share valuations is gradually weakening, while the impact of Chinese Treasury yields on the growth style is increasing, indicating a strengthening of the pricing power of Chinese Treasury yields for growth stocks [33][38] - **Current Valuation's Historical Position and Horizontal Comparison**: The PE of the CSI 300 and ChiNext indices is at the 64% and 35% historical quantiles respectively, not in a high range. Compared with global indices, A-shares are not expensive. The "Buffett Index" also suggests that the A-share market still has investment value [42][46][50] - **Dividend Yield and Risk Premium**: There is a "seesaw" relationship between the 10-year Chinese Treasury yield and the dividend yield of the dividend index. Currently, the stock market still has strong allocation cost-effectiveness, and the benchmark scenario for the index's upward drive in 2026 is expected to shift from valuation-driven to earnings-driven [53][59][63] - **Earnings Growth as a Strong Support for Relatively Strong Indices**: Earnings growth supports the relative strength of corresponding indices. In 2025, the earnings and revenue of small-cap and growth-style indices recovered faster, corresponding to the market style of small-cap growth [64][67][70] 3. Investor Structure and Basis Central Tendency Outlook - **2025 Basis Review**: In 2025, the basis central tendency of most futures index varieties continued to decline, with increased volatility in April. The influence of investor structure changes on the basis is significant, with the basis weakening in the first quarter and the basis central tendency of IC and IM contracts being lower than in previous years in the second half of the year [80] - **Changes in the Position of Public Funds in the Market Investor Structure**: Since 2022, the long-hedging power of public funds has gradually emerged and is currently stronger than the short-hedging power [88] - **Impact of Off-exchange Product Hedging on the Futures Index Basis**: The scale of off-exchange derivatives represented by snowball products decreased significantly in 2025, and their hedging impact is weaker than in the past two years. The long-substitution strategy of public funds is gradually emerging, and the relaxation of the futures index position limit of public funds may make them an important variable in observing the futures index investor structure [79][90] 4. Operation Outlook and Response - **Operation Outlook Scenario Analysis and Market Characteristics**: The benchmark scenario for the 2026 market is that the equity market shifts from valuation-driven to earnings-driven. There are also three other scenarios: earnings and valuation double-driven strength, valuation drag on weakness, and double weakness in earnings and valuation with risk warnings [114][118][119] - **Response Strategies under Different Scenarios**: Under the benchmark scenario, consider long-hedging when the basis is relatively weak. In the stronger scenario, reduce short-hedging. In the weaker scenario, lock in lower short-hedging costs. In the double-weak scenario, increase short-hedging [121][122]
