- The report introduces a quantitative model named "250-day new high distance" to track market trends and identify hot spots. The model is based on momentum and trend-following strategies, emphasizing stocks that consistently hit new highs. The calculation formula is: $ 250\text{-day new high distance} = 1 - \frac{Close_{t}}{ts\_max(Close, 250)} $ where $ Close_{t} $ represents the latest closing price, and $ ts\_max(Close, 250) $ is the maximum closing price over the past 250 trading days. If the latest closing price reaches a new high, the distance equals 0; otherwise, it is a positive value indicating the degree of fallback [11][12][13] - The report evaluates the model positively, citing its ability to capture market leaders and trends effectively. It references studies by George (2004), William O'Neil, and Mark Minervini, which highlight the importance of tracking stocks near their 52-week highs for superior returns [11][18] - The report provides backtesting results for the "250-day new high distance" model across major indices as of November 21, 2025. The distances are: - Shanghai Composite Index: 4.83% - Shenzhen Component Index: 8.65% - CSI 300: 6.20% - CSI 500: 9.69% - CSI 1000: 7.59% - CSI 2000: 7.40% - ChiNext Index: 12.16% - STAR 50 Index: 16.45% [12][13][32] - The report introduces a factor named "Stable New High Stocks" to identify stocks with smooth price paths and sustained momentum. The factor construction involves: - Analyst attention: At least five buy or overweight ratings in the past three months - Relative strength: Top 20% in 250-day price change - Price stability: Ranking top 50% based on metrics like price displacement ratio and smoothness of 250-day new high distance over the past 120 days - Trend continuation: Ranking top 50 stocks based on the average 250-day new high distance over the past five days [24][27][28] - The report evaluates the "Stable New High Stocks" factor positively, citing research by Turan G Bali et al. (2011) and Da et al. (2012), which demonstrate the superior returns of stocks with smooth momentum paths compared to those with jumpy price movements [24][27] - Backtesting results for the "Stable New High Stocks" factor show 15 selected stocks, including Heertai, Sray New Materials, and Zangge Mining. These stocks are distributed across manufacturing and cyclical sectors, with manufacturing focusing on construction and cyclical sectors on non-ferrous metals [28][31][33]

Quantitative Models and Construction Methods 1. Model Name: 250-Day New High Distance Model - **Model Construction Idea**: This model tracks the distance of stock prices or indices from their 250-day high to monitor market trends and identify potential market leaders. It is based on the momentum and trend-following strategy, which has been proven effective in various studies[11][18]. - **Model Construction Process**: The 250-day new high distance is calculated as follows: $ 250 \text{-day new high distance} = 1 - \frac{\text{Close}_{t}}{\text{ts\_max(Close, 250)}} $ Where: - $\text{Close}_{t}$ represents the latest closing price - $\text{ts\_max(Close, 250)}$ represents the maximum closing price over the past 250 trading days If the latest closing price reaches a new high, the distance is 0. If the price has fallen from the high, the distance is a positive value, indicating the degree of decline[11]. - **Model Evaluation**: The model effectively identifies market trends and highlights stocks or indices that are leading the market, aligning with the principles of momentum and trend-following strategies[11][18]. 2. Model Name: Stable New High Stock Selection Model - **Model Construction Idea**: This model focuses on selecting stocks that exhibit stable price paths and consistent momentum, as smoother price trajectories are associated with stronger momentum effects[24][27]. - **Model Construction Process**: The selection process involves the following criteria: - **Analyst Attention**: At least 5 buy or overweight ratings in the past 3 months - **Relative Strength**: 250-day price change in the top 20% of the market - **Price Stability**: Stocks are ranked based on: - **Price Path Smoothness**: Ratio of price displacement to the total price path - **Sustainability of New Highs**: Average 250-day new high distance over the past 120 days - **Trend Continuity**: Average 250-day new high distance over the past 5 days The top 50 stocks based on these criteria are selected[24][27]. - **Model Evaluation**: The model emphasizes the importance of smooth price paths and consistent momentum, which are less likely to attract excessive attention and thus yield stronger returns[24][27]. --- Model Backtesting Results 1. 250-Day New High Distance Model - **Indices' 250-Day New High Distance**: - Shanghai Composite Index: 4.83% - Shenzhen Component Index: 8.65% - CSI 300: 6.20% - CSI 500: 9.69% - CSI 1000: 7.59% - CSI 2000: 7.40% - ChiNext Index: 12.16% - STAR 50 Index: 16.45%[12][13][32] 2.
