Investment Rating - The industry investment rating is "Positive" and is maintained [12]. Core Viewpoints - The recent market focus on the upper limit of bank stock valuations is less important than the investment logic, which suggests that 1x PB and a 4% dividend yield do not constitute valuation constraints [2][6]. - The core investment logic for bank stocks is based on policy support for maintaining major risk thresholds, which supports stable earnings and dividends [6][8]. - The report categorizes bank stocks into two types: state-owned banks, which are seen as bond-like assets with stable earnings, and high ROE city commercial banks, which are expected to have significant valuation upside [7][9]. Summary by Sections Valuation Discussion - The report argues that traditional frameworks using PB and dividend yield to discuss valuations are inadequate, as the absolute valuation levels for bank stocks have been very low historically [6]. - The average dividend yield for state-owned banks is approximately 3.94% in A-shares and 5.08% in H-shares, with the ten-year government bond yield at around 1.6% [8]. - If government bond yields decline further, it could lead to an increase in the valuations of state-owned banks and a decrease in dividend yields [8]. Performance of Different Bank Types - State-owned banks are characterized as bond-like assets where the dividend yield and government bond yield spread are key pricing factors [8]. - High ROE city commercial banks, such as Hangzhou Bank and Chengdu Bank, are expected to maintain a ROE of around 15% over the next three years, indicating significant undervaluation at 1x PB [9][10]. - The report highlights that the average ROE for stable industries is about 12.1%, with a PB valuation of around 2x, suggesting that banks with ROE above 10% have substantial room for valuation recovery [9]. Economic Context and Growth Potential - The macroeconomic environment is shifting, with major economic provinces showing credit growth that outpaces national averages, providing growth opportunities for leading city commercial banks [10]. - The report emphasizes that city commercial banks have better asset quality and resilience in earnings due to their client structure, which contributes to their high ROE [10][21].

Market Dynamics - There have been instances of speculative trading in loss-making stocks, notably in 2014-2015 and projected for late 2024, which can lead to short-term underperformance for quality-focused strategies [19][21]. - Such speculative trends are typically short-lived, reinforcing the notion that long-term stock performance is driven by underlying company profitability [22][24].
