Section 1: Investment Rating - No investment rating for the industry is provided in the report. Section 2: Core Views - A-share major indices generally declined this week, with only the Shanghai Composite Index slightly rising. The ChiNext and STAR 50 indices weakened significantly, falling more than 2%. The four stock index futures also declined collectively, with the CSI 500 being the most resilient. After the National Day holiday, the A-share market opened higher, but there was profit-taking and fear of high prices, leading to a significant adjustment on Friday [6][11]. - Treasury bond futures had mixed performances this week. The current bond market has a mix of bullish and bearish factors. The economic data shows a pattern of "strong supply and weak demand," and the foundation for the recovery of effective demand is not yet solid, which provides some support for the bond market. However, in the absence of incremental positive news, the market is sensitive to negative news, and it is expected that Treasury bond futures will continue to be in a weakly oscillating pattern in the short term [6]. - The commodity market still shows a pattern of weak crude oil and strong gold. Since crude oil and gold have a large weight in the commodity index, it is expected that the commodity index will continue to fluctuate widely [6]. - The widening of the US-Japan interest rate differential has increased the expectation of a US dollar rebound. The dovish stance of the Federal Reserve limits the significant upward space. Japan's new political party is implementing fiscal stimulus and maintaining a loose stance, putting short-term pressure on the Japanese yen. The euro's trend mainly follows the inverse fluctuation of the US dollar [6][10]. Section 3: Summary by Directory 3.1 This Week's Summary and Next Week's Allocation Recommendations Stocks - The CSI 300 declined by 0.51%, and the CSI 300 stock index futures declined by 0.63%.

Bonds - The 10-year Treasury bond yield declined by 0.10%, with a weekly change of -0.18 BP. The main 10-year Treasury bond futures rose by 0.09%.

Report Summary 1. Investment Rating The report does not provide an overall industry investment rating. 2. Core Views - A-share market: A-share major indices generally rose this week, with the Science and Technology Innovation 50 Index surging over 6%. Most stock index futures increased, and large-cap blue-chip stocks performed well. The market was in a state of multiple vacuums of performance, policies, and macro data, with less disturbance from domestic and foreign news. Investor sentiment was cautious due to approaching holidays, resulting in a random walk pattern and a slight decline in trading activity. It is recommended to buy on dips [9][14]. - Bond market: Treasury bond futures declined across the board this week. The "supply - strong, demand - weak" pattern in August economic data may continue, pressuring third - quarter economic growth and providing some support for the bond market. However, in the absence of incremental positive factors, the market is sensitive to negative news. The uncertainty of the new public bond fund regulations continues to disrupt, and bearish sentiment dominates. It is expected that Treasury bond futures will continue to fluctuate weakly in the short term, and it is recommended to watch cautiously [9]. - Commodity market: The Wind Commodity Index rose 4.59%. Gold fell from its historical high due to the rising dollar but has long - term upward potential in a globally loose liquidity environment. Crude oil's trend was volatile due to geopolitical conflicts, and long - term supply pressure remains. The commodity index is expected to fluctuate widely, and it is recommended to mainly watch [9]. - Foreign exchange market: The euro - dollar exchange rate declined. Strong US economic data and hawkish signals from some Fed officials dampened the expectation of interest rate cuts, leading to a short - term rebound of the dollar. The euro was suppressed by the dollar's rebound. It is recommended to watch cautiously [9][13]. 3. Summary by Directory 3.1 This Week's Summary and Next Week's Allocation Suggestions - **Monetary policy**: China's central bank net injected 9406 billion yuan in the open market this week.
