Investment Rating - The industry investment rating is "Positive" [1] Core Viewpoints - Shenhua plans to acquire group assets, and coal prices are expected to rise in August. Domestic power plants maintain daily coal consumption, leading to continued price increases. The coal association has advocated for controlling production and improving quality, while the Central Financial Committee emphasized the need to regulate low-price competition and promote the orderly exit of backward production capacity. The coking coal sector may see marginal improvements in performance due to environmental factors affecting capacity utilization, with supply and demand gradually balancing in the second half of the year [6][42]. Summary by Sections Coal Market Performance - The coal sector declined, underperforming the CSI 300 index by 2.81 percentage points, with a drop of 4.56% as of August 1, 2025.

Group 1: Report's Investment Rating on the Industry - Not provided in the given content Group 2: Core Viewpoints of the Report - Since 2024, there have been continuous catalysts on both the supply and demand sides of the chemical sector. The current "anti - involution" market adds to its momentum. The chemical convertible bond market is still promising in the future, with positive fundamentals, favorable debt - conversion measures, and the "asymmetry" of small - cap convertible bonds [1][15] Group 3: Summary According to Relevant Catalogs 1. Characteristics of Chemical Convertible Bonds - **Issued at the Cycle Peak**: Over half of the chemical convertible bonds were issued during the 2020 - 2021 chemical bull market, often at the end or after the bull market. This leads to high conversion prices, difficult price - downward revisions, and concerns about credit risks. Bonds issued at the cycle bottom also have their own disadvantages [16] - **Mostly Small - cap Bonds and Small - market - value Targets**: Chemical convertible bonds are mostly small - cap bonds under 1 billion yuan. Small - cap and high - rated bonds are more likely to become bull bonds due to factors such as the company's solvency, institutional investment preferences, and market conditions [17] - **Low Institutional Attention on Underlying Stocks**: The proportion of chemical stocks and convertible bonds in the overall public fund net worth is relatively low, indicating weak short - selling power and accumulating long - buying factors [20] - **Rapid and Short - lived Market**: For chemical targets with strong cyclical characteristics, the market is often rapid and short - lived. Convertible bonds in this category are cautious about forced redemptions to avoid losing debt - conversion opportunities [26] - **Positive Debt - conversion Measures**: Many bonds issued during the 200 - 2021 bull market are now approaching the put - back period, so chemical companies are more active in debt - conversion. "Downward revision" is a powerful debt - conversion tool for near - maturity convertible bonds [27] 2. How to Seize the Opportunities of Expectation Differences in Chemical Convertible Bonds - **From the Perspective of the Sector**: The chemical sector has low institutional attention, large expectation differences, and potential for excess returns. It is difficult to make sector - wide allocations due to product differentiation and small single - bond scale. Many conservative funds are restricted from participating [29] - **From the Perspective of Convertible Bond Characteristics**: Below 130 yuan, the bonds rely on the "willingness to promote conversion", and the "reason for the rise" is crucial. Above 130 yuan, they depend on the alpha of the underlying stock and the capital structure, and the non - forced redemption and reduction of the convertible bond balance can open up the upward price space [31] - **From the Fundamental Perspective**: The common differences in chemical companies are "sustainability, amplitude, and performance realization". The reasons include concerns about downstream acceptance of price increases and the potential restart of idle production lines. Currently, the market is in the first stage, and the third - quarter report and spot prices are important references [35] 3. Tracking Ideas at Present - **Low - valued Underlying Stocks + "Asymmetry" of Convertible Bonds**: This is a high - probability choice. For companies with losses or small profits in the 2024 annual report, PB(LF) is used for measurement; for companies with normal profits, PE quantiles are used. Attention should be paid to market liquidity and cycle bottom judgment [39] - **Low - inventory Varieties**: Varieties with low inventory are more likely to increase in price when affected by supply or demand changes. Some chemical convertible bond companies' products such as viscose filament, silicone DMC, etc., have relatively low inventory and high operating rates. Attention should be paid to subsequent catalysts [42] - **Layout in Growth Sectors**: With the emergence of new downstream industrial trends, many chemical companies are actively deploying new products, which can bring opportunities for "valuation expansion" and new demand. Attention should be paid to technological breakthroughs and performance realization [44] - **Select Targets with Bargaining Power**: Companies with simple main businesses and good industry structures, as well as those with technological or industrial - chain advantages, are more likely to benefit from price increases and cost advantages [45] - **Seek the Bottom - position Attributes of Large - cap Convertible Bonds of Leading Blue - chip Stocks**: In 2025, the scale of financial bonds has shrunk significantly, while the participation in convertible bond assets has increased. Funds are looking for large - scale, low - risk convertible bonds as bottom - position assets [48] - **Emphasize the Elasticity of Small - market - value and Small - cap Bonds**: The "shell resource value" has become prominent. Small - cap convertible bonds can bring good returns in a trending market, but their performance is affected by factors such as market liquidity, credit risks, and economic expectations [49]

Market Overview - The market continues to operate in an upward trend, with the core observation variable being whether the market's profit-making effect can be sustained. As long as the profit-making effect is positive, incremental capital is expected to continue entering the market. Currently, the WIND All A trend line is around 5400 points, with a profit-making effect value of 4.09%, which is significantly positive. Even in the face of short-term fluctuations, it is recommended to hold patiently or increase positions on dips [1][3][8].

The CSI 300 Enhanced strategy has an excess benchmark of 0.31% this week, with a cumulative excess return of 16.82% for the year. The net profit gap strategy has an excess benchmark of -1.68% this week, with a cumulative absolute return of 35.72% for the year [1][9][13]. Sector Recommendations - In terms of industry allocation, the mid-term perspective continues to recommend sectors that are experiencing a turnaround, including Hong Kong innovative drugs, Hong Kong securities, and Hang Seng consumption. The upward trend remains intact. The TWO BETA model continues to recommend the technology sector, focusing on military industry, AI applications, and solid-state batteries. Overall, in the upward trend, attention should be paid to high-elasticity sectors such as brokerages and technology [2][3][8]. Valuation Indicators - The overall PE of the WIND All A index is around the 70th percentile, indicating a medium level, while the PB is around the 30th percentile, indicating a relatively low level. Based on short-term trend assessments, the absolute return products with WIND All A as the stock allocation subject are recommended to have an 80% position [4][6]. Market Dynamics - The timing system signals show that the distance between the 20-day and 120-day moving averages continues to expand, with the latest data showing the 20-day line at 5437 and the 120-day line at 5168 points. The difference between the two lines has increased from 4.04% last week to 5.21%, with an absolute value significantly greater than 3%. The market continues to operate in an upward trend [3][8].

Quantitative Models and Construction 1. Model Name: Timing System Model - **Model Construction Idea**: This model uses the distance between the short-term moving average (20-day) and the long-term moving average (120-day) of the WIND All A Index to determine the market trend. If the short-term moving average is above the long-term moving average and the absolute distance exceeds 3%, the market is considered to be in an upward trend[2][10][16] - **Model Construction Process**: 1. Calculate the 20-day moving average (short-term) and the 120-day moving average (long-term) of the WIND All A Index 2. Compute the percentage difference between the two moving averages: $ \text{Distance} = \frac{\text{20-day MA} - \text{120-day MA}}{\text{120-day MA}} \times 100\% $ - 20-day MA: Short-term moving average - 120-day MA: Long-term moving average 3. If the distance is greater than 3% and the short-term moving average is above the long-term moving average, the market is in an upward trend[2][10][16] - **Model Evaluation**: The model effectively identifies upward market trends and provides a clear signal for timing decisions[2][10][16] 2. Model Name: Industry Allocation Model - **Model Construction Idea**: This model identifies sectors with potential for outperformance based on medium-term trends and specific themes, such as "distressed reversal" and "high elasticity" sectors[3][11][16] - **Model Construction Process**: 1. Analyze sector performance and valuation metrics 2. Identify sectors with medium-term growth potential, such as distressed reversal sectors (e.g., Hong Kong innovative drugs, Hong Kong securities, and Hang Seng consumption) 3. Highlight high-elasticity sectors like technology, military, AI applications, and solid-state batteries based on the TWO BETA model[3][11][16] - **Model Evaluation**: The model provides actionable insights for sector allocation during upward market trends, focusing on high-growth and high-elasticity sectors[3][11][16] 3. Model Name: Position Management Model - **Model Construction Idea**: This model determines the optimal stock allocation ratio based on valuation levels and short-term market trends[3][11] - **Model Construction Process**: 1. Assess the valuation levels of the WIND All A Index using PE and PB metrics 2. Combine valuation levels with short-term market trends to recommend stock allocation ratios 3. Current recommendation: Allocate 80% of absolute return products to stocks based on the WIND All A Index[3][11] - **Model Evaluation**: The model provides a systematic approach to managing stock positions, balancing valuation levels and market trends[3][11] --- Model Backtesting Results 1. Timing System Model - **Distance between Moving Averages**: 5.21% (greater than the 3% threshold, indicating an upward trend)[2][10][16] 2. Industry Allocation Model - **Recommended Sectors**: - Distressed reversal sectors: Hong Kong innovative drugs, Hong Kong securities, Hang Seng consumption - High-elasticity sectors: Technology, military, AI applications, solid-state batteries[3][11][16] 3. Position Management Model - **Stock Allocation Recommendation**: 80% allocation to stocks based on the WIND All A Index[3][11]
