今年以来，证券行业呈现显著的绩优表现与行情背离特征：行业上半年净利润增速达64%，在34个申万 行业指数中排名第4，但前三季度板块累计涨幅仅7%，位列第22位，跑输同期沪深300指数。这一现象 需结合行业特性与生态变迁深入分析，而行业破局的关键在于业务模式重构与战略转型。 此间，券商板块涨幅与业绩背离的成因可分为表层特征与深层逻辑。从表层看，一是择时难度高，证券 板块区间最大涨幅与持有累计涨幅差值达35%，位列行业前三，择时不佳者或面临负收益；二是行情与 业绩错位，板块行情弹性通常领先业绩约一个季度，财报披露时行情已提前兑现；三是个股分化剧烈， 申万证券指数50只成分股中仅20只跑赢指数，权重超60%的前十券商仅3只跑赢，非权重标的涨幅可达 指数10倍，选股失误易致"赚指数不赚钱"。 更深层逻辑则指向行业本质：其一，业绩难以预测，自营业务收入占比2025年上半年超45%，其收益依 赖市场波动，难以通过产业趋势预判；其二，盈利强周期，经纪业务依赖市场交易热度，创新业务依赖 政策、行情等周期红利，业绩呈脉冲式波动；其三，竞争同质化，券商战略多为跟随式布局，缺乏差异 化壁垒，仅少数在投行、资管领域有特色的券商能获差 ...
