Quantitative Models and Construction Methods - **Model Name**: PB-ROE-50 Strategy **Model Construction Idea**: The strategy aims to identify stocks with expectation gaps in the market and enhance portfolio returns by incorporating surprise factors (e.g., SUE, ROE growth)[30] **Model Construction Process**: 1. Based on the PB-ROE pricing model derived by Wilcox (1984), a pool of stocks with expectation gaps is identified[30] 2. Additional factors such as SUE (Standardized Unexpected Earnings) and ROE year-over-year growth are used to select 50 stocks to construct the PB-ROE-50 portfolio[30] **Model Evaluation**: The strategy underperformed in April 2025 across all stock pools, indicating potential limitations in capturing market trends during the period[30] - **Model Name**: Institutional Research Strategy **Model Construction Idea**: This strategy leverages public and private institutional research data to extract alpha by analyzing the frequency of company visits and stock performance relative to benchmarks before the visits[38] **Model Construction Process**: 1. Public and private institutional research data are collected[38] 2. Stocks are selected based on the number of visits and their relative performance to benchmarks prior to the visits[38] **Model Evaluation**: The private institutional research strategy achieved positive excess returns, while the public institutional research strategy underperformed relative to the benchmark in April 2025[38] Model Backtesting Results - **PB-ROE-50 Strategy**: - **Excess Return (April 2025)**: - CSI 500: -3.48% - CSI 800: -2.44% - All Market: -4.53%[30][34] - **Absolute Return (April 2025)**: - CSI 500: -7.20% - CSI 800: -5.59% - All Market: -7.69%[34] - **Institutional Research Strategy**: - **Excess Return (April 2025)**: - Public Research: -2.92% - Private Research: +0.04%[38][40] - **Absolute Return (April 2025)**: - Public Research: -6.05% - Private Research: -3.18%[40] Quantitative Factors and Construction Methods - **Factor Name**: Percentage of Advancing Stocks (Market Sentiment Indicator) **Factor Construction Idea**: This factor captures market sentiment by analyzing the proportion of stocks with positive returns in a given period. A higher proportion indicates optimism, while a lower proportion suggests caution[12] **Factor Construction Process**: 1. Calculate the proportion of stocks in the CSI 300 index with positive returns over the past N days $ \text{Advancing Stocks Percentage} = \frac{\text{Number of CSI 300 stocks with returns > 0 over N days}}{\text{Total CSI 300 stocks}} $[12] **Factor Evaluation**: The factor effectively identifies market bottoms and overheated conditions but struggles to predict downturns[12] - **Factor Name**: Moving Average Sentiment Indicator **Factor Construction Idea**: This factor uses the eight moving averages of the CSI 300 index to assess market trends and sentiment[19] **Factor Construction Process**: 1.

Extract interest expenses and EBIT from the income statement 2. Calculate the financial cost burden ratio: $ \text{Financial Cost Burden Ratio} = \frac{\text{Interest Expenses}}{\text{EBIT}} $[47] **Factor Evaluation**: The factor highlights companies with high financial stress, making it a useful tool for identifying potential risks[47] Factor Backtesting Results - **Percentage of Advancing Stocks**: - Indicator value as of April 30, 2025: Below 60%, indicating a cooling market sentiment[12] - **Moving Average Sentiment Indicator**: - As of April 30, 2025: CSI 300 index in a non-prosperous sentiment zone[19] - **Fund Concentration Degree**: - As of April 30, 2025: Slight increase in dispersion, indicating reduced fund herding[25] - **Financial Cost Burden Ratio**: - Companies with ratios exceeding 10x include Liaoning Chengda, Yinbaoshanxin, Ashichuang, and others[47]
