The trading volume of each contract increased month - on - month, and the basis of each variety weakened significantly [4] 1.2 Basis Strategy - The basis weakened due to market sentiment. IH remained at a premium, IF at a shallow discount, and IC and IM at a deep discount. The current hedging demand in stock index futures is still mainly short - side. It is expected that the deep discount pattern of IC and IM will continue.

Among the commodity factors, the volume - price trend factors and value factors performed prominently, while the spot - futures basis factors and warehouse receipt factors declined by more than 0.5%. The overall commodity trend may still be highly volatile due to external macro - factor disturbances. Compared with short - cycle strategies, medium - and long - cycle trend - following CTA strategies may face certain risks [71] 3.2 Tracking Strategy Performance - Different strategies have different performance indicators such as annualized return, Sharpe ratio, Calmar ratio, and maximum drawdown. For example, the CWFT strategy has an annualized return of 9.3%, a Sharpe ratio of 1.58, and a maximum drawdown of - 8.81% [71]

Core Viewpoint - The recent rise of A-shares above 3800 points presents an opportunity for investors to reassess their portfolios, emphasizing the importance of a diversified asset allocation strategy to navigate market volatility and potential downturns [4][6]. Group 1: Market Sentiment and Fund Performance - Despite the current bullish market sentiment and many funds reaching historical highs, a significant number of investors redeemed their holdings before the market's upswing, leading to missed opportunities [6]. - Data indicates that from 2022 to 2024, the net subscription scale of equity funds has continuously shrunk, with net redemptions peaking in the first quarter and fourth quarter of 2024 [6]. Group 2: Volatility and Historical Performance - The Shanghai Composite Index has a compound annual growth rate of 11.6% since its inception in 1990, but it also has an annualized volatility of 43.71%, which is significantly higher than many global indices [10][11]. - Since 2014, the annual maximum drawdown for the CSI 300 and equity fund indices has exceeded 15% in about 60% of the years, highlighting the challenges of long-term holding for domestic investors [12].

Group 4: Asset Allocation Strategies - Given the high volatility of the A-share market, a diversified asset allocation strategy is recommended to mitigate risks and enhance returns [22]. - Different asset classes exhibit varying risk-return characteristics, and combining low or negatively correlated assets can help reduce overall portfolio volatility [22][24]. Group 5: Simulation of Asset Allocation - Simulations show that adjusting the asset allocation to include dividend stocks and global indices can lead to smoother net value curves and reduced drawdowns during market downturns [30][32]. - Incorporating bonds into the asset mix further stabilizes the portfolio, increasing the likelihood of maintaining positions during market fluctuations [35][37]. Group 6: Importance of Diversification - Diversification in asset allocation is emphasized as a crucial strategy for investors, with notable figures in finance advocating for a mix of uncorrelated return streams to enhance portfolio performance [38].

Core Viewpoint - The article emphasizes the importance of constructing a diversified asset allocation strategy to navigate the volatility of the A-share market, especially as it recently surpassed the 3800-point mark. Investors should prepare for both gains and losses, as the market does not guarantee a one-way upward journey [2]. Group 1: Market Sentiment and Investor Behavior - Despite the current bullish sentiment and many funds reaching historical highs, numerous investors redeemed their holdings before the market's rise. Data shows that from 2022 to 2024, the net subscription scale of equity funds continuously shrank, with significant net redemptions in the first and fourth quarters of 2024 [3][4]. - Many investors did not endure the market downturn alongside their funds, resulting in missed opportunities for recent gains [3]. Group 2: Market Volatility and Challenges - The Shanghai Composite Index has a compound annual growth rate of 11.6% since its inception in 1990, but it also has an annualized volatility of 43.71%, which is significantly higher than many other global indices [7]. - Since 2014, the annual maximum drawdown for the CSI 300 and equity fund indices has exceeded 15% in about 60% of the years, with the ChiNext Index experiencing over 15% drawdowns every year since 2014 [8][9].

Missing just a few of the best-performing days can drastically reduce annualized returns [11][14]. - From 2014 to the present, holding equity funds consistently yields an average annual return of around 15%, but missing the top-performing days can lead to significantly lower or even negative returns [14][16]. Group 4: Asset Allocation Strategies - The article suggests that different asset types have varying risk-return characteristics, and a reasonable asset allocation can help reduce portfolio volatility and alleviate the need for timing the market [20]. - Simulations show that adjusting asset allocations, such as incorporating dividend assets and global indices, can lead to smoother net value curves and reduced drawdowns during market declines [24][26][30]. - A final portfolio that includes a mix of equity funds, dividend indices, global indices, gold, and bonds demonstrates significantly improved performance and reduced volatility compared to a portfolio solely invested in equity funds [33][35]. Group 5: Importance of Diversification - The article highlights that diversification in asset allocation is crucial for investors, as it provides the necessary resilience to endure market downturns and ultimately benefit from long-term gains [36]. - The concept of diversification as a "free lunch" in investing is supported by notable figures in finance, emphasizing the need for a well-rounded investment approach [37].

Core Viewpoint - The article discusses the increasing interest in mixed equity and fixed income products, particularly the "fixed income +" products, as investors seek absolute returns while benefiting from equity markets. The focus is on the performance of the Huaxia Hope Bond managed by Wu Fan, which has seen significant institutional investment and strong returns while maintaining low volatility [1][2]. Group 1: Product Performance - The Huaxia Hope Bond received 4.1 billion yuan in institutional investment in 2024, ranking among the top three fixed income + products for institutional investors [1]. - The product achieved a maximum drawdown of less than 1% and an absolute return of 6.43% [1][22]. - Wu Fan's management strategy includes maintaining a low equity position (within 10%) to control volatility while achieving good returns [1][2]. Group 2: Investment Strategy - Wu Fan's investment approach is characterized by a top-down timing strategy, which has been a significant source of excess returns [1][9]. - The strategy includes avoiding high-valuation assets and focusing on low-valuation convertible bonds and stocks [2][4]. - The investment framework combines macroeconomic analysis with individual security selection, allowing for effective market timing and asset allocation [5][11]. Group 3: Market Insights - The article highlights the differences in volatility between domestic stocks and bonds, noting that domestic stocks exhibit higher volatility due to a larger proportion of retail investors [6][26]. - Wu Fan emphasizes the importance of dynamic asset allocation in response to changing market conditions, moving beyond a simple stock-bond mix to a more nuanced strategy [7][20]. - The current investment environment is described as a transition from a basic stock-bond mix to a more sophisticated strategy that includes low, medium, and high volatility products [7][20]. Group 4: Future Outlook - Wu Fan anticipates that the market will remain in a state of fluctuation, with macroeconomic fundamentals stabilizing but not yet entering a strong recovery phase [25][26]. - The focus on dividend-paying assets is expected to grow, particularly in a low-interest-rate environment, with an emphasis on selecting specific markets and sectors for investment [27][20]. - The article concludes with a recognition of the challenges posed by increasing institutionalization of the market and the need for active management to achieve excess returns [29].
