Quantitative Models and Construction Methods 1. Model Name: Industry Relative Strength (RSI) Model - **Model Construction Idea**: This model identifies leading industries by calculating their relative strength (RS) based on historical price performance over different time windows [10] - **Model Construction Process**: 1. Use 29 first-level industry indices as the configuration targets [10] 2. Calculate the price change rates for the past 20, 40, and 60 trading days for each industry index [10] 3. Rank the industries based on their price change rates for each time window and normalize the rankings to obtain RS_20, RS_40, and RS_60 [10] 4. Calculate the average of the three rankings to derive the final RS value: $ RS = \frac{RS_{20} + RS_{40} + RS_{60}}{3} $ [10] 5. Industries with RS > 90% by the end of April are identified as potential leading industries for the year [10] - **Model Evaluation**: The model successfully identified key annual industry trends, such as high dividend, resource products, exports, and AI, which were validated by market performance throughout the year [10][12] 2. Model Name: Industry Sentiment-Trend-Crowding Framework - **Model Construction Idea**: This framework provides two industry rotation strategies based on market conditions: 1. High sentiment + strong trend, avoiding high crowding (aggressive strategy) 2. Strong trend + low crowding, avoiding low sentiment (conservative strategy) [6][14] - **Model Construction Process**: 1. Evaluate industries based on three dimensions: sentiment, trend, and crowding [6][14] 2. Use sentiment as the core metric for the aggressive strategy, with crowding as a risk control factor [14] 3. Use trend as the core metric for the conservative strategy, avoiding low-sentiment industries [14] 4. Allocate weights to industries based on their scores in the three dimensions [6][14] - **Model Evaluation**: The framework is effective in adapting to different market conditions and has shown strong performance in historical backtests [6][14] 3. Model Name: Left-Side Inventory Reversal Model - **Model Construction Idea**: This model identifies industries with potential for recovery by analyzing sectors in distress or those with low inventory pressure and high analyst optimism [24] - **Model Construction Process**: 1. Identify industries currently in distress or recovering from past distress [24] 2. Focus on sectors with low inventory pressure and potential for restocking [24] 3. Incorporate analyst long-term positive outlooks for these industries [24] - **Model Evaluation**: The model effectively captures recovery opportunities in industries undergoing inventory restocking cycles, providing significant absolute and relative returns [24] --- Model Backtesting Results 1.
