- The report introduces a "Three-dimensional Timing Framework" model, which is based on liquidity, divergence, and prosperity indicators. The model suggests that the market is in a consolidation phase, with liquidity trending downward, divergence trending upward, and prosperity remaining stable. The framework indicates a continued oscillating downward trend[7][12][14] - The "ETF Hotspot Trend Strategy" is constructed by selecting ETFs with both the highest and lowest price trends in an upward direction. The strategy further incorporates a support-resistance factor based on the steepness of the regression coefficients of the highest and lowest prices over the past 20 days. The top 10 ETFs with the highest turnover rate in the last 5 days relative to the last 20 days are selected to form a risk parity portfolio[28][31] - The "Capital Flow Resonance Strategy" is built using two factors: the financing margin factor and the active large-order capital factor. The financing margin factor is defined as the two-week rate of change of the 50-day average of the market-neutralized financing net buy minus the margin net buy (aggregated by individual stocks). The active large-order capital factor is defined as the net inflow ranking of the time-neutralized industry transaction volume over the past year, taking the 10-day average. The strategy excludes extreme head industries from the active large-order factor and applies a negative exclusion for the top industries in the financing margin factor. This adjustment improves the strategy's stability. Since 2018, the strategy has achieved an annualized excess return of 13.5% after fees, with an IR of 1.7. Last week, the strategy recorded a positive excess return of 4.96% relative to industry equal weight, with an absolute return of 2.37%[37][40] Model Backtesting Results - Three-dimensional Timing Framework: Historical performance indicates oscillating downward trends during periods of low liquidity and high divergence[14] - ETF Hotspot Trend Strategy: The strategy has achieved cumulative excess returns over the CSI 300 index this year[29][30] - Capital Flow Resonance Strategy: Since 2018, the strategy has achieved an annualized excess return of 13.5% after fees, with an IR of 1.7. Last week, it recorded a positive excess return of 4.96% relative to industry equal weight, with an absolute return of 2.37%[37][40] Factor Construction and Evaluation - **Beta Factor**: Constructed to measure the sensitivity of a stock's returns to market returns. It recorded a positive return of 2.63% last week, indicating that high-beta portfolios outperformed low-beta portfolios[41][42] - **Growth Factor**: Reflects high-growth stocks favored by the market. It achieved a return of 1.51% last week[41][42] - **Size Factor**: Measures the performance of large-cap versus small-cap stocks. It recorded a positive return of 1.39% last week, with large-cap stocks outperforming small-cap stocks[41][42] - **Alpha Factors**: Includes institutional holdings and momentum factors. Notable factors include "Fund Holdings to Float Share Ratio" (1.33% weekly excess return), "Top Ten Mean Stock Value to NAV" (1.00% weekly excess return), and "1-Year-1-Month Momentum" (0.94% weekly excess return)[44][46] - **Growth and R&D Factors**: Factors such as "R&D Total Assets Ratio" (22.36% weekly excess return in CSI 300), "R&D Sales Revenue Ratio" (19.32% weekly excess return in CSI 300), and "Quarterly ROE YoY Difference" (19.43% weekly excess return in CSI 300) performed well across different indices, with stronger results in small-cap indices like CSI 1000[47][48] Factor Backtesting Results - **Beta Factor**: Annual return of 27.16%, monthly return of 2.83%, weekly return of 2.63%[42] - **Growth Factor**: Annual return of -0.45%, monthly return of 4.73%, weekly return of 1.51%[42] - **Size Factor**: Annual return of -23.40%, monthly return of 4.72%, weekly return of 1.39%[42] - **Alpha Factors**: Weekly excess returns range from 0.56% to 1.33%, with monthly excess returns ranging from 1.79% to 3.68%[44][46] - **Growth and R&D Factors**: Weekly excess returns in CSI 300 range from 13.71% to 22.36%, with higher returns observed in smaller-cap indices like CSI 1000[47][48]
