Summary by Relevant Catalogs 3.1 Why the Current Bull Market Started in Early 2024 - From the definition of trends, the bear - to - bull conversion was completed in February 2024, which is also the case for other indices [10]. 3.2 Driving Forces of the Bull Market 3.2.1 Cyclical Recovery and Improved Expectations of the Macro - Economy - The fundamentals are still not optimistic, facing great pressure. For example, the growth rate of industrial added value has rebounded, but the growth rate of major industrial product output remains low; the growth rate of fixed asset investment continues to decline; the growth rate of total retail sales of consumer goods has declined, and consumer confidence is hovering at a low level; the inflation situation is continuously weak; the unemployment rate has risen seasonally; the manufacturing PMI has been continuously weak; production is strong while demand is weak, and inventories are increasing; the PMI of the construction and service industries is at a low level; the export situation is expected to deteriorate [13][14][19]. - There are also many positive signals. China's share of global exports is increasing, and the new "new three" products (robots, artificial intelligence, and innovative drugs) are emerging. The chip export is increasing year by year, and the chip import - export deficit is gradually shrinking. The production and sales of automobiles have increased, and the export volume has exceeded the sum of Germany and Japan. The production and sales of excavators have improved. The profitability of industrial enterprises above a designated size has improved month - on - month [60][61][65]. 3.2.2 Policy Support - Fiscal policy is loose. The government department's leverage ratio is relatively low and there is still room to increase leverage. Various consumption subsidies are likely to continue in some form, and other measures such as increasing the deficit scale and transfer payment intensity will be implemented [81]. - The Fed's interest rate cut provides room for domestic interest rate cuts. The 7 - day reverse repurchase rate has remained low for a long time, and the capital supply will continue to be loose. The capital interest rate still has room to decline [83][84]. - The stock market's rise can stimulate economic growth, help economic transformation, improve the corporate financing environment, relieve debt pressure, and enhance international competitiveness [88]. 3.2.3 Technological Progress - Technologies such as artificial intelligence and robotics represented by the open - source DeepSeek artificial intelligence large - model and Unitree Technology may be first applied in China. The chip industry chain is the last important short - board before China becomes a technological super - power. Technological progress will bring a bull market [89]. 3.2.4 Shift of Asset Allocation Directions - Overseas funds are flowing in. As the pressure on the US dollar to depreciate increases and the US stock market is at a record high with high correction pressure, overseas investors' expectations for A - shares have improved, resulting in an increase in the surplus of foreign exchange settlement and sales [92]. - Residents are shifting from real estate to the stock market. The demand for "speculating in real estate" temporarily does not exist. The real estate is still in the bottom - building process, and the ratio of the stock market's total market value to residents' deposits is still at a low level, with great room for improvement [101][103]. 3.3 Index Valuation - The overall index position is not high, but the valuation is relatively high. This is mainly because the current macro - economy is still in the bottom - building process, corporate profits are poor, and the valuation is passively pushed up [124]. 3.4 Index Seasonality - Index differentiation is obvious. There is an obvious adjustment in October. From November to December, the index continues to fluctuate upward with the center of gravity moving up. Sometimes, in December, fund position - adjustment may cause the index to fall. At the end of the year, the style may change, and the Shanghai Composite 50 will be stronger than the CSI 500 and CSI 1000 index futures. The long - term trend remains unchanged, and there is still hope for an upward movement around the Spring Festival [135].
