Policy and liquidity support, including the release of consumption-boosting policies and a net injection of 700 billion yuan by the central bank, which helped stabilize market expectations [7] 2. Optimized funding structure, with northbound capital showing a net inflow of 32.68 billion yuan on the day and a total of 234.68 billion yuan for the week, indicating confidence from long-term investors [8] 3. Strong fundamentals and valuation advantages, with an overall earnings growth forecast of 42.3% for A-shares, particularly in sectors like non-ferrous metals and petrochemicals, which have growth rates exceeding 60% [9] 4. Strong risk isolation capabilities, as the decline in the precious metals sector was seen as a localized adjustment rather than a systemic risk for A-shares [10] Group 3: Market Outlook and Strategy - The A-share market is expected to experience minor fluctuations due to external influences and pre-holiday liquidity concerns, but these do not indicate a "crash" [14] - Investors are advised to focus on stable sectors such as consumer goods and state-owned enterprises, while avoiding high-risk areas like precious metals and high-leverage sectors [12]
