帮主郑重收评:创业板指狂飙2%,消费电子掀涨停潮,这几个信号要注意!
Sou Hu Cai Jing· 2025-07-03 17:57
先说消费电子这波爆发,那真是天时地利人和。商务部年初搞的消费电子补贴政策现在开始显威力了,买手机、平板这些都能直接打折,老百姓兜里的钱可 算有地方花了。再加上AI技术突突突往前跑,手机、电脑都在往智能终端升级,连CES展会上都摆满了AI眼镜、AI机器人这些新鲜玩意儿。就拿水晶光电来 说,人家给北美大客户手机摄像头标配的滤光片,直接打开了一个超大的存量市场,机构最近扎堆去调研,业绩自然蹭蹭往上窜。不过咱得明白,这波行情 里既有政策红利,也有技术迭代的推动,短期涨得猛,但长期还得看公司能不能把技术转化成实实在在的利润。 最后说说军工板块的调整,中船应急直接大跌10%,这让不少朋友摸不着头脑。其实这波下跌和市场轮动有很大关系,军工之前跟着政策炒了一波,现在资 金开始往消费电子、AI这些更有确定性的板块转移。不过军工的长期逻辑还在,国防现代化是大趋势,等这波调整完,那些有订单、有技术的龙头公司说 不定又会冒出来。咱做中长线的,就得有这种耐心,别被短期波动晃了神。 总的来说,今儿这市场虽然热闹,但咱得把眼光放长远。消费电子和AI硬件的爆发是政策和技术共振的结果,但也得警惕短期过热;成交额缩量是市场在 蓄力,正好给咱留出 ...
