A股这边，惊心动魄的一周结束了，虽然绝大多数人还是亏钱的，但我估计大家的心情应该还是可以的。 以Wind全A为例，周一跌了9%之后，周二到周五连涨4天，累计涨幅5.5%左右，虽然本周还是亏了4个多点，但人的情绪，主要是被环境 的边际变化影响的，换句话说，同样是亏4个多点，如果本周是每天阴跌1个点，跌5天，恐怕大家会是另外一个心情了。 就好像你家儿子，如果第一次考试考50分，后面每次考试都能多考10分，那后面的日子，全家可能每天都和过节一样；反之，如果一开始 考80分，结果后面每次掉10分，那家里可能就不太和谐了。 今天市场里表现最猛的板块，是芯片和半导体方向 ，ETF的涨幅榜， 都被它们霸占了，A股的半导体指数今天涨超5%，港股半导体指数涨 了接近6.5%，更为重要的是，两个指数，都已经完全收复了周一的大跌，A股的半导体相较于上周五的收盘价，还涨了0.5%，港股半导体 更是涨了4%以上。 换句话说，在资本的定价里，贸易冲突和关税战，利好国内的半导体和芯片产业。 其中，主要的原因，在于今天 半导体行业协会发布的， 《关于半导体产品"原产地"认定规则的紧急通知》 ，看到紧急通知这四个字，就 知道这是临时的关税战反 ...
