华金证券认为，A股短期震荡偏强的趋势可能进一步加强，基本面预期的改善可能导致A股突破上行。 一是近期A股震荡偏强的核心驱动因素可能进一步加强：首先，政策和流动性宽松是A股"五一"节后走 强的主要驱动因素，此次超预期大幅降低加征关税不会对国内政策和流动性宽松产生影响，反而可能进 一步加大美联储降息和人民币升值的预期，对流动性宽松预期有利；其次，中美缓和带来的风险偏好改 善是推动近期走势偏强的另一个核心因素，本次超预期降低关税对这个因素有进一步的更强的推动。二 是对短期A股震荡上行最大的压制因素可能大幅消减：首先，对加征关税导致的出口回落以及经济和盈 利基本面偏弱的担忧是压制短期A股走势的最大因素，本次超预期大幅降低关税可能大幅改善这种压 制；其次，A股短期持续维持偏低的成交额，主要还是对经济基本面的担心导致保险、基金及外资等机 构资金和增量资金未入市，本次降低关税可能大幅改善机构的风险偏好，一旦A股成交额放大，可能开 启突破上行的行情。 （文章来源：证券时报网） 盘面上看，军工、券商、半导体、汽车、地产等板块走低，有色、银行、家居、煤炭、医药等板块拉 升，光伏产业链、航运概念、跨境电商概念等活跃。 13日早盘， ...
