Market Overview - All three major indices closed lower, with the ChiNext index experiencing a significant decline of 1.96%, while the Shanghai Composite Index fell by 0.64% to 4138 points. The Hong Kong Hang Seng Index opened high but closed lower. Trading volume in both markets increased, approaching 3.7 trillion yuan [1][8]. Sector Performance - The commercial aerospace sector saw a substantial drop, leading to a decline in market sentiment. According to WIND data, most of the 31 primary industries tracked by Shenwan experienced declines, with notable gains in oil and petrochemicals (1.62%), pharmaceuticals (1.21%), non-ferrous metals (0.91%), and media (0.67%). In contrast, sectors such as defense, electronics, communications, and computers lagged behind. Out of over 5300 stocks in the market, 3726 saw declines, indicating poor profitability [1][9]. Reasons for Market Correction - The primary reason for the market correction was the cooling off of previously popular speculative themes, particularly in commercial aerospace and controllable nuclear fusion sectors. The commercial aerospace concept stocks notably weakened after several companies issued risk warnings on January 12. This decline raised concerns among investors regarding high-volatility sectors, prompting some to quickly realize profits, which led to concentrated selling pressure [2][9]. Short-term Outlook - The current short-term fluctuations may present a good opportunity for allocation. Historical data from the past two decades indicates that spring market rallies typically occur, although the timing and magnitude can vary. Compared to historical trends, the current bull market has not yet reached its peak, and market sentiment remains subdued. The influx of absolute return funds from insurance, private equity, and retail investors suggests that the spring rally in A-shares has already begun [2][10]. Future Market Dynamics - As the annual performance forecast disclosure window opens for listed companies, the market logic is expected to shift from valuation recovery to profit growth. The current spring market is anticipated to be characterized by a more tradable and significant upward trend after digesting market sentiment [3][10]. Sector Allocation Recommendations - The importance of performance realization is expected to increase, focusing on core technology and manufacturing sectors. Key areas to prioritize include overseas computing power, storage, consumer electronics, and wind energy storage, which currently have low trading congestion and still present buying opportunities. Additionally, sectors like innovative pharmaceuticals and gaming, which may see fundamental improvements in Q1, are also expected to rotate into focus [4][11]. Commercial Aerospace Sector Outlook - Despite the recent adjustments and the need to digest short-term overheating sentiment, the commercial aerospace sector may still hold strong investment appeal. The ongoing developments with SpaceX and robust policy support, along with significant industry catalysts, suggest that the sector could remain active with participation opportunities [5][12].
