Core Viewpoint - The A-share market is expected to welcome a significant amount of incremental funds in 2026, which may sustain a slow bull market. The first quarter is projected to be the peak period for the maturity of fixed deposits, with funds likely flowing from insurance and wealth management channels into the equity market, marking the most abundant time for incremental funds throughout the year [3][4][62].

By Q3 2025, the equity allocation ratio is expected to rise to 15.5%, nearing historical highs, which could release over 840 billion yuan into the market [4][6][66]. - The total amount of fixed deposits maturing in 2026 is estimated to be around 45 trillion yuan, which will likely lead to increased allocations in wealth management and "fixed income+" products, contributing over 900 billion yuan in medium to long-term funds to the A-share market [4][14][17]. - Public funds are expected to see a net inflow of approximately 230 billion yuan in 2026, driven by the recovery of fund net values and the enhanced motivation of individual investors to enter the market [4][33][34].
