回顧12月16日專欄【中銀做客】專欄中提到：中銀國際董事Niki：其實我們選擇窩輪工具的出發點，都是分析正股和市場大市情況。這段時間， 無論是美聯儲的會議方向，還是中央經濟工作會議，都能看出擴大內需會繼續成為國家的重點方針之一。所以在消費股方面，我建議大家除了關 注一些IP類的特殊消費板塊，普通的內需類股票也值得繼續關注。比如華潤啤酒（291），今天沒有什麼特別的大新聞，但股價表現強於大市， 大市今天跌了超過2%，而華潤啤酒現在還漲了1%多。所以大家除了可以買相關內需消費板塊的股票，也可以考慮用部分資金配置一些高槓桿的 認購證，來放大利潤回報。大家可能以為我們平時只聊大科技股、晶片股、商品股這些，但其實中銀國際發行了很多類型的窩輪工具。比如零售 股方面，李寧、安踏、蒙牛、華潤啤酒等，我們都有相關的窩輪產品。 給大家說個資訊，今年年初我們覆蓋的股票類別大概四五十只，到今年年底（2025年），覆蓋面已經擴大到超過110只股票了，所以很多板塊和 類型都有涉及。如果大家對任何比較特別的股票感興趣，除了買正股，還想關注它們的窩輪，中銀國際都提供了相應的參考平臺。回到華潤啤 酒，我們也有相關的窩輪工具供大家參考，比如23 ...
