Market Overview - The domestic equity market experienced a pullback due to multiple factors, with the technology sector seeing a larger decline compared to others. On November 21, significant single-day drops were noted, leading to investor divergence regarding future market trends. The Shanghai Composite Index, CSI 300, and SSE 50 fell by 3.9%, 3.8%, and 2.7% respectively, while the Hang Seng Index and Hang Seng Tech dropped by 5.1% and 7.2% respectively [1] External Factors - Following the surge of U.S. tech giants' market capitalization exceeding $5 trillion at the end of October, skepticism regarding an AI bubble has increased. Concerns focus on the substantial capital expenditures expected in AI infrastructure, which may not yield clear returns and face risks of rapid technological obsolescence. The inter-investment and high-value contracts among AI giants create a fragile business model that could collapse if any part fails. Despite positive third-quarter reports from U.S. tech giants, their stock prices showed volatility, raising investor concerns [2] Internal Factors - Recent macroeconomic data indicates that while the overall economy remains stable, there is a structural divergence with external demand outpacing internal demand. The real estate sector, which significantly impacts household assets, has been in a downward adjustment since Q4 2021, further affecting consumer confidence. Investors are questioning the sustainability of a market rally driven solely by liquidity without fundamental support. The financing balance, a key source of market growth, has fluctuated from CNY 1.8 trillion on June 20 to CNY 2.5 trillion by October 29, but has recently shown signs of decline [3] Investment Themes - The analysis suggests that AI and overseas expansion themes are central to the current market rally. AI encompasses both hardware and software dimensions, while overseas expansion includes both manufacturing and service sectors, reflecting the current macroeconomic trend of stronger external demand compared to internal demand [3] Bond Market - In the bond market, yields on government bonds showed mixed results while credit bond yields varied. Despite the central bank's net liquidity injection, the overall funding environment remains tight. Factors such as overseas influences suppressing interest rate cut expectations and domestic real estate stimulus rumors have pressured the bond market. The Shanghai Composite Index's 3.9% drop, particularly the largest since April 7, coincided with a decline in risk appetite, yet bond yields slightly increased due to limited positive factors and unclear monetary policy direction [4]

A股三大股指集体高开，沪指涨0.36%，创业板指涨0.9%。盘面上，CPO、光刻机、算力租赁等板块涨 幅居前。 这种情况下，调仓的思路不是刻意回避AI叙事，而是尽量选择ROE底部向上趋势性抬升的品种，从这 个角度来看，适度增加对化工、有色、电新这样沉寂比较久且利润率和行业景气度在历史相对低点的行 业，是更优的选择。 另外，AI叙事只是影响了行情斜率而不是趋势。，如果未来AI叙事出现波动，的确可能会带来这些行 业剧烈的波动，但只要ROE能实现从底部开始向上的持续抬升，这种股价波动都只是短期的(相对于那 些ROE在历史高点的行业而言)，不会威胁到本金安全。 招商证券：有色、钢铁、建材是当前可以考虑布局的顺周期选择 机构看后市 中信证券：适度增加化工、有色、电新的仓位，是更优的选择 10月以来市场波动加大，但择时成功率并不高，背后的原因是增量资金的底层结构在发生变化，稳健绝 对收益型资金持续入市在降低传统激进策略择时的有效性。当前真正重要的变量还是企业出海环境的稳 定性以及AI，涉及到的是中美关系以及AI基础设施的投建进程。当前不仅是TMT板块，连有色、化 工、电新的上涨直接或间接都受到AI叙事的影响，而这些板块占 ...
