1. Report Industry Investment Rating The provided content does not mention the industry investment rating. 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - The overall convertible bond downward - revision gaming space has gradually narrowed this year. With the upward trend of the equity market, the number of low - parity convertible bonds has decreased, and the number of convertible bonds triggering downward - revision, proposing downward - revision, and actually undergoing downward - revision has shown a downward trend. However, as the number of convertible bonds entering the put - back period and approaching maturity increases, the gaming opportunities for downward - revision may relatively increase, and the focus should be on the individual bond's downward - revision willingness [1][10]. - Against the background of the narrowing overall downward - revision gaming space, attention should be paid to the opportunities of underlying assets related to the fundamental expectations of the underlying stocks of convertible bonds and relatively low valuations. For equities, grasp the structural opportunities in the technology - growth direction and focus on the underlying assets with strong performance certainty in pro - cyclical and anti - involution beneficiary industries. Also, pay attention to low - price and low - premium varieties among high - rating and large - cap convertible bonds [2][20]. - The A - share market is expected to have a good allocation cost - performance ratio in terms of risk premium. The convertible bond supply is shrinking, and there is certain support on the demand side. Attention should be paid to the downward - revision gaming space, be vigilant against the forced - redemption risk, and appropriately focus on the short - term gaming opportunities of near - maturity convertible bonds. Industries worthy of attention include popular themes, domestic demand - oriented sectors, and high - dividend sectors under the Chinese - characteristic valuation system [23]. 3. Summary According to Relevant Catalogs 3.1. Convertible Bond Weekly Special Topic and Outlook 3.1.1. How to View the Narrowing Downward - Revision Space? - This week, three convertible bonds (Jingke Convertible Bond, Lanfan Convertible Bond, and Yong 22 Convertible Bond) underwent downward - revision. Since September, the total number of actually downward - revised convertible bonds has slightly increased compared to August. The number of convertible bonds proposed for downward - revision in September is the same as that in August, and the willingness for downward - revision may have marginally increased [10]. - In general this year, the downward - revision gaming space has gradually narrowed. The proportion of convertible bonds with a parity in the (0, 80] range has decreased from 40.7% at the beginning of the year to 22.2%. The number of convertible bonds triggering downward - revision, proposing downward - revision, and actually undergoing downward - revision has shown a downward trend. The willingness for downward - revision has not significantly increased since the peak in February [10]. - In the future, with the shrinking number of convertible bonds meeting the downward - revision conditions, the focus should be on the individual bond's downward - revision willingness. Although the equity market may have short - term adjustments, the overall upward expectation is still strong. The number of convertible bonds meeting the downward - revision conditions may remain relatively low, but the gaming opportunities for downward - revision may increase due to the increasing number of convertible bonds entering the put - back period and approaching maturity. It is recommended to screen potential downward - revision targets and pay attention to factors affecting the gaming returns of downward - revision [18]. - Against the background of the narrowing overall downward - revision gaming space, attention should be paid to the opportunities of underlying assets related to the fundamental expectations of the underlying stocks of convertible bonds and relatively low valuations. Focus on the structural opportunities in the technology - growth direction, such as AI computing power, semiconductors, and humanoid robots. Also, pay attention to pro - cyclical and anti - involution beneficiary industries [20]. - Attention should be paid to low - price and low - premium varieties among high - rating and large - cap convertible bonds. Since the end of August, some "fixed - income +" funds have redeemed, causing short - term pressure on high - rating and large - cap convertible bonds. As market sentiment stabilizes, funds may flow back, and attention should be paid to signs of the shift in capital allocation preferences [21]. 3.1.2. Weekly Review and Market Outlook - This week, the A - share market fluctuated upward. Different sectors showed different performances on each trading day [22]. - In terms of the stock market outlook, the A - share market still shows good allocation cost - performance in terms of risk premium. The domestic economic fundamentals are expected to gradually recover, and the weak resonance between economic fundamentals and capital flows is expected to start. - In the convertible bond market, considering the impact of refinancing policies, there is certain support on the demand side under the background of shrinking supply. The opportunity cost of convertible bonds is relatively low, but the current overall valuation is at a relatively high level, so attention should be paid to the callback risk. In terms of terms and conditions, attention should be paid to the downward - revision gaming space, be vigilant against the forced - redemption risk, and appropriately focus on the short - term gaming opportunities of near - maturity convertible bonds. Industries worthy of attention include popular themes, domestic demand - oriented sectors, and high - dividend sectors under the Chinese - characteristic valuation system [23]. 3.2.
