长江证券指出，在国际宏观扰动下，把握布局科技产业趋势的窗口期，应对策略：1）首先，以史为 鉴，参考2018年特朗普实施关税正式落地的A股市场表现，自主可控+扩内需+稳定类（如公用事业等红 利板块）+反制行业表现较好。2）考虑到目前A股、港股和美股市场均已大幅调整，短期情绪达到较低 的位置，其中美股的波动率VIX指数攀升至历史较高位置，预计短期市场或出现阶段性反弹。3）未来 市场风险偏好的持续提升需等待国内外政策的变化，一是美国债券和股市流动性问题或倒逼美联储释放 更多流动性，二是国内出口数据若出现较大变化，或需更多货币财政政策支持，三是贸易关系的变化。 未来潜在风险点是中概股相关的金融政策，或对港股市场产生风险偏好的压制。在宏观扰动下，把握布 局产业趋势的窗口期，重点关注恒生科技指数、AI+（含机器人）和新消费方向。 公开信息显示，恒生科技指数ETF（513180）在A股上市的同赛道ETF中规模和流动性双双领先，支持 T+0交易。恒生科技指数ETF（513180）兼具新科技与新消费属性，在外围扰动下具备韧性：1）新科 技：恒生科技代表了中国AI核心资产，成分股深度聚焦AI产业链的上中下游，其中阿里、腾讯、小 ...
