Core Viewpoint - The report from Guosen Securities emphasizes the importance of focusing on investment opportunities that are immune to "involution," highlighting three high-barrier sectors: monopolistic industries like public utilities and rare earths, industries with exclusive products and global competitiveness in hard technology, and sectors where AI accelerates the replacement of repetitive tasks [1][2][3]. Group 1: High-Barrier Industries - Monopolistic barrier assets, such as public utilities (electricity, water) and strategic rare resources (like rare earths), effectively avoid intense market competition and provide stable cash flow and pricing power, making them excellent defensive investments [2][11]. - Global competitive assets are characterized by technological innovation and product exclusivity, allowing companies to successfully expand into overseas markets and create unique advantages, primarily found in high-end manufacturing and hard technology sectors [2][11]. - AI-driven efficiency revolution assets are transforming traditional industries by replacing repetitive labor, significantly enhancing productivity and accelerating the "involution" process in certain sectors [3][19]. Group 2: Market Phases of "Involution" - The "involution" market is currently transitioning from the first phase (involution 1.0) to the second phase (involution 2.0), where the focus shifts from broad industry recovery to individual stock selection based on self-discipline and competitive differentiation [4][6]. - The first phase is characterized by supply-side contraction leading to a supply-demand gap, benefiting upstream resource sectors like steel and coal [4][6]. - The second phase sees a focus on high-quality companies that can achieve market share and profitability recovery through strict production discipline, while smaller firms must innovate and create unique competitive advantages [4][6]. Group 3: Long-Term Investment Strategy - The long-term strategy emphasizes investing in industries with natural high barriers to entry, which can provide stable and higher returns compared to short-term "involution" opportunities [11][13]. - Historical data indicates that monopolistic industries, such as public utilities and strategic rare resources, have shown resilience and sustained performance compared to emerging industries that have faced downturns [11][13]. - The report suggests prioritizing sectors with high entry barriers, such as public utilities and strategic resources, which offer stable cash flows and are less affected by economic cycles [11][13].
