1. Report Industry Investment Rating - No relevant content provided 2.

It is recommended that investors mainly lay out long positions on pullbacks [1]. 3.

The scale of US Treasuries maturing in June - July, mainly short - term, is 1.2 trillion and 1.46 trillion US dollars respectively. The concentrated maturity and re - issuance of US Treasuries may cause a liquidity shock. The US SPCI manufacturing and service industry FINI in June were all 52.3, higher than expected and the previous value.

The annual rate of the eurozone consumer price index CPI in May was 2.2%, higher than expected but flat with the previous value.

However, since the annual rates of the consumer price index CPI (core CPI) in April were 3.5% (3.8%), higher than expected and the previous value, the market expects the Bank of England to cut interest rates only once before the end of 2025 [1]. - **Japan**: The Bank of Japan raised interest rates by 25 basis points in January, raising the benchmark interest rate to 0.5%, and has been reducing the quarterly bond - buying scale by 400 billion yen since August 2024.

Core Viewpoint - In 2024, major asset classes generally recorded positive returns, but performance varied significantly among them, with large-cap stocks outperforming small-cap stocks and gold showing substantial gains [1][3][6]. Summary by Sections Asset Performance - Large-cap stocks achieved a return of 18.24%, significantly higher than the 2.79% return of small-cap stocks [2][4]. - Long-term government bonds yielded 9.38%, with approximately 6.9% of this return attributed to price increases from declining interest rates [4]. - Newly included gold assets saw a remarkable increase of 28.19% [5][6]. Long-term Return Effectiveness - The report addressed concerns regarding the long-term return calculations from 2005 to 2024, confirming that the historical returns are stable and provide valuable reference for investors [8][10][11]. - The current price-to-earnings (PE) and price-to-book (PB) ratios are lower than those at the end of 2004, indicating that the long-term return rates of the Chinese stock market are objectively stable [10][11]. Gold's Long-term Returns - From 2003 to 2024, Shanghai gold had an annualized return of 8.98%, while London gold from 1969 to 2024 had a return of 7.66% [13]. - Gold's performance is highly cyclical, with significant returns during periods of high inflation and geopolitical risk, but underperforming during stable economic conditions [14][15][16]. Diversification Benefits - The report illustrated the advantages of diversification, showing that as the number of stocks in a portfolio increases, the average return becomes more concentrated and predictable, reducing the risk of individual stock failures [18][19]. - Holding more than 10 stocks leads to diminishing returns in terms of average yield improvement, while the volatility approaches the market's systemic risk [19]. Risk Premium Analysis - The report decomposed the long-term risk premiums of various asset classes, indicating that all risk premiums are positive, with stocks offering the highest risk premium [22][23]. - The characteristics of risk premiums in China are similar to those in the U.S., suggesting that higher risks are compensated with higher returns over the long term [23].

Core Viewpoint - The article discusses the historical performance of China's A-share market and its underlying patterns, comparing them with the U.S. stock market, and emphasizes the importance of long-term data in guiding investment decisions [1][2][16]. Group 1: Historical Performance and Patterns - The historical annualized return of China's A-share market from 2004 to 2023 is reported at 9.61%, which some believe is inflated due to the low starting point in 2004 [10]. - The analysis shows that 2004 was not the historical low point for A-share valuations, as both P/E and P/B ratios were higher in 2004 than in 2024, indicating that returns from valuation changes were negative [13][16]. - The article asserts that long-term returns across various asset classes can outpace inflation, with stocks yielding the highest returns, closely tied to economic growth [16][18]. Group 2: Investment Opportunities and Risks - The current low performance of the stock market may represent a cyclical undervaluation, presenting a potential investment opportunity if historical patterns hold true [2]. - In 2024, large-cap stocks, long-term government bonds, long-term credit bonds, and gold have shown significantly higher returns compared to historical averages, while small-cap stocks and short-term government bonds have underperformed [19][20]. - The article highlights that 70% of the 9.38% return from long-term government bonds in 2024 was due to price appreciation from declining interest rates, raising questions about future bond yield expectations [22]. Group 3: Individual Stock Investment Insights - The analysis of investing in individual stocks reveals that concentrating on a single stock yields an average return of only 3.92%, significantly lower than the overall market return [28]. - Diversifying by increasing the number of stocks held improves average returns and reduces volatility, suggesting that reducing reliance on individual stock selection can enhance investment outcomes [28][32]. - The article emphasizes that many investors overestimate their knowledge of specific companies and the market, leading to suboptimal investment results [30][31].
