Report Summary 1. Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the given content 2. Core Viewpoints - Amid the disturbance of the Middle - East geopolitical situation, the stock index declined further yesterday, with the Shanghai Composite Index falling below 4000 points. The central bank stated after the market to "firmly maintain the stable operation of financial markets such as stocks, bonds, and foreign exchange." Currently, considering internal and external factors, the stock index is expected to continue in a weak oscillation pattern. In the future, due to the overall economic tone meeting expectations, multiple policies continuing to work together to promote economic growth, abundant macro - liquidity, and capital market policies aiming to nurture a "slow - bull" market, the stock index is expected to have upward space. As the external geopolitical situation eases and market risk appetite recovers, it is expected to consolidate and resume an upward trend.
