Quantitative Models and Construction Methods 1. Model Name: Layered Progressive Stock Selection for Profitability Factor - **Model Construction Idea**: The model aims to enhance the profitability factor by progressively filtering stocks based on historical ROE and financial stability, ensuring higher future ROE probabilities [38][35][36] - **Model Construction Process**: - Step 1: Select the top 100 stocks based on historical ROE (ROE_ttm) [38] - Step 2: From the top 100, further filter the top 50 stocks with the highest financial stability scores, which include metrics like ROE stability, revenue growth stability, and leverage stability [27][38] - Step 3: Construct an equal-weighted portfolio with the final 50 stocks [38] - **Model Evaluation**: The layered approach effectively reduces the probability of ROE decline by one interval (5%) and increases the likelihood of maintaining high ROE levels in the future [38][36] 2. Model Name: Dividend Growth Factorization - **Model Construction Idea**: This model predicts future dividend growth by constructing a stock pool based on historical dividend stability and earnings growth expectations [49][51] - **Model Construction Process**: - Step 1: Select stocks with stable dividend payout ratios over the past three years and positive earnings growth expectations [49] - Step 2: Select stocks with dividend amounts growing over the past two years and positive earnings growth expectations [49] - Step 3: Combine the two pools to form a comprehensive stock pool [49] - Step 4: Construct sub-factors such as dividend payout deviation, sell-side forecast count, and recent financial report growth, standardize and sum them, and take the maximum value across perspectives [51] - **Model Evaluation**: The model improves the prediction accuracy of dividend growth, achieving over a 10% improvement in win rates for both the CSI 300 and CSI 500 indices [51][52] 3. Model Name: Growth Factor Improvement via Reverse Exclusion - **Model Construction Idea**: Instead of further refining high-growth stocks, this model excludes stocks unlikely to achieve future net profit growth, enhancing the growth factor's predictive power [70][69] - **Model Construction Process**: - Step 1: Start with 100 high-growth stocks based on historical growth factors [70] - Step 2: Exclude stocks meeting any of the following conditions: - FY1 consensus forecast ≤ 0 - FY1 consensus forecast is null - Consensus forecast downgraded in the past 4, 13, or 26 weeks [70] - Step 3: Construct a portfolio with the remaining stocks [70] - **Model Evaluation**: The exclusion method significantly improves the prediction rate of actual net profit growth and reduces the probability of selecting companies with declining net profits [70][69] 4. Model Name: Composite Three-Factor Portfolio - **Model Construction Idea**: This model integrates the improved profitability, dividend, and growth factors into a unified portfolio to enhance index performance [81][83] - **Model Construction Process**: - Step 1: Combine the stock pools from the three improved factors (profitability, dividend, growth) [81] - Step 2: Select approximately 120 stocks from the combined pool, ensuring industry neutrality and periodic rebalancing [83] - **Model Evaluation**: The composite portfolio demonstrates consistent performance improvement over the equal-weighted three-factor portfolio, with notable gains in the CSI 300 and CSI 500 indices [83][86] 5. Model Name: Three-Factor Portfolio + Volume-Price Factors - **Model Construction Idea**: This model incorporates volume-price factors (low volatility, low liquidity, momentum) into the three-factor portfolio to capture additional returns during strong volume-price factor periods [100][97] - **Model Construction Process**: - Step 1: Start with the three-factor composite portfolio [100] - Step 2: Select the top 75 stocks based on volume-price factor scores (low volatility, low liquidity, momentum) [100] - Step 3: Construct an equal-weighted portfolio with the selected stocks [100] - **Model Evaluation**: The addition of volume-price factors further enhances long-term returns and maintains stable excess returns compared to the equal-weighted six-factor portfolio [100][103] 6. Model Name: 75+25 Composite Portfolio - **Model Construction Idea**: This model combines the three-factor portfolio with a 25-stock pool selected based on volume-price factors across the entire market, aiming to maximize expected returns [109][112] - **Model Construction Process**: - Step 1: Select 75 stocks from the three-factor portfolio [109] - Step 2: Select 25 stocks from the entire market based on volume-price factors (growth, profitability, low volatility, small market cap) [109] - Step 3: Combine the two pools into a 100-stock portfolio [109] - **Model Evaluation**: The 75+25 portfolio achieves significant improvements in annualized returns and Sharpe ratios, benefiting from the strong performance of volume-price factors in recent years [112][125] --- Model Backtest Results 1. Layered Progressive Stock Selection for Profitability Factor - CSI 300: Win rate improved from 78.03% to 86.28% [36] - CSI 500: Win rate improved from 78.72% to 86.55% [36] 2.

1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - The Chinese economy is in a marginal de - leveraging process, with the liability growth rate of the real - sector expected to decline. The government aims to stabilize the macro - leverage ratio, and the monetary policy will generally remain neutral and difficult to be continuously loose. The market is currently affected by risk preference, and the subsequent trends of risk preference, economic recovery, and the US economy need to be focused on [2][3][7] - In the context of the contraction of the national balance sheet, the allocation of financial assets should adopt a dumbbell - shaped strategy. The bond market is the large base, and the stock market is the small head. The stock allocation strategy is dividend plus growth, and the bond allocation strategy is duration plus credit - sinking [25] - In the contraction cycle, the equity - bond ratio favors equities to a limited extent, and the value style is more likely to be dominant. Red - dividend stocks with characteristics of non - expansion, good profitability, and survival are recommended [12][67] 3. Summary by Relevant Catalogs 3.1 National Balance Sheet Analysis - **Liability Side**: In July 2025, the liability growth rate of the real sector was 9.0%, with a lower - than - expected rebound. It is expected to decline to 8.9% in August and further to 8% by the end of the year. The government's liability growth rate is also expected to decline from 15.7% in July to 14.8% in August and 12.5% by the end of the year. The money market has tightened marginally, and the peak of the money market in August was likely in the first week [2][3][21] - **Monetary Policy**: The trading volume of funds decreased last week, and the price was stable. The one - year Treasury yield rose to 1.37%, and the term spread widened. The estimated lower limit of the one - year Treasury yield is 1.3%, the ten - year Treasury yield is about 1.6%, and the thirty - year Treasury yield is about 1.8% [3][22] - **Asset Side**: After a brief stabilization in June, the physical volume data declined again in July. The annual real economic growth target for 2025 is about 5%, and the nominal economic growth target is about 4.9%. Whether this will be the central target for the next 1 - 2 years needs further observation [4][23] 3.2 Stock - Bond Ratio and Stock - Bond Style - **Market Performance Last Week**: The money market tightened marginally, but risk preference increased. Stocks rose, and bonds fell. The equity growth style was dominant, and the stock - bond ratio favored stocks, breaking through the previous high on August 15th [6][26] - **Future Outlook**: The trend of risk preference is uncertain. There are three possible scenarios: range - bound fluctuations, a short - term upward trend, or a fundamental change in the subjective weighting of Chinese profitability. A portfolio of growth - type equity assets and long - term bonds is recommended, with a 70% position in the CSI 1000 Index and a 30% position in the 30 - year Treasury ETF [10][11][29] 3.3 Industry Recommendation - **Industry Performance Review**: The A - share market rose this week. The communication, electronics, non - bank finance, power equipment, and computer sectors had the largest increases, while the bank, steel, textile and apparel, coal, and public utilities sectors had the largest declines [35] - **Industry Crowding and Trading Volume**: As of August 15th, the top five crowded industries were electronics, computer, power equipment, machinery, and non - bank finance. The trading volume of the whole A - share market increased this week, with non - bank finance, real estate, and other sectors having the highest growth rates [36][38] - **Industry Valuation and Profitability**: The PE (TTM) of the comprehensive, communication, and other sectors increased the most this week, while the bank, steel, and other sectors declined. Industries with high 2024 full - year profit forecasts and relatively low current valuations include banks, coal, and oil and petrochemicals [41][42] - **Industry Prosperity**: External demand generally declined. The global manufacturing PMI decreased in July, and the CCFI index fell. Domestic indicators such as port throughput and industrial capacity utilization showed mixed trends [46] - **Public Fund Market Review**: In the second week of August, most active public equity funds outperformed the CSI 300. As of August 15th, the net asset value of active public equity funds was slightly higher than that in Q4 2024 [62] - **Industry Recommendation**: In the contraction cycle, the equity - bond ratio favors equities to a limited extent, and the value style is more likely to be dominant. An A + H red - dividend portfolio of 20 stocks and an A - share portfolio of 20 stocks, mainly concentrated in banks, telecommunications, and other industries, are recommended [12][67]

Quantitative Models and Construction 1. Model Name: CSI 500 Index Enhanced Strategy - **Model Construction Idea**: The model aims to enhance the performance of the CSI 500 Index by leveraging quantitative investment strategies, focusing on stock selection within the index constituents to generate alpha while maintaining tight tracking to the benchmark index [3][48][76] - **Model Construction Process**: 1. **Index Composition**: The CSI 500 Index is constructed by excluding the top 300 largest stocks by market capitalization and selecting the next 500 largest stocks from the remaining universe of A-shares [43][44][45] 2. **Quantitative Stock Selection**: The enhanced strategy focuses on selecting stocks with high profitability, high growth, and small market capitalization within the CSI 500 Index constituents [68][73] 3. **Risk Control**: The fund aims to control tracking error by ensuring the daily tracking deviation does not exceed 0.5% and annualized tracking error remains below 8% [57][76] 4. **Periodic Adjustments**: The index constituents are adjusted semi-annually, and the fund rebalances accordingly to maintain alignment with the benchmark [46] - **Model Evaluation**: The strategy demonstrates strong alpha generation capabilities, primarily driven by superior stock selection rather than sector or style deviations [73] --- Model Backtesting Results CSI 500 Index Enhanced Strategy - **Annualized Return**: 9.32% for the fund, compared to 0.82% for the CSI 500 Index benchmark [48][49] - **Annualized Information Ratio (IR)**: 2.26, significantly higher than peers [48][62] - **Annualized Tracking Error**: 3.87%, indicating tight tracking to the benchmark [57][62] - **Maximum Drawdown**: 22.46% for the fund, compared to 28.77% for the benchmark [49] - **Monthly Excess Return Win Rate**: 76.92%, showcasing consistent outperformance [61] --- Quantitative Factors and Construction 1. Factor Name: Profitability, Growth, and Size - **Factor Construction Idea**: The fund emphasizes stocks with high profitability, high growth potential, and smaller market capitalization to achieve superior returns [68] - **Factor Construction Process**: 1. **Profitability**: Stocks with higher return on equity (ROE) and net profit margins are overweighted [68] 2. **Growth**: Stocks with higher earnings growth rates are prioritized [68] 3. **Size**: Smaller market capitalization stocks are preferred, as they tend to offer higher alpha potential [68] - **Factor Evaluation**: The fund's factor exposures align with its active management strategy, contributing to its alpha generation [68][73] --- Factor Backtesting Results Profitability, Growth, and Size Factors - **Alpha Contribution**: The fund's alpha is primarily attributed to its stock selection within the CSI 500 Index constituents, with a high "CSI 500 constituent stock ratio" of over 90% [73][75] - **Sector Allocation Impact**: Minimal sector deviations, with the fund closely mirroring the sector weights of the CSI 500 Index while achieving excess returns through stock selection [71][72]

Summary of Key Points from Conference Call Industry or Company Involved - The discussion revolves around the relationship between the equity market, specifically the 中证 500 Index, and the bond market, particularly the 10-year government bond yield. Core Insights and Arguments - There exists a "seesaw effect" between the stock market and the bond market, where the 中证 500 Index and the 10-year government bond yield are positively correlated. Specifically, for every 100-point increase in the 中证 500 Index, the 10-year bond yield rises by approximately 0.9 basis points [1][2][5]. - The Bernanke three-factor model effectively decomposes the yield of the 10-year government bond, achieving an R-squared value of 0.85 when fitted to data since 2016. This model uses the 7-day reverse repo rate as a proxy for short-term rates, current CPI for inflation expectations, and the difference between social financing and M2 to represent economic conditions [1][4][7]. - The relationship between the 中证 500 Index and the 10-year bond yield shows a leading effect, indicating that an increase in the stock index can lead to a rise in bond yields in the following month [2][11]. - The bond market has already absorbed the impact of the recent rise in the equity market, with an increase of about 4-5 basis points in the bond yield since mid-June [14]. - If the equity market rises by an additional 5%, it could exert an extra pressure of about 3 basis points on the bond market, pushing yields to a range of 1.70% to 1.75%. A further 10% increase in the equity market could raise yields by approximately 6 basis points, resulting in a range of 1.75% to 1.80% [2][14]. Other Important but Possibly Overlooked Content - Different equity indices have varying degrees of influence on the 10-year bond yield. The 中证 1,000 and 中证 2000 indices show weaker correlation with the bond market compared to larger indices like the 上证综指 and 深证成指 [8][9]. - The structural integrity of the model is affected by the inclusion of large-cap indices, which can disrupt the original model's structure, particularly the impact of social financing minus M2 [9]. - The current market environment has led to a notable increase in the correlation between the 中证 500 Index and the 10-year bond yield, a phenomenon not seen in the past decade. This is attributed to stable fundamental and monetary conditions [15].

Group 1 - The macroeconomic factors indicate an upward trend in global growth and continued growth in the Chinese economy, with domestic financial conditions remaining accommodative [1] - Short-term decline in crude oil supply factors is noted [1] - It is expected that by August 2025, the domestic economy will be in the second phase of the Pring's six-cycle, suggesting a recommendation for stock allocation [1] Group 2 - The latest recommendations for the duration timing of the China bond market in the third quarter emphasize a defensive approach with short duration, while the US bond market suggests maintaining an offensive allocation with long duration [1] - The performance tracking system for A-share listed companies indicates that the second quarter reports for the CSI 300 and CSI 500 indices exceeded expectations, with the exceeding factors higher than the average of the past five years [1] - There is a focus on selecting stocks that benefit from the endogenous growth of the Chinese economy, particularly those that have shown unexpected performance [1]

Report Summary 1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. 2. Core View - A-share major indices collectively declined significantly, with the Shanghai Composite Index falling below 3,600 points. The trading volume in the Shanghai and Shenzhen stock markets increased notably. Most industry sectors dropped, with the steel, non-ferrous metals, and real estate sectors weakening substantially. [3] - In July, China's official manufacturing PMI declined from the previous month and has been in the contraction range for four consecutive months. Although the non-manufacturing PMI and composite PMI remained above the boom-bust line, they also decreased from the previous values. The decline in manufacturing sentiment negatively affected market sentiment. [3] - China and the US reached a 90-day tariff truce extension as scheduled. The Politburo meeting on July 30 did not announce more incremental policies, which was weaker than market expectations. [3] - The third trade negotiation provided more flexibility for the market, but the decline of China's three major PMI indices in July indicated that economic recovery still faced challenges. After the Politburo meeting, without unexpected policies, market bulls might take profit, and stock index futures were expected to enter a wide-range oscillation. It is recommended to wait and see.

Summary of Conference Call Records Industry or Company Involved - The discussion revolves around the investment strategies and market dynamics in the context of style rotation, particularly focusing on large-cap vs small-cap and growth vs value styles in the Chinese stock market. Core Points and Arguments 1. **Style Rotation Framework**: The construction of a style rotation framework requires selecting appropriate indices to describe large-cap, small-cap, and growth vs value styles, considering macroeconomic cycles, market structure, and economic background that drive risk preference shifts [1][3][4] 2. **Historical Examples of Style Rotation**: Historical cases show a correlation between economic cycles and style rotation, such as the bull market in the ChiNext from 2013 to 2015 and the supply-side reforms in 2017, indicating that different styles perform well in different economic conditions [5] 3. **Current Index Usage**: The commonly used indices include the CSI 300 for large caps and the CSI 500 for small caps, but the CSI 1000 is increasingly viewed as a mid-cap index, suggesting a need for smaller indices like the CSI 2000 to represent small caps [7] 4. **Barbell Strategy**: Recent trends in the domestic market show a barbell strategy where small caps and value (dividend) stocks are performing well, reflecting a narrowing investment focus among investors [8] 5. **Long-term Style Judgement**: Long-term core style judgement relies on macro and meso indicators, while short-term factors include capital flow, sentiment, and institutional behavior, which can be analyzed quantitatively [9] 6. **Challenges in Style Index Construction**: The construction of style indices faces challenges such as overfitting due to excessive filtering conditions, which can compromise the purity of the style representation [10][11] 7. **Stability of Market Capitalization Distribution**: Maintaining a stable market capitalization distribution is crucial for effective backtesting over long periods, avoiding frequent adjustments to the benchmarks used for small-cap representation [13] Other Important but Possibly Overlooked Content 1. **Quantitative Analysis of Style Rotation**: Quantitative analysis can validate subjective perceptions of style rotation through multi-dimensional backtesting, utilizing factors from risk models like Barra [6] 2. **Growth Factor Selection**: Growth factors are selected based on pure metrics such as revenue growth and net profit growth, categorized into groups to better represent extreme growth styles during bullish phases [14] 3. **Value Index Characteristics**: The value index is constructed using simple metrics like P/E and P/B ratios, focusing on accurately reflecting undervalued stocks without additional factors that could distort its representation [15] 4. **Future Reporting Plans**: The company plans to provide detailed reports on specific strategies to investors and leadership in the coming days, indicating ongoing engagement and communication with stakeholders [16]
