Core Viewpoint - The A-share market is experiencing structural characteristics in January 2026, with the non-ferrous metal sector being one of the most focused industries this year. The manager of Changcheng Fund, Chen Ziyang, emphasizes the importance of balancing market conditions and valuations to identify quality investment targets [1][4]. Group 1: Investment Strategy - Chen Ziyang, who has been in the cyclical sector for eight years, believes that short-term fluctuations are merely noise and do not significantly impact investment outcomes. Long-term investment requires patience and rationality, respecting cyclical patterns by investing during undervaluation and exiting during overvaluation [1][4]. - This year, the strategy includes seeking opportunities in the cyclical sector with relatively low valuations. Chen Ziyang is cautiously optimistic about gold and small metals, while being cautious about copper and aluminum [5][6]. Group 2: Market Insights - The outlook for small metals is closely tied to strategic reserves, as they are widely used in technology and military sectors. The current geopolitical turmoil has led countries to increase their strategic metal reserves, combined with the scarcity of small metal supply and no new production capacity expected in the next two years, indicating significant upside potential [2][5]. - Within the cyclical sector, the chemical industry is viewed favorably. The non-ferrous sector has nearly doubled in value last year, with institutional allocation at a relatively high level. In contrast, the chemical sector's current valuation is at a low percentile, with profit expectations gradually recovering, making it a key focus area this year [2][5]. Group 3: Industry Risks - The current rise in industrial metals is primarily driven by structural demand. However, consumption in both domestic and U.S. markets shows a K-shaped recovery. If U.S. real estate and consumption do not recover post-rate cuts, it could pose significant pressure on the cyclical sector, particularly for the chemical industry, which is closely linked to traditional economic activities [6].

Core Viewpoint - The A-share market is experiencing significant volatility, but the medium-term upward trend remains intact according to Shangyin Fund, supported by three main factors [1]. Group 1: Market Trends - The global backdrop of "asset scarcity" continues, coupled with frequent geopolitical conflicts, which sustains the long-term trend of "patient capital" flowing into the stock market [1]. - Domestic policies aimed at reducing "involution" are being implemented, leading to improved expectations for corporate profitability, which provides a stabilizing effect on the capital market [1]. - The recent rapid adjustments in market sectors are primarily reactions to short-term market sentiment and trading dynamics, rather than fundamental changes, thus not undermining the medium to long-term upward trend [1]. Group 2: Investment Opportunities - Investment opportunities can be categorized into three areas: 1. AI-related industries, where domestic policies are supporting the AI industry chain, and capital expenditure in global computing power is expected to expand, with a focus on domestic computing chains and AI in gaming [2]. 2. The enhancement of Chinese brand competitiveness, transitioning from "cheap goods" to "high-quality and cost-effective" products, with notable advancements in sectors like innovative pharmaceuticals, power equipment, and construction machinery [2]. 3. Resource sectors, particularly copper and minor metals, which possess genuine scarcity and anti-inflation properties, forming stable supply alliances and showcasing significant long-term investment value [2]. - The adjustment in the non-ferrous metals sector, which has seen significant prior gains and high congestion, is viewed as a necessary period for digestion rather than a fundamental downturn, with potential for attractive buying opportunities post-adjustment [2].
