1. Report Industry Investment Rating - No relevant information provided 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - Today, all stock indices fluctuated and consolidated. The total trading volume of the Shanghai, Shenzhen, and Beijing stock markets throughout the day was 1964.8 billion yuan, a decrease of 49.1 billion yuan compared to the previous day. In the short term, the fermentation rhythm of policy - favorable expectations and the profit - taking rhythm of funds are in a game, and the stock indices are in a volatile and repeated market. In the medium and long term, the policy - favorable expectations and the trend of capital inflow into the stock market together form strong support for the stock indices. Especially next year is the beginning of the "15th Five - Year Plan", and the policy - favorable expectations support the stock indices to rise in the medium and long term. However, the incremental policy signals have weakened in the short term. As the stock valuation has risen significantly, the willingness of profit - making funds to take profits has increased, and the stock indices technically need to consolidate. Overall, with multiple factors at play, the stock indices will mainly fluctuate within a range in the short term. Currently, the implied volatility of options is at a relatively low historical quantile level. Considering the medium - and long - term upward trend of the stock indices, the idea of maintaining a bull spread is recommended [3]. 3.
