Valuation recovery sectors (dividends and finance) seeing price increases primarily due to valuation adjustments rather than significant earnings growth [8]. Group 4: Future Outlook - The current market trends are attributed more to value recovery than short-term capital speculation, with expectations for continued performance in the technology and consumer sectors [10]. - The long-term investment value of Chinese equity assets is highlighted, with a focus on sectors like semiconductors and AI as key areas for future growth [10][11].
