In terms of institutional views,
Looking ahead, the China Securities Li Qiusuo team believes that the market is showing more bottom characteristics, but confidence restoration still requires more positive factors.
China Securities Co., Ltd.: Recent market position and phenomena show bottom characteristics
The Jiantou Securities Chen Guo team said that the recent market position and phenomena show bottom characteristics. However, the Fed's interest rate cut and domestic policy efforts will improve valuations and profit expectations, and with the base effect in the fourth quarter, the basic year-on-year data is expected to show an upward trend. Investors should seize opportunities for layout. It is recommended to consider the bottom layout based on three clues: the reality of economic improvement under the clues of equipment renewal and consumer goods replacement, the resilience of the industries related to domestic demand in the interim report, and the valuation recovery direction with the logic of self-industry expectation at the bottom.
China International Capital Corporation: The market shows many bottom characteristics, but confidence restoration still requires more positive factors
The Li Qiusuo team of China International Capital Corporation also believes that the market shows many bottom characteristics, but confidence restoration still requires more positive factors. Furthermore, they believe that since mid-July, the adjustment of consumer electronics and semiconductors has exceeded 10%, with not high valuations. Combined with the possibility of more catalytic factors in the recent consumer electronics sector, a phase market may appear.
Soochow: Brokerage sector valuation and profitability are at historical bottoms with great potential for long-term valuation recovery
The Soochow Research Report states that the current valuation and profitability of the brokerage sector are at historical bottoms, with significant potential for long-term valuation recovery. The ongoing wave of mergers and acquisitions is expected to optimize industry competition, and restructured brokerage firms may achieve leapfrog development. Based on this, we recommend: 1) top brokerage firms whose PB valuation is far below 1, pay attention to Guotai Junan, and Huatai; 2) recommend internet securities platform companies with strong performance recovery elasticity, such as Hithink RoyalFlush Information Network, East Money Information, Beijing Compass Technology Development, and pay attention to Shenzhen Fortune Trend Technology.

Banking stocks have been under continuous pressure recently. Tianfeng analysts believe that from the perspective of institutional behavior, a reduction in existing home loan rates may further increase the impact on banks' existing businesses, potentially exacerbating asset and profit shortages.
