Institutional views:
Looking ahead, Huatai believes that exchange rate fluctuations may cause some short-term disturbances in the A-share market, but will not change the rhythm of the A-shares themselves. The market may consolidate in a volatile manner in the short term.
CITIC SEC: The market is at the starting line of the annual level market trend, and may welcome 500 billion yuan in incremental funds next year
CITIC SEC Chief Strategist Qin Peijing pointed out that the A-share market will experience an annual level upswing trend in 2025, and the second half of 2025 will usher in a new profit growth cycle. Looking ahead to 2025, with two financial instruments in place, at least 400-500 billion yuan in incremental funds are expected to be brought in next year. Under special refinancing tools, the size of repurchases in the A-share market in 2025 is expected to rise to nearly 200 billion yuan; the People's Bank of China announced that the first batch of SFISF applications has exceeded 200 billion yuan, which is expected to effectively enhance market liquidity.
EB SECURITIES: The current upward trend in the index has not changed
EB SECURITIES stated that on Tuesday, the market rose and then fell back, with all indexes closing lower. After a continuous rise in the markets, some funds took profits, which was the main reason for the market adjustment; in addition, the strong US dollar index rose to a four-month high, causing the Chinese yuan exchange rate to fall, and with Hong Kong stocks leading the decline, which also contributed to the market's fall. Looking ahead, it is normal to see profit-taking after a continuous rise, and the current upward trend in the indexes has not changed. With the continuous improvement of the economy, the continuous issuance of favorable policies, and ample liquidity, the market is expected to continue its upward trend with fluctuations.
Huatai: The market may consolidate in a volatile manner
Huatai believes that in recent days, the US dollar index has continued to rise, putting short-term pressure on the Chinese yuan exchange rate, which may cause some short-term disturbances in the A-share market, but will not change the rhythm of the A-shares themselves. In terms of trading volume, the trading volume of both markets continues to be above 2 trillion yuan, indicating active fund activity and trading fund heat. This week, the market needs time to digest the implications of last week's uncertainties and their impact, as the Shanghai Composite Index approaches the high point from October 8th, the resistance facing the market increases, and overcoming it will not be easy. In the short term, the market may consolidate in a volatile manner.
