Institutional Views:
Looking ahead, Huatai believes that in the current policy window, investors should not be overly concerned about short-term fluctuations. Market adjustments may present buying or switching opportunities.
CICC: Short-term funding impact cannot be ignored
CICC points out that the A-share market is currently in a relatively active state historically, with new investors and financing as the main incremental funds. With existing institutional investors not significantly increasing their positions during the recent rise, the market may have good support from a funding perspective, supporting a volatile uptrend. However, considering the significant accumulated gains in the previous period, with major indices nearing previous highs and trading zones, as well as external pressures, short-term profit-taking and volatility could occur due to fund concentration, which is a normal occurrence during consolidation periods in history, without changing the mid-term trend. Looking ahead, after policy expectations are reversed, attention should be paid to the transmission of policy implementation on fundamental improvements.
EB SECURITIES: Funds may switch between high and low, finding new leading sectors at relatively low levels
EB SECURITIES stated that on Thursday, some funds took profits, causing high and strong stocks to fall, leading to a market-wide adjustment. Looking ahead, after another round of market-wide declines, market sentiment has cooled, especially among high-priced stocks that have seen significant sell-off; the market may need time to digest the sell-off of high-priced stocks; and funds may switch between high and low, finding new leading sectors at relatively low levels.
Huatai: If trading volume fails to recover, the short-term correction period may be extended
Huatai believes that looking at the A-share market on Thursday, market sentiment was weak, reflected in shrinking trading volume with turnover falling below 2 trillion yuan. Market speculation on hot sectors also cooled. The market showed a downward trend in the afternoon, with little resistance from the bulls, leading the Shanghai Composite Index below 3400 points and below the 10-day moving average. Currently, trading volume remains key, and if trading volume fails to recover later, the short-term correction period may be extended.
