Institutional Views:
1. Huaan: The market is expected to continue to fluctuate slowly higher
Huaan believes that with the warming expectations of domestic macroeconomic policy hedging, clear stable market signals, liquidity protection, and improved risk appetite, the market is expected to continue to fluctuate slowly higher. The main driver of the current market rally is the expectation for macroeconomic policy after the negative news from tariffs has been digested. Therefore, the important meetings and policy arrangements around the end of April will be crucial time windows to observe the market changes, and it is expected that the market will continue to fluctuate slowly higher.
2. Orient: Focus on dividend sectors, import substitution sectors
Orient believes that the risks of tariff impact have not been completely resolved, and the market may continue to experience high volatility, with limited short-term upside/downside potential. In terms of strategy, it is important to closely monitor policy trends and company financial report announcements, focusing on value dividend sectors with high earnings certainty, as well as import substitution sectors that can hedge against the impact of tariffs.
3. EB Securities: Market volume differentiation, hot spot rotation may continue
EB Securities pointed out that after the market rebounded for five consecutive trading days, some investors who bought at the bottom and made profits have left, resulting in a significant adjustment in the strong sectors recently, dragging down the entire market. Looking ahead, the market turnover has continued to decline in recent days. Without new major news stimuli, the market may continue to shrink in the near future, and the structural market, as well as the style of hot spot rotation, may continue.
