Before the beginning of September, the focus will be on securities, insurance, military, and rare earths. The pharmaceutical and overseas computing power scarcity sectors are still expected to have momentum. The key is to build a price alliance in China's manufacturing sector, especially in the areas of photovoltaics, chemicals, and key parts of some electrical machinery. 2. Huatai: Currently in the mid-term bull market Huatai believes that the market is currently in the mid-term of a bull market. The structural features of this year's uptrend market show that sector rotation is fast-paced and difficult to grasp the rhythm. This year's slow bull market has shown a slow rise and sharp fall characteristic, which can help prolong the uptrend cycle and favor the formation of a slow bull market. 3. Orient: No major adjustment risk for stock indices in August Orient believes that this round of the market shows a "local breakthrough, multi-point flowering" characteristic, and opportunities in various industries, sectors, and themes will continue to rotate. In the short term, there is no major adjustment risk for stock indices in August, but one should be cautious about the impact of high-rise stocks if the market experiences a pullback. It is recommended to continue focusing on trends in technology self-reliance, innovative drugs, military, Siasun Robot & Automation, etc.
