Details of the top ten heavy holdings of Jinglin Asset in the US stock market (as of the end of 2023)
No need to be overly pessimistic about Chinese assets
According to channel sources, Jinglin Asset has recently stated that there is no need to be overly pessimistic about Chinese assets in the medium to long term, and individual stocks can continue to be selected.
Firstly, Jinglin Asset believes that external factors have significantly eased the pressure on the stock market. Although the Federal Reserve believes that interest rate cuts are unlikely in March, there is a high probability that the second quarter will enter a rate cutting cycle, and the United States is likely to experience more than three declines by the end of 2024. At the same time, geopolitical tensions have eased in the short term, but there is still a need to focus on the global election situation in 2024, especially in the United States. In addition, the Chinese holdings of global long-term funds are already at an extremely low level.
Secondly, Jinglin Asset stated that the adjustment of the financing pace in the capital market has shown results, with a significant decrease in IPO and refinancing amounts, as well as a significant increase in dividends and repurchases since September 2023. The next step of investment side reform is worth looking forward to, focusing on policies related to flat funds and guiding long-term funds to enter the market.
Thirdly, Jinglin Asset Management pointed out that investors have extremely low expectations for policy stimulus, but the introduction of stimulus policies is approaching. Once policies exceed expectations, it will provide support for market performance.
Fourthly, Jinglin Assets stated that the current valuation discount of Chinese stocks is significantly unreasonable, about 30% lower than that of emerging markets, and has obvious attractiveness.
