3. How do well-known institutions view Hong Kong stocks
So the question that investors are most concerned about, how do these well-known fund institutions view the future investment value of Hong Kong stocks?
Jinglin Asset said, "Hong Kong stocks are currently extremely cheap, and the room for upward is likely to be greater than the risk of downward, and the risk-adjusted returns are already very attractive."
A-share and Hong Kong stock investors' previous extreme expectations are marginally reversing. The market is expected to find a bottom in performance, the policy side is gradually recovering, and the valuation is close to the bottom. For high-quality companies that have experienced cycles, maintained and enhanced core competitiveness, it is recommended to buy heavily and hold for a long time.
Jinglin Asset said that from the perspective of three factors, investors should remain positive for the market's medium- and long-term performance. First, around the beginning of October, the transaction volume of A-shares reached the "bottom position", showing signs of bottoming out of again; second, the market valuation has been relatively cheap, and has been close to the historical extreme level again; third, some of the focus issues that the market focuses on are improving recently.
Jinglin Asset believes that China's long-term competitive advantages still exist, and intellectual clusters, industrial supporting clusters, infrastructure improvements and energy resource guarantees will surely further upgrade and iterate China's manufacturing industry, and we maintain confidence in the long-term performance of the future market.
, while the world-renowned investment bank Goldman Sachs recently stated that investors should sell S&P 500 call options and buy Hang Seng China Enterprise Index call options.
Goldman Sachs strategist team said: "Investor sentiment towards China-related assets remains sluggish this year, not reflecting the risk appetite for the rebound in the summer, while underestimating investors' sentiment towards global growth. Although the options market predicts recent volatility in China-related assets, compared with history, the volatility of the Hang Seng China Enterprise Index is lower than that of the S&P 500."
In general, Goldman Sachs generally has low stock allocations in its cross-asset allocation and has a neutral attitude towards the S&P 500, but still increases its holdings in Chinese stocks in Asia.
In addition to institutions' optimism, the Hong Kong stock market has also been positive recently.
