Zhongyuan Securities believes that the core suppressing factor for the current A-share market comes from overseas. The escalation of the situation in the Middle East has triggered turmoil in global capital markets, and the surge in oil prices has raised concerns about "stagflation," which has suppressed risk appetite. This has delayed expectations for interest rate cuts by the Federal Reserve, exacerbated fluctuations in U.S. Treasury yields, and created valuation pressure on global equity assets, especially high-valuation technology growth stocks. Considering that the domestic macroeconomic policy tone has become clearer, it provides solid bottom-line support for the market. It is recommended to closely monitor macroeconomic data, changes in overseas liquidity, and policy trends ### Related Stocks - [510210.CN](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/510210.CN.md) - [510760.CN](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/510760.CN.md) - [399001.CN](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/399001.CN.md) - [000001.CN](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/000001.CN.md) - [399306.CN](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/399306.CN.md) - [159943.CN](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/159943.CN.md) - [159975.CN](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/159975.CN.md) ## Related News & Research - [China April Retail Sales +0.2% y/y (exp 2%) & Industrial Prduction +4.1% y/y (exp 5.9%)](https://longbridge.com/en/news/286699672.md) - [China economy slows sharply as investment returns to contraction](https://longbridge.com/en/news/286707036.md) - [China's property investment extends decline in January-April](https://longbridge.com/en/news/286699189.md) - [China new home prices fall at slowest monthly pace in a year in April](https://longbridge.com/en/news/286697169.md) - ["F**k This $h1t!": Oil & Yields Drop, Stocks & Crypto Pop As Iran 'Truce' Holds, US Micro/Macro Strong](https://longbridge.com/en/news/285256298.md)
