Zhongtai Securities believes that the market may continue to fluctuate in the short term, and investors can look for opportunities to buy on dips during the adjustment process. From the influencing factors, the index trend this month is dominated by overseas factors, with escalating geopolitical conflicts and stagflation trading becoming the main theme of the month; the upstream segments of the technology sector have shown relatively stable performance, while the energy sector in the cyclical category has shown strong trends. Looking ahead, the market may still face fluctuations in the short term, with structural opportunities likely concentrated in sectors with independent logic and prosperity. In terms of allocation strategy, attention may be paid to the defensive attributes of dividend assets, and opportunities can be sought for recovery after the easing of geopolitical risks. The institution believes that in the context of frequent global geopolitical conflicts and weak economic growth momentum, dividend assets possess a certain degree of certainty and defensive value, making their allocation worth considering.
