2. Tracking Index
1) Index and Factors
The ChiNext Growth ETF (159967) tracks the ChiNext Momentum Growth Index (399296.SZ), which is constructed based on a Smart Beta strategy. It primarily uses the momentum factor and growth factor to screen for stocks with high growth potential and high elasticity.
① Momentum Factor: This evaluates a stock's price performance over a certain period, identifying companies with sustained upward trends. The momentum factor helps investors capture market trends.
② Growth Factor: This focuses on a company's profit growth, R&D investment, and revenue growth rate, selecting those with high growth potential. The growth factor helps identify promising growth stocks.
2) Sector Distribution
The ChiNext Momentum Growth Index is relatively concentrated in sectors such as information technology, industrials, and financials.

3) Stock Selection
Specifically, the index selects 50 high-quality stocks from over 800 ChiNext-listed companies, considering free-float market capitalization. This methodology emphasizes growth potential and momentum effects rather than relying solely on market cap or liquidity. The advantage of this Smart Beta strategy is its potential to deliver higher excess returns over the long term while reducing reliance on a single factor.
3. Differences Between "ChiNext Value" and "ChiNext Growth"
The ChiNext market comprises many high-growth, high-tech companies, while "ChiNext Value" and "ChiNext Growth" are two strategy indices based on the ChiNext market. They cater to investors with different risk appetites through distinct stock selection criteria and investment strategies.
① ChiNext Value: The ChiNext Low Volatility Value Index (399295) primarily uses the quality factor and low volatility factor to screen for stocks with stable profitability, sound financial quality, and low volatility. It aims to provide a relatively stable investment tool for risk-averse investors. The ETF tracking this index is the ChiNext Value ETF (159966).

② ChiNext Growth: The ChiNext Momentum Growth Index (399296) uses the growth factor and momentum factor to screen for stocks with strong growth potential and significant momentum effects. It emphasizes high growth and elasticity, making it suitable for investors with higher risk tolerance seeking high returns. The ETF tracking this index is the ChiNext Growth ETF (159967).
Therefore, ChiNext ≠ "ChiNext Value" + "ChiNext Growth". They complement each other rather than being a simple sum. Following this logic, new indices and corresponding style ETFs can be established based on other factors.

4. Investment Analysis
When the market rebounds, the following ETF selection order—from conservative to aggressive—can be considered:
① "Balanced" Broad-Based: Choose stable broad-based ETFs like the A500ETF Fund, which includes a basket of leading stocks.
② Style Broad-Based: Opt for style-based ETFs like the ChiNext Growth ETF to increase elasticity.

During market rebounds (i.e., when Beta is confirmed), the growth factor and momentum factor can significantly contribute to the returns of the ChiNext Growth ETF.
③ Cross-Sector Themes: Choose dual-strength sector ETFs like the FinTech ETF, which combines two strong sectors for balanced offense and defense.
④ Sector-Specific Themes: There are numerous sector ETFs, requiring mid-level decision-making. Fully exposing to a single sector increases risk.
