China Merchants Securities said the risk-on lift from August’s macro- and
micro-liquidity improvement and systemic repair looks to be tapering. With few
near-term liquidity catalysts and the concentrated mid-year earnings disclosure
window approaching, the market will focus more on earnings-driven structural
opportunities. Style leadership may move from early-August growth dominance to
more balanced rotation; watch CSI 1000 and the Shuangchuang (dual-innovation)
index, with selective allocation to the Value 100 Index for balance. Insurance
institutions’ equity exposure (stocks + funds) rose to 15.66% in 2026 Q2, second
only to June 2015’s 16.07%.
