📌 Today’s Perspective: Short-term Fluctuations Haven’t Changed the Resilient Core of China’s A-share Market

🍖 Chopper Says:
This news headline is quite interesting—it directly says that “short-term volatility hasn’t changed the resilient core of the A-share market.” But today there’s also news that the Korean stock market has been down 30% over three weeks, and China’s A-shares have dropped 3%—so it’s clear the market is currently quite tense. As a retail investor, my first reaction is: will the ETF I hold get hammered again?

More specifically, today the national team funds made large-scale net inflows via broad-based ETFs. That’s clearly a signal of market stabilization. If you’re holding an SSE-SZSE 300 ETF (for example, 510300), then in the short term, because the national team funds are propping it up, it may be steadier than other indexes—at least it may not drop as drastically. But a risk reminder: the national team entering the market doesn’t necessarily mean the bottom is immediately in. Historically, there have also been cases of “rescue-market bottoms” followed by continued bottoming-out. Don’t rush to add positions.

To compare: among broad-based indices, the CSI 500 ETF (for example, 512500) today may have a larger decline than the SSE-SZSE 300. That’s because mid- and small-cap stocks have weaker liquidity, and market stabilization efforts also prioritize large-cap blue chips. If I really have to choose, I think the SSE-SZSE 300 is safer in the short term. But in the long run, both indexes still depend on whether the economic fundamentals can truly recover.

📌 A-share “textbook-style” deep V: 66.6 billion in funds bargain-buying—who’s behind the plan?

🍖 Chopper says:
This refers to today’s intraday deep V on the A-share market, with 66.6 billion yuan in funds buying the dip. Judging from historical patterns, signals like “large capital moving against the trend” often appear in a stage of bottoming—such as March 2022 and January 2024—after which the probability of a short-term rebound is fairly high.

I’m inclined to be somewhat optimistic. The reason is that the capital flows show clear action; 66.6 billion isn’t a small amount. And falling into a deep V suggests institutions are taking over the shares, not random retail investors making impulsive buys. Still, one reminder: history also has cases of “catching the bottom too early,” where multiple deep Vs during the 2018 bear market were followed by further, prolonged downside.

Compare this: you can look at $CSI 300 ETF (510300) and $CSI 500 (512500). The former is favored more by institutions and tends to have lower volatility; the latter has higher upside elasticity but also higher risk. On the day of the deep V, the funds are more inclined to buy constituent stocks of the CSI 300—like Moutai or China Merchants Bank—rather than small-cap stocks. So don’t just watch the index excitement; figure out who’s actually doing the takeover.
