On January 5th, CICC pointed out that the RMB's appreciation against the US dollar has accelerated recently, driven by rising expectations of a Fed rate cut and the peak year-end foreign exchange settlement period in China. Under Trump's "Great Reset," with US monetary policy aligned with fiscal policy, it is believed that dollar liquidity will remain abundant, and the dollar is likely to be in a depreciation channel. In this situation, the motivation for previously accumulated foreign exchange reserves to be settled may support the RMB. A weak dollar is driving a global economic recovery, boosting domestic export growth and profits. Global monetary policy and liquidity are trending towards easing, pushing up the valuations of A-shares and Hong Kong stocks. At the same time, global funds are flowing more towards emerging markets with higher growth elasticity in search of higher returns. Catalyzed by a weak dollar and domestic policies, CICC believes that more overseas and long-term funds entering the market are expected to boost A-shares from the funding side. Structurally, the "new economy," represented by technology and overseas expansion, is expected to continue to perform well in terms of fundamentals and returns. Furthermore, driven by expanding domestic demand, anti-involution measures, and overseas demand, domestic corporate profits may improve, leading to a rebound in domestic demand sectors such as consumption.
