[Click to Register] In today's (26/10/16) morning session, A-shares showed some improvement, recovering somewhat from the previous few trading days. Yesterday (26/10/15), Middle East tensions and tightening overseas liquidity may have created periodic disruptions for A-shares. As market volatility intensified, broad-based ETFs with relatively diversified holdings and balanced coverage of domestic core assets saw counter-trend capital inflows. (Data source: Wind)

Wind data shows that since September 22, broad-based ETFs in the A-share market have recorded net capital inflows for 12 consecutive trading days (26/9/22-10/15). Among them, ETF products tracking the CSI 300 Index collectively received net inflows of 37.649 billion yuan, with October 15 alone seeing 23.686 billion yuan in counter-trend capital additions, once again becoming an important choice for helping capital build base positions in a volatile market and expected to provide relatively solid liquidity support for the market. (Data as of 26/10/15)

Along with the influx of capital, trading activity in some popular broad-based ETF products has heated up. On October 15, Huatai-PineBridge CSI 300 ETF (510300) recorded a single-day turnover of 6.665 billion yuan, a 74.11% increase compared to the previous trading day, setting a new single-day high since August 20 this year. The contrarian approach of "corrections breed allocation opportunities" may be being put into practice by market capital. In the current market environment, core broad-based indices represented by the CSI 300 Index are expected to leverage advantages such as broad coverage and superior liquidity to become one of the important tools for absorbing market volatility and seizing medium-to-long-term allocation windows. (Data source: Wind, as of 26/10/14, Huatai-PineBridge CSI 300 ETF single-day turnover was 3.828 billion yuan)

Further examining the allocation value of core assets, after the previous correction, the structural overvaluation issues faced by some sectors in the A-share market during the first half of the year may have improved. The CSI 300 Index currently has a latest price-to-earnings ratio of 12.99 times, located in a relatively reasonable percentile range of 54.84% over the past decade (16/10/16-26/10/16). In the medium term, valuation adjustments and earnings recovery are still expected to provide support for the market. CITIC Securities also noted in its October asset allocation report that according to the A-share listed company performance tracking system, the CSI 300's better-than-expected value is higher than the average of the past five years, indicating relatively solid earnings-side support.

Meanwhile, overseas institutions' attitude toward allocating Chinese assets has also shown a positive shift. On one hand, Bank of America research shows that global active long-only funds' allocation to Chinese stocks has risen from "underweight" to "benchmark neutral," ending a four-year underweight status. On the other hand, JPMorgan pointed out in its latest A-share strategy view that it will maintain its target of 5,200 points for the CSI 300 Index under the baseline scenario by the end of 2026, demonstrating foreign capital's recognition of the medium-to-long-term allocation value of A-share core assets.

Foreign Institutions: 'Overweight'!" - 26/10/12; 21st Century Business Herald "JPMorgan: Maintain CSI 300 Target of 5,200 Points by Year-End," published on 26/10/15)
