Bank: the increase rate is the highest in the market.

1) the overall position proportion of the banking sector increased. As of 2022q1, the proportion of “bank” held by the fund was 4.02%, an increase of 1.09pc (corresponding to 13.83% of standard configuration) compared with the end of 2021, with the largest proportion of increased holdings in various industries.

2) China Merchants, Xingye, Ningbo, Bank Of Chengdu Co.Ltd(601838) etc. have increased their holdings by a large margin and Ping An Bank Co.Ltd(000001) reduced their holdings. China Merchants, Societe Generale, Ningbo and Bank Of Chengdu Co.Ltd(601838) increased their holdings by 0.22pc, 0.14pc, 0.13pc and 0.11pc respectively month on month, while Ping An Bank Co.Ltd(000001) decreased its holdings by 0.09pc.

Banks have been significantly increased. On the one hand, since the beginning of the year, the policy portfolio has transmitted from wide currency to wide credit, and “steady growth” has been making continuous efforts, bringing about the repair of economic expectations. On the other hand, from the annual reports and quarterly reports successively disclosed by banks, the overall performance of the sector is relatively stable and excellent, the performance of high-quality banks is stronger, and funds continue to flow in.

At present, the position proportion of the banking sector is still at the low level of nearly 10 years (about 1 / 3 quantile). Historically, the fund position proportion is also at the same or lower level in 14, 16 and 20 years. In the follow-up, with the stabilization and improvement of the economy, the valuation of bank shares is repaired and the position proportion is increased. At the end of the year 14 to the beginning of the year 15, in the year 17 to 19, and in the first half of the year 21, it reached more than 4%, or even higher (the proportion of positions at the end of the year 14 and the end of the year 19 reached more than 6%). At present, although the economic pressure is relatively large, it has been reflected in the current undervalued value of 0.61xpb. In the future, with the continuous development of the “steady growth” policy combination, it will help to support the expectation of subsequent improvement of the real economy, thus forming a positive catalyst for the sector, and the fund position is still expected to be further improved.

Insurance: the position at the bottom of history continues to decline.

1) the proportion of positions continues to fall to the bottom of history, and there is still a slight decline compared with the end of 2021. The proportion of “insurance” of fund positions in 2022q1 was 0.15%, which continued to decrease by 0.02pc month on month. The standard configuration of the sector is 1.78%, and the configuration proportion continues to be at the lowest level in history. At present, the real estate risk on the asset side of the insurance sector has been marginally mitigated, but there is still some pressure on the liability side. Therefore, it is subject to continuous position reduction.

2) in terms of individual stocks, China Life Insurance Company Limited(601628) , New China Life Insurance Company Ltd(601336) obtained a small increase in holdings, and Ping An Insurance (Group) Company Of China Ltd(601318) , China Pacific Insurance (Group) Co.Ltd(601601) 601 continued to reduce holdings. The allocation proportion of the institution to Ping An and CPIC was 0.12% and 0.02% respectively, and the holdings were reduced by 0.003pc and 0.02pc respectively.

The overall position of securities companies decreased significantly.

1) some stocks in 22q1 sector have reduced their positions. At the end of 22q1, the proportion of “securities companies” in fund positions was 1.18%, down 0.84pc from the end of 2021. Since the beginning of the year, the capital market has fluctuated sharply, the Shanghai Composite Index has fallen by more than 15%, the market sentiment is weak, the trading activity has decreased, the securities sector is under pressure, and the capital flows out.

The two leading wealth management securities companies suffered a large proportion of reduction under the condition of weak market performance.

Note 1: it mainly counts the allocation of heavy positions of active partial stock funds (including common stock funds and partial stock hybrid funds) and flexible allocation funds; Note 2: proportion of heavy position allocation = market value of a stock held by the fund in heavy position / total market value of the fund in heavy position; Note 3: standard allocation = the current market value of a stock / the current market value of all heavy positions of the fund.
