However, the AI-driven technological revolution continues to deepen, positioning the tech track as a long-term core theme in the market.

Ratings sources: Cathay Haitong (as of October 31, 2025), China Galaxy (as of December 31, 2025), Morningstar (as of December 31, 2025).

Furthermore, in the first quarter of 2024, he heavily weighted the new consumer sector in Hong Kong stocks, capturing opportunities in new consumption while avoiding over-concentration risk in the AI industry chain, thereby effectively controlling the fund portfolio's drawdown risk. Data shows the fund's maximum drawdown since Nong's tenure began was -24.65%, compared to -26.54% for the Wind Mixed-Asset Partial Equity Fund Index over the same period.

**Investing in A-Shares and H-Shares, Favorable on Tech, Internet, New Consumption, and Innovative Drugs** The soon-to-be-launched Invesco Great Wall Xinyou Growth Fund will have an equity investment ratio of 60%-95% of fund assets, covering A-shares and H-shares, among others.

In terms of product structure, the Invesco Great Wall Xinyou Growth Fund adopts a floating management fee mechanism linked to fund performance, incentivizing the fund management company and manager to enhance their ability to generate excess returns and encouraging investors to hold for the long term.

Looking ahead at the market, Nong Bingli expressed optimism for the equity market in 2026, stating that the strategy will place greater emphasis on the certainty of profit growth. Regarding the current timing, he views the first quarter as a potentially suitable window for building positions. On one hand, it coincides with the season and annual report periods when most companies provide clearer operational guidance for the new year. On the other hand, following a phase of relatively active thematic investing at the start of the year, companies with clear profit growth often see their valuations adjust to more attractive levels, generally improving the risk-reward profile for investments. Specifically, he focuses on sectors including technology (such as computing power and semiconductors), internet, Hong Kong stock new consumption, innovative drugs, and consumer electronics. Regarding Hong Kong stocks, Nong believes that after a previous significant adjustment, many companies already offer attractive investment value.
