There was a change in funds at noon on June 22, and many investors discovered a strange phenomenon when they reviewed trading at noon.
The market as a whole moved slowly this morning. Most of the time, the index fluctuated very little, and individual stocks rose and fell sharply. Many retail investors had no clue when looking at the market in the morning, and even planned to wait and see in the afternoon.
But just a few minutes before the end of the morning trading, there was a sudden increase in the market volume, and a large amount of buying orders poured into the market, and the signs of fund raising were particularly prominent.
Many novices who are new to stock trading cannot tell whether this kind of late-market money-raising is short-term speculation or an institution’s advance layout.
Many people rush to catch up when they see a sudden rise, and in the end they are prone to fall into the pit of short-term decline; some friends completely ignore the capital signals and miss the structural opportunities for the sector to recover.
Let’s put aside the complicated technical terminology below and use vernacular to break down the market logic behind the large amount of money attracted at the end of the afternoon, as well as the three major sectors where the main funds are currently lurking. After reading this, ordinary people can understand the direction of the market capital trends.
1. First understand: What signal does the concentrated gold-absorbing at the end of the afternoon represent?
Many retail investors only look at the ups and downs, not capital transactions. This is where they are most likely to suffer losses.
Normally, fund buying and selling will be dispersed in early trading and intraday trading, and will not be concentrated in the market a few minutes before the market closes. When such large-amount concentrated buying occurs, there are generally two situations:
1. Institutional funds are planned for the afternoon in advance
The amount of institutional funds is very large, and it is impossible to adjust positions in an instant. In the morning, we wait and see the market sentiment, and after confirming that the market selling pressure is not strong, we take advantage of the nodes with relatively stable liquidity before midday to enter the market in batches, lock in chips for the promising sectors in advance, and avoid rising costs after the sector pulls up in the afternoon.
2. Centralized transactions of northbound and passively allocated funds
Some index-type and foreign passive funds will complete transactions in a unified manner near the closing time, which will directly drive the corresponding sector’s trading volume to surge. The intuitive manifestation is that the trading volume suddenly rises in a straight line at the end of the day, and the trading volume instantly increases.
But there is a key point to distinguish: simply pulling up the index is not a good thing. Only when the sector strengthens with the funds, can it mean that the funds are really optimistic about this track, and it is not just about pulling the weight to make the index look good.
The gold-absorbing action at noon today is obviously a targeted inflow into specific industries, not a general rise in the market. Structural opportunities have surfaced.
2. At noon on June 22, analysis of the three major sectors that were quietly ambushed by the main forces
Based on the three dimensions of midday capital flow, sector transaction growth, and news catalysis, the three directions of current capital concentration and increase each have clear supporting logic, which are explained separately below:
1. High-end manufacturing machinery and equipment sector
Mechanical equipment was the industry with the largest net capital inflows at noon today, and large buy orders continued to pour in at the end of the day.
From an industrial perspective, policies for industrial technological transformation and smart equipment implementation continued to be implemented throughout the year. Orders from upstream and downstream companies were gradually released, and the overall performance of the industry is expected to be stable.
In addition, the sector has experienced a long period of shock adjustment in the early stage, and the overall valuation is in a low range, with limited room for decline, which is very attractive to institutions pursuing stability.
Disk characteristics: Most subdivided targets within the sector traded sideways in early trading, and simultaneously increased volume and turned red in late trading. There was no differentiated market trend with a single stock rising alone, indicating that it was a sectoral capital layout, not short-term hot money speculation.
2. Computing hardware electronics sector
The long-term demand logic of the AI industry has not changed. Overseas technology companies continue to increase investment in computing power equipment, and orders in the upstream hardware industry chain continue to increase.
During this period, the technology track has been cooling down and adjusting as a whole. Many retail investors have lost confidence in the technology sector, and institutions have instead taken advantage of the adjustment to accumulate chips in batches.
As the market closes at noon today, there have been continuous large buying orders in electronic components and computing power supporting subdivisions, indicating that industry demand for capital games has picked up in the third quarter.
Remind everyone: this sector will be more volatile, it is a growth track, and it has stronger financial game attributes. It is suitable for investors who can withstand market fluctuations. Friends with low risk tolerance should not blindly follow the trend.
3. High dividend financial weight sector
Banks and non-bank finance simultaneously received incremental funding support late today, which is a dual choice for market risk aversion + index stabilization.
On the one hand, the current market as a whole is volatile and uncertain, and high-dividend heavyweight stocks have stable cash flows and continuous dividends, which are the bottom positions used by institutions to balance account fluctuations; on the other hand, if the market wants to stabilize the index in the afternoon, it cannot do without the drive of the large financial sector, and funds are buried in weights in advance to hedge against the risk of fluctuations in the growth track.
The characteristic of this sector is that the rhythm of rise and fall is gentle, and there will be no big ups and downs. It is more suitable for ordinary people who pursue long-term stability and do not want to endure a sharp retracement.
3. Practical observation ideas for retail investors to avoid common misunderstandings
Understanding the late trading fund ambush does not mean directly following the trend. Here are 3 simple and practical observation skills for ordinary investors to reduce the probability of being trapped:
1. Distinguish between one-time pulse and continuous inflow
If it only rises for a minute or two in late trading and funds flow out for most of the day, it is a short-term impulse market with poor sustainability; only sectors that fluctuate in the early trading, continue to add positions in the late trading, and have small net inflows of funds for many consecutive days can have sustained market conditions.
2. Don’t just focus on the sector to chase highs
Even if the main force is lurking in a certain track, the internal subdivisions will rotate and differentiate. Don’t just jump in when the sector is rising. Observe more industry news and order data in the subdivisions for reference.
3. Distinguish your own risk tolerance
Manufacturing and finance are relatively stable, and computing power electronic fluctuations are relatively high. Pay attention to the track according to the loss range you can accept, and don’t follow the trend and pay attention to what others are optimistic about.
4. A brief outlook on the market outlook
Judging from the capital structure at noon today, the market has not seen a comprehensive incremental entry. It is still a structurally differentiated market, and there is no basis for a comprehensive rise.
Next, the market will most likely maintain the rhythm of oscillation and rotation, and funds will switch back and forth between stable weighting, growth manufacturing, and technology hardware. Opportunities will be concentrated in subdivided tracks with industrial support and continuous capital inflows. It is difficult for a general rise in the market to occur in the short term.
For most financial novices, there is no need to frequently monitor the market every day. Instead, they focus on tracking changes in industry prosperity where funds continue to increase, and then observe opportunities when sectors adjust. Sectors that are chasing late gains are prone to short-term correction pressures.
