Monitoring Equity Valuations and Mutual Fund Holdings Across Chinese Markets
Summary
This monitoring framework tracks valuation measures and fund holdings across major Chinese equity indexes, industry groups, and selected large companies. It covers price-to-earnings, growth-adjusted valuation, price-to-book, dividend yields, and fund allocations by index and industry. Index valuation can be calculated either by aggregating component-company numerators and denominators or by taking the median constituent value; fund allocation is measured as the value of holdings in a category divided by holdings across the relevant categories.
The report describes using weekly market capitalization data, periodically updated financial statements, and quarterly disclosures of the top holdings of active stock and mixed funds. Holdings are valued using share prices after the disclosure update. Historical percentile ranks show where current valuations sit relative to their own history, with a higher percentile indicating a higher relative valuation. The document outlines the data and calculation approach and names the covered metrics, but the text includes no charts or specific current readings. Its monitoring window ends in 2022, so it is not a current market assessment.
Key ideas
- The framework compares valuation across major indexes, industries, and large industry leaders.
- It uses both aggregate constituent ratios and median constituent values to measure index valuation.
- Fund allocation shares are calculated from disclosed holdings by index or industry.
- Quarterly fund holdings are valued using share prices after disclosure data is updated.
- Historical percentiles contextualize valuations but do not by themselves indicate fair value.
- The supplied text describes methods and coverage rather than specific chart results.
