CITIC Securities' research report reveals that the quarterly reports of publicly - offered funds for the fourth quarter of 2025 have now been made public. Even though the proportion of funds allocated to the electronics industry has dipped slightly from the record - high level seen in the third quarter, it still stands at a relatively elevated position.

When it comes to sub - industries within the electronics sector, the allocation proportion of components has continued its upward trajectory, hitting a fresh peak. In contrast, semiconductors and consumer electronics have witnessed a decline in their allocation shares. Meanwhile, the optical and optoelectronic sectors have seen a minor rebound.

The research report expresses a positive outlook on the potential for excess returns in the electronics sector over the next six months. It highlights that in 2026, with the backdrop of "escalating upstream raw material prices and diversified downstream demand," investment in the electronics industry will hone in on three key areas: AI, self - sufficiency, and the mid - to - upstream sectors.

Specifically, it advises investors to keep a close eye on "storage, AI, and self - sufficiency" before March 2026. Additionally, it suggests that consumer electronics may present turning - point opportunities at the end of the first quarter.
