The State Council’s “New Ten Measures” for epidemic prevention were released as expected. In response to the problem of increasing the number of layers that has aroused public disgust, the notice stipulates that, except for special places, it is not required to provide a negative nucleic acid test certificate and not to check the health code. It also emphasized that infected persons should be “scientifically classified and treated”. Asymptomatic infected persons and mild cases who are eligible for home isolation are generally isolated at home, or they can voluntarily choose centralized isolation and treatment.
At the same time, the official media also released news that the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee held a meeting on Tuesday. For the economic work in 2023, it will focus on stabilizing growth, employment, and prices, and will continue to implement a proactive fiscal policy and a prudent monetary policy. Policies must be stepped up to improve efficiency, and monetary policies must be precise and powerful.
These are the clearest signs yet of an easing of the epidemic, although analysts say the road to a full reopening of the economy will be long and bumpy and not without risks if new infections or deaths spike.

Wang Xin, portfolio manager at Tosan Fund Management Co, said the easing of restrictions was expected, and he chose to sell when sentiment was high because the market had largely priced in expectations for further easing of restrictions.
Soochow Securities pointed out that,The Shanghai Composite IndexAfter the continuous increase and breaking through the 3200 mark, most individual stocks have undergone benign adjustments. Affected by the optimization of epidemic management measures, investment logic has undergone major changes, and market funds have begun to switch positions and swap shares on a large scale. In terms of operation, investors can still maintain medium and high positions, choose market hotspots for short-term transactions, and make appropriate adjustments in the direction of stock selection following the current policy shift.
Guosheng Securities recommends that the two lines of “policy-oriented” and “post-epidemic recovery” be the core direction of operation, and pay attention to trading opportunities in the digital economy, central enterprise reform, new retail and other sectors on dips.
