**Equity Products: Covering ChiNext, General Aviation, Medicine, Robotics and Other Hot Sectors**
This week the market is issuing 20 equity funds, covering 13 fund companies. Focusing on thematic sectors, STAR Market and broad-based indices have become core deployment areas, with high-end manufacturing and technology, STAR Market deepening deployment, and ChiNext and Hong Kong stock dividends becoming new focal points. Product structure shows the following characteristics: pure ETF products reach 7, with feeder funds and index-enhanced types at 13. Non-ETF products all have a 1 yuan subscription threshold, while ETFs uniformly require 1,000 yuan. 6 funds target STAR Market indices, setting a new weekly high.
Three major sectors lead, focusing on high-end manufacturing and technology themes. In general aviation, Everbright Prudential (A: 024788.OF C: 024789.OF) and China Asset Management (A: 024912.OF C: 024913.OF) simultaneously launch products tracking the "CSI General Aviation Industry Index," seizing low-altitude economy policy benefits.

In robotics: Harvest Fund (A: 024619.OF C: 024620.OF) deploys CSI Robotics ETF Feeder Fund, managed by Tian Guangyuan. STAR Market deepening deployment theme sees China Asset Management (A: 024879.OF C: 024880.OF) launching SSE STAR Market Composite Index Enhanced Fund, while Ever-growing Fund increases AI index exposure, reflecting institutions' exploration of STAR Market structural opportunities.

Under broad-based indices, ChiNext and Hong Kong stock dividends become new focal points. ChiNext Composite Index funds: Bosera (159287.OF managed by Wan Qiong), Hua Bao (159292.OF), and China Merchants (159291.OF) - three leading public fund companies rarely issue ETFs tracking this index simultaneously, breaking the monopoly pattern of ChiNext Index/CN50, covering broader small and medium innovative enterprises. Hong Kong high-dividend strategy: Tianhong (159281.OF) and Ever-growing (A: 023534.OF C: 023535.OF) respectively issue CSI Hong Kong Stock Connect Central SOE Dividend ETF and index funds, targeting Hong Kong stocks' undervalued dividend defensive attributes.

**Hybrid Products: "Veteran-Mid-New" Fund Managers Leading with "Equity-Bond Mix + Hong Kong Stock Opportunities" Strategy**
The 7 funds debuting this week (such as Baijia Technology Innovation A, Dongxing Industry Upgrade A, Southern Multi-Value, etc.) all have performance benchmarks including significant equity exposure (50%-80%), while combining bonds and Hong Kong stock indices, strictly positioned as equity-biased hybrid or flexible allocation funds, emphasizing "equity-bond mix + Hong Kong stock opportunities" strategy. This aligns with current market environment's demand for yield enhancement. This week's hybrid fund issuance is mainly led by strong large public fund companies, such as China Europe Fund with 3 funds, E Fund Management and Southern Fund with 1 each, plus specialized small companies Dongxing Fund and Baijia Fund. China Europe Fund's product line covers chemical industry, full-market stock selection (smart selection, value) and other multi-strategies, with the most aggressive deployment.
Fund manager teams show "solo combat + dual collaboration" model. China Europe Core Smart Selection A is jointly managed by Zhang Cong and Song Ting, potentially improving portfolio management efficiency through complementary capabilities; the remaining 6 products are all managed by single fund managers, such as Gan Zongwei managing Dongxing Industry Upgrade A, Tang Bolun managing E Fund Value Return, Liu Shiqing managing China Europe Core Value, Chen Heming managing Baijia Technology Innovation, who need to independently handle cross-market allocation challenges.
