Episode Details

While the A-share market performed strongly on the first trading day of the Year of the Horse, it is likely to gallop forward even further in the following months, mainly driven by a more amiable domestic macro environment and the development of emerging technologies, experts said.

专家表示，虽然A股在马年首个交易日表现强劲，但在未来几个月可能会在更友好的国内宏观环境以及新兴技术发展的推动下进一步上涨。

After the extended Spring Festival break, the benchmark Shanghai Composite Index gained 0.87 percent to close at 4117.41 points on Tuesday, while the Shenzhen Component Index jumped 1.36 percent. The tech-heavy ChiNext in Shenzhen also added 0.99 percent. Total trading value on the Shanghai, Shenzhen and Beijing bourses amounted over 2.2 trillion yuan ($319 billion), up nearly 11 percent from the previous trading day.

春节长假过后，基准上证综指周二上涨0.87%，收报4117.41点，深证成指上涨1.36%，以科技股为主的创业板指上涨0.99%。上海、深圳和北京证券交易所的总成交额超过2.2万亿元人民币（合3190亿美元），较前一交易日上涨近11%。

Oil and gas extraction companies as well as precious metal enterprises contributed the most to the Tuesday rally, with the former reporting an average 7.53 percent price increase and the latter up by 7.01 percent on average.

油气开采企业以及贵金属企业是当日涨幅最大的板块，前者平均上涨7.53%，后者平均上涨7.01%。

Uncertainties in the external market have buoyed the performance of the above A-share sectors. The twists and turns in the US-Iran talks have pushed up oil prices, and uncertainty in Washington's tariff policies may escalate the risk-averse sentiment, resulting in higher precious metal prices, said Xia Fanjie, a strategist at China Securities.

外部市场的不确定性推动了上述A股板块的表现。中信建投证券策略分析师夏凡捷表示，美伊谈判的曲折推高了油价，美国政府关税政策的不确定性可能会加剧避险情绪，导致贵金属价格上涨。

The A-share market is likely to rise further after the Chinese New Year while short-term volatility may not be avoidable, said Yang Chao, chief strategist at China Galaxy Securities. Market anticipation of more supportive government policies may serve as the core driver of a bull market, which can be further sustained by ample market liquidity and development of emerging industries, Yang said.

中国银河证券首席策略分析师杨超表示，春节后A股市场有望进一步上涨，但短期内波动可能无法避免。杨超表示，市场对政府出台更多支持性政策的预期可能成为牛市的核心驱动力，而充足的市场流动性和新兴产业的发展可能进一步维持牛市。
