This article from Tencent Finance analyzes the A-share market outlook for the final three trading days before China's National Day holiday (September 28-30, 2026). After a week of profit-taking that saw the Shanghai Composite lose the 3900 level and turnover drop to around 1.7 trillion yuan, analysts from multiple institutions provide forecasts. Historical backtesting of 2017-2025 data shows a 'first dip then rise' pattern: the third-last day is the riskiest (25% win rate, average -0.68%), while the final two days see improving odds (62% win rate) and the last day tends to close positive (67% of years). The recent US-China summit produced 'eight-point consensus', which analysts say could improve risk appetite. Institutions recommend actively seizing the rebound window, focusing on AI-related tech stocks, Halo assets (non-ferrous metals and chemicals), and non-bank financials. Risks cited include oil prices, US bond yields, and Fed rate expectations. A massive 104 billion yuan in stock lockup expirations is expected next week.
