David
So Wei, what asset classes do you cover?
Wei,你们覆盖哪些资产类别?
学员
Mostly equities — China equities. We also hold some fixed income for balance.
主要是股票——中国股票,也配一些固收做平衡。
David
Any alternatives? Everyone seems to be in private credit these days.
有另类吗?现在人人都在做私募信贷。
学员
Not yet. We're watching private credit, but honestly, it's getting crowded.
还没有。我们在观察私募信贷,但说实话有点拥挤了。
David
Fair point. What about commodities — any gold exposure?
有道理。大宗商品呢——有黄金敞口吗?
学员
A small position, mostly through ETFs. It's a hedge, not a bet.
有一小部分,主要通过 ETF。是对冲,不是押注。
David
"A hedge, not a bet" — I like that. Do you touch FX at all?
"对冲不是押注",我喜欢这个说法。你们碰外汇吗?
学员
Only to manage currency risk. We're not FX traders.
只做汇率风险管理,我们不是外汇交易员。
David
Sensible. My clients keep asking about treasuries now that yields are decent.
明智。收益率不错了,我的客户老问美债。
学员
Same here. How are you positioning clients — long bonds or short?
我们也是。你们给客户怎么配——长债还是短债?
David
Mostly short-dated for now. Nobody trusts the long end.
目前主要短久期,没人敢信长端。
学员
That matches what we see. By the way, which session are you going to next?
和我们看到的一致。对了,你下一场去听哪个?
David
The private markets panel. Join me?
私募市场那场。一起?
学员
Sure, let's go. After you!
好啊,走。你先请!

You mentioned you run China equities. Active, I assume?
你说你做中国股票,主动管理吧?

Yes, fully active. Our benchmark is MSCI China, and we aim for alpha through stock picking.
对,全主动。基准是 MSCI China,靠选股做 alpha。
Emma
How concentrated is the portfolio?
组合集中度多高?
学员
Around forty names. Big enough to diversify, small enough to know every company well.
40 只左右。够分散,也小到每家公司都吃透。
Emma
Nice line. What are you overweight right now?
说得好。现在超配什么?
学员
We're overweight tech and healthcare, underweight banks.

Emma
Why underweight banks? The yields look attractive.

学员
Good question — in short, we worry about property exposure on their books.
好问题——简单说,担心它们账上的地产敞口。
Emma
Do you hedge the currency?
你们对冲汇率吗?
学员
Partially. We hedge about half the exposure — full hedging costs too much.
部分对冲,大概一半敞口——全对冲成本太高。
Emma
And how often do you rebalance?
多久再平衡一次?
学员
Quarterly, unless the market gives us a reason to move faster.
季度一次,除非市场给我们更快行动的理由。
Emma
Sounds disciplined. We're reviewing our China sleeve next quarter, actually.

学员
Then we should definitely stay in touch. Are you on LinkedIn?
那我们一定得保持联系。你用 LinkedIn 吗?
Emma

Tom
Anyone can have one good year. What was your worst drawdown?

Cautiously positive. Rates are coming down, and earnings are holding up.

Raj
You believe in the soft landing story then?

Raj
Everyone says that. What's your contrarian view? Something nobody agrees with?
人人都这么说。你有什么逆共识的观点?

学员
We should trade notes on EM sometime — are you on LinkedIn?

Raj

学员
Every day, actually. Not to pick stocks — to read faster.
天天用。不是用来选股,是用来读得更快。
Michael
Read faster? What do you mean?
读得更快?什么意思?
学员
Earnings calls, filings, broker notes. AI summarizes them in minutes. My analysts used to spend whole days on that.

"从信息到判断",说得好。
学员
And here's the part people miss — small teams can now do what only big firms could afford before.
还有个大家忽略的点——小团队现在能做以前只有大机构做得起的事。
Michael
That should worry the big firms, not the small ones.
那该担心的是大机构,不是小机构。
学员
Exactly our bet. What about your shop — any experiments?
这正是我们押的方向。你们公司呢——有尝试吗?

有几个试点。说实话我想多了解你们的做法。
学员
Happy to share. Let's swap contacts — I'll send you a short write-up.
乐意分享。交换联系方式吧——我发你一份简短总结。
