Workflow

Step 1: Define Coverage Universe

Identify the stocks and sectors to track. Typical A-share coverage universe:

  • 50-200 names
  • Organized by sector/industry
  • Priority tiers (P1 = must-track, P2 = watchlist)

Step 2: Build Calendar Entries

For each catalyst, record:

{
  "date": "2024-04-25",
  "type": "earnings",
  "subtype": "季报",
  "ticker": "{{TICKER}}",
  "company": "{{COMPANY_NAME}}",
  "importance": "high",
  "notes": "Q1 2024 results; watch 批价 and inventory",
  "status": "confirmed"
}

Catalyst types in JSON:

  • earnings — quarterly/semi/annual reports
  • earnings_call — 业绩说明会
  • regulatory — 监管政策发布
  • policy — 宏观政策 (央行, 国务院)
  • corporate — 公司事件 (分红, 解禁, M&A)
  • macro_data — 经济数据发布
  • sector_event — 行业展会/论坛
  • lockup_expiry — 限售股解禁

Step 3: Prioritize Catalysts

Importance levels:

  • Critical: Likely to move stock >10% (earnings, M&A, major policy)
  • High: Likely to move stock 5-10% (regulatory decisions, industry data)
  • Medium: Watch item, context-setting (dividend, conference participation)
  • Low: Background noise (routine filings, minor announcements)

Step 4: Pre-Catalyst Preparation

1 week before critical catalysts:

  • Pull latest data and consensus
  • Prepare scenario analysis
  • Draft preliminary positioning note
  • Alert stakeholders if high-impact

1 day before critical catalysts:

  • Final data check
  • Confirm release timing (morning vs afternoon)
  • Prepare pre-market positioning note
  • Set monitoring alerts

Step 5: Post-Catalyst Update

After catalyst passes:

  • Record actual outcome
  • Compare vs scenario framework
  • Update price target / thesis if material
  • Move to "completed" section
  • Flag next catalyst in queue

China-Specific Considerations

Earnings Calendar Patterns

SeasonMonthsKey Notes
Q1 earningsLate April年报 + Q1季报 叠加, 信息密集
H1 earningsLate August中报窗口, 分红预案公布
Q3 earningsLate October三季报, 全年预测调整
Annual earningsJan-April年报密集发布, 分红方案

Lock-up Expiry (限售股解禁)

  • 首发限售股 (IPO lock-up): typically 12 months
  • 定增限售股 (private placement): typically 6-18 months
  • 股权激励限售股: varies by plan
  • High lock-up expiry → potential selling pressure

Risk assessment:

  • Large percentage of float unlocking (>5%) → high risk
  • Concentrated holders (single entity) → higher impact
  • Company in downtrend → higher probability of sale

Regulatory Calendar

Recurring policy events:

  • 中央经济工作会议 (Central Economic Work Conference): Dec
  • 两会 (Two Sessions / NPC & CPPCC): Mar
  • 政治局会议 (Politburo meeting): Monthly (economics discussed ~quarterly)
  • 国新办发布会 (State Council Info Office presser): Ad-hoc
  • 央行货币政策执行报告: Quarterly

Dividend Calendar

  • 股权登记日 (record date): critical for dividend capture
  • 除权除息日 (ex-dividend date): price adjusts
  • 分红实施公告: typically 2-4 weeks after AGM approval
  • 高送转 (high bonus issue): historically market-positive event
