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

Upcoming Catalysts Table

China-Specific Considerations

Earnings Calendar Patterns

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
