大摩认为市场过度关注泡泡玛特北美市场的高频销售数据，严重低估了公司的真实价值。 追风交易台消息，1月5日，摩根士丹利Dustin Wei的研究团队发表研报，指出市场对泡泡玛特北美业务 的悲观预期存在严重偏差，投资者过度依赖难以验证的信用卡消费数据，却忽视了泡泡玛特在中国和亚 洲市场的强劲增长动能。 市场基于信用卡数据推算的2025年北美销售额低至60亿元人民币，大摩则预计为71亿元。更重要的是， 研报认为投资者过度关注北美市场和Labubu单一IP，当前公司在中国和亚太地区的基本面强劲，同时 非Labubu IP产品的增长快速。 大摩预计2026年盈利增长达21%。若公司能实现每季度约10%的环比增长，销售额将达到大摩的最乐观 的预期——600亿元人民币销售额及198亿元人民币净利润，这意味着预期盈利增长45-50%。一旦泡泡 玛特开始展现明确的环比增长，股价将出现积极反应。 北美销售预期可能过低 广泛流传的信用卡消费数据显示，泡泡玛特2025年北美销售额仅为60亿元人民币左右的低位。 这些数据显示2025年第四季度北美销售额较第三季度下降25-30%，且市场已将这一趋势外推至2026 年，定价为北美市场将出 ...

本周五关键就业数据公布前夕，一笔20万份合约的巨额押注引发市场关注。 周二，美国联邦基金期货市场出现史上最大规模单笔交易。据芝商所，这笔创纪录的大宗交易于纽约时间周二上午10:04执行，交易规模为20万份 1月份联邦基金期货合约。 据报道援引知情交易员透露，这是一笔卖出交易，每变动1个基点的风险敞口约为800万美元。交易动机尚不明确。周三亚洲时段公布的未平仓合 约数据将揭示该交易是新增头寸还是平仓操作。 这笔交易的时机敏感，正值周五美国劳动力市场数据公布前夕。若该笔合约为新建仓位，则将从美联储1月末政策会议预期的变化中获益。目前市 场定价显示该次会议降息概率为15%。 （美联储2026年降息概率） 周二截至纽约时间下午2点，1月合约总交易量接近70万份，低于去年11月21日创下的88.3万份单日纪录。 美国联邦基金期货按月结算，结算价为当月联邦基金有效利率(EFFR)的平均值，因此紧密跟踪市场对美联储政策利率路径的预期。 市场参与者对交易意图存在分歧。若为平仓操作，可能意味着有大型机构在关键数据前了结风险敞口。若为新建仓位，意味着交易者押注1月降息 预期将进一步减弱或消失。 1月合约最后交易日为1月30日，即 ...
