Economic Activity Insights - The U.S. economy is experiencing a preemptive surge in activity due to tariffs, characterized by "grabbing consumption," "grabbing imports," "grabbing inventory," and "grabbing equipment investment" [2] - Recent data indicates that all sectors of the U.S. economy are in a state of heightened activity, which may mask underlying cyclical weaknesses [2] - The overall economic cycle is likely to show systemic weakening across all sectors, with no single sector exhibiting significant vulnerabilities [23] Consumption and Investment Trends - Private sector final purchases remain relatively robust, but this growth is largely driven by preemptive demand for goods, particularly durable goods [4] - Consumer spending is expected to weaken further, as income growth, particularly in non-farm payrolls, is showing signs of slowing down [6] - The wealth effect supporting consumer resilience is diminishing, with total wealth growth for U.S. households expected to slow down significantly in Q1 2025 [9] Labor Market Dynamics - Non-farm payroll data shows healthy job growth, but the demand for labor may face challenges as companies respond to tariff impacts [15] - Job vacancy numbers have been declining, indicating a cautious approach from businesses regarding hiring amid tariff uncertainties [20] Risks and Policy Implications - The uncertainty surrounding Trump's tariff policies poses significant risks to economic stability, with potential for increased volatility [24] - A broader range of policy changes since Trump's administration is contributing to the economic downturn, suggesting that tariff perspectives alone may not fully explain the situation [23] - Future recovery from recession will require not only a resolution to the tariff conflict but also a natural decline in interest rates and inflation, alongside successful domestic reforms [23]

1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. 2. Core Viewpoints - The yield of ultra - long credit bonds unexpectedly declined, and the sentiment for subscribing to new ultra - long credit bonds warmed up, but the index increase of ultra - long credit bonds was difficult to match that of treasury bonds, and the spread of ultra - long credit bonds widened passively, showing the problems of slow growth and low cost - effectiveness [2][3][4][5] 3. Summary by Directory 3.1存量市场特征 - The yield of ultra - long credit bonds unexpectedly declined. Factors such as the loosening of the capital market at the cross - month node and continuous trade frictions strengthened the bullish logic of the bond market. Before the holiday, the yield of long - duration interest - rate bonds dropped rapidly, and the interest rate of ultra - long credit bonds also declined. More than a hundred existing ultra - long credit bonds had yields below 2.2% compared with the previous week [2][13] 3.2一级发行情况 - The sentiment for subscribing to ultra - long credit bonds warmed up. Before the holiday, the supply of new ultra - long credit bonds slowed down. However, the average issuance interest rate of ultra - long industrial bonds rebounded to 2.39%. Benefiting from the increase in the coupon yield of new bonds and the loosening of the capital market, the subscription sentiment for new ultra - long credit bonds showed signs of marginal warming [3][22] 3.3二级成交表现 - The index increase of ultra - long credit bonds was difficult to match that of treasury bonds. Treasury bonds over 10 years strengthened rapidly. Although the ultra - long credit bond index followed the increase, the increase was far less than that of interest - rate bonds. The weekly increase of AA + credit bonds over 10 years was only 0.21% [4][29] - The trading volume of ultra - long credit bonds suddenly increased. Within three trading days of the week before the holiday, the number of transactions of credit bonds over 7 years exceeded the readings of the previous two weeks, with the most obvious increase in the trading volume of 7 - 10 - year long - term bonds. The sudden increase in trading volume may be related to some investors missing the interest - rate market and then increasing their allocation of ultra - long credit bonds to make up for losses. Since April, the proportion of transactions of new ultra - long credit bonds has increased significantly, and the reading in the latest week was close to 30% [4][30] - In the latest week, the proportion of TKN transactions of ultra - long credit bonds rose to over 75%, and the overall trading form was mainly low - valuation transactions [4] - Before the holiday, both public funds and wealth management products had positive net purchases of ultra - long credit bonds.

The credit spreads of active bonds around 10 years and 30 years both exceeded 60bp, rising to over 80% of the quantile level in the past 24 years. Although the net price of active ultra - long credit bonds also increased in the latest week, the increase was significantly weaker than that of interest - rate bonds of the same term. The floating profits of long - term bond issuers below 20 years were not much different from those of medium - term issuers, exposing the problems of "slow growth and low cost - effectiveness" of this variety [5][43]

Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. Core View of the Report The central bank's attitude has eased, with increased reverse repurchase and MLF投放, and falling interest rates. The downward space for funds is greater than the upward space. The central bank's response to the tariff shock has been calm, and the decline in interest rates has been limited. The weakening fundamentals may drive interest rates down further. There are two possible "broad money" models, and the second model is more likely, with the negative impact of monetary factors on the bond market decreasing [5][6][37]. Summary by Relevant Catalogs 4 - Month Review: Lowered Fund Center, but Weak Expectations for Interest Rate Cuts - **Central Bank's Attitude**: The central bank's attitude in April was "stable with a slight easing." Net 7 - day reverse repurchase was 320.8 billion yuan, and 1 - year MLF had a net injection of 50 billion yuan, with a total open - market operation injection of 820.8 billion yuan. However, the net withdrawal of outright reverse repurchase was 50 billion yuan. The central bank's current attitude towards the funds remains stable, but has eased compared to the beginning of the year [2][12]. - **Fund Price**: The central level of fund interest rates for all terms decreased in April compared to March. DR001 and DR007 decreased by 10bp and 15bp to 1.67% and 1.73% respectively; R001 and R007 decreased by 15bp and 19bp to 1.71% and 1.77% respectively. The spread between DR007 and the 7 - day reverse repurchase rate narrowed to 23bp [3][13]. - **Certificate of Deposit**: In April, the issuance volume and price of certificates of deposit decreased. The total issuance volume of inter - bank certificates of deposit by state - owned and joint - stock banks dropped from 2.7 trillion yuan to 1.7 trillion yuan. The weighted average issuance rates of state - owned and joint - stock banks' inter - bank certificates of deposit decreased by 23bp and 22bp respectively, and the yields to maturity of 3M, 6M, and 1Y certificates of deposit decreased by 21bp, 21bp, and 19bp respectively [3][14]. - **Interest Rate Cut Expectations**: The market has not restarted "interest rate cut trading." From the perspectives of IRS:FR007 and FR007 spread, floating - rate and fixed - rate bond YTM spread, and the monetary tightness and looseness expectation index, the expectation of interest rate cuts in the bond market in April was volatile, mainly affected by changing tariff policies and the "determination" of domestic monetary policy [4][15]. 5 - Month Outlook: External and Internal Pressures Cause Disturbances, and There May Be Room for Funds to Go Down - **Central Bank's Attitude and Interest Rate Space**: Compared with the "abnormally high" fund - policy spread in Q1, the central bank's attitude has eased, with increased reverse repurchase and MLF投放, and falling interest rates for two consecutive months. The downward space for funds is greater than the upward space [5][25]. - **Tariff Impact**: The central bank has been "calm" in the face of the tariff shock. The decline in interest rates since the trade friction has been limited compared to historical shock events. From March to April, the spread between DR007 and the policy rate only narrowed by 39bp [5][25][26]. - **Fundamentals**: The fundamentals do not support a trend of rising fund prices. The PMI and building materials composite index have declined, and the negative impact of trade friction on the economy has been reflected in multiple dimensions. If the fundamentals weaken, it may drive interest rates down further [5][29]. - **Government Bond Financing**: In May, the net financing scale of government bonds is expected to increase significantly compared to April. The estimated net financing scale of national bonds is about 970 billion yuan, and that of local bonds is about 450.3 billion yuan, with a total of about 1.4 trillion yuan [32]. - **Liquidity Gap**: The liquidity gap in May may narrow slightly compared to April, mainly due to the lower maturity of outright reverse repurchase. However, attention should be paid to the disturbance of government bond issuance [33][34]. - **Broad Money Path**: There are two possible "broad money" models for the central bank. The second model (first compressing the spread and then cutting the policy rate) shows more signs of implementation, and the negative impact of monetary factors on the bond market is decreasing [6][37].
