Report Industry Investment Rating - There is no information about the report industry investment rating in the provided content. Core Viewpoints of the Report - The geopolitical tensions persist, and concerns about inflation have led to a decline in US Treasuries. The yields of 10 - year and 2 - year US Treasuries have risen significantly, with the 2 - year yield rising more, reflecting concerns about limited Fed rate - cut space due to rising inflation expectations. The situation's uncertainty remains high, and the duration of the Holmuiz Strait's navigation restrictions is crucial [1][2]. - Affected by the sharp rise in US Treasury yields, Chinese - funded US dollar bonds have declined for two consecutive weeks, with the Bloomberg Barclays Chinese - funded US dollar bond total return index falling 0.5% last week [1][3]. - In the on - shore market, the yields of 3 - year and 10 - year government bonds have risen. Factors such as improved inflation expectations, good industrial production and export performance, improved fixed investment data, and reduced expectations of future monetary policy easing have jointly promoted the rise in government bond yields. However, overall, monetary policy will remain supportive, and there is no basis for a continuous rise in interest - rate bond yields [1][4]. Summary According to Relevant Catalogs Off - shore Market - There were 3 new issuances of Chinese - funded US dollar bonds exceeding $100 million last week, totaling $1.45 billion, mainly financial bonds; about 17.5 billion RMB of off - shore RMB bonds were newly issued, also mainly financial bonds [2]. - The yields of 10 - year and 2 - year US Treasuries rose 14 and 16 basis points respectively to 4.28% and 3.72% last week, mainly due to market concerns about potential inflation problems caused by the continuous high oil price [1][2]. - Key - term US Treasuries have fully reversed all their gains this year.

Coupled with the guidance of the People's Bank of China, market expectations of future monetary policy easing have weakened, jointly promoting the rise in government bond yields.

Report Summary 1. Investment Rating The provided content does not mention the investment rating of the industry. 2. Core View - The market sentiment is dominated by risk - aversion, leading to a significant decline in US Treasury yields. The 10 - year and 2 - year US Treasury yields decreased by 15 and 10 basis points respectively last week to 3.94% and 3.37%. Although recent data shows a rebound in US inflation pressure, risk - aversion sentiment has overshadowed this, causing the yields to drop [1][2][3]. - The geopolitical conflict between the US, Israel and Iran has escalated, with the US and Israel launching military actions against Iran and Iran counter - attacking and blocking the Strait of Hormuz. This has led to a sharp rise in crude oil prices, which may affect inflation. The military action may last for four weeks, and in the short term, US Treasuries may remain volatile under the resonance of risk - aversion and rising inflation expectations. Higher - than - expected inflation data and the rise in energy prices triggered by geopolitical conflicts have further reduced the possibility of the Fed cutting interest rates in March [1][3]. - Driven by the significant decline in US Treasury yields, Chinese dollar - denominated bonds performed well last week, with the Bloomberg Barclays Chinese dollar - denominated bond total return index rising 0.4% for the week. Among them, the high - rating index rose 0.5% and the high - yield index rose 0.2% [1][3]. - In the on - shore market, after the Spring Festival, the central bank net - withdrew short - term liquidity of 611.4 billion RMB through reverse repurchase operations and net - injected long - term funds of 300 billion RMB through MLF over - renewal. Bank - to - bank funding rates have rebounded significantly compared to before the Spring Festival. The 3 - year and 10 - year Treasury yields were flat and up 2 basis points respectively compared to before the Spring Festival, reaching 1.38% and 1.82%. The domestic interest - rate bond market was also boosted by risk - aversion sentiment on Monday, with yields on Treasury bonds of various maturities generally declining. The Two Sessions will be held this week, and the 2026 economic targets, fiscal support, and possible release of more monetary policy signals will be priced in the bond market [1][4]. 3. Summary by Category Off - shore Market - The issuance of Chinese dollar - denominated bonds remained light, with only one new issuance of over $100 million for the whole week. In contrast, the issuance of off - shore RMB bonds was quite active, with a total issuance of 65.5 billion RMB for the whole week, mainly driven by the issuance of 50 billion RMB central bank bills by the People's Bank of China [2]. - The significant decline in US Treasury yields was due to the market being dominated by risk - aversion sentiment. Although recent inflation data in the US has rebounded, the geopolitical risk has significantly escalated, and the US Treasury market has priced in the war risk in advance [2][3]. On - shore Market - After the Spring Festival, funds flowed back to the banking system. The central bank adjusted the liquidity through reverse repurchase operations and MLF. Bank - to - bank funding rates increased, and the yields of 3 - year and 10 - year Treasury bonds changed compared to before the Spring Festival. The domestic interest - rate bond market was affected by risk - aversion sentiment, and the yields of Treasury bonds of various maturities declined. The upcoming Two Sessions may bring new economic and policy signals to the bond market [1][4]. List of Chinese Dollar - denominated Bonds The documents provide a detailed list of Chinese dollar - denominated bonds, including information such as issuers, guarantors, coupon rates, issuance amounts, maturities, and ratings [7][17][23].
