1. Report Industry Investment Rating - No relevant information provided in the report. 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - After the Spring Festival, the bond market showed a differentiated performance. Long - term interest rates rebounded significantly, while short - term interest rates mainly fluctuated downward. The situation where long - and short - term bonds "go their separate ways" is likely to continue [6][9]. - From the perspective of expectations, the market's expectations of price increases and loose funds are strengthening, making it difficult for long - term interest rates to decline and short - term interest rates to rise. The current situation is similar to the scenario where demand - side support is weak during PPI increases [6][9]. - When the carry - over factor and new price - increase factor of PPI deviate, and only the carry - over factor drives the improvement of PPI year - on - year, the bond market mostly fluctuates or declines. The end of the bond market disturbance caused by price - increase expectations is difficult to materialize in the short term [6][10]. - From the perspective of institutional behavior, self - operated institutions and allocation - type funds focus on interest rate levels, while asset management products and trading - type funds focus on spreads. Currently, the latter lacks sufficient funds in the bond market, making it difficult to compress the steep term spread. Institutional behavior may ensure a stable inter - bank liquidity in March, supporting short - term interest rates [6][13]. - In the short term, the pattern of long - and short - term bonds "going their separate ways" will continue. The steep term spread is difficult to compress, and the low short - term credit spread is difficult to widen. It is recommended to pay attention to the riding income of 3 - 4 - year varieties [6][21]. 3. Summary According to the Directory 3.1 Bond Market Weekly Viewpoint - After the Spring Festival, the bond market was differentiated. Long - term interest rates rebounded, and short - term interest rates fluctuated downward. This situation is expected to continue [6][9]. - From the expectation perspective, overseas oil price fluctuations affect PPI, and domestic inter - bank liquidity is expected to remain loose. The current situation is similar to the case of weak demand - side support during PPI increases [9]. - When the PPI carry - over and new price - increase factors deviate, the bond market mostly fluctuates or declines. The end of price - increase expectation disturbances is hard to achieve in the short term [10]. - From the institutional behavior perspective, insufficient funds from asset management and trading - type funds make it difficult to compress the term spread. Institutional behavior may support short - term interest rates in March [13][19]. - The short - term pattern of long - and short - term bonds "going their separate ways" will continue. It is recommended to focus on the riding income of 3 - 4 - year varieties [21]. 3.2 This Week's Focus in the Fixed - Income Market - This week, China will release the March LPR, and relevant economic data from China and the US will be announced. Central banks such as the Fed and the Bank of England will also release interest rate decisions and related information [22][23]. - The planned issuance of interest - rate bonds this week is expected to be around 1.0872 trillion yuan, including 595 billion yuan of treasury bonds, 342.2 billion yuan of local bonds, and about 150 billion yuan of policy - bank bonds [24][25]. 3.3 Review and Outlook of Interest - Rate Bonds - Last week, the open - market operations had a net withdrawal of 251.1 billion yuan.

The secondary yields of most certificates of deposit declined [29][31][37]. - Last week, short - term yields declined, and long - term yields increased, with the spread widening. Short - term bonds benefited from a low deficit level and reduced bank liability pressure, while long - term bonds were affected by strong export data and high inflation expectations [47]. 3.4 High - Frequency Data - On the production side, most operating rates increased, but the daily average crude steel output in late February still had a large year - on - year decline [54]. - On the demand side, the year - on - year growth rates of passenger car wholesale and retail were high. The land transaction area in 100 large - and medium - sized cities and the commercial housing sales area in 30 large - and medium - sized cities were lower than the same period [54]. - In terms of export indices, the SCFI and CCFI composite indices changed by 14.9% and 1.7% respectively [54]. - In terms of prices, crude oil prices continued to rise, copper and aluminum prices diverged, coal prices were also differentiated, the building materials price index rose slightly, and the prices of downstream consumer goods such as vegetables, fruits, and pork declined [55].
