Report Industry Investment Rating - The report does not provide an industry investment rating [1][7] Core Viewpoints - After the holiday, the bond market continued to recover because the two reasons for the bond market adjustment in the third quarter had subsided: the deflation repair expectation was fully priced, and there was an expectation of regulatory policy loosening [6][9] - From the perspective of institutional behavior, if only the trading desks shift from defense to offense without the cooperation of allocation desks, the bond market recovery will not be significant. Last week, while the funding rate and Treasury bond rate both declined, the certificate of deposit (CD) rate rebounded from a low level, which is indicative of bank behavior and worthy of attention [6][9] - After the holiday, the issuance of CDs by various banks showed a simultaneous increase in volume and price, which may be due to two reasons: First, joint - stock banks and city commercial banks are more eager to catch up on CD issuance progress as their cumulative issuance scale is lower. Second, banks are pessimistic about their fourth - quarter asset - liability relationship, and large - scale banks are more likely to face this pressure [6][9] - If the first reason dominates, the CD issuance will be sensitive to the issuance price, and the primary market will shift from an increase in both volume and price to an increase in volume with stable or decreasing prices. If the second reason dominates, the CD issuance will be insensitive to the price, and the increase in both volume and price in the primary market will continue [6][10] - If the second situation dominates, it means that banks face significant asset - liability pressure, and their willingness to allocate bonds will not increase significantly, which will also affect the bond market recovery. Therefore, it is recommended to focus on the interest rate changes in the CD market. If the central bank strengthens its monetary policy to help solve banks' liability problems, bond yields are expected to decline more rapidly [6][10] Summary by Directory 1. Bond Market Weekly Viewpoint: Focus on CD Interest Rate Changes - The bond market continued to recover after the holiday due to the subsiding of the two factors causing the third - quarter adjustment. The analysis can refer to the previous report "The bond market will turn around in the fourth quarter, but it won't be an overnight success" [9] - The rebound of CD rates last week while other rates declined is worthy of attention as it reflects bank behavior [9] - The two possible reasons for the increase in CD issuance volume and price after the holiday are related to catching up on issuance progress and pessimistic asset - liability expectations [9] 2. This Week's Focus in the Fixed - Income Market: Interest - Bearing Bond Supply Reaches a High 2.1 Pay Attention to September Economic Data - This week, China will release September economic data and October LPR, while the US will release September seasonally - adjusted CPI and October University of Michigan Consumer Sentiment Index [16][17] 2.2 This Week's Interest - Bearing Bond Issuance Reaches around One Trillion - This week, the issuance scale of interest - bearing bonds is seasonally rising and is at a relatively high level compared to the same period in previous years, with a total issuance of about 1.0852 trillion yuan expected [17] - Treasury bonds: Four key - term general Treasury bonds with terms of 3, 5, 7, and 10 years are planned to be issued, with scales of 127 billion, 129 billion, 118 billion, and 149 billion yuan respectively.

Coupled with the weakening of the equity market and lower - than - expected price and financial data, all were positive for the bond market recovery. The market's expectation of the subsequent issuance of new 30 - year Treasury bonds drove the narrowing of the spread between new and old bonds [42] - Finally, the yields of the 10 - year Treasury bond and the active - issue policy - bank bond changed by 0.4bp and - 2.1bp respectively to 1.75% and 1.91%.
