1. Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the document 2. Core Views of the Report - In Q4 2025, the bond market valuation recovered, and the net asset value of the bond funds in the whole market stopped falling and rebounded. However, the "asset shortage" pattern continued, the yield of credit bonds declined again, and the supply of desirable medium - to - high - yield assets shrank. Against this background, bond funds actively explored returns in terms of variety and duration in Q4, while remaining relatively cautious about credit downgrading [5]. - From the overall situation of bond fund heavy - holdings, the return range was further compressed, and institutions tended to adopt conservative strategies. The yields of the heavy - holding bond issuers were highly concentrated in the low - return range below 1.8%, and the scale of high - yield assets above 2.5% continued to shrink [5]. - For heavy - holding of urban investment bonds, the regional level showed a downward trend, with a preference for short - term durations. Zhejiang and Jiangsu were still the core heavy - holding regions, but the allocation intensity decreased. Institutions' preference for regions such as Sichuan, Shanghai, and Hunan increased. In terms of term distribution, the scale of each province was mainly concentrated around 1 - year, and as the term lengthened, the holding preference converged significantly towards strong provinces [5]. - For heavy - holding of financial bonds, bank Tier 2 and perpetual bonds dominated the allocation, and there was an obvious trend of variety downgrading. Financial bonds accounted for 72% of all heavy - holding credit bonds, with bank Tier 2 and perpetual bonds as the core varieties, and the allocation was relatively concentrated in the medium - to - high - yield range of 2.0% - 2.5%. In terms of term, a dumbbell - shaped allocation was preferred [5]. - For heavy - holding of industrial bonds, the allocation was concentrated in core industries, and institutions were more cautious about real - estate bonds. Non - bank finance and public utilities were the top two industries in terms of total market value of holdings, and were significantly increased in holdings compared with the previous period. Industries such as real estate, transportation, and coal were significantly reduced in holdings [5]. 3. Summary According to Relevant Catalogs 3.1 Bond Fund Heavy - Holding Overview 3.1.1 Overall Situation - As of the end of Q4 2025, there were 3,993 bond - type funds in the whole market, with a total scale of 11.10 trillion yuan, an increase of 0.36 trillion yuan compared with the end of the previous quarter. Bond - type funds were mainly medium - and long - term pure - bond funds, presenting a structure characterized by "dominated by medium - and long - term pure - bond funds and supplemented by hybrid bond funds" [11]. 3.1.2 Credit Bond Heavy - Holding from a Return Perspective - Most bond funds had a stable investment style and tended to adopt relatively conservative investment strategies. The yields of heavy - holding bond issuers were highly concentrated in the range below 1.8%. The supply of high - yield assets continued to shrink, and the high - yield assets above 2.5% further contracted compared with Q3 2025 [19]. - In Q4, the "asset shortage" continued, and the yields of credit bonds declined again. The concentration range of heavy - holding bond yields shifted downward. Compared with Q3, the balance of heavy - holding bonds with issuer yields below 1.8% increased significantly, while the holding balances of heavy - holding bonds in the ranges of 1.8 - 2.0%, 2.0 - 2.5%, and above 2.5% decreased to varying degrees [19]. 3.1.3 Types of Bond Fund Heavy - Holding Bonds and Their Performance in Different Dimensions - In Q4 2025, bond fund heavy - holding bonds generally showed a configuration trend of low - return concentration and high - return contraction.

Zhejiang and Jiangsu were still the core heavy - holding regions, but the allocation intensity decreased. Institutions' preference for regions such as Sichuan, Shanghai, and Hunan increased [38]. 3.2.2 Term Characteristics of Heavy - Holding Urban Investment Bonds - Urban investment bonds generally preferred short - term durations. As the term lengthened, the holding preference converged significantly towards strong provinces.

The yields of heavy - holding bonds generally declined rapidly, and there was significant differentiation in the remaining terms among issuers [61]. 3.4 Situation of Industrial Bond Heavy - Holding 3.4.1 Analysis of Heavy - Holding Industrial Bond Industries - Industrial bond allocation was still centered on industries with strong quasi - public attributes and industries with high financial relevance. Non - bank finance, public utilities, and transportation were the top three industries in terms of total market value of holdings. Non - bank finance and public utilities were significantly increased in holdings, while industries such as real estate, transportation, and coal were significantly reduced in holdings [71]. - Short - term duration varieties were still the main allocation. Most industries had a proportion of 0 - 2 - year terms exceeding 50%. Non - bank finance significantly lengthened the heavy - holding duration, while public utilities further increased the allocation of short - term duration bonds [72]. 3.4.2 Analysis of the Top 20 Heavy - Holding Industrial Bond Issuers - The top 20 heavy - holding industrial bond issuers were all central and local state - owned enterprises, mainly distributed in industries such as non - bank finance, public utilities, transportation, and coal. The allocation of industrial bond issuers was relatively concentrated. The average valuation yields of the top 20 heavy - holding industrial bond issuers generally declined, and there was significant differentiation in term changes among issuers [76]. 3.4.3 Analysis of the Top 10 Heavy - Holding Real - Estate Bond Issuers - State - owned and central - enterprise - affiliated real - estate bond issuers still occupied a core position. Some issuers were significantly increased in holdings, while some were significantly reduced in holdings. The real - estate bond allocation showed the characteristics of "medium - to - short - term duration + concentration on strong - credit issuers", and there was obvious differentiation in the return and duration strategies [79].
