The current policy is expected to ease banks' medium - and long - term liquidity pressure, lower the funds rate to make the yield curve steeper, and the 10Y Treasury bond yield may fall to the 1.5% - 1.6% range [2][12][13] - Future attention should be paid to the impact of bond supply and changes in the economic fundamentals and policies, especially the Sino - US trade negotiations from May 9 - 12 [2][13] 3.
