Core Viewpoints of the Report - Amid the repeated Sino - US economic and trade game, the bond market maintained a relatively strong oscillation this week (2025.10.13 - 2025.10.17), but short - term participation should be cautious.

It is recommended to appropriately shorten the duration [1][14]. - The long - and short - term yields of US Treasury bonds continued the previous downward trend from October 13th to 17th, 2025, indicating an increase in the marginal expectation of a US economic recession and a relative weakening of the stagflation expectation.

Industry Investment Rating No industry investment rating information is provided in the report. Core Views - The long - and short - end of US Treasury yields continued to decline last week, and the long - end briefly fell below 4%, suggesting an increased market bet on US economic recession. The gold price correction on Friday raised concerns about changing market bets. Global liquidity is shifting more firmly towards easing, which will fuel the further bubble of AI themes, strengthen market structuring, benefit the technology sector in the short - term, and be negative for precious metals [1][43][44]. - China's ChiNext and STAR Market weakened with a strong wait - and - see sentiment, and convertible bonds followed suit. Low - price, large - cap, and high - rating convertible bonds were relatively resilient. The high - low rotation in the convertible bond market preceded that in the equity market, possibly due to factors such as the amplification effect of convertible bond valuation, large - scale redemptions of high - standard bonds, and the low risk appetite of convertible bond investors [1][44]. - Considering both external and domestic factors, the main logic of technology computing power and electricity remains valid. With the approaching earnings season, it is recommended to focus on sectors with relatively certain earnings improvement, such as new energy and some chemical fields. Convertible bonds like Pingmei, Yuguang, Xingfa, Aidi, Saite, and Shouhua are recommended for their defensive properties [1]. - The top ten convertible bonds with the highest probability of downward revision next week are Ziyin, Lanfan, Dongshi, Baolai, Longda, Jiangong, Wanqing, Jidong, Shanlu, and Aojia Convertible Bonds [1][44]. - The top ten high - rating, medium - low - price convertible bonds with the greatest potential for par premium rate repair next week are Sheng24, Changji, Pufa, Chunqiu, Ying19, Xiwang, Liqun, Wentai, Liuyao, and Jieneng Convertible Bonds [1][44].

Core Insights - The report argues that the recent market uptrend since June is not primarily driven by "residential deposit migration," but rather by an improvement in risk appetite and a shift in earnings expectations [1] - It highlights several misconceptions regarding the migration of residential deposits and emphasizes that the changes in non-bank deposits are more of a consequence than a cause of market movements [1] Misconceptions about Residential Deposit Migration - The decline in wealth management yields due to lower risk-free rates has not significantly prompted residents to shift towards other asset types; instead, they have increased their allocation to medium-term wealth management products [2] - Historical data shows that high growth in non-bank deposits typically corresponds with a booming equity market, while recent trends indicate that new residential deposits have not fluctuated significantly [2] - The report notes that periods of significant residential market entry often coincide with overheated market sentiment, suggesting that such behavior may lead to market tops rather than sustained growth [2] Market Drivers - The primary drivers of the market are identified as changes in narrative, improved risk appetite, and enhanced earnings expectations, with liquidity playing a secondary role [3] - The report utilizes a DDM model to illustrate that since September of the previous year, market gains have been predominantly attributed to improved risk appetite, followed by earnings expectations, while the impact of reduced risk-free rates has been minimal [3] Market Trading Logic - The report indicates a shift in market trading logic from valuation-driven to a "Davis Double Play" approach, where performance is increasingly guided by earnings rather than just valuations [3] - It notes that the strong performance of the overseas computing sector has significantly influenced the domestic market, particularly in the technology and innovation sectors [3] Earnings Recovery Indicators - Two leading indicators suggest that corporate earnings may have bottomed out: credit expansion typically precedes earnings recovery by about nine months, with a turning point expected in November [4] - Additionally, the growth rate difference between corporate and residential deposits serves as an economic activity indicator, with a turning point anticipated around August [4] Current Trading Risks - The report identifies three key trading risks: a decline in financing, high valuations, and geopolitical risks, which have contributed to increased market volatility since September [5] - It emphasizes the need for risk control in the current environment, despite the presence of potential opportunities in various sectors [5] Sector Focus - The report suggests focusing on hard technology sectors, particularly those related to overseas computing and chip manufacturing, which are expected to benefit from increased demand and narrative-driven growth [5] - Specific areas of interest include innovative pharmaceuticals entering commercial phases, AI applications in media and internet sectors, and consumer electronics transitioning into new cycles [5]
