Group 1: Market Overview - The bond market faced overall pressure in Q3, with a significant "see-saw" effect between stocks and bonds. In July, the bond market was under pressure due to the implementation of "anti-involution" policies and expectations of new policies, while commodities and the stock market rose. In August, the "anti-involution" trading cooled down, commodity prices fell, but the stock market remained strong, leading to further weakness in the bond market. In September, the stock market experienced high volatility, and futures bonds fluctuated widely [1] Group 2: Manufacturing Sector - The manufacturing PMI for September was reported at 49.8%, a marginal improvement of 0.4 percentage points from August, indicating a slight recovery in manufacturing activity. The production index rose to 51.9%, the highest in nearly six months, while the new orders index increased to 49.7%, suggesting improved market demand. The new export orders index also saw a recovery, rising by 0.6 percentage points to 47.8% [2][3] Group 3: Price and Inventory Dynamics - The factory price index continued to contract, while the raw material purchase price index remained in the expansion zone, indicating pressure on corporate profit margins. In September, the raw material inventory index rose to 48.5%, reflecting proactive stocking behavior driven by production expansion. The finished goods inventory index increased to 48.2%. Large enterprises maintained a PMI of 51.0%, while medium and small enterprises showed slight declines [3] Group 4: Trade Performance - In September, exports grew by 8.3% year-on-year, surpassing expectations, while imports increased by 7.4%, also exceeding forecasts. The growth in exports was primarily driven by non-U.S. markets, with significant increases in exports to ASEAN and the EU. The structure of exports improved, with mechanical and electrical products maintaining a stable share of over 60% [4] Group 5: Outlook for Q4 - Looking ahead to Q4, despite challenges such as high base effects and trade frictions, exports are expected to maintain positive growth supported by demand from ASEAN, the EU, and Africa. The overall bond market is entering a phase of clearing negative sentiment, but a trend-driven market will depend on renewed expectations for monetary easing. The current economic fundamentals remain resilient, limiting the likelihood of comprehensive interest rate cuts in the short term [5]
