机构展望：2026年债市或在低利率与高波动中寻求平衡

Core Viewpoint - The bond market in 2026 is expected to navigate a landscape characterized by low interest rates and high volatility, with various factors influencing the market dynamics, including economic recovery, monetary policy adjustments, and fiscal measures [1][21]. Interest Rate Bonds - The bond market is anticipated to maintain a "low interest rate + high volatility" pattern, with limited downward space for interest rates but persistent fluctuations [2][3]. - The ten-year government bond yield is projected to fluctuate between 1.6% and 2.1%, with a focus on obtaining stable coupon income and increasing exposure to equity assets to enhance overall returns [2]. - Predictions indicate that the ten-year government bond yield may drop to around 1.6% in the first quarter but could rebound to approximately 1.9% later in the year due to economic recovery and inflation expectations [3]. - A bullish steepening of the yield curve is expected, with the ten-year government bond yield potentially declining to a range of 1.2% to 1.5% [4]. - The N-shaped interest rate trend is forecasted, with significant adjustments expected in the first quarter and the second half of the year, while the second quarter may present favorable trading opportunities [5]. Credit Bonds - The credit bond market is expected to exhibit low spreads, with a shift from simple "downward" strategies to more refined approaches focusing on regions, industries, and individual credits [6][8]. - If the wide credit process progresses smoothly, credit risks may ease, leading to a reduction in bond defaults [8]. - The focus should be on mid to long-term credit bonds, particularly those with potential for spread compression, while avoiding low-quality private real estate bonds and high-risk regional bonds [9][11]. Monetary Policy - The monetary policy is expected to remain moderately accommodative, with potential rate cuts and innovative tools to support liquidity and the yield curve [12][13]. - The window for rate cuts is anticipated to open between late 2025 and early 2026, with limited pressure on banks' net interest margins due to changing deposit structures [14]. - Structural monetary policy tools are expected to play a significant role, with a focus on targeted support rather than broad-based expansion [16]. External Environment - The narrowing of the China-U.S. interest rate differential is a key external factor, with expectations that the spread between ten-year U.S. and Chinese bonds will continue to narrow [18]. - The U.S. bond market is projected to experience a flattening yield curve, with ten-year U.S. Treasury yields expected to exceed 2.2% due to persistent inflation and employment recovery [19]. - Attention should be paid to the "local divergence" between China and overseas experiences, particularly regarding the impact of government leverage and inflation on interest rates [20].
