- Report Industry Investment Rating There is no information provided regarding the report's industry investment rating. 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - In Q2 2025, the bond market environment was more favorable than in Q1. After the relaxation of funds, some bond varieties returned to a "positive carry" state, leading to an increased willingness among bond funds to add leverage, actively extend durations, and explore credit spreads, resulting in a rise in bond market congestion. The scale of money market funds reached a new high, and after the funds were relaxed, the risk of negative deviation significantly decreased. The product allocation preference shifted from fund lending to bank deposits [3][5]. - Looking ahead, due to factors such as the upcoming approval of policy - based financial instruments, continuous risk - preference disturbances, and insufficient expectations of interest rate cuts, bond market trading will enter a "hard mode". The 10 - year Treasury bond yield may rise slightly to a core fluctuation range of 1.65 - 1.75%. It is advisable to conduct bond swaps and take profits when market sentiment improves. In addition, although the market is relatively friendly in early August, there are still disturbances from factors such as expectations of broad - credit policies and risk preferences. During bond market adjustments, a fund redemption wave may be triggered, further amplifying market volatility. Institutions should maintain account liquidity and seize small - band trading opportunities [4][166]. 3.
