中金：利率传导到了哪一步?

Core Viewpoint - The liquidity in the market has been tight since the beginning of the year, with short-term interest rates rising without immediate transmission to long-term rates due to several factors, including increased demand for long-term bonds and changing market expectations regarding interest rate cuts [1][2]. Group 1: Initial Conditions for Short-Term to Long-Term Rate Transmission - The initial lack of transmission from short-term to long-term interest rates is attributed to three main factors: increased demand for long-term bonds due to the "opening red" period and deposit self-discipline, heightened concerns over tariffs leading to increased risk premiums, and a stronger "substitution effect" of long-term bonds over short-term bonds [4][5][6]. Group 2: Recent Developments in Rate Transmission - Since February 6, the pressure from short-term rates has begun to transmit to long-term rates, with the 10-year government bond yield rising from 1.60% to 1.76%. This change is driven by three mechanisms: a decrease in the pulse demand for long-term bonds, a marginal correction in interest rate cut expectations, and an increase in the opportunity cost of long-term bond investments [8][9][10]. Group 3: Future Outlook for Long-Term Bond Yields - The tightening liquidity environment may lead to a return to a more stable long-term bond yield, with expectations that the liquidity environment will shift back to a more accommodative stance. The future trajectory will depend on the extent of fiscal stimulus and the strength of economic recovery [12].
