如期而至的流动性危机——写在美国股债汇三杀之时（民生宏观林彦）

Core Viewpoint - The article discusses the shift in market expectations from "American exceptionalism" to concerns about liquidity challenges in the U.S. market, particularly in light of upcoming corporate debt maturities and the potential impact of U.S. monetary policy [1][19]. Group 1: Market Conditions - The U.S. market recently experienced a rare simultaneous decline in stocks, bonds, and the dollar, indicating heightened market volatility and uncertainty [1]. - The dollar index has surpassed the psychological level of 100, with expectations that it may continue to rise in the second and third quarters of the year [3]. - Funds are shifting from high-yield U.S. markets to lower-yield, more liquid markets like Japan, raising concerns about global liquidity [5]. Group 2: Debt and Liquidity Risks - The article highlights that all crises are essentially debt crises disguised as other narratives, with historical examples illustrating how corporate debt maturity spikes can lead to market turmoil [7][10]. - Current liquidity indicators suggest that a liquidity crisis is just beginning, with specific metrics indicating that the market has not yet reached critical levels of risk [19]. - The article outlines three key observation markers for liquidity: the spread between onshore and offshore dollar liquidity, the dollar index's decline rate, and the OAS (option-adjusted spread) for U.S. investment-grade and high-yield bonds [16][18]. Group 3: Potential Scenarios - Three scenarios are proposed for future market developments: - Pessimistic: Both the White House and the Federal Reserve do not compromise, leading to a prolonged period of economic stagnation and declining risk appetite [22]. - Baseline: Either the White House or the Federal Reserve makes concessions, potentially stabilizing the market and improving risk sentiment [22]. - Optimistic: The White House proactively compromises, leading to a reversal in market sentiment before significant corporate bankruptcies occur [22].
