【申万固收】关税预期反复下的核心矛盾梳理与策略应对——近期市场反馈及思考3

Core Viewpoints - The article discusses the current concerns of investors regarding macro interest rates, credit, and convertible bonds, and provides insights on these topics [2][12]. Group 1: Bond Market Dynamics - Bond interest rates are positively correlated with domestic demand and negatively correlated with external demand, indicating that despite unexpected tariff changes, the core contradiction in the bond market remains focused on domestic demand [3][14]. - The liquidity environment is improving gradually, with funding rates decreasing from around 1.8% to a range of 1.4%-1.6%, suggesting that negative carry is becoming a thing of the past [4][19]. - The long-end interest rates, particularly the 10-year government bond, require a decline in deposit rates to facilitate further downward movement [20][21]. Group 2: Macro-Prudential Support - The People's Bank of China is focusing on macro-prudential measures to support the healthy development of the bond market, which includes monitoring risks and enhancing regulatory coordination [5][24]. - The current credit environment shows weak growth in broad credit, with local government bonds expanding, indicating that investors may face more interest rate risks [25]. Group 3: Credit Bond Market - The credit bond market is expected to see a shift towards stronger credit performance and weaker interest rates, driven by a decrease in deposit rates and increased allocation towards credit bonds by wealth management products [7][28]. - The performance of credit strategies is likely to favor short to medium-term bonds, particularly those with a maturity of 2-3 years, with a ranking of value from city investment bonds to industry bonds [8][30]. Group 4: Investment Opportunities - The recent surge in sci-tech bonds presents unique investment opportunities, especially with new issuers and private sector participation, although investors should remain cautious of potential credit risks [10][32]. - The recommendation for a near-term convertible bond strategy is based on the increasing market focus on bonds with shorter maturities, particularly those with a strong repayment capability [11][34].
