Fiscal Policy Insights - The current macroeconomic policy framework has changed significantly, with a focus on fiscal policy rather than solely relying on historical experiences [1][3] - Fiscal policy is theoretically a counter-cyclical tool, but in practice, it often exhibits pro-cyclical characteristics due to various constraints [3][7] - Recent years have seen fiscal expenditure growth lagging behind GDP growth, primarily due to the limitations of land finance [6][7] Government Debt and Leverage - China's government leverage ratio is relatively low compared to global standards, providing room for increased borrowing [9] - The strict constraints on government borrowing are loosening, allowing for better counter-cyclical adjustments in fiscal policy [13] Monetary Policy Dynamics - Monetary policy is increasingly resembling fiscal policy, with a notable decline in the sensitivity of financing demand to interest rates in a low-rate environment [15][18] - The current monetary policy is characterized by a "factually tight" approach, where policy rate adjustments lag behind market movements, creating potential upward risks for interest rates [17] Investment Strategy - The investment strategy for the year should focus on aligning with fiscal policy, particularly in the areas of technology and consumption [27] - There is a shift from debt investment to equity investment in public finance, with state-owned capital increasingly supporting technology sectors [27][28] Consumption Support - Fiscal support for consumption is evident through large-scale replacement policies, which have positively impacted sales in sectors like automobiles and home appliances [30] - The focus on "inclusive consumption" reflects a shift from pre-2020 consumption upgrade models, emphasizing fairness and broad access [32]
