智通财经APP注意到，随着流动性提供者日益被流动性接受者取代，公司债券正面临急剧下跌的风险。 摩根大通CEO杰米·戴蒙警告称，当前情况与 2008 年金融危机前的时代有相似之处。他的担忧并非空穴 来风，但如果投资者只看信用利差(目前正接近历史低点)，是察觉不到这一点的。 戴蒙在公司年度投资者更新会上坦言："当所有人都在轻松赚钱、表现亮眼时...你会觉得自己很傻，但 这感觉确实很棒。"他接着说："然后当我思考所有正在发生的因素时，我会深吸一口气告诉自己：'小 心！'遗憾的是，我们在2005、2006和2007年确实目睹过几乎相同的情况——水涨船高，人人都在大笔 盈利。我看到有些人正在做蠢事。他们只是为了创造净利息收入而在做愚蠢的事。" 事实上，自 2024 年以来，在约 16 万亿美元的流通规模中，ETF 是唯一一个持仓占比上升的主要板 块。其他可能提供流动性或寻求在价格下跌后机会性买入的板块——如银行、养老基金和海外投资者 ——都减少了市场参与度。 银行近乎"逃离"公司债市场发生在金融危机之后。这归因于限制自营交易活动的《沃尔克规则》，以及 要求银行持有更多高质量流动性资产(HQLA)的强化流动性监管，同时持 ...
