Group 1 - The continuous narrowing of the STRD credit spread is a noteworthy market signal amidst increased volatility in digital assets [1] - Despite short-term pressure on Bitcoin prices, funds are flowing towards high-yield instruments with structural safeguards, indicating a subtle shift in investor risk appetite [1] - The STRD spread relative to the US 10-year Treasury reached a temporary low, suggesting increased demand for the preferred stock and improved perception of the issuer's credit quality [1] Group 2 - STRD maintains a premium of approximately 320 basis points over STRF, attributed more to capital structure hierarchy than short-term solvency differences [2] - Recent ATM issuance data shows STRD dominating, with weekly fundraising reaching a new high, reflecting a concentration of market funds towards higher-yielding subordinated preferred stocks [2] - The changes in STRD spreads and issuance rhythm may serve as important indicators for observing market sentiment and capital flows [2]

Report Summary 1. Report Industry Investment Rating No industry investment rating is provided in the report. 2. Core Viewpoints - In the primary market, the issuance scale of credit bonds increased month - on - month, with the issuance amount of corporate bonds, medium - term notes, and commercial paper increasing, while that of enterprise bonds and private placement notes decreasing. The net financing of credit bonds also increased month - on - month, with corporate bonds and medium - term notes showing an increase in net financing, and the net financing of enterprise bonds and private placement notes being negative [2][14][60]. - In the secondary market, the trading volume of credit bonds increased month - on - month, and the trading volume of each variety increased. Most of the yields of credit bonds declined, and most of the credit spreads of medium - and short - term notes, enterprise bonds, and urban investment bonds widened. Most spreads are at historical lows [2][19][60]. - From an absolute return perspective, the supply shortage and relatively strong allocation demand will drive the credit bond market to continue its recovery. In the long run, the yield is still in a downward channel, and the strategy of increasing allocation during adjustments is still feasible. Currently, the cost - effectiveness of most varieties has decreased, and caution is needed when chasing high prices. The coupon strategy can be moderately optimistic in the current allocation, and the trading strategy can remain optimistic [2][60]. - From a relative return perspective, although the compression space of credit spreads at all tenors is insufficient at present, the probability of a one - sided correction in the short term is also low. Therefore, investors can still achieve the coupon strategy through credit downgrading and extending the duration according to their own capital characteristics, but they need to pay attention to the rhythm during the allocation [2][60]. - For real estate bonds, as the market gradually stabilizes, funds with high risk appetite can consider early layout, focusing on enterprises with outstanding performance in new financing and sales recovery. The focus of allocation is still on central and state - owned enterprises with stable historical valuations and excellent performance, as well as high - quality private enterprise bonds with strong guarantees. Investors can extend the duration to increase returns and also appropriately play the trading opportunities brought by the valuation repair of bonds of over - sold real estate enterprises [3][65]. - For urban investment bonds, under the principle of coordinating development and security, the probability of default is very low, and they can still be a key allocation variety for credit bonds. Investors can consider a credit - downgrading strategy for the medium - and short - term in the allocation, and choose to extend the duration for high - grade bonds in the trading [4][66]. 3.

1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - In 2025, the number and scale of credit bond defaults decreased significantly, and the credit environment improved. The number of defaulted bonds was 16, with a total default amount of 15.084 billion yuan, a year-on-year decrease of 54 bonds and 77.145 billion yuan respectively [1][11]. - All first - time defaulting entities in 2025 were non - state - owned enterprises, and the number of defaults in the real estate industry decreased. Looking ahead to 2026, real estate may still be the main risk point in the credit bond market, and local risks of some weak - qualified small and medium - sized financial institutions should be vigilant, but the probability of a systemic impact on the market is low [1][13]. - The default rate dropped to a historically low level. In 2025, the marginal default rate was 0.22%, the second - lowest since 2014 [1][22]. - Last week, after an important meeting released a signal of monetary easing, credit bond yields turned downward in the second half of the week but the repair momentum was weak. Looking forward, due to the impact of wealth management funds returning to the balance sheet at the end of the quarter, incremental funds may be limited, and there is insufficient impetus to compress credit spreads. It is recommended to focus on the coupon strategy [2]. 3. Summary According to the Directory 3.1 2025 Credit Bond Market Default Feature Summary - **Default Quantity and Scale Decreased Significantly, Credit Environment Improved**: In 2025, the number and amount of defaulted credit bonds continued the downward trend of the previous year. There were 16 defaulted bonds with a total amount of 15.084 billion yuan, a year - on - year decrease of 54 bonds and 77.145 billion yuan respectively. From 2014 - 2025, substantial defaults were the main type in the credit bond market (73.4%), and in 2025, there were 11 substantial defaults and 5 extensions [11]. - **First - time Defaulting Entities were All Non - state - owned Enterprises, Real Estate Industry Default Quantity Decreased**: The 16 first - time defaulted bonds in 2025 came from 12 non - state - owned enterprise issuers, covering 6 industries such as real estate and non - bank finance. Historically, non - state - owned enterprises had significantly more defaults than state - owned enterprises. The real estate industry was still the main risk point in 2026, and local risks of some small and medium - sized financial institutions should be watched out for [13][17]. - **Default Rate Dropped to a Historically Low Level**: In 2025, the marginal default rate was 0.22%, the second - lowest since 2014. The overall recovery rate from 2014 to 2025 was 13.76%, with state - owned enterprises having a higher recovery rate of 27.12% than non - state - owned enterprises at 10.28% [22]. 3.2 Credit Bond Yield Overview - Last week, after an important meeting released a signal of monetary easing, credit bond yields turned downward in the second half of the week but the repair momentum was weak. Overall, credit bond yields showed mixed trends, with financial bonds performing better than non - financial credit bonds, and the 3 - year non - financial credit bonds performing better [27]. - Wealth management scale and the proportion of broken - net products decreased. The average yield of wealth management products had been declining for 6 consecutive weeks since early November. Looking forward, due to the impact of wealth management funds returning to the balance sheet at the end of the quarter, incremental funds may be limited, and there is insufficient impetus to compress credit spreads. It is recommended to focus on the coupon strategy. Institutions with stable liability ends can moderately participate in 3 - year medium - and high - grade bank secondary and perpetual bonds and securities firm subordinated bonds with relatively high spreads [29][36]. 3.3 Primary Market - **Issuance Volume**: Last week, the issuance scale of credit bonds increased both month - on - month and year - on - year, while the net financing scale decreased month - on - month and increased year - on - year.

The issuance terms of industrial and financial bonds decreased, while that of urban investment bonds increased [47]. - **Cancellation of Issuance**: The number and scale of cancelled credit bond issuances decreased last week [53]. 3.4 Secondary Market - **Trading Volume**: Except for the trading volume of securities firm subordinated bonds, the trading volume of other types of credit bonds rebounded last week, with the trading volume of bank secondary capital bonds increasing by over 13 billion yuan. The trading terms of different types of bonds showed different trends in terms of remaining maturity and implied rating [57][58]. - **Trading Liquidity**: The turnover rates of urban investment bonds, industrial bonds, and financial bonds increased last week. The turnover rates of different terms of each type of bond also showed different trends [59]. - **Spread Tracking**: Last week, most urban investment bond spreads widened, with the 10 - year AA + grade urban investment bond spreads widening the most. Most industrial bond spreads also widened, with the real estate industry having the largest spread widening for both AAA and AA grades. Most bank secondary and perpetual bond spreads narrowed, while the spreads of securities firm subordinated bonds widened across the board, and most insurance subordinated bond spreads narrowed [65][73][76]. 3.5 Weekly Hot Bonds Overview Based on qeubee's bond liquidity scoring, the top 20 urban investment bonds, industrial bonds, and financial bonds in terms of liquidity scores were selected for investors' reference [80]. 3.6 Credit Rating Adjustment Review Last week, 3 bonds had their debt ratings downgraded, and there were no upgrades [84].

1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. 2. Core Views of the Report - In 2026, the demand for credit bonds may slow down. The incremental funds on the demand - side may slow, and the supply of industrial bonds is expected to continue to increase, while the credit bond market still faces a "yield shortage" [1][2]. - In 2026, credit spreads may show characteristics of low - level and high - volatility. There are structural opportunities in industrial bonds, including opportunities driven by the opening of amortized debt funds, trading opportunities for ultra - long bonds, exploration of perpetual bond spreads, and opportunities for sci - tech bond component bonds [3][5]. 3. Summary Based on Relevant Catalogs 3.1 2025 Industrial Bond Supply and Performance - Driven by the new regulations on sci - tech bonds, the supply of industrial bonds increased in 2025, with central enterprises as the main force. From January to November 2025, industrial bond issuance was 7.5 trillion yuan, a year - on - year increase of 798.1 billion yuan, and net financing was 2.18 trillion yuan, a year - on - year increase of 478 billion yuan. Among them, sci - tech industrial bond issuance was 1.51 trillion yuan, and net financing accounted for 54% of industrial bond net financing [12]. - The credit spreads of industrial bonds in 2025 experienced a process of widening, narrowing, and low - level oscillation. The performance of long - duration varieties was weaker than that of medium - and short - duration varieties, and there were differences among industries [26]. 3.2 2026 Credit Bond Demand 3.2.1 Demand - side: Incremental Funds Slow Down - Although the decline in deposit rates may continue to drive the migration of residents' assets to wealth management products, the proportion of wealth management products allocating credit bonds may be difficult to increase due to the completion of the rectification of net - value smoothing means and the low - spread environment. In Q2 2025, the proportion of wealth management products allocating credit bonds was 38.8%, a decrease of 2.3 percentage points compared with Q4 2024 [1][36]. - The new regulations on fund sales fees may cause redemption pressure on bond funds, especially short - term and medium - short - term bond funds. Assuming different redemption ratios, the scale of bonds involved is about 1.04 - 2.07 trillion yuan, including about 330.9 - 661.8 billion yuan of credit bonds [1][42]. - In 2026, amortized debt funds will be concentratedly opened, with an expected scale of over 600 billion yuan. If some products switch to a credit style, it may boost the demand for credit bonds with specific maturities [2][50]. - Credit bond ETFs are not affected by the new regulations and are expected to attract some incremental funds, but the increase may be less than that in 2025. In 2025, the scale of credit bond ETFs increased significantly, but in 2026, the market may not see a large - scale new issuance [52][53]. 3.2.2 Supply - side: Industrial Bond Supply Continues to Increase, and the "Yield Shortage" Remains In 2026, due to the low bond - issuing interest rate and the "green channel" for sci - tech bond issuance, the supply of industrial bonds is expected to continue to increase, while the issuance policy for urban investment bonds remains strict, and new financing is restricted. The credit bond market still faces a "yield shortage" [2]. 3.3 Structural Opportunities for Industrial Bonds under Low Spreads - **Opportunities Driven by the Opening of Amortized Debt Funds**: In 2026, the opening of amortized debt funds with a 5 - year - around closed - end period may drive the allocation demand for medium - and high - rated industrial bonds with a 5 - year - around maturity. 30 industrial entities with cost - effective 4 - 5 - year bonds are recommended [5][62]. - **Duration Strategy: Grasp the Trading Rhythm**: When the 10 - year Treasury bond has a downward trend, or when the long - end interest rate fluctuates with limited upward space, and the long - duration credit spreads break through or approach the mean + 2 times the standard deviation, and at the same time, the net purchase scale of credit bonds is relatively high, the net purchase scale of 7 - 10 - year credit bonds by funds rebounds, and the number of transactions and the proportion of credit bonds with a maturity of over 5 years increase, it is a relatively good time to trade ultra - long credit bonds. When the long - duration credit spreads narrow significantly and the trading activity of long - duration credit bonds is extremely high, it is necessary to be vigilant about the market reversal and grasp the profit - taking opportunity. 39 industrial entities with relatively active ultra - long bond transactions are selected [65][78][79]. - **Exploration of Industrial Bond Perpetual Variety Spreads**: As of December 5, 2025, the outstanding scale of public perpetual bonds of industrial entities was 2.56 trillion yuan. The spread of 3 - year perpetual industrial bonds is currently at a relatively cost - effective level. According to historical and seasonal rules, the first quarter may be a good time to allocate perpetual bonds, and profit - taking can be considered when the spread narrows to a low level and the buying power of credit bonds weakens. 44 industrial entities with cost - effective 2 - 3 - year perpetual bonds are listed [88][93]. - **Opportunities for the Liquidity Spread of Sci - tech Bond Component Bonds**: In 2026, sci - tech bonds are still in an expansion cycle. Investors should pay close attention to the changes in the net value and scale of sci - tech bond ETFs and the trading activity of sci - tech bond component bonds. They can also judge the cost - effectiveness based on the spread between non - component bonds and component bonds of the same entity with the same remaining maturity. For "quasi - component bonds" in primary issuance, if the coupon rate of new bonds is higher than the valuation of component bonds, investors can participate in primary subscriptions to obtain price - difference benefits [95][97].

Group 1 - The core view of the report indicates that the credit spread in 2025 has compressed significantly, particularly for lower-rated bonds, suggesting a trend towards "consolidation" in the credit bond market [2][3] - In 2025, the credit bond market outperformed government bonds, with a recorded return of 1.69% compared to 0.48% for government bonds, and the compression of credit spreads was most pronounced in lower-rated bonds [8][11] - The report anticipates that while the credit bond market does not have a bearish foundation for 2026, there may be risks of widening credit spreads, particularly as the supply of credit bonds may increase relative to government bonds [3][37] Group 2 - The analysis of market trends shows that the supply of credit bonds is weaker than that of government bonds, with demand remaining relatively stable, which has contributed to the compression of credit spreads [12][17] - Factors influencing demand include an expansion in bank credit and a decrease in funding rates, which may support the demand for credit bonds, particularly from non-bank investors [17][20] - The report highlights that the demand for credit bonds may weaken in 2026 due to regulatory changes and a potential decline in the attractiveness of credit bonds for wealth management products [41][44] Group 3 - The report suggests a focus on specific sectors for bond selection, recommending high-quality provincial AA-rated bonds, market-oriented entities, and those not on the withdrawal list for city investment bonds [4][60] - For financial bonds, the report advises attention to the value of older bonds and the structural opportunities arising from the consolidation of rural commercial banks, while avoiding bonds from smaller banks with low capital adequacy ratios [4][65] - In the industrial bond sector, the report recommends focusing on central enterprise bonds and high-quality regional state-owned enterprise bonds following risk shocks [4][69]

Core Viewpoint - The recent performance decline of several well-known bond private equity funds is attributed to the volatility of Vanke bonds and the overall weakness in the bond market, prompting fund managers to enhance their management capabilities to remain competitive [1][5]. Group 1: Performance Decline of Bond Private Equity Funds - Many renowned bond private equity products have experienced significant declines, with a medium-sized bond private equity fund in Beijing seeing its net value drop for three consecutive weeks, resulting in negative returns over the past six months [3]. - A Shanghai-based bond private equity fund, established in May, has reported losses exceeding 2%, with a more than 5% decline in the last two weeks, contrasting sharply with the manager's previous stable performance [3]. Group 2: Impact of Vanke Bonds - The adjustment of Vanke bonds since late November has led to substantial declines, with some varieties dropping over 70%. On December 10, Vanke bonds saw a brief rebound, but by December 11, they fell again, with "21 Vanke 06" dropping over 18% and several others also experiencing declines exceeding 10% [5]. - The recent performance fluctuations of some bond private equity products are linked to the Vanke bond situation and the new public fund fee regulations, compounded by continuous net redemptions from public funds, exacerbating the performance decline of certain bond private equity funds [5]. Group 3: Challenges in Fixed Income Strategies - The fixed income strategy is currently under pressure, with the ten-year government bond yield fluctuating between 1.6% and 1.9%, and the low-risk interest rate at historical lows, limiting the operational space for traditional bond strategies [7]. - The average yield of mid-to-long-term pure bond products this year has only slightly exceeded the risk-free rate, falling short of many investors' expectations for stable returns [7]. Group 4: Industry Response to Market Changes - Fund managers are advised to reassess their holdings, avoid excessive concentration, and enhance liquidity considerations while conducting stress tests. In a low-interest-rate environment, the yield expectations for pure bond products should be adjusted to avoid blindly pursuing credit downgrades [10]. - The industry is shifting from traditional pure bond strategies to multi-strategy products to diversify risks and enhance returns, incorporating liquid bond ETFs and trading strategies to create lower-volatility strategy combinations [10][11]. - The future competitiveness of fixed income institutions will largely depend on their ability to provide attractive, compounding "fixed income bases" in a low-interest environment and to effectively layer multiple assets and strategies on top of this base [11].

Core Viewpoint - The recent volatility in the bond market, particularly influenced by Vanke's debt issues, has led to significant performance declines among several well-known bond private equity firms, with some experiencing unprecedented losses [1][3][7]. Group 1: Performance Decline of Bond Private Equity - Several renowned bond private equity products have recently faced substantial declines, with a medium-sized bond private equity product in Beijing seeing its net value drop for three consecutive weeks, resulting in negative returns over the past six months [3]. - A Shanghai-based bond private equity firm has reported a dramatic drop in multiple products, with a product launched in May losing over 2% and experiencing a more than 5% decline in the last two weeks, contrasting sharply with the manager's historically stable performance [5]. - The performance fluctuations of some bond private equity products are linked to Vanke's debt situation, which has seen significant adjustments since late November, with some bonds dropping over 70% [7]. Group 2: Market Environment and Challenges - The bond market is currently under pressure, with the ten-year government bond yield fluctuating between 1.6% and 1.9%, indicating a low-risk interest rate environment that limits operational space for traditional bond strategies [8]. - The average returns of long-term pure bond products this year have only slightly exceeded the risk-free rate, falling short of investor expectations for stable yet aggressive returns [8]. - The volatility in the bond market should be viewed as an isolated credit event, as Vanke's liquidity pressures and asset structure differ fundamentally from those of core state-owned enterprises [8]. Group 3: Industry Response to Market Changes - Bond private equity managers are advised to reassess their holdings, avoid excessive concentration, and enhance liquidity considerations while conducting stress tests [9]. - There is a shift from traditional pure bond strategies to multi-strategy products to diversify risks and enhance returns, with an emphasis on incorporating liquid bond ETFs and trading strategies [9]. - The future competitiveness of fixed-income institutions will largely depend on their ability to provide attractive, compounding "fixed-income bases" in a low-interest environment and to effectively integrate multi-asset and multi-strategy approaches [10].
