1. Report Industry Investment Rating - No information provided 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - The short - term view of government bond futures is mainly for shock consolidation.

Currently, the uncertainty of the tariff outlook is deepening, domestic macro - economic indicators are weakening marginally, the main tone of moderate monetary policy easing remains unchanged, and the market's expectation of future easing policies will rise, providing strong bottom support for government bond futures [4].
