Investment Rating - The report maintains a "Buy" rating for the banking industry, indicating an expected investment return exceeding the market benchmark index by over 15% in the next 6-12 months [1]. Core Insights - The April credit data showed a significant decline due to insufficient demand, hidden debt replacement, and seasonal factors, leading to a "smaller month" characteristic. In May, loan issuance is expected to seasonally increase but may still be constrained by a lack of effective demand, resulting in a year-on-year decrease [4][5]. - The report predicts that May's new RMB loans will be around 700 billion, with a growth rate of approximately 7.1%, slightly down by 0.1 percentage points from the end of April. The overall credit expansion is expected to remain weak due to insufficient effective demand [5][16]. - The report anticipates that the growth of social financing (社融) in May will be stable at around 1.9 trillion, maintaining a growth rate of 8.7%, supported mainly by government bond issuance [14][21]. Summary by Sections Credit Market Outlook - In May, the new RMB loans are expected to be around 700 billion, with a year-on-year decrease of 250 billion. The credit issuance will show a seasonal rebound but will still be affected by insufficient effective demand [4][5]. - The report highlights that the corporate sector remains the mainstay of credit expansion, while retail lending continues to show weak performance. Corporate medium and long-term loans are expected to support growth, while retail loans are anticipated to remain subdued due to weak consumer demand [5][7]. Social Financing - The report forecasts that social financing will see an addition of approximately 1.9 trillion in May, with a stable growth rate of 8.7%. This stability is largely attributed to the continued issuance of government bonds [14][21]. - The breakdown of social financing indicates that the new RMB loans will contribute around 500 billion, with a year-on-year decrease of about 300 billion. The report also notes a low strength of bill discounting compared to April [15][16]. Monetary Supply - The report expects a slight upward adjustment in M1 growth for May, while M2 growth is anticipated to remain stable at around 7.9% to 8%, similar to the end of April. The growth of M1 is influenced by seasonal factors and the low base effect from the previous year [18][21]. - The report discusses the impact of fiscal deposits on the growth of resident and corporate deposits, indicating that government deposits may exert a certain crowding-out effect on these deposits [19][21].

Core Insights - The report emphasizes that identifying the performance turning point is crucial for the market to move out of the bottom-seeking phase, with market bottoms typically leading performance turning points by 1-2 quarters [2] - The report highlights the importance of combining leading indicators with coincident indicators for better economic bottom assessments, as relying solely on coincident indicators may lead to delayed confirmations [2] - The key to breaking out of the bottom-seeking phase lies in the sustainability of M1 recovery, with household medium and long-term loans being a more critical indicator [2] Economic Indicators - The April manufacturing PMI significantly dropped to 49%, indicating a contraction for the first time since February, down from 50.5% [4] - M1 showed a slight year-on-year decline, while M2 increased, and the total social financing stock rose year-on-year, indicating a rebound in excess liquidity [7] - The total social financing increment in April was 1.16 trillion yuan, which is 12.243 billion yuan more than the same period last year, with a slight recovery in new government bonds but a negative year-on-year change in new RMB loans [9] Leading Indicators - The report notes that M2 leads M1, which in turn leads the stock market bottom, with M2 showing a year-on-year increase of 8% in April, up from 7% [7] - The social financing pulse increased to 26.16% in April, up from 25.41%, with new government bonds showing a slight recovery while new RMB loans turned negative [9] - The report indicates that the decline in household medium and long-term loans is closely related to the real estate sales cycle, with April showing a year-on-year decrease of 12.97% for household medium and long-term loans [12] Monetary Policy and Market Sentiment - The report discusses that the narrowing of the decline in household and corporate loans is essential for market recovery, with the April average DR007 rate marginally dropping to 1.73% [15] - The central bank's recent decision to lower the reserve requirement ratio and policy interest rates is aimed at stabilizing the market [15] - The report mentions that the recovery in social financing and M2, along with improved export performance, reflects a resilient Chinese economy despite the macroeconomic downturn [18]

The total new credit in March reached 3.64 trillion yuan, significantly exceeding the market expectation of 2.93 trillion yuan, with a year-on-year increase of 550 billion yuan [2][8][47] - The year-on-year growth rate of social financing stock rebounded by 0.2 percentage points to 8.4%, mainly driven by the advance of fiscal financing, which may become a key feature of fiscal policy execution this year.
