Report Summary 1. Report Industry Investment Rating No information provided. 2. Core View - Today, Treasury bond futures fluctuated and sorted out, with a slight increase. The manufacturing PMI in September continued to improve, but the price index was still weak, indicating hidden concerns on the macro - demand side. Future monetary policy remains biased towards easing, providing strong support for Treasury bond futures. However, in the short term, the possibility of a comprehensive interest rate cut has greatly diminished, and the rising risk appetite in the stock market has inhibited the demand for Treasury bonds, resulting in insufficient upward momentum for Treasury bond futures.
