Report Summary 1. Report Industry Investment Rating The document does not mention the industry investment rating. 2. Core Viewpoints - Through multiple - dimensional calculations such as treasury bond futures trends, new local bond issuance pricing, and historical experience of China Development Bank bond implicit tax rates, the possible tax rate space after the new bond interest VAT regulation may be significantly lower than 6% [3][38]. - To cooperate with the transition period at the initial stage of the implementation of the new VAT regulation, monetary policy is expected to remain loose in the short - term [3][38]. - The bond market may still be supported in the short - term, but the odds space is limited, and it may face headwinds in the medium - term [4][39]. 3. Summary by Relevant Catalogs 3.1 Treasury Bond Futures Tax Rate Trading Perspective - The implicit trading VAT rate of treasury bond futures may be between 0.9% - 3.1%. After the new VAT regulation was announced on August 1, 2025, the price changes of TS/TF/T 2063 contracts largely reflected the impact of the new regulation, considering the third - quarter treasury bond issuance plan and futures contract maturity dates [10][14]. 3.2 Latest Local Bond Issuance Pricing Perspective - The implicit VAT rate of local bond issuance pricing may be between 0.9% - 3.2%. Based on the yield levels of tax - free old bonds in the same region and similar maturities as a benchmark, the implicit VAT rate of the new local bonds issued on August 8, 2025, was estimated [18][23]. 3.3 China Development Bank Bond Historical Experience Perspective - From the historical experience of China Development Bank bonds, the subsequent implicit VAT rate may be between 0.7% - 3.1%. Although China Development Bank bonds are subject to a 25% income tax on interest income, the implicit tax rate is often much lower than 25% due to trading advantages, and has mostly been between 3% - 13% in recent years [27][29]. 3.4 Monetary Policy Outlook - **Static Calculation**: From a static perspective, assuming that VAT is fully borne by investors, the new VAT regulation may bring about 230 billion yuan in fiscal revenue in a stable state. The average annual new fiscal revenue is about 2.71 billion yuan [32][34]. - **Need for Monetary Policy Coordination**: From a dynamic perspective, while the fiscal revenue increases due to VAT, the interest - payment cost also rises to some extent. Therefore, to reduce fiscal costs and enhance tax effects, monetary policy is expected to remain loose in the short - term [37]. - **Bond Market Outlook**: August - October may be a volatile period for the bond market. The short - to medium - term bonds may perform steadily, and the yield curve may steepen. The 10 - year treasury bond around 1.7% may not be cost - effective. The pressure in August may not be significant, but the transition between the third and fourth quarters may be a risk window [6][40].

Core Viewpoint - The Ministry of Finance and the State Taxation Administration announced the resumption of VAT on interest income from newly issued government bonds, local government bonds, and financial bonds starting from August 8, 2025, which has led to mixed reactions in the bond market [1][2]. Group 1: Market Reactions - The bond futures market showed strong performance, reflecting intense speculation among investors regarding the announcement [1]. - Analysts noted that the demand for existing bonds increased post-announcement, but expectations for a significant decline in interest rates in the short term should be tempered [1]. - The potential widening of the yield spread between new and old bonds could be around 10 basis points due to the VAT implications, although uncertainties remain [1]. Group 2: Impact on Bond Market - The resumption of VAT is expected to narrow the yield spread between credit bonds and interest rate bonds by 30 to 50 basis points, as the tax-exempt advantage of interest rate bonds diminishes [1]. - New government bonds may see an increase in issuance rates by 5 to 10 basis points to compensate for the tax burden, while the attractiveness of existing bonds may rise [1]. - Different tax rates applicable to various financial institutions could lead to differentiated investment behaviors, potentially attracting bank funds into interest rate bonds through broader fund products [1]. Group 3: Future Considerations - Post-August 8, attention will be on the auction results of newly issued government bonds and other influencing factors such as real estate policy adjustments and inflation stabilization [2]. - The macroeconomic environment and market sentiment are expected to stabilize following recent negotiations and meetings, with a focus on domestic fundamentals and liquidity changes [2]. - The weak performance of government bond futures in July was attributed to significant sell-offs triggered by rising stock and commodity markets rather than fundamental changes [2].

Core Viewpoints - The central bank's continuous net investment maintains loose market liquidity, and the term spread further widens, reflecting a certain expectation of short - term liquidity loosening. - Amid complex overseas situations and domestic stock market fluctuations, the bond market still has short - term repair momentum.
