Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the given content Core View - Similar to the Bank of Japan, the Fed's bond - buying policy was initially a tool for liquidity adjustment. In 2008, the sub - prime mortgage crisis led to systemic financial risks and exhausted traditional interest - rate cut space, prompting the Fed to turn to QE. In 2020, the COVID - 19 outbreak restarted QE. In the short term, the impact of the QE policy on Treasury yields evolves more through investors' expectations, while in the long term, the US QE significantly affects long - term Treasury yields. Large - scale bond purchases provide liquidity to the financial market and drive down interest rates to some extent [1][66]. Summary by Different Stages First Stage (Before 2008): Traditional Monetary Policy Tool for Providing Liquidity - **Macro Background and Policy Objectives**: To meet the continuous expansionary demand for base money, the Fed used open - market operations (permanent and temporary) to control the money supply and influence interest rates. Asset purchases mainly supported currency issuance, while repurchase transactions smoothed liquidity disturbances [14][15]. - **Bond - buying Method**: One - way purchases in the primary and secondary markets. The Fed usually conducted weekly bond - buying operations in the secondary market through the SOMA. From 2004 - 2006, it carried out 40, 24, and 39 cash - bond transactions respectively, with average single - time increases of $1.28 billion, $1.04 billion, and $0.92 billion [20]. - **Impact on the Bond Market**: The Fed's bond - buying had a relatively limited impact on the bond market as its core goal was to limit the impact on normal market functions and the purchase scale was generally small. US Treasury yields were mainly determined by market expectations of future economic growth, inflation, and policy rates [38]. Second Stage (2008 - 2014): Quantitative Easing after the Sub - prime Mortgage Crisis - **Macro Background and Policy Objectives**: The 2008 sub - prime mortgage crisis led to a liquidity crisis. The Fed implemented QE to stabilize the financial and real - estate markets, lower long - term interest rates, and stimulate the economy by purchasing assets and expanding its balance sheet [39][40]. - **Bond - buying Method**: Continuous purchases in the secondary market. The QE process included three rounds and a twist operation. QE1 (2008.11 - 2010.3) had a total scale of $1.725 trillion; QE2 (2010.11 - 2011.6) involved buying $600 billion of long - term Treasuries; the twist operation (2011.9 - 2012.12) sold short - term Treasuries and bought an equal amount of long - term Treasuries; QE3 (2012.9 - 2014.10) was an open - ended plan. The Fed started tapering in 2013 [41][44]. - **Impact on the Bond Market**: The actual bond - buying operations had inconsistent effects on bond yields. After the QE policy was introduced, the bond market traded more based on investors' expectations. In the long run, the QE policy significantly reduced US bond yields. From October 2008 to October 2014, the yields of 1 - year and 10 - year Treasuries dropped by 124BP and 166BP respectively [47][48]. Third Stage (2015 - 2018): Difficult Exploration of Normalization - **Macro Background and Policy Objectives**: With the US economy's moderate recovery, the Fed aimed to exit the ultra - loose policy through passive balance - sheet reduction to avoid asset price bubbles and financial risks [49][50]. - **Bond - buying Method**: No reinvestment after bond maturity. The Fed raised interest rates 9 times from the end of 2015 to the end of 2018 and started QT in October 2017, gradually reducing its bond holdings [51][52]. - **Impact on the Bond Market**: After the QT policy was implemented, US Treasury yields continued to rise. It is believed that balance - sheet reduction increased Treasury yields as it meant less demand for US Treasuries and occurred during the late stage of the interest - rate hike cycle [55]. Fourth Stage (2019 - 2022): Unprecedented Response to the Pandemic - **Macro Background and Policy Objectives**: The COVID - 19 outbreak in 2020 led to an economic slowdown and market panic. The Fed launched an "unlimited QE" to start the crisis - response mode [56][57]. - **Bond - buying Method**: Unlimited QE - Taper - Balance - sheet reduction. The Fed cut interest rates to zero in March 2020, launched a $700 billion QE plan, and then an "unlimited QE". It started tapering in November 2021 and planned to end QE in mid - 2022. Balance - sheet reduction started in May 2022 [58][60][61]. - **Impact on the Bond Market**: After the "unlimited QE" was announced, US bond yields declined. However, due to factors such as investors' expectations and economic fluctuations, the ultimate impact of the Fed's bond - buying was limited. In 2022, the Fed's bond - buying failed to lower bond yields [63][65].

值得注意的是,尽管标普500指数成分股公司第二季度营收同比增长4.8%,但经汇率调整后,销售增长速度有所放缓。尤其是中小型公司的实际营收出 现负增长。 从现在到年底,流动性风险的管理将成为美联储和投资者的重要关注点。7月的FOMC会议纪要提到,TGA(财政账户)重建可能会影响货币市场的波 动和资金状况。尤其是随着TGA重建和SLR(杠杆率规定)规则变化的交替,以及量化紧缩(QT)结束,这些都值得关注。 高盛认为,QT可能会在 10月结束,因为资金压力加剧。 欧洲市场:意大利和法国风险溢价缩小 高盛顶级交易员Mark Wilson指出,2025年夏季中国股市成为最意外亮点。中国股市表现超出预期,如今沪指破十年新高,散户融资近2015年峰值,成 交额连续12天超2万亿元创纪录。而从更长周期来看,中国股市的净多头仓位仍处于较低水平,5年区间仅处56分位。 高盛交易员Mark Wilson近日指出,回顾2025年迄今的表现,中国股市无疑是夏季最大的亮点之一。中国股市表现远超预期,成为市场中最出色的交易 机会之一。 Wilson提到,中国股市依然保持低估值,持仓比例偏低,而交易动能持续增强。这种市场状态本身可能推动股市 ...

Core Points - The Federal Reserve maintains the Overnight Reverse Repurchase Agreement (RRP) as part of its open market operations, allowing non-bank entities to store cash in exchange for a set interest rate [1] - The usage of RRP peaked at $2.5 trillion at the end of 2022 but has since declined over 95% to a recent low of $22 billion [1] - The decline in RRP usage indicates a shift in liquidity management, with the U.S. Treasury issuing more short-term bonds to cover deficits, drawing funds away from RRP [3] Group 1 - The Federal Reserve still holds $3.3 trillion in reserves, down from a peak of $4.2 trillion in 2022, despite the reduced RRP usage [4] - The low RRP usage suggests that short-term interest rates will be more market-driven, potentially leading to greater volatility during tax payment periods and quarter-ends [5] - The depletion of RRP and the Treasury's bond issuance will directly consume bank reserves, which are crucial for market stability and the pace of the Fed's balance sheet reduction [5] Group 2 - The proposed "Fiscal Reserve Interest Accountability Act" could eliminate the Fed's ability to pay interest on reserves, potentially leading to a significant outflow of the $3.3 trillion in reserves back to the private market [6] - This legislative change may shift liquidity dynamics, favoring risk assets but could impair the Fed's ability to set short-term interest rates, increasing volatility during critical financial periods [7] - The current environment differs from the pre-2008 era, raising questions about the Fed's capacity to manage short-term rates without the ability to pay interest on reserves [6][7]

美国通胀黏性凸显政策困局 美联储降息博弈剑拔弩张
Xin Hua Cai Jing· 2025-08-14 05:33
新华财经北京8月14日电(崔凯)美国经济正站在十字路口:一边是顽固的核心通胀与暗流涌动的关税 成本,另一边是显露疲态的就业市场与政治施压下的货币政策抉择。与此同时,美联储内部围绕降息时 机和幅度的分歧日益公开化,一场关乎经济软着陆还是硬着陆的政策博弈正在上演。 政治阴影笼罩政策独立性,市场波动加剧预期分化 特朗普政府持续施加的政治压力令美联储处境微妙。总统本人反复批评高盛"夸大"关税影响,并介入美 联储主席人选筛选进程(据悉正考虑10-11名候选人)。尽管美联储宣称决策仅依赖经济数据,但财长 贝森特公开呼吁9月大幅降息50个基点,称当前利率"限制性过强",应下调150-175个基点。这种高层表 态与市场的激进预期形成共振:部分投资者押注9月降息概率飙升至96%,但也有机构如摩根大通坚持 认为四季度才是行动窗口。 长期结构性挑战浮现,货币政策工具有效性存疑 更深远的挑战来自货币政策框架本身。前纽约联储主席杜德利质疑量化紧缩(QT)的实际效果,指出 过去三年资产负债表缩减25% 并未显著收紧金融条件。现任官员们也开始反思:若经济回归特朗普政 府宣布关税前的轨道,美联储可将利率降至中性水平;但全球供应链重构带来的成 ...
