美股仓位对基金经理的负贡献，或导致QDII产品加速切换国别仓位。券商中国记者注意到，以美国为核心仓 位的QDII基金目前处于业绩垫底状态，而近期关税引发的美股暴跌则进一步加剧了业绩压力，这使得国别资 产配置策略成为QDII基金业绩强弱的关键，考虑到许多QDII在基金合同上并未强制捆绑美股，甚至未设置美 股仓位的最低限度，这意味着QDII基金加速国别仓位切换或成为二季度基金经理的操作趋势，尤其是部分在 港股和A股处于严重低配的QDII基金。 更为关键的是，中国反制来了。4月4日，国务院关税税则委员会、商务部、海关总署接连发布多项对美反制 措施。其中，4月10日12时01分起，国务院关税税则委员会对原产于美国的进口商品，在现行适用关税税率基 础上加征34%关税。 相关人士判断，关税冲突可能吸引更多未上车的资金在市场波动中，择机南下购入港股。诺安基金国际部人士 认为，港股市场短期内仍将面临一定波动。不过，中长期来看，港股市场配置价值依旧较高。在国内扩内需、 稳消费等政策刺激下，消费行业业绩有望改善，促进消费股上涨，科技政策支持与产业趋势共振，科技板块有 望持续上涨 。 美股暴跌重创QDII净值 在极端恐慌情绪下，美 ...

贾天楚｜中信证券海外研究分析师 S1010524040002 海外研究｜特朗普能压降美国财政赤字规模吗？ 我们经过测算发现，基准情形下，通过增加关税、压降北约军费支出与DOGE减少支出或难对冲减税带来的财政赤字 增加，2025-2026年美国财政赤字率或难大幅下降。一方面，受限于两院博弈以及党内派系分歧，减税政策或"瘦身 落地"；另一方面，通过增加关税、DOGE以及北约军费压缩的方式带来的金额或低于特朗普口头沟通的规模。此 外，特朗普政府或还倾向通过压降联邦基金利率来降低利息支出压力，不过该方法或需至26/27年方能见成效。同时 需关注保险金支出的压降政策。整体来看，2025年美国或仍呈现"小幅宽货币以及稳财政"的政策风格，财政赤字率 或在高位保持稳定。 风险因素：中美关系走向超市场预期；美联储货币政策超预期；美国经济韧性超预期；特朗普贸易政策及关税摩擦超 预期；模型测算及情景假设出现偏差；全球关税摩擦引发的出口波动超预期；马斯克政策执行效果超预期；两党关于 财税等问题博弈超预期。 陈俊云｜中信证券前瞻研究首席分析师 S1010517080001 前瞻｜全球SaaS云计算：需求趋稳，短期关注宏观预期改善、AI ...
