新华财经北京1月22日电美国总统特朗普在达沃斯宣布撤回对欧洲的关税威胁后,交易员们迅速回补仓 位,10年期美债收益率应声下跌近4BPs。 数据显示,当地时间周三(1月21日),美债市场迎来反弹,各期限收益率普遍下跌。截至尾盘,10年 期美债收益率下跌3.98BPs,报4.2528%;30年期收益率下跌4.24BPs,报4.8765%;对货币政策更敏感的 2年期收益率微幅下跌0.64BP,报3.5908%。此外,2年期和10年期利差收窄3.57BPs至65.79BPs。 近日,市场一度因瑞典最大私人养老基金Alecta抛售大部分美债持仓的消息而承压。然而,随着特朗普 在达沃斯论坛发表讲话,市场情绪发生决定性转变。21日下午进行的130亿美元20年期美债招标结果异 常强劲,中标利率为4.846%,低于市场预期,而投标倍数高达2.86,创下2023年6月以来新高,市场需 求旺盛。 美国财政部长斯科特·贝森特也试图淡化事件影响,称一些丹麦养老基金宣布计划出售全部美债的"投资 规模微不足道",并补充说"丹麦持有的美债就像丹麦本身一样无足轻重"。 与此同时,市场对美联储近期货币政策路径的预期趋于稳定,对债市构成了另一支撑 ...
申万宏源:2026年美国通胀或呈现“前高后低”特征
Zhi Tong Cai Jing· 2026-01-21 22:33
Core Viewpoint - The report from Shenwan Hongyuan indicates that U.S. inflation may exhibit a "high then low" characteristic in 2026, with the first half being influenced by tariff transmission and tax cuts, and the second half potentially experiencing a deflationary trend [1][5]. Group 1: Tariff Effects on Inflation - Since the implementation of "reciprocal tariffs," the risk of re-inflation in the U.S. has been manageable, and it has not become a major issue for monetary policy or capital markets [2]. - The inflation effect of tariffs has been systematically lower than expected, with the core inflation driven mainly by core goods while core services continue to cool down [2]. - As of October 2025, the effective tariff rate in the U.S. was only 12.4%, below the theoretical rate of 15.7%, indicating limited room for tariff increases due to various factors [3]. Group 2: Cost Accounting of Tariffs - Companies have been absorbing more tariff costs, which has helped keep inflation pressures manageable. As of September 2025, exporters, importers, and consumers bore 6%, 37%, and 57% of the tariff costs, respectively [4]. - The uncertainty of tariff policies and weakening domestic demand in the U.S. have constrained price increases, with companies delaying price hikes due to excess imports [4]. - By the fourth quarter of 2025, the momentum for companies to pass on tariff costs has increased, with expectations for further transmission in 2026 [4]. Group 3: Future Inflation Risks - The report predicts that if the tariff transmission rate approaches 70%, inflation may show stronger "stickiness," with core PCE year-on-year expected to be 2.8%, 2.6%, and 2.5% under different transmission rate scenarios of 90%, 70%, and 50% respectively by the end of 2026 [5]. - Potential risks beyond tariffs include cyclical and metal inflation on the upside, and productivity improvements and tariff exemptions on the downside [5]. - The Federal Reserve's monetary policy is closely linked to inflation risks, with expectations of a pause in rate cuts in the first half of 2026, followed by 1-2 rate cuts in the second half as deflation begins [5].

美联储下周或将“按兵不动”,经济学家预计:降息需等待鲍威尔“谢幕”
Hua Er Jie Jian Wen· 2026-01-21 13:35
强劲的经济增长动力与依然顽固的通胀数据,正在重塑市场对美联储货币政策路径的预期。根据最新调 查显示,美联储在下周的议息会议上或将维持利率不变,且本季度降息的可能性大幅降低,货币宽松窗 口或将推迟至美联储主席鲍威尔今年5月任期结束之后。 据路透1月16日至21日对100位经济学家进行的调查,所有受访者均预计美联储将在1月27日至28日的会 议上将基准利率维持在3.50%-3.75%的区间。更为关键的是,58%的受访经济学家目前预测整个第一季 度利率都将保持不变,这一预期较上月发生了显著转变,当时多数人曾预计3月至少会有一次降息。 虽然大多数经济学家仍预计今年晚些时候至少会有两次降息,但在短期路径上,强劲的经济基本面并不 支持立即宽松。调查显示,在第一季度之后的前景虽无绝对共识,但微弱多数(100人中的55人)受访 者预计,降息周期最快也要等到鲍威尔5月卸任美联储主席后才会重启。 降息窗口或随领导层更迭开启 鉴于当前的经济数据,部分分析师认为美联储甚至有理由考虑加息,但基准预测仍指向"维持现状"。 LSEG StarMine计算显示,野村证券的高级美国经济学家Jeremy Schwartz是去年预测最准确的分析师 ...

突发重挫!锡镍价格为何同步“跳水”?反弹曙光何在?
Xin Lang Cai Jing· 2026-01-19 09:56
Core Viewpoint - The recent sharp decline in tin and nickel prices in the Yangtze spot market is attributed to a combination of macroeconomic factors, supply-demand dynamics, and regulatory actions, leading to increased market divergence regarding future trends [1] Macroeconomic Pressure - The US dollar index remains strong around 99.40, nearing a six-week high, which is a key factor suppressing non-ferrous metal prices [2] - Market expectations for the Federal Reserve's interest rate policy have solidified, with a 95% probability of maintaining rates in January and a 78.4% probability in March, pushing back rate cut expectations to mid-year [2] Supply and Demand Logic - Tin prices are pressured by increased supply expectations from Myanmar and Indonesia, with imports from Myanmar reaching 7,190 tons in November, alleviating previous supply tightness [3] - Demand for tin is weakening as the "export window" for photovoltaic solder approaches its end, and speculative demand in AI and semiconductor sectors is also declining [3] - Nickel prices are affected by high inventory levels, with LME nickel stocks rising to 285,732 tons, and weak demand from the electric vehicle sector, which saw a 38% year-on-year drop in retail sales in early January [3] Industry Chain Impact - Global visible tin inventories are at approximately 12,000 tons, down over 70% from historical highs, but supply improvements are evident with increased mining quotas expected from Indonesia [4] - The nickel industry faces challenges with overcapacity in smelting and weak demand from the stainless steel and electric vehicle sectors, leading to significant operational pressures across the supply chain [5] Corporate Dynamics - Leading companies like Yunnan Tin Company reported a 35.99% year-on-year increase in net profit for the first three quarters of 2025, but current price declines may impact short-term profitability [6] - The second-largest tin producer, Xinyi Silver Tin, is expanding its capacity and plans to increase tin concentrate production to 20,000 tons per year through acquisitions [6] - Nickel industry leader Tsingshan Group is well-positioned due to its extensive operations in Indonesia, with ongoing projects in high-grade nickel and battery-grade nickel expected to benefit from future demand recovery [6] Outlook and Strategy - Analysts predict that tin and nickel prices will maintain a weak and volatile trend in the short term, with tin prices likely oscillating between 370,000 and 400,000 yuan per ton [7] - Nickel prices are expected to remain under pressure, with key support around 141,000 yuan per ton, and potential declines to 140,000 yuan if demand does not improve [7] - Investors are advised to lower leverage and control positions, focusing on leading companies with resource advantages and cost benefits while avoiding speculative trades [8]
