Group 1: Report's Core Viewpoints - The core contradiction of the current spot exchange rate of the US dollar against the RMB is the rhythm control in the time dimension, not the direction choice. The trend of reducing the depreciation pressure of the RMB against the US dollar is certain, and the key variables are the specific timing of the appreciation start and the speed control during the process [2][31][34] - In the short - term, the RMB appreciation benefits from policy guidance and the A - share dividends brought by market sentiment repair. The continuous upward adjustment of the RMB central parity rate has significantly increased market trading activity, laying a kinetic energy foundation for the exchange rate to break through the previous narrow - range oscillation range [2][31] - In the short - term, the probability of the RMB exchange rate directly returning to the "6 era" is low. It is more likely to be in the process of gradually repairing to the reasonable equilibrium center, as the current appreciation depends more on policy guidance and short - term market sentiment support, and there is also policy - level rhythm control [3][31] - The current exchange rate market shows a differentiated feature of "increased volatility at the spot end and strengthened trend at the swap end". The spot exchange rate fluctuates widely under the influence of sentiment and short - term funds, while the swap end maintains a clear trend driven by interest rate parity repair and changes in the US - China interest rate spread [3][32] - From a policy perspective, the central bank may guide the exchange rate to return through a gradual "small - step and fast - run" operation. Before the exchange rate breaks through the 7.10 mark, the central bank may moderately slow down the upward adjustment speed of the central parity rate; if it breaks through 7.10 smoothly, the central bank may gradually increase the intervention [4][33] - In the medium - term, for the spot exchange rate of the US dollar against the RMB to achieve a trend - strengthening (including having the basis to return to the "6 era"), two key conditions are required: the US dollar index enters a clear downward channel, and the domestic economic fundamentals show substantial positive changes [7][34] Group 2: Driving Forces of RMB Appreciation - The Fed's monetary policy stance has shifted from hawkish to dovish, especially the loose signal released by Powell at the Jackson Hole meeting, creating a favorable external environment for the RMB [10] - Domestic exchange - rate stabilization policies have taken effect, and counter - cyclical adjustment tools have effectively curbed the RMB depreciation expectation and promoted the market's expectation of the spot exchange rate of the US dollar against the RMB to gradually tend to balance [10] - The recovery of the A - share market has driven up risk appetite and further stimulated the RMB's catch - up demand [10] Group 3: Role of Policy and Market in Exchange Rate Movement - Policy has played an important role in the process of the spot exchange rate of the US dollar against the RMB breaking below 7.15. The central parity rate has continuously released stable signals to guide market expectations. At the same time, market forces are also gradually strengthening, as evidenced by the re - emergence of the stock - exchange linkage effect [12] Group 4: Impact of Resident Deposit Movement - Resident deposit "movement" refers to the process of residents shifting a large amount of savings from the banking system to non - bank financial investment fields. It is mainly driven by income and expectations, and has multiple impacts on the financial market and economic structure [21] - Recently, the "migration" of resident deposits to non - bank financial institutions has provided continuous incremental funds for the stock market, helping to raise the reasonable valuation center of the A - share market and laying a solid foundation for the index - level market [22] - The "household deposit/total market value" chart has three core defects and cannot be used as direct evidence of resident deposit "movement". Although there is a lack of real - time data verification, potential capital inflows can provide marginal and phased support for the RMB exchange rate, but its sustainability and actual impact scale need to be rationally evaluated [27][30]

Core Viewpoint - The article discusses Shanghai's recent measures to stimulate the real estate market, which are seen as a significant move to support not only Shanghai but also the broader Yangtze River Delta region. The timing of these measures is crucial, as many potential homebuyers have paused their purchasing plans due to the rising stock market, indicating a shift in investment preferences from real estate to equities [2][4][8][10]. Summary by Sections Historical Context - The article draws parallels between the current economic environment and historical periods, specifically 1998-2001, 2012-2014, and 2020-2021, highlighting a recurring pattern where the stock market is stimulated first to create liquidity before directing funds into the real estate market [18][19][23][27]. - In each historical instance, the government has strategically used the stock market to bolster liquidity, which eventually leads to a surge in the real estate market, particularly in major cities like Shanghai [20][22][26][30]. Current Economic Dynamics - The article emphasizes that the current economic strategy involves first boosting the stock market (referred to as "大A") to enhance social liquidity, which will then be funneled into the real estate sector. This approach is seen as a necessary step to address the pressures on total demand [32][35]. - It is noted that the recent measures in Shanghai are not merely a response to immediate market conditions but are part of a broader strategy to reshape the valuation of RMB assets and stimulate domestic demand [43][44]. Investment Implications - The article suggests that the current situation presents a unique opportunity for investors in the real estate market, as the economic fundamentals are still declining while the stock market is performing well. This creates a favorable entry point for potential buyers before the market dynamics shift [44]. - It concludes that all asset price movements are aligned with macroeconomic policy goals, indicating that the valuation logic for RMB assets differs significantly from that of Western economies [45][46].
