12月美联储如期降息25个基点，这是年内美联储第三次降息，目前利率已经降到了3.5%-3.75%之间。 随美联储降息，美元进一步承压，从4月初到现在的12月，美元兑人民币汇率从7.35来到了7.04，8个月时间美元贬值了近4%。 4%的汇率贬值幅度，对之前换汇出去做美元理财的人冲击不小。现在美元存款利率普遍在三四个点左右，确实比国内存款利息高了两个点左右，但随美 元贬值，人民币升值，这境内外的息差，可能还不够汇率贬的。 现在5年期美债收益率大概在3.7%，1年期收益率大概在3.5%，光看年内的汇率情况，换汇出去持有5年期以下美债的基本还是亏本的。 国债收益率 ◎ 「了解国债收益率▶ | 中国 | | 美国 | | --- | --- | --- | | 名称 | 最新 涨幅 / | 涨跌。 | | US30Y | 美国30年期国债收益率 4.8456 0.02% 0.0011 us3ov | | | US20Y | 美国20年期国债收益率 4.8089 -0.08% -0.0037 US20v | | | US10Y | 美国10年期国债收益率 4.1860 0.05% 0.0019 | | | US7Y | ...

Group 1 - The recent phenomenon of a strong renminbi against the US dollar, appreciating by 1.3% since early October, contrasts with a declining stock market, particularly in Hong Kong where the Hang Seng Index has dropped 15% from its peak [1][4] - Historically, a strong currency correlates positively with stock market performance, as a stronger renminbi typically indicates foreign capital inflow and a favorable economic outlook [1][4] - The current divergence between currency strength and stock market weakness raises questions about whether the currency or the stock market is misaligned, with historical examples indicating that such divergences can occur [4][10] Group 2 - The relationship between the renminbi and the stock market has been predominantly positive, with recent divergence being rare and primarily driven by different underlying factors [8][18] - The renminbi's appreciation is attributed to a record trade surplus of $1.08 trillion and expectations of a weaker US dollar, while the stock market reflects weakening domestic demand and economic pressures [19][31] - The stock market's decline is linked to weak internal demand, with indicators such as PMI remaining below the growth line and fixed asset investment showing negative growth for three consecutive months [25][31] Group 3 - The recent strength of the renminbi is not primarily driven by foreign capital inflow, as evidenced by the stock market's decline and a lack of significant foreign investment in the bond market [19][21] - The central bank's intervention in the foreign exchange market appears to be diminishing, as indicated by changes in the onshore and offshore renminbi swap rates [26][27] - The divergence between the renminbi and the stock market may persist due to differing driving factors, with the potential for the renminbi to continue appreciating based on seasonal capital settlement and external economic conditions [30][32] Group 4 - The implications of a strong renminbi include potential benefits for import-dependent industries and sectors related to service trade, while negatively impacting exports and price pressures [42][49] - A sustained appreciation of the renminbi could lead to a temporary boost in market sentiment, particularly if it breaks key psychological levels, but the sustainability of this trend is uncertain without fundamental support [44][45] - The future trajectory of the renminbi and stock market will depend on the underlying economic fundamentals and whether fiscal policies can effectively stimulate growth [41][44]

Core Viewpoint - The article discusses the recent divergence between the strengthening of the Renminbi (RMB) and the decline of the stock market, particularly in Hong Kong, raising questions about the underlying factors driving these trends [2][4][15]. Group 1: RMB Strength and Stock Market Divergence - The RMB has appreciated by 1.3% against the USD since early October, nearing the 7.0 mark, while the Hong Kong stock market has seen a significant decline, with the Hang Seng Index dropping 15% from its peak [2][4]. - Historically, a strong RMB correlates positively with stock market performance, as it typically indicates foreign capital inflow and a favorable economic outlook [2][4][6]. - The recent divergence is attributed to different driving factors for the RMB and the stock market, suggesting that the traditional correlation may not apply in the current context [4][15]. Group 2: Historical Context and Analysis - The historical relationship between the RMB and the stock market has predominantly been one of alignment, with notable exceptions occurring only twice in the past: from March to June 2013 and from July 2021 to October 2022 [9][10]. - In both historical instances, the divergence was resolved either by the stock market aligning with the RMB or vice versa, influenced by policy interventions and economic fundamentals [10][12]. - The article emphasizes that the current divergence is rare and highlights the importance of growth and capital inflow as key pricing factors for both the RMB and the stock market [7][14]. Group 3: Current Economic Conditions - The recent RMB appreciation is primarily driven by a record trade surplus of $1.08 trillion and a weakening USD, rather than significant foreign capital inflows into the stock market [15][25]. - Domestic economic indicators show a weakening trend, with PMI below the growth threshold and negative growth in fixed asset investment, suggesting that the stock market's decline reflects underlying economic pressures [22][26]. - The article posits that the RMB's strength is more a result of external factors, such as the USD's performance and seasonal capital flows, rather than improvements in domestic economic conditions [25][26]. Group 4: Future Outlook - The article suggests that the divergence between the RMB and the stock market may persist, as the factors causing this divergence are not expected to change in the short term [28][29]. - The future trajectory of both the RMB and the stock market will depend on the direction of economic fundamentals and whether policy measures can effectively address the current economic challenges [31][36]. - A significant policy response aimed at stimulating domestic demand could potentially realign the RMB and stock market trends, but without such measures, the divergence may continue [36][37].
