1. Report Industry Investment Rating - No information provided in the content 2. Core Views of the Report - Anti - involution policies affect commodity prices, shock the market's inflation expectations, and cause a significant adjustment in the bond market. Credit bond yields rise with interest rates, and most credit spreads widen, with secondary and perpetual (二永) bonds showing large fluctuations and high spread increases. Fund companies with the most unstable liability ends sell significantly, while insurance companies increase their buying efforts, and bank wealth management remains relatively stable. The trading enthusiasm for medium - and long - term bonds such as urban investment bonds, industrial bonds, and 二永 bonds remains high [2]. - It is too early to worry about negative feedback, with a very low probability. Market learning has improved the ability to respond, and there has been no change in macro - expectations. Moreover, bank wealth management's increasing consideration of liquidity in its configuration can prevent negative feedback [3]. - The asset shortage pattern remains unchanged and may even intensify. Interest rates may have short - term adjustments but do not support continuous and significant adjustments. Once interest rates stabilize, credit is likely to stabilize. After the market adjustment, it will be more difficult to further compress credit spreads compared to previous lows, and credit spreads are more likely to fluctuate. Investors need to seize phased trading opportunities [4]. - Investors should focus on coupon - bearing assets, and consider both coupon and trading operations for long - term bonds. For trading strategies, medium - and long - term 二永 bonds are recommended; for allocation strategies, sinking investment in urban investment bonds is still recommended. Wait for trading opportunities for ultra - long - term bonds [5]. 3. Summary by Relevant Catalogs 3.1 Market Review: Significant Correction, Noticeable Widening of 二永 Bond Spreads 3.1.1 Market Performance - This week, the credit bond market significantly corrected, and credit spreads widened. The stock market strengthened, and the bond market significantly corrected. Credit bond yields generally rose, especially for medium - and long - term 二永 bonds, which increased by over 10bp, with the 10Y 二永 bond correcting by up to 14.5bp. Most credit spreads widened, with 二永 bonds seeing more significant increases, while spreads of some medium - and long - term notes, enterprise bonds, and urban investment bonds of certain grades slightly narrowed [10]. - From a daily perspective, urban investment bond yields generally rose, with the adjustment amplitude first increasing and then decreasing, reaching a daily correction high on Thursday. From Monday to Tuesday, long - term 二永 bonds led the yield increase, but the overall amplitude was relatively small. From Wednesday to Thursday, the yield increase continued to expand, with long - term 二永 bonds correcting by over 5bp on Thursday and short - term bonds increasing by about 4bp. The long - and short - term yields of urban investment bonds and medium - term notes also increased by 3.5bp - 5bp. On Friday, the market continued to decline, but the amplitude narrowed. Credit spreads showed a divergent trend. Affected by the different adjustment speeds of credit bonds and interest - rate bonds, the spreads of 二永 bonds, known as "interest - rate amplifiers," generally widened, while the spreads of less - liquid urban investment bonds and medium - term notes were still slightly compressed in the early stage and widened on Friday [16]. 3.1.2 Insurance Continues to Allocate, Funds Sell on a Large Scale - Insurance companies' credit bond allocation remains strong. This week, insurance companies continued to be net buyers, with a net buying scale of 12.563 billion yuan, a 38.7% increase from the previous week. The net buying volume of ultra - long - term credit bonds over 5 years was 6.75 billion yuan, with the increase intensity remaining basically the same as last week [18]. - Funds sold credit bonds significantly this week, with a selling scale of 22.578 billion yuan. The net selling volume within 5Y was 12.738 billion yuan, and the net selling volume over 5Y was 7.474 billion yuan [18]. - Bank wealth management scale slightly increased. As of July 20, the bank wealth management scale was 31.02 trillion yuan, an increase of 0.06 trillion yuan from the previous weekend. This week, the net buying scales of wealth management and other product categories for credit bonds were 15.301 billion yuan and 13.078 billion yuan respectively, with month - on - month changes of 15.80% and 39.13% [21][22]. 3.1.3 Transaction Proportion: Decrease in Low - Rating Transaction Proportion - The transaction proportion of urban investment bonds, industrial bonds, and 二永 bonds with a remaining term of over 3 years was 30%, 29%, and 72% respectively, indicating that the transaction proportion of medium - and long - term bonds remained high. For urban investment bonds, the proportion of transactions under 3 years remained basically the same as last week, with the 3 - 5Y transaction proportion decreasing by 2 percentage points and the over - 5Y proportion increasing by 2 percentage points. For industrial bonds, the proportion of transactions within 1 year decreased by 1 percentage point, the 1 - 3Y proportion decreased by 2 percentage points, and the 3 - 5Y proportion increased by 3 percentage points. For 二永 bonds, the proportion of transactions within 1 year decreased by 1 percentage point, the 1 - 3Y proportion increased by 2 percentage points, and the 3 - 5Y proportion decreased by 3 percentage points [28]. - The proportion of low - rating transactions of non - financial credit bonds decreased this week. The proportion of transactions of urban investment bonds with a rating of AA(2) and below decreased by 1 percentage point from last week, the proportion of industrial bonds with a rating of AA and below decreased by 1 percentage point month - on - month, and the proportion of 二永 bonds with a rating of AA and below decreased by 3 percentage points from last week [29]. 3.2 Market Outlook: Redemption is Controllable, Seize Trading Opportunities 3.2.1 Redemption is Controllable, Seize Trading Opportunities - Reasons for market adjustment: With the continuous implementation of anti - involution policies, commodity futures prices have risen significantly, affecting the market's inflation expectations. The Nanhua Industrial Products Index, which reflects commodity price trends, has also risen significantly. Historically, this index has a certain forward - looking predictive effect on PPI. By observing the term structure of interest - rate swaps, indicators such as IRS FR007 5 - year - 1 - year and 1 - year - FR007 have quickly turned positive, indicating a change in the market's inflation expectations [31][33]. - Regarding the concern of negative feedback: It is too early to worry about negative feedback, with a very low probability. Market adjustments in September 2024 and March 2025 were more significant than the current one, but no obvious negative feedback occurred. The key lies in the increasing consideration of liquidity in bank wealth management's configuration. Since April this year, the absolute amount and proportion of inter - bank certificate of deposit (NCD) allocation have been at historically high levels, enabling wealth management to handle market fluctuations. As long as bank wealth management remains stable, the key link of market negative feedback can be stopped [38][40]. - Analysis of tight funds: The funding situation tightened on Thursday this week, leading to a higher market adjustment amplitude. The tightening on Thursday may be due to banks' liability - side issues. From the perspective of large banks' deposit - loan spreads, the deposit - loan spreads of large banks generally decline seasonally in July. After the significant reduction of deposit interest rates in May, large banks face the pressure of term - deposit maturity transfer, resulting in relatively large liability pressure. A low deposit - loan spread means reduced stability of funding rates, which are more dependent on the central bank's liquidity injection. Any daily misalignment in the central bank's liquidity injection can significantly impact funding rates [41][42]. - Future trends: The asset shortage pattern remains unchanged and may even intensify. Interest rates may have short - term adjustments, but the current macro - environment does not support continuous and significant interest - rate adjustments. The impact of anti - involution policies on inflation expectations has been fully priced in the short term through the significant rise in commodity prices. For credit bonds, it will be more difficult to further compress credit spreads below previous lows this year. Credit spreads are more likely to fluctuate, and investors need to seize phased small - band opportunities [50][56]. 3.2.2 Science and Technology Innovation Bonds Continue to Contribute Net Financing to the Market - In July, non - financial credit bond financing performed well, with the net financing exceeding the levels of the same month in the previous two years, reaching 347.9 billion yuan. The supply of long - term credit bonds has increased. Recently, the sentiment for extending the duration of credit bonds has been positive. Although the issuance duration in July has decreased month - on - month, there is still room for extending the duration [57][59]. 3.3 What to Buy in Credit? 3.3.1 Focus on High - Grade 二永 Bonds for Trading, Weak - Quality Urban Investment Bonds for Coupon - The price - comparison of short - term 二永 bonds is positive, while that of medium - and long - term 二永 bonds is negative. Considering different investor needs, high - grade trading strategies are recommended to focus on 二永 bonds, and low - grade coupon strategies are recommended to focus on urban investment bonds. This week, the price - comparison advantage of short - term AAA second - tier capital bonds over medium - term notes remained positive, and the price - comparison of long - term AAA second - tier capital bonds with medium - term notes fluctuated around 0. The price - comparison of short - term urban investment bonds with medium - term notes is positive, and the price - comparison of long - term low - grade urban investment bonds has quickly recovered to the historical central level. Urban investment bonds still have a price - comparison advantage over medium - term notes, but the difference is not significant. Considering the bond - selection scope, urban investment bonds are still preferred [62][64]. 3.3.2 General Credit Coupon is More Advantageous - Currently, the proportion of urban investment bonds with a valuation above 2.3% is 19.8%, that of non - financial industrial bonds is 10.8%, and that of 二永 bonds is 6.8%. From the perspective of coupon - based bond selection, general credit offers a wider bond - selection space. For urban investment bonds, investors can consider both coupon and trading operations for the long - term, and can continue to participate in short - term high - coupon varieties. For industrial bonds, investors can focus on important local state - owned real - estate enterprises among real - estate developers, such as Shoukai and Jianfa Real Estate; among non - real - estate entities, focus on China Minsheng Bank, Jizhong Energy, and Bohai Bank [68][72]. 3.3.3 Statistics of Primary Issuance - Relevant data shows the weekly net financing and cumulative net financing of various credit bonds, including urban investment bonds, industrial bonds, 二永 bonds, and other financial bonds from December 30, 2024, to July 27, 2025 [77]. 3.3.4 Details of Secondary Valuation Changes - No detailed information provided in the content

Group 1: Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content Group 2: Core Viewpoints of the Report - The bond market adjusted significantly this week, but the short - term impact factors are temporary, and the bond market is expected to enter a repair phase. The short - term interest rate adjustment ceiling is clear, and the 10 - year and 30 - year Treasury bond yields may return to around 1.65% and 1.85% respectively. The bond interest rate is expected to hit a new low in the second half of the year [1][5][19] Group 3: Summary by Related Contents Bond Market Adjustment This Week - The bond market adjusted significantly this week, with long - term bonds adjusting more notably. The yields of 10 - year and 30 - year Treasury bonds rose by 6.7bps and 8.4bps to 1.73% and 1.97% respectively. The yields of Tier 2 capital bonds of 3 - year and 5 - year AAA - also increased significantly, and the 1 - year AAA certificate of deposit rate rose by 5.8bps to 1.675% [1][9] - The sharp decline in the bond market this week is due to multiple factors: the expectation of anti - involution policies pushed up commodity prices and the stock market; the central bank withdrew funds in the first four days of this week, and seasonal factors tightened the funds; the bond market adjustment may have led to the net value retracement of some asset management products, resulting in a negative feedback effect of redemptions [1][9] Short - term Nature of Impact Factors - Commodity prices tumbled on the night of Friday after a continuous rise last week. With strengthened regulatory control, the subsequent commodity price rally is expected to cool down, reducing the pressure on the bond market. The current price increase is more based on expectations, and its sustainability is to be observed [2][12] - The central bank's operation on Friday strengthened the protection of liquidity, and funds will not tighten in a trending manner. The central bank's net injection of 8018 billion yuan on Friday and the statement of the deputy governor indicate that the central bank will maintain liquidity stability, which helps to form an adjustment ceiling for the bond market, limiting the continuous adjustment space of the bond market [3][13] Unchanged Bond Market Trend - The bond market is still in an asset shortage pattern, and broad - spectrum interest rates are declining. The supply of assets will decrease in the next five months, while the allocation power is steadily increasing. The reduction of insurance reservation interest rates will further increase the allocation demand for long - term bonds [4][14] - The demand side is not strong, and the export demand may slow down in the second half of the year. The real estate market is weak, and investment and consumption growth rates have slowed down. The impact of anti - involution policies on supply also needs attention. Fundamental changes are the key to determining the interest rate trend [5][19] Bond Market Outlook - After the short - term shock, the bond market will enter a repair phase. The interest rate is expected to return to the previous level in the first stage, and whether it can break through the previous low later depends on the fundamentals and the pressure of asset shortage. The bond interest rate is expected to hit a new low in the second half of the year [5][19]

Group 1: Report Industry Investment Rating - Not mentioned in the provided content Group 2: Report's Core View - This week, most credit spreads in different industries widened, with only a few narrowing. The credit spreads of urban investment bonds widened overall, with the short - end widening more than the long - end. For industrial bonds, the credit spreads of AA+ and above industrial bonds widened to varying degrees, and the short - end of AA industrial bonds also widened. The credit spreads of bank secondary and perpetual bonds widened overall. After a significant adjustment in credit bond yields, the cost - effectiveness of credit bonds has increased from a static coupon perspective. With the rapid decline in black - series futures prices on Friday night, the bond market sentiment may improve, and the space for further adjustment of credit bonds is relatively limited. It is recommended to focus on long - duration urban investment bonds, capital bonds, and insurance sub - debt, especially the long - duration capital bonds of Minsheng, Bohai, and Hengfeng banks, and be optimistic about urban investment dim sum bonds and US dollar bonds [4][43] - Since July 2024, the long - end risk - free interest rate has been in a downward channel, and the yield of ultra - long - term credit bonds has followed suit. Although the proportion of low - valuation transactions and TKN transactions has been rising this year, it has not exceeded last year's high, indicating that the buying sentiment may not have reached its end. With the concentrated listing of science - innovation bond ETFs on July 17, the spreads of medium - and short - term component bonds have been compressed to an extreme level. In the context of the "asset shortage" in the low - interest - rate environment this year, the market may further evolve towards long - duration assets. Investors can still find relatively suitable ultra - long - term credit bond targets in the market [5][49] Group 3: Summary According to the Directory 1. Primary Market 1.1 Net Financing Scale - This week, the net financing of credit bonds (excluding asset - backed securities) was 390.6 billion yuan, an increase of 220.3 billion yuan compared with last week.

For example, the AA - rated credit spreads in Henan and Guizhou compressed by 6BP and 3BP respectively, while the AA - rated credit spread in Yunnan and the AA+ - rated credit spread in Guizhou widened by 12BP and 13BP respectively. The credit spreads in other regions mostly widened by no more than 5BP [33] 2.3.2 Industrial Bonds - The credit spreads of AA+ and above industrial bonds widened to varying degrees this week, and the short - end of AA industrial bonds also widened.

Investment Recommendations - Pay attention to long - duration urban investment bonds, capital bonds, and insurance sub - debt, especially the long - duration capital bonds of Minsheng, Bohai, and Hengfeng banks, and be optimistic about urban investment dim sum bonds and US dollar bonds [43] - Focus on the allocation and trading opportunities of ultra - long - term credit bonds. For industrial bonds, State Grid has the largest scale of ultra - long - term credit bonds and good trading atmosphere, but the yield level is relatively low. Chengtong Holdings, Sinochem Group, Guangzhou Yuexiu, and Sichuan Energy Development are more cost - effective. For urban investment bonds, although the static coupon levels are generally better than industrial bonds, the range of available bonds is relatively narrow. Pay attention to the opportunities for further compression of the spreads of Shenzhen Metro, Shaanxi Communications Control, Yantai Guofeng, and Yizhuang Investment Development. The cost - effectiveness of the ultra - long - term bank secondary capital bonds of several large state - owned and joint - stock banks is limited [6][50]
