Core Viewpoint - The article discusses the October social financing data, highlighting a lower-than-expected increase in social financing and a decline in credit to the real economy, primarily driven by reduced household loans and a challenging real estate market [1][6][7]. Summary by Sections Social Financing Overview - In October, social financing increased by 815 billion yuan, below the market average expectation of 1.2 trillion yuan, and a year-on-year decrease of 597 billion yuan. The stock growth rate of social financing was 8.5%, down 0.2 percentage points from the previous month [1][6]. Credit to Real Economy - Credit to the real economy decreased by 201 billion yuan, with a year-on-year reduction of 3.166 trillion yuan. This decline was mainly due to a drop in household short-term loans by 2.866 trillion yuan and long-term loans by 700 billion yuan, totaling a year-on-year decrease of 5.156 trillion yuan [1][7]. Corporate Loans - Corporate loans showed overall improvement, with short-term loans remaining flat year-on-year and bill financing increasing by 331.2 billion yuan. However, long-term loans increased by only 30 billion yuan, reflecting a year-on-year decrease of 140 billion yuan [2][8]. Government and Corporate Bond Financing - Government bond financing amounted to 489.3 billion yuan, a year-on-year decrease of 560.2 billion yuan. For the remaining months of the year, government bond financing is projected to be around 2.41 trillion yuan, down approximately 655.5 billion yuan year-on-year [9][10]. M1 and M2 Growth - M1 grew by 6.2%, down 1.0 percentage points from the previous month, while M2 increased by 8.2%, also down 0.2 percentage points. The slower growth in M1 and M2 is attributed to weak credit and reduced government bond supply [4][12]. Future Outlook - The market has already priced in discussions regarding the fourth quarter's social financing and M1 trends. The data from October did not present significant surprises, with the year-to-date increase in social financing being 14.1%, the highest in five years [5][13]. The first quarter of 2026 is seen as critical, with expectations for policy tools and project financing to impact growth positively [5][13].
