美国“大而美”法案的近忧与远虑
HTSC· 2025-07-07 02:06
Group 1: Fiscal Impact - The "Big and Beautiful" bill is expected to increase the U.S. fiscal deficit by $4.1 trillion over the next ten years, raising the deficit rate by 3-4 percentage points compared to 2010-2019 levels[2] - The average deficit rate over the next decade is projected to reach 6.4%, potentially increasing to 6.7% if certain tax cuts are extended beyond 2028[2][3] - The bill's implementation may lead to a fiscal deficit of approximately 7% in 2026, with short-term growth support for Q4 2025 and 2026[1][3] Group 2: Economic Growth and Inflation - The bill is anticipated to provide short-term economic growth support, but its long-term effectiveness is expected to diminish, potentially exacerbating inflation[3][4] - Independent institutions estimate that the bill will only contribute an additional 0.4% to U.S. GDP over the next decade, significantly lower than the White House's estimate of 2.4%-2.7%[3] Group 3: Social and Political Consequences - The bill may worsen income and welfare distribution in the U.S., intensifying political polarization, as high-income individuals and corporations benefit more from tax cuts[5] - The average annual tax cut for the wealthiest families is projected to be $12,000, while the poorest families may face a net loss of $1,600 annually[5] Group 4: Debt Sustainability Concerns - The bill could further undermine U.S. debt sustainability, with total government debt expected to rise from 124% of GDP[4] - The vision of reducing the deficit post-2029 is considered overly optimistic, with potential increases in interest costs and lower-than-expected GDP growth[4]
全球宏观:周期还未到最低处

Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. Core Views - Economic cycle: Tariff easing does not slow the cycle. Assuming the Fed's monetary policy remains cautious in the short - term (before the August central bank annual meeting), the constrained monetary liquidity (-0.42) is unlikely to change. After the short - term rebound of production and consumption indicators, the macro - economy may return to the cycle adjustment state. The real economic cycle has been more positive than expected since November 2024. As risk events land in the second and third quarters, the cycle bottoming process is expected to accelerate. The short - term economic cycle, especially the overseas economic cycle, is downgraded, and attention should be paid to the impact of the macro - demand decline on asset prices in the third quarter [8]. - Macro strategy: The US dollar may have only weakened temporarily in the first half of the year due to policy fluctuations and will turn to a safe - haven - driven rise in the second half as trade risks materialize. Gold's rise is cautious as the economic contraction effect of Tariff War 2.0 remains to be seen. The "Big Beautiful" bill expands the total scale of US Treasury bonds, and fiscal sustainability depends more on changes in interest - rate expectations. Interest rates may turn neutral from rising in the third quarter. A - shares have long - term attractiveness, and the yield curve should be steepened strategically after risks subside [9][10][11]. Summary by Directory Real Economic State: Tariff Easing Does Not Slow the Cycle - Short - term economic heat has rebounded. Production (+0.70) has improved month - on - month, and consumption (-0.02) has also significantly recovered (+0.37). However, forward - looking indicators and price - type indicators suggest that the macro - cycle has not improved significantly. With the Fed's cautious policy in the short - term, the constrained monetary liquidity (-0.44) is unlikely to change, and the macro - economy may return to adjustment after the short - term rebound [16]. Economic Growth: Short - term Inventory Replenishment Brings Resilience - Since mid - 2022, the global macro - cycle has been under pressure. As of May 2025, the global manufacturing PMI heat value is - 0.51 (-0.09), still in an "unfavorable" state. Except for Europe, the global macro - economic climate has slowed or declined to varying degrees [19][20]. Inflation: The Sound of Asset Price Bursting - The downward trend of macro - prices continues. Since August 2024, the global inflation heat value has been in a "cold" state. As of May 2025, it is - 0.47, up 0.11 percentage points month - on - month, and the risk of price adjustment remains. In June, there was a short - term rapid price increase, which may signal a cycle change [21][23]. Market Cycle Pricing: Focus on RMB Assets - The market's downward pricing remains unchanged. The real economic cycle has been more positive than expected since November 2024. As risk events land in 2025, the cycle bottoming process will accelerate. The short - term economic cycle, especially the overseas one, is downgraded. Attention should be paid to the impact of the third - quarter macro - demand decline on asset prices. High - interest - rate economies should focus on debt - fluctuation risks, while low - interest - rate economies should focus on the pressure of reduced real demand [26]. US Treasury Bond Liquidity: The US Cycle Continues to Be Pressured - The US debt - ceiling issue affects the US dollar. In 2025, the restart of the debt - ceiling issue increased the refinancing pressure of US Treasury bonds, and the market's macro - expectations of the US and Europe led to a decline in the US dollar index in the first half of the year. The resolution of the debt - ceiling issue is crucial for stabilizing US Treasury bond liquidity. The "Stablecoin Act" has limited short - term effects. The downgrade of the US sovereign credit rating may speed up the resolution of the debt - ceiling issue. The focus in the second half of the year is on the increase of the debt ceiling and the change of the Fed's balance - sheet policy [30][38][40]. High Energy Prices: A Stress Test for Non - US Cycles - There is a divergence in the money - market liquidity between China and Europe. The ECB cut interest rates in June, and its balance sheet has been shrinking. The People's Bank of China cut interest rates and reserve - requirement ratios in May, and its balance sheet has been expanding. High energy prices may affect the European economy, while China focuses on balancing debt leverage and improving real - economy liquidity [50]. Macro Strategy: Bearish but Not Short - Selling, Rising After a Slow Start - Global macro - policies are turning. The market needs to re - balance inflation expectations and interest rates. The US dollar may turn to a safe - haven - driven rise in the second half of the year. Gold's rise is cautious, and US Treasury bond interest rates may turn neutral. A - shares have long - term attractiveness, and the yield curve should be steepened strategically after risks subside [64][65][66]. Overseas Macro: Policy Aims to Expand, but Pressure Looms - The Fed's monetary policy is on standby. The short - term easing of the tariff war has improved the US financial conditions, but fiscal uncertainties remain. The Fed is cautious about cutting interest rates due to potential price pressure and needs a "low" and "moderate" interest - rate level [67]. Domestic Macro: Waiting for the Release of External Pressure - China's short - term economic data is relatively stable, but private - sector demand is under pressure. With the reduction of external "non - interest - rate - cut" constraints, domestic macro - policies may expand in the third quarter. However, there is a risk of a further decline in macro - data in the second half of the year [69].
大而美法案成美国债务导火索?美联储若降息,中国或跟进放水
Sou Hu Cai Jing· 2025-07-05 23:08
Core Points - The "Big Beautiful Plan" represents a significant fiscal expansion gamble by the U.S. government, aiming to stimulate economic growth through a combination of tax cuts, increased spending, welfare cuts, and borrowing [2][5] - The plan includes unprecedented tax cuts totaling $3.8 trillion over ten years, directly benefiting businesses and households, particularly targeting Trump's core supporters [5] - The plan also proposes a substantial increase in defense and border security spending, amounting to $144 billion over ten years, with $80 billion allocated specifically for combating illegal immigration [5] - Many social welfare programs are set to be cut, including Medicaid, student loan subsidies, and food stamps, reflecting a strategy to appeal to Republican supporters [5] - The plan raises the U.S. debt ceiling by $4 trillion, creating concerns about future fiscal deficits and potential economic instability [5][6] Financial Implications - Wall Street has expressed caution regarding the plan, with concerns that its risks outweigh potential benefits, estimating a total cost of $2.3 trillion against projected revenues of only $1.028 billion [8] - Analysts from Morgan Stanley warn that the plan could lead to a significant depreciation of the dollar, threatening its status as the global reserve currency [8] Global Economic Impact - The plan is expected to resonate globally, as it coincides with simultaneous monetary and fiscal stimulus measures in Europe and China, potentially leading to a new round of economic recovery [9][10] - China's central bank is likely to adjust its monetary policy in response to the U.S. actions, focusing on stimulating domestic consumption and economic growth through fiscal measures [10] Conclusion - The "Big Beautiful Plan" is not merely an economic policy but a gamble that could significantly impact both the U.S. and global economies, ushering in a period of uncertainty and challenges [12]

日本债市危机解除?30年期国债拍卖需求强劲,投标倍数创2月以来新高
Hua Er Jie Jian Wen· 2025-07-03 09:32
日本政府努力维稳市场效果显现,周四日本30年国债拍卖需求强劲,但全球对政府财政扩张的担忧持续,仍然推高了日本国债 收益率。 本周四,日本财政省进行了最新的30年期国债拍卖。表面看起来需求还不错,投标倍数达到3.58,是今年2月以来最高的水平, 也远高于6月拍卖时的2.92,过去12个月平均水平为3.33。 分析称,这个投标倍数说明,想买的资金数量是发行量的3.58倍,显示认购需求不差。相比5月那次惨淡的长债拍卖,这次结果 已经救场了不少。 但细看也有隐忧,中标的最低价格比市场预期要低,反映出一部分资金是保持谨慎的,部分买家为了弥补风险要求更高收益 率。 明治安田资产管理公司资深投资经理Shuichi Ohsaki评论称,这次拍卖有一定的需求,但也能看出市场相当谨慎。这次拍卖感觉 有点弱,但不太可能引发债市动荡。 全球赤字焦虑推高长期收益率 彭博策略师Mark Cranfield也认为,这次拍卖整体数据还算稳健,投标倍数提高到3.58是个亮点,但最低中标价格低于预期。真 正的考验还在二级市场,30年债收益率2.8%左右的收益率,相比年内高点3.2%并不特别有吸引力。同时,英国债市的波动也可 能再度引发全球主要经 ...
特朗普大动作,将冲击美股、美元、美债?
Wind万得· 2025-06-29 09:10
Core Viewpoint - The "Big and Beautiful" bill, which has passed procedural voting in the U.S. Senate, is expected to implement a significant portion of President Trump's policy agenda, potentially impacting the U.S. capital markets and global investors profoundly [1][2][5]. Group 1: Economic Impact - The bill is projected to increase the U.S. federal government's debt by approximately $3.8 trillion over the next decade, leading to a larger fiscal deficit and necessitating more government bond issuance [7]. - The increased fiscal deficit may weaken the international purchasing power of the U.S. dollar and could lead the Federal Reserve to maintain higher interest rates, further affecting the dollar's exchange rate [7]. Group 2: Market Reactions - Morgan Stanley predicts that the bill's provisions may extend key tax cuts beneficial to individuals and corporations, but the rising U.S. deficit raises concerns about fiscal sustainability, leading to a bearish outlook on the dollar [7]. - The bill's fiscal stimulus and anticipated interest rate hikes are expected to benefit financial stocks, particularly banks, due to expanded loan spreads enhancing profitability [9]. - Key sectors such as industrials, communication services, and energy may benefit from tax provisions aimed at promoting growth, although rising deficits could lead to prolonged high interest rates, increasing borrowing costs and suppressing asset valuations [9]. Group 3: Sector-Specific Effects - The bill significantly reduces subsidies for clean energy sources like wind and solar, which could adversely affect renewable energy companies reliant on policy support [11]. - Adjustments to investment tax credits for energy storage facilities may provide marginal benefits to the U.S. large-scale storage industry, potentially benefiting domestic companies with strong U.S. market presence, such as Sungrow Power Supply, Canadian Solar, and CATL [11]. - The expansion of U.S. fiscal policy and private sector recovery is expected to drive global asset valuations upward, with the A-share market likely to rise amid a weak dollar trend and supportive policies [11].
原油半年度展望:利空因素逐步消化,下半年谨慎看涨

风险提示:地缘局势变动,关税政策变动,美国经济超预期恶化。 期货(期权)研究报告 利空因素逐步消化,下半年谨慎看涨 请务必阅读正文之后的免责条款部分 [table_main] 宏源公司类模板 行情回顾:上半年油价整体先跌后涨,由 Q1 的低波动阶段转入 Q2 的 高波动阶段。Q1 围绕的核心是特朗上台后政策预期和 OPEC+增产预 期,油价震荡下行;Q2 的特点是超预期,4 月份的关税及增产超预期, 导致油价大幅度下行,5 月份在关税谈判好于预期后震荡修复,6 月份 中东局势的超预期发展使得油价大幅上行,原油从低波动阶段转入高波 动阶段。 下半年行情展望:我们对下半年油价的观点是谨慎看涨。从宏观上看, 美国短期经济虽有压力,但底部有美联储降息支撑,而减税法案带来的 新一轮财政扩张可能支撑经济中长期向好;从基本面上看,下半年供需 存在过剩压力,Q4 压力大于 Q3,但供应端的利空已被逐步计价,偏低 的油价反过来会抑制 OPEC+及页岩油厂商的增产意愿,美国原油库存 处于近五年低位的情况下,油价向上弹性较高。因此整体来看,我们认 为下半年油市处于一个利空因素被逐步消化的过程,同时考虑到 OPEC+增产周期下的过剩 ...
发狠的德国:占GDP 20%的刺激规模,年初“完全不敢想象”
Hua Er Jie Jian Wen· 2025-06-27 08:12
曾以财政保守著称的德国正在上演一场前所未有的政策大转弯。从年初债务刹车改革时的谨慎试探,到如今推出相当于GDP近20%的超大规模刺 激计划,这一转变的幅度和速度让德国人都直呼"完全不敢想象"。 据追风交易台消息,德意志银行最新研究报告显示,德国政府本周在实施财政政策转向方面迈出了重大步伐。执政联盟同意借款近5000亿欧元, 以在2029年前将国防预算提高到北约设定的新目标——占GDP的3.5%,这一速度将超过英国或法国;同时,同意在同一时期借款近3000亿欧元用 于基础设施建设。 德银分析师表示,上述两者合计,财政刺激规模接近GDP的20%——这在年初是不可想象的。按德国的标准,这确实是"不惜一切代价"的财政政 策。尽管议会要到9月才会辩论今年的预算法案,但私营部门可以预期该法案将会通过:执政联盟在最近几周一直顺利且协调地推进预算流程。 分析师补充道,短期内,计划中债务融资支出的提速幅度异常之大——甚至可能过于雄心勃勃。德国政府计划最早在今年就将赤字提高到GDP的 3%以上,明年则接近4%。 史无前例的财政扩张计划 德国政府的预算计划显示出比此前预期更大的财政扩张前置化程度。根据报告,政府计划2025年在国防 ...
