Core Viewpoint - The bond market has shown a strong performance recently, with various fixed-income products experiencing growth in returns, particularly those with embedded options [2][3][11]. Summary by Sections Fixed Income Product Performance - In the past month, the bond market experienced fluctuations, with rates generally declining. Various stable products saw an increase in net value, especially option-embedded fixed income products, followed by medium- and long-term bond funds [3][9]. - As of June 18, the monthly returns for different products were as follows: option-embedded bond funds at 0.54% (previously 0.62%), medium-term bond funds at 0.31% (previously 0.13%), short-term bond funds at 0.18% (previously 0.19%), high-grade interbank certificates of deposit index funds at 0.15% (previously 0.18%), and cash management products at 0.11% (unchanged) [3][10]. Bond Market Review - The bond market showed a pattern of weakness followed by strength, influenced by market sentiment and liquidity conditions. The tightening of liquidity in late May, combined with the U.S.-China trade meeting in early June, initially suppressed bond market performance. However, after the month transitioned, the central bank's supportive stance on liquidity led to a recovery [11][12]. - The one-year AAA interbank certificate of deposit rate fell to approximately 1.65%, a slight decrease from the previous month, indicating a shift towards a more favorable liquidity environment [12][15]. Market Outlook - In the short term, the bond market is expected to maintain a low-interest, low-volatility trend, with the 10-year government bond yield projected to fluctuate between 1.5% and 1.8%, centered around 1.7% [31][34]. - Credit bonds are anticipated to outperform interest rate bonds, with credit spreads likely to remain relatively low, minimizing the risk of significant widening [34]. Asset Management Industry Trends - The scale of wealth management products increased to 31.3 trillion yuan by the end of May, reflecting a 1.6% month-on-month growth. This growth is attributed to the decline in bank deposit rates, which has made wealth management products more attractive [36]. - On May 23, the National Financial Regulatory Administration released a draft for asset management product information disclosure, allowing for more flexible performance benchmark disclosures, which may influence investor behavior in the long term [36]. Investment Strategy Recommendations - For investors needing liquidity management, maintaining cash-like products and considering stable low-volatility wealth management or short-term bond funds is advisable [39]. - For conservative investors, holding pure bond products with a potential extension of duration is recommended, especially as the 10-year government bond yield approaches 1.7%-1.8% [40]. - For more advanced conservative investors, continuing to hold fixed-income plus products is suggested, with a focus on incorporating convertible bonds and equity assets into the strategy [41].

The reduction of bank deposit rates led to the "deposit relocation" effect, increasing the allocation demand for credit bonds by wealth management products. Urban investment bond yields showed a unilateral decline. However, at the end of the month, the bond market adjusted due to tariff policy fluctuations and institutional behavior changes [54]. - In the short - term, the spreads of each implied rating for short - term bonds have reached historical lows. The main capital gain space may lie in the compression of grade spreads and term spreads.

As of May 31, the valuation yields of urban investment bonds with each implied rating from 1 - year to 5 - year have reached historical lows, and the three - year percentiles are all at extremely low levels of 5% and below. The credit spreads have also reached lows, with the three - year percentiles of 1 - year and 3 - year ratings below 10%. Only 5 - year bonds still have compression space [59]. 2.2.2 Secondary Trading: Increased Activity Month - on - Month, Medium - and Long - Term Bonds Lead the Gains - In May 2025, the sample trading records of urban investment bonds were about 16,000, with an average daily trading volume of about 841, a month - on - month increase of 1.1%.
