近期围绕人工智能的负面预期持续扰动市场。支付公司Block(XYZ.US)宣布因AI效率提升裁员40%，加 剧了投资者对技术进步可能带来大规模就业流失的担忧。本周稍早一份有关AI或对经济与就业产生深 远影响的报告，也放大了市场焦虑情绪。 与此同时，信贷风险的抬头进一步冲击金融股。对经济周期更为敏感的消费金融机构表现尤为疲弱，美 国运通(AXP.US)、第一资本信贷(COF.US)和Synchrony Financial(SYF.US)均位列跌幅前列。 私人信贷领域的动荡同样令投资者不安。去年多笔知名贷款出现损失后，相关投资工具的赎回请求增 加。周五，两只上市的私人信贷基金宣布削减分红，进一步加剧市场对潜在坏账上升的担忧。 在人工智能冲击与高风险信贷担忧交织之下，美国银行板块周五遭遇重挫，多家大型银行和投行股价大 幅下跌，反映出投资者对经济前景的不安情绪升温。 美国银行(BAC.US)跌超4%，花旗集团(C.US)和富国银行(WFC.US)均收跌逾5%，摩根士丹利(MS.US)跌 超过6%，高盛集团(GS.US)跌超7%，而美国最大银行摩根大通(JPM.US)下跌1.9%。衡量银行板块表现 的KBW银行指数ET ...

信贷市场坏账风险持续发酵，一系列备受瞩目的企业违约事件引发华尔街高度警惕。在近期英国非银金融机构倒闭事件的冲击波下，私募信贷巨 头受到波及，Apollo全球管理旗下基金被迫下调估值并削减派息。 这一事件迅速在资本市场引发连锁反应，相关金融机构股价纷纷下挫。受此拖累，Jefferies Financial Group股价暴跌近9.8%，Apollo股价下滑达 4.7%。此外，巴克莱银行和桑坦德银行的股价亦在开盘后走低，跌幅分别为3.8%和1.7%。 据华尔街见闻此前文章，英国贷款机构Market Financial Solutions（简称MFS）近日轰然倒闭并进入英国破产管理程序。法庭文件显示，该机构内 部实体指控其存在"严重违规"及抵押品"重大缺口"，导致为其提供融资的多家华尔街巨头面临巨额潜在损失。 桑坦德集团 NYSE: SAN : 12.94 USD -0.27 (2.04%) ↓ 今天 收盘时间: 2月27日 GMT-5上午7:39 • 免责声明 开盘前 12.91 −0.030 (0.23%) 1 个月 6 个月 ５天 YTD 1 年 最大 1 天 5 年 13.2 = 昨日 13.05 USD ...

这一事件或进一步加剧市场对信贷承销标准宽松的担忧。摩根大通首席执行官杰米.戴蒙于周一公开表 示，一些竞争对手为提升回报正在做"蠢事"，这让他想起了2008年金融危机爆发前的那些年。而去年美 国汽车零部件供应商First Brands Group和次级汽车贷款机构Tricolor Holdings的倒闭，已引发华尔街对信 贷风险的广泛关注。 报道称，巴克莱银行、Atlas SP Partners等机构曾协助MFS完成超20亿英镑(约合27亿美元)的贷款安排。 Atlas方面证实自身作为优先债权人参与此次事件，表示正在"通过一切法律途径，力争最大限度地收 回"4亿英镑的敞口。巴克莱银行未就此事置评。不过，在MFS破产案件的听证会上，负责审理该案的一 名法官表示，巴克莱银行在该事件中的风险敞口约为6亿英镑。 此外，据一位知情人士称，杰富瑞对MFS的风险敞口约为1亿英镑。另有知情人士表示，Castlelake曾安 排一项贷款融资，其未偿还金额约为4亿英镑。不过，Castlelake发言人在一份电子邮件声明中表示，公 司并不存在对MFS的直接无担保风险敞口。 英国抵押贷款融资公司Market Financial Sol ...

智通财经APP获悉，汇丰银行策略师表示，在围绕人工智能(AI)的乐观情绪推动收益率溢价降至数十年来最低水平之后，信贷投资者应当防范与"AI亢奋"相 关的潜在下行风险。汇丰策略师Song Jin Lee和Tom Russell在一份报告中写道："在美国，近期美国GDP增长中相当一部分与AI相关——无论是通过投资支出 直接推动，还是通过AI相关股票带来的财富效应间接推动。任何令人失望的情况，都可能通过多个渠道在信贷市场中产生回响。" 在当前利差水平下，指出信贷风险偏向并非只有汇丰一家。高盛集团资产配置研究主管Christian Mueller-Glissmann本周在接受采访时表示，"信贷是最薄弱 的一环"，投资者面临与美元和日元相关的潜在"利差套利回撤风险"。他目前对信贷持低配立场，但基于盈利前景对股票持超配观点。 汇丰敦促投资者考虑多元化策略，与美国科技公司债券保持一定距离，并指出欧元区信贷中的部分板块对AI周期的敞口较小。策略师认为，美国经济和AI 进一步上行所带来的大部分收益将归于股票持有人，而非债权人。 报告还称，即便AI出现上行意外，美国私募信贷仍对高收益软件公司存在显著敞口，而这些公司的商业模式可能 ...

Schelde列举了特朗普接管格陵兰岛的言论，作为促使该基金远离美债的原因之一。他对财政纪律和美 元走软的担忧也证明了从美国风险敞口撤退是合理的。 这一进展发生之际，特朗普正不断升级他接管格陵兰岛的威胁，这在丹麦的欧洲盟友中引发了恐慌。作 为丹麦王国一部分的格陵兰岛一直回应特朗普购买该岛的努力，声明它是非卖品。 丹麦养老基金AkademikerPension计划在月底前退出美国国债市场，因为担心美国总统特朗普的政策制 造了大到无法忽视的信贷风险。 "美国基本上信用状况不佳，而且长期来看，美国政府的财政是不可持续的，"AkademikerPension的首席 投资官Anders Schelde周二指出。 Schelde表示，管理着约250亿美元教师和学者储蓄的AkademikerPension，在2025年底持有约1亿美元的 美国国债。留在美债市场的唯一原因是风险和流动性管理，而且"我们决定我们可以找到替代方案，"他 说。 虽然在美国国债市场的背景下这只是沧海一粟，但在当前的政治背景下，AkademikerPension的撤资计 划标志着重要的象征性一步，因为机构投资者正在重新思考什么是避险资产。 德意志银行早 ...
