Summary of the Conference Call on Bond Market Investment Strategy Industry Overview - The focus is on the bond market, specifically the investment strategies for November 2025, highlighting a strong but limited downward movement in bond prices with low risk [1][4]. Key Points and Arguments - **Economic Expectations**: Investors have high expectations for a strong economic start in the coming year, supported by positive developments in US-China trade negotiations and potential recovery in PMI data [1][3]. - **Interest Rate Trends**: The ten-year government bond yield needs more favorable conditions to effectively drop below 1.7%. Current conditions show a 7,000 fund level around 1.4, indicating a loose but not extremely low liquidity environment [2][3]. - **Duration Strategy**: It is recommended to maintain a neutral to slightly high duration strategy in November, focusing on opportunities to compress spreads, particularly in 30-year non-active bonds, 50-year government bonds, and 5-10 year active government bonds [5][11]. - **Short-term vs Long-term Bonds**: Short-term certificates of deposit are not cost-effective, while short-term government bonds are less likely to decline due to central bank purchases. If short-term rates continue to decline, a bullet strategy is preferred; if rates fluctuate, a balanced approach between bullet and barbell strategies is suggested [6][10]. - **Central Bank Actions**: The central bank restarted government bond trading to stabilize the balance sheet and as a long-term liquidity tool. This move is crucial given the declining balance of central government debt from January to September [7][8]. - **Government Bond Supply**: Although the net financing scale of government bonds in Q4 is lower than last year, it is still significant, necessitating central bank cooperation. The expected net financing scale for November to December is approximately 1.7 trillion, lower than last year's nearly 3 trillion [9][10]. - **Future Monetary Policy**: There is a high probability of interest rate cuts next year, although the likelihood of cuts within the year is low. The central bank may adopt a more flexible approach to reserve requirement ratio adjustments based on market conditions [10][12]. - **Investment Recommendations**: For 10-year government bonds, the new bond 220 is less attractive compared to the main bond 215 due to its small issuance scale. Recommendations include focusing on high-value long-term bonds such as the 30-year and 50-year government bonds [11][12]. - **Floating Rate Bonds**: Floating rate bonds benefit from declining short-term rates, but many are currently overpriced. Investors are advised to selectively focus on specific floating rate products [13]. - **Bond Futures Strategies**: The December contract IR2 is at a high level, suggesting effective hedging strategies using bond futures. Specific analysis is required for different contracts during the November rollover [14]. Other Important Insights - The overall bond market is expected to remain strong with limited downside risk, indicating a cautious but optimistic outlook for investors [4]. - The central bank's actions are crucial for maintaining liquidity and supporting the bond market amid fluctuating economic conditions [8][10].

1. Report's Industry Investment Rating The provided content does not mention the industry investment rating. 2. Report's Core View - Adopt short - and medium - term credit as the foundation, conduct band - trading on secondary and perpetual bonds, and be cautious about chasing long - term credit. The central bank's bond - buying is not a one - time benefit. It aims to promote banks to expand their balance sheets and absorb the fourth - quarter supply. There may be more measures to encourage bank bond - buying, and the bond market is likely to turn around in the fourth quarter, but the process will not be rapid. Short - duration credit remains the core, secondary and perpetual bonds can be traded in bands, and long - term credit should be approached with caution [5][8]. - In terms of specific allocation, continue to explore the steeper parts of the 2 - 3Y yield curve. There are many entities with a 3Y - 2Y term spread of over 25bp in public bonds, and there is also a wide range of bond selection with a 5Y - 3Y term spread between 30 - 40bp [5][10]. 3. Summary According to Relevant Catalogs 3.1 Credit Bond Weekly View - The central bank's restart of treasury bond trading enhanced Q4 liquidity, leading to a rapid decline in bond yields and a rise in credit bonds, especially in the medium - and long - term. Future central bank policies may further boost the bond market. Short - duration credit is the base, secondary and perpetual bonds can be traded in bands, and long - term credit should be chased cautiously [5][8]. - Suggest exploring the 2 - 3Y steeper parts of the yield curve, with favorable term - spread conditions for bond selection [5][10]. 3.2 Credit Bond Weekly Review 3.2.1 Negative Information Monitoring - From October 27 to November 2, there was no downgrade in corporate or bond ratings.

The net financing was 126 billion yuan, indicating a basic balance between inflow and outflow. Two bonds with a total scale of 700 million yuan were cancelled or postponed. The issuance cost fluctuated slightly, with the AA+ level rising slightly [13][14]. 3.2.3 Secondary Trading - The repair slope of credit bonds of all grades and tenors increased, with a central decline of about - 6bp. Credit spreads widened at the short end and narrowed at the long end. The 5Y - 1Y term spread of all grades narrowed significantly, and the 3Y - 1Y spread narrowed slightly.

Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. Core Viewpoints of the Report - Since the US "reciprocal tariff" took effect on April 3, 2025, Sino-US trade frictions have occurred from time to time. The bond market usually prices tariff events quickly, and the impact amplitude and persistence may weaken as tariff frictions become more normalized. If subsequent Sino-US tariff games continue, bond yields may first decline rapidly and then fluctuate on a new platform [2]. - After the tariff event, risk appetite may cool slightly compared to the third quarter. If the equity market weakens, the stock-bond seesaw effect will support the bond market, and the market's expectation of the central bank's interest rate cut may fluctuate, promoting a phased easing of bond market sentiment. However, the bond market is still in a volatile market, and the space for a significant decline in yields is limited. It may fluctuate around a new range of 1.7%-1.75% in the short term [3][35]. - In the future, it is necessary to pay attention to the progress of Sino-US negotiations and the reaction of the equity market. The configuration disk does not need to replenish positions immediately but can gradually build positions during market adjustments. The trading disk can operate in small bands of 3-5bp. Credit bonds may have a supplementary increase, and attention should be paid to the coupon opportunities of general credit bonds and the short-term trading opportunities of perpetual bonds [4]. Summary by Directory I. Tariff Disturbances Recur, but This Time It's Different (1) Event Review: Sino-US Frictions Have Intensified Since October - On the evening of October 10, Trump announced an additional 100% tariff on Chinese goods exported to the US starting from November 1, and export controls on all key software. Since October, frictions have emerged in multiple aspects such as ship fees, rare earth export controls, and anti-monopoly investigations. This event is similar to the April tariff event but different in the game situation, with stronger controllability and leaving room for subsequent negotiations [7][12]. (2) Bond Market Performance: Long-Term Pricing Is Fast, and Both Trading and Allocation Enter Actively - On the morning of October 11, bond yields declined rapidly, with both interest rate and credit bonds recovering. The yields of 10y and 30y treasury bonds and 10y CDB bonds declined by 3-5bp, outperforming the short-term. High-grade credit bond yields generally declined, with bonds over 5 years performing better, especially the perpetual bonds of banks leading the rise. Institutions such as funds and securities firms actively went long on interest rate bonds [7][17][22]. II. How Has Tariff Disturbance Affected the Market This Year? - Since the US "reciprocal tariff" took effect on April 3, Sino-US trade frictions have affected the bond market. By sorting out the performance of the 10-year treasury bond active bond at 9 key tariff points, it is found that the bond market usually prices tariff events quickly, and the impact amplitude and persistence may weaken as tariff frictions become more normalized. The yield range of the 10-year treasury bond active bond mostly fluctuates within 3BP, and the bond market usually completes pricing within 4 trading days [2][29][34]. III. The Bond Market's Short-Term Sentiment Eases, and Attention Should Be Paid to Gradually Adding Positions During Fluctuations - After the tariff event, bond yields may still have a small downward space, but the bond market is still in a volatile market, and the space for a significant decline in yields is limited. It may fluctuate around a new range of 1.7%-1.75% in the short term. In the future, it is necessary to pay attention to the progress of Sino-US negotiations and the reaction of the equity market. Different investment strategies are proposed for different types of investors, and credit bonds may have a supplementary increase [3][35][40]. IV. Review of the Interest Rate Bond Market: The Stock Market's Phased Volatility and the Escalation of Tariff Frictions Have Eased Bond Market Sentiment (1) Funding Situation: The Central Bank's OMO Has Significantly Net Recovered, and the Funding Situation Is Balanced and Loose - The central bank's OMO has significantly net recovered funds, but the overall funding situation is balanced and loose. DR001 and DR007 weighted prices have declined, and the funding sentiment index has been relatively stable [11][50][51]. (2) Primary Issuance: The Net Financing of Treasury Bonds, Policy Financial Bonds, and Interbank Certificates of Deposit Has Increased, While the Net Financing of Local Bonds Has Decreased - The net financing of treasury bonds, policy financial bonds, and interbank certificates of deposit has increased, while the net financing of local bonds has decreased [57][59][61]. (3) Benchmark Changes: The Term Spreads of Treasury Bonds and CDB Bonds Have Both Narrowed - The short-term yields of treasury bonds and CDB bonds have declined, and the long-term yields have declined more significantly, resulting in a narrowing of the term spreads [55].

Core Viewpoint - The bond market showed signs of recovery on August 25, with government bond futures rising across the board and interbank bond yields gradually decreasing, indicating a cautious but optimistic outlook for bond investments during a slow bull market in equities [1][2][7]. Market Performance - Government bond futures closed significantly higher, with the 30-year main contract up by 0.78%, the 10-year main contract up by 0.27%, the 5-year main contract up by 0.15%, and the 2-year main contract up by 0.10% [2]. - The interbank bond yields saw a downward trend, with the 30-year government bond yield decreasing by 3.5 basis points to 2.0025%, and the 10-year government bond yield down by 2 basis points to 1.765% [2]. Fund Flow - The People's Bank of China conducted a 288.4 billion yuan reverse repurchase operation at a fixed rate of 1.40%, resulting in a net injection of 21.9 billion yuan for the day [5]. - The central bank also announced a 600 billion yuan Medium-term Lending Facility (MLF) operation, indicating a net injection of 300 billion yuan for August, marking the sixth consecutive month of increased MLF operations [5]. Institutional Insights - Huatai Securities maintains a view that investors should prioritize equities over convertible bonds, while also suggesting that the current market conditions allow for strategic bond investments to enhance portfolio returns [7]. - CITIC Securities emphasizes that the bond market can still provide positive returns even during equity market uptrends, suggesting a strategy of capitalizing on bond rebounds during equity market corrections [7]. - Shenwan Hongyuan highlights that while leverage has decreased, risks remain, and the crowded trading environment in the bond market necessitates a cautious approach [7].

Core Insights - The report suggests that a long-term bullish asset breaking below the annual line typically indicates a good entry point, recommending investors adopt a persistent mindset and defensive counterattack strategy in response to the current insufficient Calmar ratio in the bond market [1][3][21] Group 1: Asset Price and Annual Line - The annual line (MA250) serves as a medium to long-term trend anchor, representing the average cost over the past year and is viewed as the market's long-term equilibrium price. A price drop below this line often signals a weakening market sentiment and a potential trend reversal [11][12] - A downward breach of the annual line is interpreted as a bearish signal, indicating that the market may be entering a medium to long-term bear phase, which could trigger stop-loss or reduction actions among investors [11][12] Group 2: Review of Mainstream Assets - The 10-year government bond futures exhibit a clear long-term momentum trend, with strong support expected near the annual line. Historical analysis shows that the T contract has often rebounded after touching the annual line, indicating potential for recovery [13][14] - The Shanghai Composite Index has experienced multiple breaches of the annual line in recent years, with significant volatility and no clear support at the annual line, leading to substantial annual drawdowns [17][18] - The Nasdaq Index has shown a similar pattern, with significant movements around the annual line, reflecting the impact of macroeconomic factors and investor sentiment on its performance [20][22] Group 3: Market Sentiment and Strategy - The report emphasizes that unless a long-term bull market is confirmed to have ended, the current situation presents a favorable entry point for investors. The historical performance of the T contract supports this view, as most years have proven effective for entry after a breach of the annual line [3][21] - Short-term downward momentum may persist due to concentrated stop-loss releases following the breach, but as long as the bull market trend continues, the report suggests that opportunities outweigh risks [3][21]
