Report Overview - The report analyzes the futures index positions of public funds in Q2 2025, covering aspects such as overall positions, product performance, and overseas futures index positions [3][4]. Product Performance - Public stock long - short strategies recorded positive returns in Q2, with a median quarterly return of 1.12%, but the product scale further declined, with a total reduction of nearly 2 billion shares in 23 products [3]. Overall Futures Index Positions Market and Fund Positions - In Q2, the index started with a large gap due to tariff impacts, pushing futures index discounts to historical extremes. The long - substitution profit margin was large, leading to strong long - position demand from public funds. By Q2 2025, public funds' long positions increased to 28 billion yuan, a quarterly increase of nearly 12 billion yuan, while short positions slightly increased to 5.8 billion yuan, with a total market value of about 33.8 billion yuan, approaching the 2020 peak level but changing from a short - dominated to a long - dominated structure [4][5]. - As of the end of June 2025, the total market position of futures index was 869,454 lots (single - sided calculation), a significant decline from the previous quarter. However, public funds' positions increased counter - cyclically.

Position by Futures Index Types - For long positions, the market values and quarter - on - quarter changes of IH, IF, IC, and IM were 3.51 billion yuan (+1.62 billion yuan), 12.6 billion yuan (+6.99 billion yuan), 7.07 billion yuan (+2.29 billion yuan), and 4.84 billion yuan (+0.92 billion yuan) respectively.

Despite the small discount space of IH and IF in Q2, long positions increased significantly, especially for index ETFs and index - enhanced products. In short positions, IM positions increased for four consecutive quarters, becoming the main hedging product for public funds [10]. Position by Contract Duration - Long positions were mainly concentrated in the current - quarter contract (September), accounting for 60%, a historically high level. The proportion of short - term contract hedging in short positions further increased, with the current - month contract accounting for 45% [10]. Position by Fund Type - By the end of Q2, the number of index - type products did not increase significantly, but the position market value increased substantially, especially for passive index products, with a quarterly increase of over 11 billion yuan, highlighting the value of long substitution. At the same time, short - hedging positions of partial - stock hybrid products increased significantly, indicating stronger hedging demand [4][14]. Overseas Futures Index Positions - Public funds' positions in overseas futures index decreased by nearly 2 billion yuan, with little structural change. NASDAQ 100 Mini Futures and Hang Seng Tech Index Futures remained the two products with the largest positions, with a combined position of nearly 5 billion yuan [3].

Buying IF, IC, and IM long - term contracts on dips is recommended as using stock indexes as a long - position substitute can generate certain excess returns. For near - month contracts, there is a risk of a decline in micro - cap stocks, which may drag down the IC and IM indexes, so caution is advised [3]. Treasury Bond Futures - On the futures side, the long - end bullish force is strong, possibly betting on a further decline in future policy rates. A strategy of short - term long and long - term short is recommended. Short - term T and TL contracts can be bought on dips, and medium - to - long - term T and TL contracts can be hedged on rallies [3]. 3.

In the Shanghai and Shenzhen stock markets, institutional, main, large - scale, and retail investors had net capital inflows of -5.8 billion, -12.8 billion, 2.1 billion, and 16.5 billion yuan respectively, with changes of -2.9 billion, -1 billion, +2.5 billion, and +1.4 billion yuan respectively [2]. - On May 28th, most yields of treasury bond futures declined.

Core Views - For stock index futures, it is speculated that the deep discount of small - cap stock indices recently is due to the expansion of neutral product scale since this year. As the bond bull market has not restarted, the proportion of short positions in neutral products may still be high, so the deep discount may continue. It is recommended to go long on the economy, and it is advisable to allocate IF, IC, IM forward contracts on dips. For near - month contracts, there is a risk of a decline in micro - cap stocks, which may drag down the IC and IM indices, so caution is advised [2]. - For treasury bond futures, although the current spot bonds show a pattern of strong supply and weak demand, this pattern is expected to change in the future. The government bond net supply rhythm may slow down in June, the long - term liability cost of insurance may be lowered in July, and the domestic market risk preference has returned to a defensive style, which may increase the demand for bond market allocation. It is recommended to go long in the short - term and short in the long - term, buy T and TL contracts on dips in the short - term, and hedge T and TL contracts on rallies in the long - term [3]. 3.
