来源：余丰慧 美联储放大招！降息25基点+月购450亿美债，超级宽松炸穿全球市场？ "不止降息！鲍威尔要带美联储重启购债了！" 距离12月10日FOMC议息会议仅剩3天，前纽约联储回购专家、美银顶流策略师Mark Cabana的一则预测，让全 球金融圈瞬间沸腾——除了市场板上钉钉的25个基点降息，美联储将同步宣布每月450亿美元国库券购买计划，2026年1月正式落地，一场"降息+扩表"的超 级宽松风暴即将来袭！ 这背后是"流动性偏好理论"的现实投射：硅谷银行倒闭后，美国银行普遍倾向于持有更高现金缓冲，即便美联储停止缩表，准备金缺口仍在扩大。纽约联储 主席John Williams直言"不久后将达到充裕准备金水平"，达拉斯联储主席Lorie Logan也明确"恢复资产负债表增长合适"，而Cabana精准解读："不久后"就是 12月会议。 很多人会把这次购债和QE混为一谈，但核心逻辑完全不同。瑞银交易部门点明关键：此次购买集中在短期国库券，目的是缩短资产久期、匹配国债市场平 均久期，本质是"流动性管理操作（RMP）"，而非刺激经济的QE。但无论名称如何，结果都是向市场直接注入巨量资金——每月450亿美元，相当于给 ...

Core Viewpoint - The phenomenon of increased savings in China amidst low interest rates is a paradox that reflects economic uncertainty and a shift in wealth management strategies [1][10]. Group 1: Savings Trends - In July 2025, the People's Bank of China reported a significant year-on-year increase of 8.7% in RMB deposits, with household deposits rising by 9.66 trillion yuan, marking a historical high for the same period [1]. - A survey indicated that 63.8% of urban residents preferred to save more, a rise of 1.5 percentage points from the previous quarter, while only 23.3% were inclined to consume more [3]. - The precautionary savings rate reached 39.2% in Q1 2025, while the consumption propensity index fell to a six-year low of 61.4, indicating a clear inverse relationship between savings and consumption [5]. Group 2: Economic Context - The current savings trend aligns with Keynes' "liquidity preference" theory, where individuals prefer liquid assets during economic downturns to mitigate potential risks [5]. - Despite a stable urban unemployment rate of 5.3% in Q1 2025, structural changes in the job market have heightened income uncertainty, prompting families to increase savings as a risk management strategy [5]. Group 3: Monetary Policy Impact - The People's Bank of China has implemented multiple interest rate cuts since 2025 to lower financing costs, yet this has inadvertently led to a surge in savings deposits instead of stimulating investment and consumption [6]. - Residents' investment preferences have shifted, with 34.8% opting for "bank non-principal guaranteed wealth management" and 24.7% for "fund trust products," while only 16.3% chose "stocks" [6]. Group 4: Structural Changes in Savings - The savings structure in China is beginning to mirror Japan's experience, where the proportion of demand deposits increased significantly in a low-interest environment [7]. - As interest rates decline, more savers are prioritizing liquidity over yield, indicating a fundamental shift in wealth management logic [7]. Group 5: Strategic Recommendations - Households are advised to maintain a liquidity reserve of 3-6 months of living expenses, optimize insurance configurations, and cautiously engage in policy-guided investments [9]. - Future policies aimed at developing offshore RMB markets and optimizing currency integration may provide residents with more diverse investment options [9].

Report Industry Investment Rating - The report does not provide an investment rating for the industry [1][3][10][14][22][39][49][83] Core Viewpoints - The determination of the interest rate term structure is the result of the combined effects of liquidity preference, rational expectations, and term preference. The current flat state of China's interest rate term structure has rationality and inertia, but it is difficult to further flatten, and a slow steepening may occur in the next stage [3][13][83] - The general change rule of the interest rate term structure in the US and Japan conforms to the rational expectations theory, with the main change patterns being "bull steepening" or "bear flattening." However, under some special conditions, the term preference theory also has certain explanatory power. When the short - end yield "hits bottom," the change in the curve shape is also special, mainly dominated by the long - end yield [3][21][83] - Since the end of 2024, China's interest rate term structure has experienced a relatively rare "bull flattening," which may be related to the flattening of inflation expectations from a rational expectations perspective and the term preferences of institutional investors such as insurance and banks from a term preference perspective [3][22][83] - Currently, it is advisable to analyze the pricing of long - and short - end interest rates separately. The short - end yield depends on policy expectations, and the long - end yield depends on the real estate cycle [3][39][84] - The "anti - involution" effect will determine the amplitude of the curve steepening. There may be an interdependent cycle relationship among real estate prosperity, "anti - involution," and nominal economic growth, and the conditions for curve steepening are accumulating [3][52][84] Summary by Directory 1. Interest Rate Term Structure Theory Overview - The theoretical hypotheses about the interest rate term structure mainly include the liquidity preference theory, rational expectations theory, market segmentation theory, and term preference theory. The liquidity preference theory can explain why the yield curve slopes upward to the right under normal conditions, the rational expectations theory can explain the common change patterns of the yield curve, the market segmentation theory can explain various yield curve shapes, and the term preference theory combines the rational expectations theory and the market segmentation theory [10][11][12] 2. Historical Experience of Interest Rate Term Structures in the US and Japan - The historical experience of the US Treasury yield curve change basically conforms to the theoretical predictions, mainly switching between "bull steepening" and "bear flattening." Special phenomena include the "Greenspan Conundrum" and the "zero - interest - rate" stage from 2009 - 2015. The Japanese Treasury yield curve also had a long - term low short - end yield stage, and the long - end yield dominated the curve shape [14][17][18] 3. Changes in China's Interest Rate Term Structure 3.1 Recent Changes in China's Interest Rate Term Structure - Since the end of 2024, China's Treasury yield curve has experienced a rare "bull flattening," which may be related to the flattening of long - term inflation expectations and the term preferences of institutional investors [22][25] 3.2 China's Interest Rate Term Structure from a Rational Expectations Perspective - China's current economic growth is stronger than that of the US and Japan during their "zero - interest - rate" periods, so the short - term interest rate floor is higher. The long - end yield may be affected by the flattening of inflation expectations [26][27] 3.3 China's Interest Rate Term Structure from a Term Preference Perspective - The flattening of China's interest rate term structure is related to the term preferences of institutional investors such as insurance and banks. Insurance institutions' increasing bond - holding share and commercial banks' preference for long - term bonds due to factors like net interest margin and mortgage rates have contributed to this [31][33][34] 4. Analysis of China's Interest Rate Term Structure Change Patterns - Currently, it is recommended to analyze the pricing of long - and short - end yields separately. The short - end yield depends on policy expectations, and the long - end yield depends on the real estate cycle [39][41][45] 5. "Anti - Involution" and Interest Rate Term Structure 5.1 Prospects for Changes in China's Interest Rate Term Structure - It is difficult for China's interest rate term structure to further flatten. The bank system may lack the willingness to further lower long - end yields. The term structure's trend towards "bull steepening" or "bear steepening" requires fundamental conditions [49][50][51] 5.2 "Anti - Involution" and Interest Rate Term Structure Steepening - As of July 2025, China's PPI has been declining year - on - year for 34 months, and the CPI has stabilized. "Anti - involution" drives price adjustment expectations, but the realization of these expectations requires a suitable liquidity environment. The effect of "anti - involution" may be closely related to foreign trade and the real estate sector [52][54][59] 5.3 Nominal Economic Growth, "Anti - Involution," and Real Estate Prosperity - There may be an interdependent cycle relationship among real estate prosperity, "anti - involution," and nominal economic growth. The conditions for curve steepening are accumulating, including improved monetary activity, the stabilization of real estate prosperity, and the reduced need for further interest rate cuts in the short term [72][74][76] 6. Conclusion and Outlook - The determination of the interest rate term structure is the result of the combined effects of liquidity preference, rational expectations, and term preference. The current flat state of China's interest rate term structure has rationality and inertia, but it is difficult to further flatten, and a slow steepening may occur in the next stage [83][84][85]
