流动性周报:地缘冲突,两会前后,债券如何?-20260302
China Post Securities· 2026-03-02 06:46
Group 1: Report Industry Investment Rating - No information provided Group 2: Core Viewpoints of the Report - In March, bond trading can still be relatively optimistic. The profit - taking operation in the first few working days after the holiday was not strong. Driven by the risk - aversion sentiment, the yield of the 10 - year Treasury bond fell below 1.8% again, indicating that the callback of the resistance level around 1.8% was not effective. The top of the 10 - year Treasury bond yield has moved down, and the phased downward trend continues. There are still bullish driving factors in March, and there is still a chance for the long - end yield to decline. It is recommended to choose the 10 - year variety with low volatility [4][21] Group 3: Summary According to the Directory 1. Geopolitical Conflicts and the Situation of Bonds around the Two Sessions - **Trading Logic after the Festival**: The trading logic of bonds after the festival has not changed much, still following the pre - festival rhythm. After the festival, liquidity is sufficient, and the probability of interest rate cuts during the "Two Sessions" is not high, so the trading sentiment in the bond market may cool down. The relatively loose liabilities of large banks at the beginning of the year drove the increase in the activity of the pre - festival allocation disk, but this may weaken in March. The issuance of ultra - long - term government bonds is still a major concern, and the detailed issuance plan of local bonds in March may pose pressure [10] - **Yield Fluctuation in the First Week after the Festival**: The yield fluctuated greatly in the first week after the festival. The surface trigger factor for the initial rise in yield was the relaxation of real - estate policies in first - tier cities, but the underlying factor was trading profit - taking. The relative weakening of the yield's allocation value after the festival, the continuous increase in supply, and the cooling of the trading of the monetary easing expectation led to an increase in the motivation for profit - taking [10] - **Short - term Impact of Geopolitical Conflicts on Bonds**: Geopolitical conflicts mainly affect risk preference and asset price comparison in the short term. On February 28, when the inter - bank bond market opened, the risk - aversion sentiment caused by geopolitical conflicts led to a decline in the long - end yield by more than 1 BP. Although the risk sentiment may be under pressure in the short term, the impact on domestic bond yields may be limited, and the adjustment is likely to be one - time and short - term. The appreciation of the RMB exchange rate is accelerating, and the central bank has adjusted the foreign exchange risk reserve ratio for forward foreign exchange sales, but exchange rate changes are not the main factor affecting the recent trend of domestic interest rates [13] - **Medium - term Impact of Geopolitical Conflicts on Bonds**: Geopolitical conflicts affect bonds through crude oil prices and inflation transmission in the medium term. After the Russia - Ukraine conflict in 2022, the crude oil price soared, and the domestic CPI energy - related sub - items also rose. Since the beginning of this year, the rise of bulk commodities such as non - ferrous metals and the increase in related stock sectors have intensified inflation concerns. The current geopolitical conflict and the possible short - term rise in crude oil prices may trigger a resonance of inflation expectations, and expected trading may become the main line for some time [15][16] - **Monetary Policy Expectations around the Two Sessions**: Any policy increment in the real - estate or consumption fields may lead to pressure on ultra - long - term Treasury bonds. Policy increments related to fiscal policy may be realized through the expansion of special Treasury bonds, which will increase the supply pressure of ultra - long - term government bonds and may lead to negative pricing of ultra - long - term interest - rate bonds. The probability of an interest rate cut around the Two Sessions is not high, and a reserve requirement ratio cut may be implemented first. A single reserve requirement ratio cut may have limited impact on the short - end, but it is beneficial for the long - end to play the game of easing expectations, compressing the term spread and making the yield curve slightly flatter [17][19]

1. Report's Industry Investment Rating - Not mentioned in the report 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - The credit performance at the beginning of the year was lackluster, and government bonds drove the growth of social financing. In the context of the front - loaded government bond issuance and the weak recovery of corporate medium - and long - term loans, the growth rate of social financing in the first half of 2026 may continue a gentle downward trend [1][6][10] - The increase in the M1 growth rate in January 2026 was mainly due to the Spring Festival factor, and the divergence between the M2 growth rate and the social financing growth rate might be affected by multiple factors such as the increase in the scale of foreign exchange settlement and the low base of non - bank deposits [2][12][16] - The large increase in fiscal deposits led to a withdrawal of funds, and the improvement in liquidity might be due to weak credit demand or the central bank's use of structural tools. Under the expectation of monetary easing, the bond market is expected to continue to strengthen after the Spring Festival [3][19][21][23] 3. Summary by Related Content Credit Situation - In January 2026, the new credit was 4.71 trillion yuan, a year - on - year decrease of 0.42 trillion yuan. Considering the Spring Festival factor, credit demand was even weaker. Corporate credit increased by 44,500 yuan billion, a year - on - year decrease of 3,300 billion yuan, and medium - and long - term loans increased by 31,800 billion yuan, a year - on - year decrease of 2,800 billion yuan. Resident medium - and long - term loans increased by 346.9 billion yuan, a year - on - year decrease of 146.6 billion yuan, mainly dragged down by the weak real estate market [1][6] Social Financing Situation - In January 2026, the new social financing was 7.2 trillion yuan, a year - on - year increase of 165.4 billion yuan. The year - on - year increase in social financing was mainly driven by the large - scale issuance of government bonds, and the year - on - year growth rate of the social financing stock was 8.2%, a slight decrease of 0.1 percentage points from the previous month. The new scale of government bonds in January 2026 was 976.4 billion yuan, a year - on - year increase of 283.1 billion yuan. In the first half of 2026, the growth rate of social financing may continue to decline gently [1][10] M1 and M2 Growth Rate Situation - In January 2026, the year - on - year growth rate of M1 rebounded by 1.1 percentage points to 4.9%, mainly due to the Spring Festival misalignment factor, which pushed up the year - on - year growth rate of M1 in January by about 1.3 percentage points [2][12][14] - From November last year to January this year, the year - on - year growth rate of M2 increased by 1.0 percentage point to 9.0%, while the growth rate of the social financing stock slowed down by 0.3 percentage points to 8.2%. The increase in the foreign exchange settlement ratio and the large year - on - year increase in non - bank deposits might be the reasons for the divergence between the two [2][16] Liquidity Situation - The increase in foreign exchange settlement did not form liquidity injection, and the large increase in fiscal deposits in January led to a withdrawal of liquidity. However, the liquidity was actually very loose in January. One reason was the weak credit demand, and the other was the possible use of structural tools by the central bank [3][19][21] Bond Market Outlook - Currently, social financing is weak. Under the expectation of the use of aggregate monetary tools and loose money, the bond market is expected to continue to strengthen after the Spring Festival, with short - term interest rates likely to decline further, and the dumbbell strategy on the curve is relatively more advantageous [3][23]

Group 1: Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided Group 2: Core Views of the Report - The short - term view of TL2603 is shock, the medium - term view is shock, the intraday view is weak, and the reference view is shock consolidation due to the decreased possibility of a comprehensive interest rate cut in the short term [1]. - For varieties TL, T, TF, TS, the intraday view is weak, the medium - term view is shock, and the reference view is shock consolidation. Currently, treasury bond futures are in a shock - consolidation stage with limited upside and downside. Due to the marginal weakening of December's consumption, investment, and new residential credit data, the problem of insufficient effective domestic demand still exists, and there are still expectations of monetary easing, providing strong support for treasury bond futures. However, the central bank implemented a structural interest rate cut in January, so the possibility of a comprehensive interest rate cut in the short term is low, limiting the upside space of treasury bond futures. In general, treasury bond futures will mainly experience shock consolidation in the short term [5]. Group 3: Summary by Related Catalogs Variety Views Reference - Financial Futures Stock Index Sector - For TL2603, the short - term is shock, the medium - term is shock, the intraday is weak, the view reference is shock consolidation, and the core logic is the decreased short - term possibility of a comprehensive interest rate cut [1]. Main Variety Price Market Driving Logic - Financial Futures Stock Index Sector - For varieties TL, T, TF, TS, the intraday view is weak, the medium - term view is shock, the reference view is shock consolidation. The core logic is that treasury bond futures had a narrow - range shock consolidation yesterday, are in a shock - consolidation stage with limited upside and downside. Weak December data leads to expectations of monetary easing, supporting treasury bond futures, while the January structural interest rate cut reduces the short - term possibility of a comprehensive interest rate cut, limiting the upside [5].

Core Viewpoints of the Report - The short - term and medium - term outlook for TL2603 is "oscillating", and the intraday view is "weakening", with an overall view of "oscillating consolidation". The core reason is that the possibility of a short - term comprehensive interest rate cut has decreased [1]. - For varieties such as TL, T, TF, and TS, the intraday view is "weakening", the medium - term view is "oscillating", and the reference view is "oscillating consolidation". Currently, treasury bond futures are in an oscillating consolidation market. In the short term, both the upside and downside spaces are limited.

Due to insufficient domestic demand and policy support for innovation and consumption, future monetary policy is expected to be loose. However, the macro - demand side has strong resilience, and the short - term urgency for a comprehensive interest rate cut is weak. So, short - term treasury bond futures will mainly oscillate and consolidate [5]
