Report Industry Investment Rating No investment rating information is provided in the report. Core Viewpoints - Long - term, major inflection points of convertible bonds are basically synchronous with equities, and capital behavior determines the actual performance of convertible bonds in trending markets. Short - term, capital attitude and behavior determine the performance of convertible bonds around phased inflection points. The convertible bond index may enter a volatile phase in the short term, following changes in the equity market with potentially increased market volatility [1][3][12] - After the adjustment, the average price of convertible bonds has declined, the conversion premium rate has decreased, and the problem of over - valued convertible bonds has been alleviated [19] Summary by Directory 1. Convertible Bond Weekly Thinking - Past week, both the equity and convertible bond markets adjusted, stabilized, and rebounded, with convertible bonds performing slightly better than underlying stocks. The Shanghai Composite Index fluctuated above 3800 points, being weak in the first four trading days and significantly rebounding on Friday. The Wind Convertible Bond Equal - Weighted Index rose 0.51% last week, while the Convertible Bond Underlying Stock Equal - Weighted Index fell 0.75%, and the overall market premium rate increased [10] - Since August 27, the amplitude of the convertible bond market has increased, with different driving factors. On August 27 and September 1, the adjustment was mainly due to capital outflows from the convertible bond market, and convertible bonds underperformed underlying stocks. On September 2, the decline and on September 5, the increase were mainly due to changes in the equity market, with parity driving the performance of convertible bonds. On September 5, the high follow - up performance of convertible bonds was due to capital represented by convertible bond ETFs turning to net inflows [2][11] - Absolute return funds have shifted from direct to indirect holding of convertible bonds. In August, institutions other than public funds basically reduced their holdings of convertible bonds due to the shrinking market size, while public funds continued the growth trend from July. From July to August, absolute return funds such as wealth management subsidiaries and trusts continuously reduced their direct holdings of convertible bonds but indirectly held them by buying fixed - income + funds and convertible bond ETFs. The large - scale inflow of fixed - income + funds, likely synchronous with convertible bond ETFs, started in mid - to - early July, driving up the valuation of convertible bonds. Recently, the attitude of fixed - income + funds has changed due to market fluctuations. Convertible bond ETFs had net outflows on September 1 and 2 and large net inflows on September 5. The previous adjustment of convertible bonds was mainly due to the profit - taking sentiment of absolute return funds, and the weak recovery this time is because the price and valuation of the convertible bond market have reached absolute highs, resulting in the convertible bond trend leading that of the equity market slightly [4][15][16] 2.
