Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. Core Views - Focus on the intensity of external risks, which may provide an unexpected difference in the aggregate demand policy in 2026. The policy goal is "stable economic growth and reasonable price recovery", and price remains an important consideration for monetary policy. Externally, since 2026, the situation from South America to the Middle East has escalated, with frequent geopolitical and trade conflicts. Internally, the impact of "external shocks" has increased, and policies are in the stage of observing the impact transmission [2]. - The macro - policy continues the requirements of "strong supply and weak demand" and "cross - cycle adjustment" in the fourth quarter. Price remains the focus of the central bank's monetary policy. In terms of monetary policy, "promoting the low - level operation of the comprehensive social financing cost" is postponed, and "regulating the operation of the credit market and reducing the intermediate financing costs" is added. As the cycle may pick up, regulatory policies may be strengthened compared with the loosening of aggregate policies. In terms of structural policies, the support order for key areas remains unchanged, with aggregate demand remaining the top priority. Policy support for investment has increased and spread from the "two - heavy" and "two - new" areas to a wider range, which may be the area with an unexpected difference in monetary policy in 2026. The deletion of "jointly maintaining the stable development of the financial market" and "using the swap facilities of securities, funds, and insurance companies and the relending for stock repurchase and increase, and exploring a normalized institutional arrangement" may mean that monetary policy will further enhance its support for the economic structure and the real economy under the state of "optimizing tool management" [3]. - The exchange - rate policy is the same as in the third and fourth quarters. Under external conflicts, the pressure on the RMB side has been alleviated [4]. - The macro - strategy tone remains unchanged. In the second quarter, pay attention to the possibility of a shift from defense to offense. The monetary policy continues the characteristic of increasing demand for price recovery since the fourth quarter, which comes from the "cross - cycle" on the supply side and the unexpected difference in investment on the demand side. The positive judgment of the macro - strategy in 2026 is maintained. The forward - looking monetary policy may drive the market volatility to be relatively stable. In the time window of the cycle transition, maintain a neutral position on short - term equities, observe the evolution of external conflicts, and reduce the hedging ratio as the volatility rises. The interest - rate market continues to focus on the phased trading opportunities after the rapid rise of the long - end [5]. Summary by Directory 1. "Monetary Policy Committee Meeting" Comparison Analysis 1.1 First Paragraph: Monetary Policy - The first - quarter statement emphasizes that macro - policies are more proactive and effective this year, and monetary policy remains moderately loose, strengthening counter - cyclical and cross - cyclical adjustments. The reform effectiveness of the loan prime rate continues to be released, the role of the market - based deposit - rate adjustment mechanism is effectively played, the transmission efficiency of monetary policy is enhanced, and the social financing cost is at a historically low level. The foreign - exchange market supply and demand are basically balanced, the RMB exchange rate floats bidirectionally, and remains basically stable at a reasonable and balanced level. The financial market generally operates smoothly [12]. - The fourth - quarter statement states that macro - control efforts have been increased this year, and monetary policy is moderately loose, continuously exerting force and increasing force in a timely manner, strengthening counter - cyclical adjustments. It serves the high - quality development of the real economy and creates a suitable monetary and financial environment for the stable and sound economic development. Other contents are similar to the first - quarter statement [13]. - Huatai's analysis shows that in terms of the total amount, the first - quarter monetary policy operation has changed from "increasing intensity" to "more proactive and effective", indicating a relatively wait - and - see state in the short term. In terms of structure, "cross - cycle" adjustment is added in the first quarter, aiming to achieve "better" economic development. Despite the uncertainty of the global geopolitical situation, the domestic economic cycle is gradually recovering, and the macro - policy has shifted from "increasing force" to "support" [14]. 1.2 Second Paragraph: Situation Analysis - The first - quarter statement analyzes the domestic and international economic and financial situations. It believes that the impact of changes in the external environment has deepened, the world economic momentum is weak, geopolitical and trade conflicts occur frequently, the economic performance of major economies is differentiated, and there is uncertainty in inflation trends and monetary - policy adjustments. China's economy operates generally stably and makes progress while maintaining stability, but still faces problems and challenges such as strong supply and weak demand and external shocks. It is necessary to continue to implement a moderately loose monetary policy, strengthen counter - cyclical and cross - cyclical adjustments, better play the dual functions of the total amount and structure of monetary - policy tools, strengthen the coordination and cooperation of monetary and fiscal policies, and promote stable economic growth and reasonable price recovery [27]. - The fourth - quarter statement also analyzes the domestic and international economic and financial situations. It believes that the impact of changes in the external environment has deepened, the world economic growth momentum is insufficient, trade barriers have increased, the economic performance of major economies is differentiated, and there is uncertainty in inflation trends and monetary - policy adjustments. China's economy operates generally stably and makes progress while maintaining stability, but still faces problems and challenges such as prominent contradictions between strong supply and weak demand. Other contents are similar to the first - quarter statement [28]. - Huatai's analysis indicates that in terms of the external economic and financial situation, the description has changed from "insufficient growth momentum" to "weak momentum", and the external uncertainty has increased. In terms of the internal economic situation, although the contradiction between strong supply and weak demand still exists, it has weakened marginally. The first quarter deletes the description of "prominent contradiction" and adds the description of "external shock", indicating that the domestic macro - policy needs to respond to external uncertainties in the short term. For monetary policy, the descriptions of "strengthening counter - cyclical" and "cross - cyclical adjustment" remain unchanged, indicating a transformation from total - amount to structural policies and that incremental policies are still on standby [29]. 1.3 Third Paragraph: Policy Requirements - The first - quarter statement suggests giving play to the integrated effect of incremental and stock policies, comprehensively using various tools, strengthening monetary - policy regulation, and grasping the intensity, rhythm, and timing of policy implementation according to the domestic and international economic and financial situations and financial - market operation. It is necessary to maintain sufficient liquidity, match the growth of social financing scale and money supply with the expected goals of economic growth and general price level. Strengthen the guidance of the central bank's policy interest rate, improve the market - based interest - rate formation and transmission mechanism, play the role of the market - interest - rate pricing self - regulatory mechanism, and strengthen the implementation and supervision of interest - rate policies. Regulate the operation of the credit market, reduce intermediate financing costs, and promote the low - level operation of the comprehensive social financing cost. Observe and evaluate the bond - market operation from a macro - prudential perspective, and pay attention to changes in long - term yields. Smooth the monetary - policy transmission mechanism and improve the efficiency of capital use. Enhance the resilience of the foreign - exchange market, stabilize market expectations, and maintain the basic stability of the RMB exchange rate at a reasonable and balanced level [42]. - The fourth - quarter statement is similar to the first - quarter statement, but it does not mention "regulating the operation of the credit market and reducing intermediate financing costs" and emphasizes "preventing exchange - rate overshooting risks" [43]. - Huatai's analysis shows that the central bank's monetary policy remains in the "discretionary" stage started in the fourth quarter. The statement of "promoting the low - level operation of the comprehensive social financing cost" is postponed. As the inflation index begins to gradually recover upward, the actual financing cost is in the process of repair, and the urgency of actively reducing the financing cost through policies has decreased. The new statement of "regulating the operation of the credit market and reducing intermediate financing costs" is added. In 2026, the banking industry has been under high - pressure supervision, with a large number of regulatory penalties and high fines, especially in the credit business [44]. 1.4 Fourth Paragraph: Policy Reform - The first - quarter statement points out that it is necessary to guide large - scale banks to play the main role in financial services for the real economy, promote small and medium - sized banks to focus on their main responsibilities and businesses, and enhance the capital strength of banks. Make good use of various structural monetary - policy tools, optimize tool management, do a solid job in the "five major articles" of finance, and strengthen financial support for key areas such as expanding domestic demand, scientific and technological innovation, and small and medium - sized enterprises. Continuously do a good job in financial services to support the development and growth of the private economy. Maintain the stable operation of the financial market. Effectively promote the high - level two - way opening of finance and improve the economic and financial management ability and risk - prevention ability under open conditions [54]. - The fourth - quarter statement is similar to the first - quarter statement, but it adds "jointly maintaining the stable development of the financial market" and "using the swap facilities of securities, funds, and insurance companies and the relending for stock repurchase and increase, and exploring a normalized institutional arrangement" [55]. - Huatai's analysis shows that the support order for key areas remains unchanged. The policy support for investment will also be maintained in 2026 to improve the investment structure. The use scope of structural policy tools will be expanded in 2026. The policy's active structural support for foreign trade will decline. The deletion of some statements may mean that monetary policy will further enhance its support for the economic structure and the real economy. The focus of financial - stability policies has been further expanded [56]. 1.5 Fifth Paragraph: Policy Guidance - The first - quarter statement emphasizes guiding by Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era, fully implementing the spirit of the Fourth Plenary Session of the 20th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, the Central Economic Work Conference, and the National Two Sessions. According to the decisions and arrangements of the Party Central Committee and the State Council, firmly grasp the primary task of high - quality development, solidly promote Chinese - style modernization, fully and accurately implement the new development concept, and accelerate the construction of a new development pattern.

The macro - policy has shifted from "coordination and cooperation, maintaining policy continuity and stability, and enhancing flexibility and predictability" to "forward - looking, targeted, and coordinated".
