The total issuance scale of new ultra - long credit bonds this week was 40.19 billion, reaching the highest point this year, mainly affected by the large - scale issuance of ultra - long individual bonds by Everbright Group. Due to the overall pressure on the bond market, the market's sentiment towards primary - market allocation was cautious, and the coupon rates of new ultra - long credit bonds generally continued to rise. However, investors had a certain degree of recognition for the high - quality ultra - long new bonds of Everbright Group, as shown by the rebound in the subscription enthusiasm for new ultra - long industrial bonds in the latest week [3][21]. 3.

Medium - and short - duration credit bonds were more resilient, while long - duration varieties faced price pressure.

Institutions such as insurance and wealth management participated slightly during the adjustment, reflecting the allocation demand for high - coupon long - term bonds [43]. - From a more microscopic perspective, the spreads between active ultra - long credit bonds of each maturity and treasury bonds of similar maturities continued to widen this week. The spreads of varieties around 10 years have risen to over the 60th percentile since 2024. In the future, there are still liquidity flaws in ultra - long credit bonds.
