Report Summary 1. Report Industry Investment Rating The document does not mention the industry investment rating. 2. Core Viewpoints - On July 8, 2025, the PBOC will improve the Bond Connect "Southbound Link" mechanism and expand the scope of domestic investors to include four types of non - banking institutions: securities firms, funds, insurance companies, and wealth management institutions [3][4]. - Attention should be paid to the choice of the Southbound Link's custody model, offshore RMB liquidity, and the progress of domestic bond replacement of overseas bonds. After the Southbound Link expansion, the yields of different types of and maturities of Chinese overseas bonds have shown differentiation, and the subsequent implementation of the expansion policy may support further decline in yields [3]. 3. Summary by Relevant Catalogs 3.1 Southbound Link Custody Model - Domestic investors can choose between the multi - level direct connection custody model (through domestic bond registration and settlement institutions) and the global custody model (through domestic custody and clearing banks) to custody bond assets. The global custody model has a wider range of investable bonds [5][6]. - As of August 21, 2025, the RMB - denominated bonds held in CMU accounted for 75% of the total outstanding balance of Chinese overseas bonds, but the proportion of bonds denominated in other currencies held in CMU was generally low. The multi - level direct connection custody model has relatively limited bond selection [8]. 3.2 Offshore RMB Liquidity - Currently, the offshore RMB funding situation is generally loose, and the risk of liquidity tightening is relatively controllable. As of August 21, the 3M CNH HIBOR was at a historical low, and the 1Y CNH - CNY swap spread has returned to near zero [3][10]. - Attention should be paid to the issuance rhythm of offshore RMB central bank bills in the second half of 2025. If the issuance accelerates and tightens offshore RMB liquidity, it may hinder the compression of spreads of offshore RMB bonds [3][13]. 3.3 Progress of Domestic Bond Replacement of Overseas Bonds - Since the issuance of Document No. 134, there have been cases of domestic bond replacement of overseas bonds, but there are still barriers. The number of replacement cases is limited, and the issuers who can achieve replacement mostly meet the requirements for new domestic bonds. Whether this can further reduce the credit risk of local government financing vehicle (LGFV) overseas bonds needs further observation of regulatory attitude changes [3][14][17]. 3.4 Recent Performance of Overseas Bonds - As of August 21, 2025, the static coupon of Chinese US - dollar bonds was generally higher than that of offshore RMB bonds, and the yield of Chinese US - dollar bonds declined more significantly than on July 8, showing stronger performance. However, investment in Chinese US - dollar bonds needs to consider factors such as greater valuation fluctuations, larger exchange - rate risk exposure, and hedging costs [3][27]. - For offshore RMB bonds, the yields of sovereign bonds and policy - financial bonds of different maturities have mostly been adjusted, while the yields of industrial bonds and LGFV bonds have mostly declined to varying degrees. The implementation of the Southbound Link expansion policy may support further decline in the yields of Chinese overseas bonds [27].

Report Summary 1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant information provided. 2. Core Views of the Report - **Hua'an's View**: The adjustment space of the bond market is limited, and attention should be paid to the opportunities of individual bond spread mining. Although the bond market has been under pressure recently due to the strong performance of the equity market, it is expected to return to fundamental pricing in the medium and long term. After the Jackson Hole Annual Meeting released a dovish signal last Friday, it is predicted that there is no basis for a significant tightening of the capital market after the tax period. The central bank will cooperate with loose monetary policies in terms of supply. Currently, institutional behavior signals still indicate a long - position, the redemption/selling pressure of funds is controllable, and large banks' continuous bond - buying provides short - term certainty. As previously mentioned in the weekly report, the spread between 250210 and 250215 may widen [2]. - **Seller's View**: Bond market sentiment has turned negative for the second time this year, with nearly 30% of fixed - income sellers holding a bearish view. As of Monday this week, nearly 30% of fixed - income sellers are bearish on the bond market, 50% hold a neutral attitude, and the sentiment has declined compared to last week. There are 7 bullish, 19 neutral, and 8 bearish institutions. Most institutions maintain a cautious/volatile market judgment on the bond market [3]. - **Buyer's View**: Over 80% of buyers hold a neutral view. The overall view of fixed - income buyers is neutral, and the sentiment index has risen. Currently, among the market's buyer views, 3 are bullish, 25 are neutral, and 1 is bearish [3]. 3. Summary by Relevant Catalogs 3.1 Seller and Buyer Markets - **Seller Market Sentiment Index and Interest - rate Bonds**: The sentiment index has declined. The weighted index this week is - 0.02, and the unweighted index is - 0.03, down 0.29 from last week. Currently, institutions generally hold a neutral - bearish view, with 23% bullish, 50% neutral, and 27% bearish [12]. - **Buyer Market Sentiment Index and Interest - rate Bonds**: The sentiment index has risen. The weighted sentiment index this week is 0.05, and the unweighted index is 0.07, up 0.004 from last week. Currently, institutions generally hold a neutral - bullish view, with 10% bullish, 86% neutral, and 3% bearish [13]. - **Credit Bonds**: The main factors are the stock - bond seesaw and the Fed's dovish signal. In the short term, the strong stock market may continue to suppress the bond market, and the Fed's dovish signal indicates that overseas interest - rate cuts will benefit China's bond market [18]. - **Convertible Bonds**: Institutions generally hold a neutral - bullish view this week. 92% of institutions are bullish, believing that the equity market has a strong long - term upward trend, convertible bonds still face supply - demand mismatch, and the asset shortage supports high valuations. 8% of institutions are neutral, warning of the risks of valuation correction and forced redemptions [19]. 3.2 Treasury Bond Futures Tracking - **Futures Trading**: Prices have decreased across the board, and trading volumes have increased across the board. As of August 22, the prices of TS/TF/T/TL contracts were 102.32 yuan, 105.37 yuan, 107.66 yuan, and 115.98 yuan respectively, down 0.03 yuan, 0.29 yuan, 0.64 yuan, and 1.50 yuan from last Friday. The trading volumes of TS/TF/T/TL contracts in the 5 - day moving average (5MA) perspective were 1280 billion yuan, 1139 billion yuan, 1586 billion yuan, and 2663 billion yuan respectively, up 362.98 billion yuan, 337.95 billion yuan, 353.55 billion yuan, and 608.66 billion yuan from last Friday [24]. - **Spot Bond Trading**: The turnover rates of 30 - year treasury bonds, interest - rate bonds, and 10 - year China Development Bank bonds have all declined. On August 22, the turnover rate of 30 - year treasury bonds was 4.42%, down 0.73 percentage points from last week and 1.27 percentage points from Monday. The weekly average turnover rate was 4.82%. The weekly average turnover rate of interest - rate bonds was 0.88%, down 0.07 percentage points from last week and 0.15 percentage points from Monday. The turnover rate of 10 - year China Development Bank bonds was 4.09%, down 2.11 percentage points from last week and 1.47 percentage points from Monday [30]. - **Basis Trading**: The basis and net basis have generally widened. Except for the narrowing of the basis of the TS main contract, the basis of other main contracts has widened. As of August 22, the basis (CTD) of TS/TF/T/TL main contracts was 0.03 yuan, 0.07 yuan, 0.57 yuan, and 0.95 yuan respectively, with changes of - 0.01 yuan, + 0.07 yuan, + 0.60 yuan, and + 1.06 yuan from last Friday. The net basis of TS/TF/T/TL main contracts was 0.02 yuan, 0.08 yuan, 0.21 yuan, and 0.38 yuan respectively, with changes of - 0.01 yuan, + 0.10 yuan, + 0.26 yuan, and + 0.65 yuan from last Friday.

As of August 22, the near - month to far - month spreads of TS/TF/T/TL contracts were 0.00 yuan, 0.10 yuan, 0.25 yuan, and 0.54 yuan respectively, with changes of + 0.04 yuan, + 0.09 yuan, + 0.15 yuan, and + 0.09 yuan from last Friday. Except for the narrowing of the spread of the 3*T - TL futures contract, the spreads of other main futures contracts have widened. As of August 22, 2*TS - TF, 2*TF - T, 4*TS - T, and 3*T - TL were 99.27 yuan, 103.09 yuan, 301.62 yuan, and 207.07 yuan respectively, with changes of + 0.25 yuan, + 0.06 yuan, + 0.56 yuan, and - 0.25 yuan from last Friday [48][49].

Group 1 - The core phenomenon of simultaneous rise in stocks and bonds is a rare occurrence, typically indicating a "seesaw" effect between these asset classes, but current liquidity easing signals have led to this unusual market behavior [2][3] - The Federal Reserve's policy shift, particularly the dovish signals from Chairman Powell regarding potential interest rate cuts, has significantly influenced global market liquidity expectations, leading to increased capital flows into emerging markets [2][3] - Historical precedents show that abundant liquidity is a crucial prerequisite for simultaneous gains in both stocks and bonds, as seen during the period from January 2019 to March 2020 in China [3][4] Group 2 - Today's market performance indicates a preference for growth sectors such as computer and communication industries, reflecting a focus on policy-supported areas and technological growth [4] - The bond market benefits from expectations of declining interest rates, attracting funds in a liquidity-rich environment, similar to the stock and bond bull market from September 2014 to June 2015 [4][5] - The simultaneous rise in stocks and bonds is a collective interpretation of the policy environment, suggesting a re-evaluation of emerging market assets in light of global capital flow changes [4][5] Group 3 - Overall, the simultaneous rise in stocks and bonds is a direct response to global liquidity easing expectations, driven by external policy signals and internal funding allocation needs [5] - Understanding the liquidity-driven market characteristics is more crucial for investors than focusing on individual indicators, as liquidity often dictates asset price movements [5]

Group 1 - The bond market and stock market are gradually decoupling, with the bond market relying on bank proprietary trading and insurance capital this year [1] - In the first seven months, the net issuance scale of the bond market reached 14.3 trillion, with bank proprietary bond investments increasing by 9.6 trillion and insurance capital by 2 trillion [1] - Unlike the previous two years, the scale of bond funds has not increased, and the bond holdings of brokerage proprietary trading and bond funds may not have grown [1] Group 2 - The change in insurance capital's stock holdings is partly due to stock price fluctuations and partly due to new investments [1] - Due to the maturity of non-standard assets and a significant drop in deposit interest rates, the proportion of insurance capital in bond investments has notably increased [1] - The growth trend of bank deposits aligns with the growth of social financing, indicating that asset allocation generates liabilities [1] Group 3 - The central bank's easing measures have made adjusted government bonds have certain allocation value, and banks may further increase bond allocations due to weak credit demand [1] - Over the past month, the combined reduction in the holdings of 7Y and above interest rate bonds by brokerage proprietary trading and bond funds exceeded 500 billion, with over 200 billion in long-term interest rate bonds [1] - As non-bank trading positions shift long-term interest rate bond holdings to insurance capital and other allocation positions, coupled with a significant reduction in supply in Q4, the bond market is expected to decouple from the stock market [1] Group 4 - The presence of speculation makes both stocks and bonds susceptible to positive and negative feedback [1] - A stock bull market driven by funds does not necessarily lead to a bond bear market, and bond market pricing will eventually return to fundamental financial conditions [1] - In a low-interest-rate environment, pure bond investment is challenging, and a trend in the bond market is not expected in 2025, necessitating wave-based operations [1] Group 5 - The company’s bond ETF (511030) has shown stable and controllable pullbacks, ranking first among comparable peers [2]

Group 1 - The report suggests that after a significant adjustment in the short credit market, there is an increased potential for gains, recommending a focus on mid to short-term credit investments [4][7][8] - The credit bond market has experienced a comprehensive valuation adjustment, with notable declines particularly in the short-end credits, leading to a mixed market sentiment [4][7][17] - The strategy continues to emphasize riding the steep parts of the yield curve, particularly in the 2Y to 3Y range, as these segments are seen as having the strongest certainty and stability [8][9][20] Group 2 - The weekly review indicates that the issuance of credit bonds remained stable, with a slight increase in maturity amounts, resulting in a deeper negative net financing [14][15] - The average issuance costs for new bonds across various ratings have significantly increased, with AAA and AA+ rated bonds seeing rises of 10bp and 13bp respectively [14][15] - The liquidity in the secondary market for credit bonds has further declined, with trading volumes and turnover rates decreasing [17][24] Group 3 - The report highlights that credit spreads across various grades and maturities have widened, indicating a trend of adjustment and potential risk in the market [20][22][24] - The credit spreads for local government bonds have also shown a widening trend, with an average increase of around 3bp across provinces [22][24] - The real estate sector has experienced the most significant widening in credit spreads, with some companies seeing increases of up to 6bp [24]

Group 1 - The report indicates that credit bond yields have adjusted significantly, with the adjustment magnitude exceeding that of interest rate bonds, leading to a widening of credit spreads. Notably, long-term credit bonds experienced a marked decline, with some mid-to-high grade 7-10 year bonds dropping over 10 basis points, while 3-5 year credit bonds also saw substantial declines [1][9]. - Recent buying behavior shows that funds, representing trading positions, have been net sellers, particularly of certain interest rate products, while wealth management and insurance sectors continue to buy on dips, focusing mainly on short-term bonds with maturities of three years or less [2][15]. - The static "downside protection" for various credit products has been calculated, showing that short-term bonds within one year have robust protection, generally exceeding 50 basis points. The downside protection for 2-3 year credit products has improved by 2-5 basis points since July 18, now ranging from 20-40 basis points [3][31]. Group 2 - As of August 22, 2025, certain AA and AA(2) credit bonds with maturities of two years or less have seen yields drop to over 1.9%, indicating a value in short-term coupons that also possess defensive attributes amid market volatility. The report suggests that the bond market may still be influenced by equity market fluctuations, necessitating careful liquidity management [4][34]. - The report highlights that the yield curve for 3-4 year perpetual bonds has become more attractive, with current valuations exceeding those of similarly rated short-term and urban investment bonds. It anticipates that the 1.8% resistance level in the bond market may be difficult to breach, suggesting higher trading value once interest rates stabilize [4][34].

Core Viewpoint - The bond market is experiencing significant pressure due to rising long-term yields and the failure of traditional interest rate pricing frameworks, leading to a state where stock market performance heavily influences bond pricing [1][14][13]. Group 1: Market Dynamics - Since mid-July, the bond market has faced capital losses due to a substantial rise in long-term yields, with 10-year and 30-year government bond yields increasing by 12 basis points and 25 basis points respectively from July 15 to August 22 [13][1]. - The stock market's extreme risk-reward ratio has maintained a rolling 3-month Calmar ratio above 4.0 since July, a level not seen during the previous year's "924" rally, putting additional pressure on the bond market [14][1]. - The bond market is currently in a pricing state dominated by risk appetite, leading to a "look at stocks, act on bonds" approach [1][14]. Group 2: Future Market Logic - Two potential scenarios for the stock market's future are identified: a rapid rise supported by the "93 consensus" or a period of volatility as investors take profits ahead of the September 3 military parade [17][2]. - If the rapid rise scenario occurs, the bond market may face further declines, with long-term rates potentially approaching March highs. Conversely, if the volatility scenario plays out, the bond market could see a recovery as yields decline [17][2]. Group 3: Institutional Behavior and Fund Flows - Institutional behavior indicates a potential for a more optimistic bond market outlook, with reduced net selling of bonds by funds from 358.7 billion yuan in late July to 202.8 billion yuan in mid-August [18][3]. - The bond market is seeing increased buying interest from institutions, including banks and brokerages, as they position for a potential market reversal [18][3]. Group 4: Monetary Policy and Liquidity - The Federal Reserve's dovish signals from the Jackson Hole meeting have shifted market expectations towards potential interest rate cuts, easing global monetary tightening pressures and opening up domestic monetary policy space for rate cuts and liquidity injections [22][3][23]. - The People's Bank of China has been active in maintaining liquidity through reverse repos and MLF operations, indicating a supportive stance for the bond market [4][23]. Group 5: Bond Market Strategy - Current strategies suggest a focus on a "barbell" approach in bond investments, with attention to long-term government bonds and a gradual rebuilding of duration positions as monetary policy space opens up [26][3]. - The average duration of bond funds has been adjusted downwards, indicating a shift in strategy as institutions respond to market conditions [50][3].
