Group 1 - The report indicates that the central bank's operations have been relatively proactive, leading to fluctuations in the bond market, with the Shanghai Composite Index rising above 3800 points, marking a new high. This has resulted in a noticeable stock-bond effect, causing the bond market to weaken and fund net values to decline, triggering redemption indicators [1][10]. - Credit bond yields have generally risen, with most credit spreads widening. Specifically, the yields on 1-year short-term bonds, 4-5 year AA-rated industrial bonds, and 15-year medium-term notes have passively narrowed, while 9-10 year municipal bonds and 3-4 year insurance subordinated bonds have shown relatively weak performance [1][10].
