Macro Strategy - The report highlights that since the implementation of tariffs in February, US core inflation has consistently underperformed expectations for five consecutive months. This is attributed to factors such as pre-positioning of imports and inventory cycles by US traders, increased imports from Mexico contributing to deflation, and the relatively low weight of tariff-sensitive core goods in the CPI. Additionally, tariffs have negatively impacted the service sector and overall US economic demand [1][10]. Fixed Income - The issuance of the first batch of Sci-Tech Bond ETFs is expected to enhance the demand for Sci-Tech bonds, as these ETFs offer low fees, high transparency, and efficient trading mechanisms.

If the growth rate is rapid, the underlying bonds may experience a favorable market trend, outperforming individual bonds of similar credit quality [2][11][14]. - The report indicates that the introduction of Sci-Tech Bond ETFs will improve market liquidity for these bonds, allowing investors to participate more easily and enhancing market activity. This is expected to compress liquidity premiums and improve the performance of Sci-Tech bond varieties [2][11][14].
