Report Industry Investment Rating - No specific industry investment rating is provided in the report. Core Viewpoints - Inflation drives the continuous rise in yields, but it should be based on the premise that real economic growth is not significantly affected. The domestic bond market is under pressure this week, and the reasons may be the unfulfilled market expectation of interest rate cuts and the inflation rebound indicated by price indicators. It is necessary to observe the feedback of real growth indicators on the price rebound [2]. - Three important Fed officials expressed a dovish attitude towards a December rate cut this week. The 10-year US Treasury yield is approaching the key level of 4.0% again. In the early stage of the Fed's rate cut cycle, this is an important threshold for the US Treasury yield. Although the medium - term outlook for the decline in US Treasury yields is positive, due to the uncertainty of US tariff policies, the 10 - year US Treasury yield may rebound above 4% even if it falls below this level in the near term [2]. - The consumer season in the US has started. If US residents' consumption remains strong, it may affect the decline in inflation in November and December [2]. Summary by Directory Inflation and Bond Market Pressure - **Domestic Bond Market Pressure**: The domestic bond market is under pressure this week. The 10 - year yield of China Treasury bonds exceeded 1.85% on Thursday for the first time since October this year but fell back on Friday. The market's unfulfilled expectation of interest rate cuts and the inflation rebound indicated by price indicators may be the reasons. Widespread policy rate cuts are not an urgently needed tool at present, and the continuous rise in yields driven by inflation should be based on the premise that real economic growth is not significantly affected [2]. - **US Treasury at a Key Point**: Three Fed officials expressed a dovish attitude towards a December rate cut. The 10 - year US Treasury yield is approaching 4.0% again. In the 2007 rate cut cycle, the 10 - year US Treasury yield only remained stably below 4% after the federal funds rate dropped to a very low level. The US Treasury still faces the risk of fiscal imbalance, and changes in US tariff policies may impact the US fiscal balance in the short term. The consumer season in the US has started, and strong consumer demand may affect the decline in inflation in November and December. In the medium term, the outlook for the decline in US Treasury yields is positive, but there is a risk of rebound [2]. - **Production Material Price Index Rebound**: This week, the average wholesale price of pork decreased by 0.26% week - on - week and 23.72% year - on - year; the average wholesale price of 28 key monitored vegetables increased by 1.23% week - on - week and 15.88% year - on - year.

Group 1: Asset Overview - The Federal Reserve's interest rate cut expectations have reversed, leading to volatile movements in gold and silver prices during the week of November 10-14, with the Nasdaq experiencing significant sell-offs [1] - The Brazilian IBOVESPA index has seen a monthly increase of 10% [1] Group 2: Investment Highlights - As of the week ending November 14, commodities have outperformed equities and bonds, with COMEX silver and Shanghai gold leading in gains. Oil prices have also risen, while global stock market performance has shown significant divergence [6][19] - The correlation between A-shares and Hong Kong, US, and Indian stocks has marginally decreased, indicating a weakening relationship [6][7] - The risk premium of A-shares relative to 10-year government bonds has increased, while the risk premium of US stocks relative to 10-year US Treasuries has decreased [9][12] Group 3: Equity Market Performance - Hong Kong and Brazilian stocks continue to rise, with the IBOVESPA up 10% over the past month. The global stock market overall increased by 0.4% as of November 14, with developed markets showing slight rebounds [19][24] - In emerging markets, A-share indices generally declined, with the ChiNext 50 and the ChiNext index experiencing the most significant pullbacks of -3.8% and -3.0%, respectively [19][24] Group 4: Bond Market Analysis - The Chinese bond market is characterized by a "bull steep" yield curve, with the 10Y-2Y yield spread widening. The 10-year yield remains stable at 1.81% [37][39] - In contrast, the US bond market exhibits a "bear flat" yield curve, with the probability of a December rate cut by the Federal Reserve dropping to 44.4% from 66.9% [37][39] Group 5: Commodity and Currency Trends - Silver and copper have led commodity gains, with the CRB commodity index rising by 0.5%.

Group 1 - The essence of bond duration rotation is the dynamic adjustment strategy based on interest rate expectations, where long bonds act as an "offensive spear" during declining interest rates and short bonds serve as a "defensive shield" during rising interest rate risks [1][15]. - The bond market is a cornerstone of the modern financial system, with its depth and breadth forming the basis for the stable operation of financial markets [1][14]. - The report emphasizes the importance of duration as a core indicator for measuring bond price sensitivity to interest rates, which is crucial for managing interest rate risk [14]. Group 2 - The Nelson-Siegel model is utilized to fit different maturities of interest rates, allowing for the construction of a yield curve based on three factors: level, slope, and curvature [2][32]. - The model's core idea is to predict future changes in the yield curve by forecasting the values of these three factors, which can then be used to determine the optimal duration for bond allocation [2][51]. - The report highlights that the average yield curve is monotonically increasing over the historical period analyzed, indicating a general upward trend in interest rates as maturity increases [23][24]. Group 3 - The report presents a significant improvement in the predictive power of the model for the level factor by incorporating external variables, which enhances the direction prediction success rate [3][56]. - The introduction of slope and curvature factors further improves the model's performance, especially during periods of yield curve inversion [3][4]. - Backtesting results show that the duration rotation strategy achieved an absolute return of 110.37% from June 1, 2009, to October 31, 2025, with an annualized return of 4.63%, outperforming the benchmark [4][18]. Group 4 - The latest signal from the duration rotation strategy indicates a recommendation to allocate to long-duration interest rate bonds as of October 31, 2025 [5]. - The strategy's value lies in enhancing returns through duration mismatching, hedging risks with short bonds, and optimizing the portfolio by dynamically adjusting duration exposure [18][19]. - The report provides a comprehensive framework for the duration rotation strategy, emphasizing the need for precise interest rate predictions to maximize capital gains [19][20].
