1. Report Industry Investment Rating - The document does not mention the industry investment rating [1] 2. Core Viewpoints - Inflation expectations are rising, and long - term interest rates are increasing. The bond market is facing challenges with unclear main positive factors and many negative side factors. The stability of the capital side is crucial for the bond market trend. It is advisable to wait for the long - term interest rates to rise and the negative factors to be dulled before making allocations. Currently, 3 - year treasury bonds and government - backed financial bonds, 1 - year policy - bank bonds, and 1 - year certificates of deposit can be considered as defensive options [1][2][3] 3. Summary by Directory 3.1 Inflation Expectations Rise, and Long - Term Interest Rates Increase - From March 9 - 13, inflation concerns affected bond market pricing. Long - term bond yields generally rose (e.g., 10 - year treasury bond active bond yield rose 3.2bp to 1.82%), while short - term yields showed mixed trends (1 - year treasury bond active bond yield fell 1.0bp to 1.26%). The continuous blockade of the Strait of Hormuz led to a sharp increase in oil prices, and inflation data exceeded expectations, causing concentrated release of bearish sentiment in the domestic bond market [8][10][11] - The central bank's continuous net withdrawal of funds led to a decline in the reverse repurchase balance, but the capital side remained in a self - balancing state.

The price increases of oil, shipping, chemical products, and agricultural products have made the market always concerned about inflation shocks, which are difficult to disprove in the short term [21][23] - The instability of institutional behavior has increased: Institutions' tolerance for short - term losses has decreased significantly. Once potential risks appear, trading desks such as funds and securities firms will reduce their positions consistently, which may amplify interest rate fluctuations [26] 3.3 As the Quarter - End Approaches, the Scale of Wealth Management Products Declines 3.3.1 Weekly Scale: A Month - on - Month Decrease of 44.5 billion yuan - In the first week of March, the scale of wealth management products rebounded, but the increase was weaker than the historical average.
