Group 1 - The issuance of secondary capital bonds by commercial banks has significantly increased, with a total of 554.3 billion yuan issued as of September 7, representing a 98.8% increase compared to the same period last year [1][2] - Major banks like Agricultural Bank, Construction Bank, and Industrial and Commercial Bank have collectively issued 250 billion yuan in secondary capital bonds this year, indicating that large commercial banks remain the primary issuers [2][3] - Smaller banks are increasingly participating in bond issuance to supplement their capital, with many issuing bonds in smaller amounts [2][3] Group 2 - The financing channels for small and medium-sized banks have expanded, with the introduction of special bonds as a new tool for capital supplementation, supported by government policies [3][4] - A notable example includes the issuance of 30 billion yuan in special bonds by Gansu Province to support 11 small financial institutions, marking an innovative approach to capital injection [3][4] - In the first half of the year, four provinces have secured a total of 103 billion yuan in special bond quotas for small banks, with plans to reach a total of 320 billion yuan by the end of the year [3][4] Group 3 - The asset quality of small and medium-sized banks has remained stable despite economic pressures, with a slight decrease in non-performing loan ratios [5] - However, there are ongoing concerns regarding the future asset quality of these banks, with estimates suggesting a net issuance demand of approximately 2.9 trillion yuan for capital tools from 2022 to 2024 [6] - Recommendations have been made to further expand the capital-raising channels for small banks, particularly through the issuance of secondary capital bonds [6]

Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the content Core Viewpoints of the Report - The bond market in 2025 has entered a state of "low interest rates + narrow spreads + high volatility," and in the second half of the year, there may be two characteristics: the return of the pricing anchor and a favorable period for action from June to August [4]. - External demand expectations are volatile, but the bond market mainly prices domestic demand. The core contradiction in the domestic economy lies in shrinking demand and weakening expectations, with insufficient endogenous economic momentum [4][138]. - The focus of monetary policy in 2025 is different from that in 2023 - 2024, emphasizing seizing opportunities, considering both domestic and external factors, and effectively stabilizing asset prices [5]. - The pricing anchor has returned, and the policy rate determines funds, which in turn price bonds. June - August is a good window for long - position operations in the bond market [7]. Summary by Relevant Catalogs 1. Analysis of the Bond Market Trend from January to Date and Its Macroeconomic Logic - **Market Trends in Different Periods**: In Q1 2025, tight funds and significant bank liability pressure led to a bond market correction; in Q2, repeated tariff expectations and reserve requirement ratio and interest rate cuts caused yields to decline rapidly to a low level and then fluctuate [44]. - **New Features of the Bond Market in 2025**: The central bank's policy rate has become the floor of the money market; short - term bonds perform weakly and are more affected by funds, while long - term bonds have larger fluctuations and are difficult to grasp; the overall fundamentals are stable, but tariff pulses have a significant impact, and the stock and bond markets are greatly influenced by short - term risk preferences [36][43][44]. - **Credit Spreads and Strategies**: The credit spreads of medium - term notes and commercial bank secondary capital bonds have compressed. For credit spreads to return to the low point in August 2024, liquidity easing expectations need to be fulfilled, and liability expansion is required [23][44]. - **Performance of Duration Strategies**: Duration strategies in 2025 have not achieved stable returns, with inconsistent performance in different months [24][26]. - **Asset Returns Reflecting Expectations**: In 2025, the bond market rose while the stock market fell, and the difficulty of bond market timing has increased. Economic pessimistic expectations have been somewhat revised [27][29][32] 2. Changes in External and Domestic Demand and the Core Contradictions in the Bond Market - **External Demand and the "Triffin Dilemma"**: The core of the "Triffin Dilemma" is the long - term coexistence of the global nature of the US dollar's credit and trade deficits. The US faces dual deficits (trade deficit + fiscal deficit), which are more important than tariffs. The US dollar's high valuation affects its export competitiveness, and the demand for US Treasuries is weak, while the supply pressure of refinancing at maturity persists [55][61][138]. - **The "Sea Lake Manor Agreement"**: It aims to restructure global trade through tariffs, weaken the value of the US dollar, and reduce the debt scale and borrowing costs in the US Treasury market. Specific measures may include replacing foreign - held US Treasuries with ultra - long - term zero - coupon bonds and asking countries to cooperate in lowering the US dollar exchange rate [66]. - **US Economic Situation**: US consumer spending has weakened, corporate inventories have increased, and inflation expectations remain high. Tariff impacts may gradually appear in the second and third quarters of 2025, and China's external demand may further decline [67][68][69]. - **Exchange Rate and Domestic Policy**: The exchange rate factor no longer poses a rigid constraint on domestic monetary easing. Short - term "rush to export" supports external demand, but it is likely to decline in the medium term, and the bond market mainly prices domestic demand [77][86][138]. - **Domestic Economic Core Contradictions**: The core contradictions in the domestic economy are shrinking demand and weakening expectations, with insufficient endogenous economic momentum. Demand contraction is characterized by low prices and weak consumption willingness. Expectations are weakening for both residents and enterprises [88][92][138]. - **New and Old Economic Momentum Switching**: The domestic economy is undergoing a switch between new and old economic momentum. The influence of old momentum on the economy is weakening, while the influence of new momentum is accelerating but still has a low proportion [109][112][115]. - **Domestic Policy and Economic Rebound**: Fiscal policy is playing an increasingly active role, and the coordination between monetary and fiscal policies has entered a new stage. However, local governments are still mainly focused on debt resolution. The pressure of asset shortage has been alleviated but not completely eliminated [116][123][138] 3. Central Bank Liquidity: Loose Trading vs. Macro - Prudential Management - **Differences in Monetary Policy Focus**: In 2023, the focus was on reserve requirement ratio and interest rate cuts to support post - pandemic economic recovery; in 2024, it was to promote the transformation of the monetary policy regulatory framework and remove obstacles to interest rate decline; in 2025, it emphasizes seizing opportunities, considering both domestic and external factors, and stabilizing asset prices [5][141][146]. - **Concerns about Liquidity in the Second Half of the Year** - **Reducing Liability Costs**: Deposit transfer disturbances have attenuated; the reset of time deposits may relieve bank liability costs starting from September 2025; if the Q2 research value of the insurance预定 rate remains below 2.25%, the insurance预定 rate may be lowered in Q3 [164][167][175]. - **Reserve Requirement Ratio and Interest Rate Cuts**: There may be a 10 - 20bps interest rate cut in the second half of the year, mainly triggered by the need to support the real estate market. A 50bps reserve requirement ratio cut may be necessary in the second half of the year if the economic data in Q3 are still volatile [180][184]. - **Central Bank Bond Purchases**: The resumption of central bank bond purchases may be approaching, and the purchase intensity may be significant during the second wave of net supply peaks (likely from August to September) [188]. - **Funds Rate Pricing**: The policy rate may become the implicit lower limit of the funds rate [189]. - **Relationship between Loose Trading and Macro - Prudential Management**: In Q1 2025, macro - prudential management played a role in releasing bond market risks, while in Q2, loose trading took precedence. Attention should be paid to whether macro - prudential management will regain the upper hand after the end of loose trading around Q4 [6]. - **Future Monetary Policy Reform Measures**: Consider narrowing the interest rate corridor and reforming the reserve requirement system [6] 4. Return of the Pricing Anchor and the Favorable Period for Action - **Return of the Pricing Anchor**: Open Market Operations (OMO) has become the implicit lower limit of funds, and certificates of deposit (CDs) have become the implicit lower limit of 10 - year Treasury bonds. The conditions for the decline of CDs are likely to be met in Q3 2025 [7]. - **Favorable Period for Action**: June - August is a good window for long - position operations in the bond market. The bond market strategy should focus on liquidity - favorable areas and band - trading opportunities. The yield - to - maturity (YTM) of 10 - year Treasury bonds is expected to be in the range of 1.5% - 1.7% in the next quarter and 1.4% - 1.8% in the next half - year [7]. - **Asset Allocation in the Second Half of the Year**: Convertible bonds > medium - and short - term credit risk - taking > interest rate duration extension in the fixed - income asset allocation in the second half of the year [7]

1. Report Industry Investment Rating The provided content does not mention the report industry investment rating. 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - For investment - grade bonds, understand various spreads in terms of liquidity premium, and in a bond bull market, seize the opportunity to intervene when negative events cause the variety premium to rise. For high - yield bonds, the proportion of credit risk premium factors increases, and low - quality varieties should focus on the macro - credit environment and local credit environment. - When comparing AAA - and AA+ rated commercial bank secondary capital bonds and perpetual bonds, it is recommended to give priority to perpetual bonds due to their higher yields and better liquidity. For AA - rated bonds, when the spread between the two is high, consider intervening in perpetual bonds [103][105]. 3.

1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - Since 2021, the bond market yield has entered a downward cycle, influenced by the shift of monetary credit from supply - constraint to demand - constraint, the change of economic endogenous momentum, and insufficient effective demand [4][134][137] - The U.S. may shift from "loose fiscal + tight monetary" to "tight fiscal + tight monetary" during the debt - reduction process, and the Fed's rate - cut may require a significant weakening of the labor market [2][97] - China's current economic situation shows weak domestic demand and declining external demand. Policy elasticity may lie in the consumption sector, and monetary policy will gradually ease to cooperate with fiscal policy [3][131] - In Q2 2025, "macro - prudential" supervision may give way to loose trading, and the bond market curve may change from flat to bull - steep [4] 3. Summary According to the Table of Contents 3.1 1月至今债市走势分析及其宏观逻辑 - **Monthly Trends** - In January 2025, to stabilize the exchange rate and the central bank suspended buying treasury bonds, resulting in tight funds, short - term bond corrections, and long - term bond fluctuations [1][51] - In February, tight funds spread to banks, weakening easing expectations, and both short - and long - term bonds accelerated their corrections [2][51] - In March, the funds returned to equilibrium. In the first half of the month, the bond market self - adjusted due to the revision of easing expectations, and in the second half, long - term bonds gradually recovered [51] - In April, due to increased external uncertainties, long - term bonds fell to a low level and then fluctuated narrowly [2] - **Interest Rate Curve** - From January to April 2025, the interest rate curve changed from "bear - flat" to "bear - steep" and then to "bull - flat." The flat curve reflected pessimistic expectations of liquidity and fundamentals, which cannot coexist for a long time [22] - **Credit Spreads** - In 2025, the credit spread of medium - term notes showed an obvious compression trend, while that of commercial bank secondary capital bonds fluctuated [27] - **Duration Strategy** - In February - March 2025, the duration strategy underperformed, but in April, the long - duration strategy became dominant again [31] - **Market Logic** - Fundamentally, the economy was booming in Q1 2025, but external changes disturbed expectations. In terms of funds, from January to February, tight funds led to bond market corrections; from March to April, the central bank's attitude became more favorable, and the bond market strengthened. Institutionally, in January - February, institutions reduced duration and leverage; in March - April, the long - duration strategy was preferred, and institutions bet on long - term bond capital gains [51] 3.2 "对等关税"背后的"特里芬难题"与潜在冲击 - **Triffin Dilemma** - The Triffin Dilemma refers to the coexistence of the global credit of the US dollar and long - term trade deficits. The long - term trade deficit may lead to the hollowing - out of the manufacturing industry and debt inflation in the US [54][56] - **First Impact of the Triffin Dilemma** - The Bretton Woods system basically collapsed in the 1970s due to the continuous expansion of US demand and the rapid shrinkage of US gold reserves [61] - **Consequences of the Triffin Dilemma** - The global credit of the US dollar may lead to a high - valued dollar, which is negative for US manufacturing exports. The critical point of the Triffin Dilemma is the continuous expansion of the deficit, which may trigger credit risks for reserve assets [65][70] - **"海湖庄园协议"** - The core of the "Mar - a - Lago Agreement" is to reduce debt and revitalize the industrial system through measures such as replacing foreign - held US bonds with ultra - long - term zero - coupon bonds and asking countries to cooperate in depressing the dollar exchange rate [71][75] - **US Fiscal - Monetary Policy Shift** - The US may shift from "loose fiscal + loose monetary" to "tight fiscal + loose monetary" to break the negative feedback loop of "fiscal expansion - increased interest payments - passive fiscal expansion" [79][84] - **US Economic Situation** - Currently, a US recession is not the baseline scenario. The US economy has not significantly slowed down, and the employment market remains resilient. However, if labor - market "hard data" weakens significantly, recession trading may resume [90][93] - **Potential Impact of "Reciprocal Tariffs"** - "Reciprocal tariffs" may lead to a decline in global trade volume and a decrease in the potential economic growth rate [94][96] 3.3 Policy Hedging and Domestic Demand Stimulation: Focus on One's Own Affairs - **Political Bureau Meeting** - The April 2025 Political Bureau Meeting mainly implemented established policies, with highlights possibly in structural monetary policy tools [100] - **Three - Horse Carriage** - **Investment**: Weak investment is due to the downward real - estate cycle, limited infrastructure investment space under local debt regulations, and insufficient effective demand restricting manufacturing expansion [3][110] - **Export**: The export structure is being improved. Non - US economies contribute significantly to export growth but with high volatility, and high - tech products are not the main support for exports [3][116] - **Consumption**: Constrained by weak income expectations and falling housing prices, consumption has room for improvement compared to developed economies, and top - level meetings have increased their emphasis on it [3][119][121] - **Monetary Policy** - With the issuance of special treasury bonds, monetary policy is gradually easing to cooperate with fiscal policy. In May, as a credit - off month, weak credit demand may lead to spontaneous easing [122][130] 3.4 Nested in the Macro - Prudential Interest Rate Downward Cycle - **Macro - background of the Interest Rate Downward Cycle** - Since 2021, the bond market yield has been in a downward cycle, driven by the shift of monetary credit from supply - constraint to demand - constraint, the change of economic endogenous momentum, and insufficient effective demand [4][134][137] - **Macro - Prudential Assessment** - The bond market is expanding, mainly driven by interest - rate bonds, and investors face more interest - rate risks. Current regulatory assessments focus more on credit expansion, lacking constraints on interest - rate and duration risks. Asset management product scale is increasing, and fixed - income asset allocation is strong. Banks and insurance institutions face the pressure of inverted liability costs and asset returns. Monetary easing is necessary but needs to balance internal and external factors and risks [4][142][155] - **Q2 Market Outlook** - In Q2, "macro - prudential" supervision may give way to loose trading. Monetary - fiscal cooperation may be prioritized to boost domestic demand and hedge external risks. The liquidity in Q2 is expected to be loose, and the bond - curve shape may change from flat to bull - steep [4]

Report Title - "The Divergence of Long - Short Term Spreads - Credit Spread Weekly Report (5/4)" [1][6] Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the given content Core Viewpoints - From April 27th to April 30th, most bond yields declined.

1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - The bond market currently shows a pattern of short - end repair and long - end differentiation. Short - term high - grade credit bonds are performing well, while long - term low - grade credit bonds still have room for spread repair. [2][6][15] - The liability - side stability of the wealth management market provides support for credit bond allocation. The net - loss ratio is low, and the scale fluctuation is narrowing. [7] - After the cross - month point, the capital market sentiment has eased, and the selling pressure on credit bonds has weakened. Different institutional behaviors have reshaped the market structure. [8] - It is recommended to adopt a progressive allocation strategy from short to long along the yield curve. [9][15] 3. Summary by Related Catalogs 3.1 Short Credit Repair, Long - Duration Waiting for Progressive Layout - From March 10th to 14th, short - term credit bonds showed relative advantages. The 1 - year - below AAA credit bond index rose by 0.05%, while the 10 - year - above treasury bond full - price index adjusted by - 1.12%. [16] - The short - end repair is in progress, but the long - end low - grade credit bond yield curve and spread repair are still lagging. As of the latest point, the yield of AA - rated 5 - year bonds has increased by about 10 basis points compared with the end of September last year, and the 5 - year AA - credit spread has widened by about 31 basis points. [17] 3.2 Wealth Management Net - Loss Ratio Shows Structural Differentiation and Seasonal Repair Characteristics - The current net - loss ratio of wealth management products is generally controllable. The net - loss ratios of state - owned and joint - stock wealth management subsidiaries are around 3%, and those of city and rural commercial banks are around 3.5% and 5% respectively. [19] - The scale of joint - stock wealth management subsidiaries has been gently expanding. The actual redemption pressure is controllable as the average redemption yield is higher than the lower limit of the performance benchmark. [21] 3.3 Capital Sentiment Eases, Credit Bond Selling Pressure Alleviates - After the cross - month point, the capital market sentiment index gradually declined. The selling pressure on credit bonds in the second half - week of March 10th - 14th decreased significantly, with the GVN of credit bonds dropping from 9156 on March 11th to 6322. [27][29] 3.4 Short - End Repair Momentum Strengthens and Long - End Spread Structure Adjusts in Parallel - The short - end pricing pressure of the bond market has been significantly relieved.
