1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - The Chinese economy is in a marginal de - leveraging process, with the liability growth rate of the real - sector expected to decline.

The market is currently affected by risk preference, and the subsequent trends of risk preference, economic recovery, and the US economy need to be focused on [2][3][7] - In the context of the contraction of the national balance sheet, the allocation of financial assets should adopt a dumbbell - shaped strategy. The bond market is the large base, and the stock market is the small head. The stock allocation strategy is dividend plus growth, and the bond allocation strategy is duration plus credit - sinking [25] - In the contraction cycle, the equity - bond ratio favors equities to a limited extent, and the value style is more likely to be dominant. Red - dividend stocks with characteristics of non - expansion, good profitability, and survival are recommended [12][67] 3.

Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. Core Viewpoints of the Report - The high point of this round of liquidity has basically been confirmed. The debt - to - GDP ratio of the real sector is expected to decline, and the country is in a marginal deleveraging process. The liquidity of the financial sector has marginally tightened, and the focus is on when the stock - bond ratio will return to favoring bonds. Currently, long - term bonds have a slightly better cost - performance than value - type equity assets. [2][7] - In the contraction cycle, the extent to which the stock - bond ratio favors equities is limited, and the value style is more likely to be dominant. Red - chip stocks are recommended, including an A + H red - chip portfolio of 20 stocks and an A - share portfolio of 20 stocks, mainly concentrated in industries such as banking, telecommunications, petroleum and petrochemicals, and transportation. [8][62] Summary by Directory 1. National Balance Sheet Analysis - **Liability Side**: In May 2025, the debt growth rate of the real sector was 8.9%, down from 9.0% previously. April is expected to be the high point of the debt growth rate of the real sector this year, with a decline starting in June, a rebound in July, and then a return to deleveraging. By the end of the year, the debt growth rate of the real sector is expected to drop to around 8%. The local government debt growth rate reached a new high of 15.3% in June, exceeding market expectations, and is expected to decline to around 12.5% by the end of the year. The liquidity of the financial sector has marginally tightened, and the peak of the loose liquidity since early June was from July 4th to 8th. [2][16][17] - **Fiscal Policy**: Last week, the net increase in government bonds was 32.14 billion yuan (higher than the planned 340 million yuan), and this week, the planned net increase is 17.83 billion yuan. [3][17] - **Monetary Policy**: Last week, the average weekly trading volume of funds increased, the price of funds decreased, and the term spread slightly narrowed. The yield of one - year treasury bonds trended upward, closing at 1.37% at the weekend. The estimated lower limit of the one - year treasury bond yield is about 1.3%, the term spread between the ten - year and one - year treasury bonds is about 30 basis points, and the lower limit of the ten - year treasury bond yield is about 1.6%. The spread between the thirty - year and ten - year treasury bonds is estimated to be 20 basis points, and the lower limit of the thirty - year treasury bond yield is about 1.8%. [3][17] - **Asset Side**: In May, the physical volume data was weaker than in April. The focus is on the duration of the current economic slowdown. The target for the annual real economic growth rate in 2025 is around 5%, and the nominal economic growth rate target is around 4.9%. It remains to be seen whether a nominal economic growth rate of around 5% will become the central target for China's nominal economic growth in the next 1 - 2 years. [4][5][18] 2. Stock - Bond Cost - Performance and Stock - Bond Style - **Last Week's Situation**: The liquidity marginally tightened. It was a bull market for stocks and a bear market for bonds.

Bond yields rose across the board, with the ten - year treasury bond yield rising 2 basis points to 1.67%, the one - year treasury bond yield rising 3 basis points to 1.37%, and the thirty - year treasury bond yield rising 2 basis points to 1.87%.

[6][20] - **Trend Judgment**: In 2025, the real GDP growth rate on the asset side is expected to run smoothly between 4 - 5%. On the liability side, the debt growth rate of the real sector will decline. The stock - bond cost - performance will trend towards favoring bonds, and the equity style will trend towards favoring value. Currently, long - term bonds have a slightly better cost - performance than value - type equity assets. If equity - type value assets continue to fall, there may be a good entry opportunity.
