Core Viewpoint - The expectation of a GDP growth target set between "4.5% to 5%" is likely to be realized, which has contributed to the decline in bond yields, as this figure is lower than the previous market expectation of "around 5%" [2][3] Group 1: Impact of GDP Growth Target on Bond Yields - A lower GDP growth target is perceived by some investors to correspond with lower interest rates, but this view is debatable as it conflates the growth target with potential economic growth [3] - The natural interest rate, which aligns with maximum economic output and price stability, should match the macro-level interest rates in the long term [3] - The downward adjustment of the annual GDP growth target is not necessarily beneficial for the bond market and may have a neutral to slightly negative impact [3] Group 2: Monetary Policy and Economic Stability - The fundamental goal of financial macro-control is to stabilize economic operations, with economic performance being the core factor influencing monetary policy [4] - When the demand for economic growth is strong, monetary authorities typically lower policy rates and increase liquidity, which is favorable for long-term interest rates [4] - Conversely, a lower economic growth target reduces the necessity for aggressive monetary policy actions, negatively impacting bond market valuations [4] Group 3: Bond Market Outlook - The bond market is expected to remain in a low volatility state until the end of February, with limited space for yield fluctuations, likely stabilizing around 1.8% to 1.9% for the 10-year government bond yield [4] - A significant downward shift in the 10-year government bond yield is anticipated to occur after expectations for a reduction in the 7D OMO rate materialize, but the extent of this shift is expected to be limited [5][6] - The current yield spread between the 10-year bond yield and the 7D OMO rate is only 42 basis points, indicating that substantial compression of this spread is challenging [6]

2026 年 1 月 27 日 总量研究 "4.5%至 5%"的预期与长债的收益率 ——2026 年 1 月 27 日利率债观察 要点 1、"4.5%至 5%"的预期与长债的收益率 经济基本面变化超预期，不理性的预期引发市场快速波动，对当前的货币政策框 架理解不到位。 作者 分析师：张旭 执业证书编号：S0930516010001 010-58452066 zhang_xu@ebscn.com 近段时间，部分投资者预期 2026 年 GDP 增长目标将设定为"4.5%至 5%"， 我们亦认为这个预期兑现的概率是不低的。鉴于"4.5%至 5%"这个表述低于之 前"5%左右"的市场普遍预期，其成为了推动债券收益率下行的催化剂之一。 事实上，今年 1 月 7 日 10 年期国债收益率是 1.90%，至昨日（注：1 月 26 日） 已降至了 1.82%。 为何 GDP 增长目标预期值降低会催化收益率下行？这是因为部分投资者认为， 较低的经济增长目标对应于较低的利率水平。但我们认为，这个观点是值得商榷 的，因为其混淆了（调控者希望达到的）增长目标和（经济自身的）潜在增速两 个概念。无论是上文中提及的"4.5%至 5%" ...
