Report Information - Report Title: 2026 March Macroeconomic Monthly Report [2] - Release Date: March 2, 2026 [2] - Analyst: Wang Jing [2] - Analyst Certificate Number: F0235424/Z0000771 [2] Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the given content Core Views - In February, global capital markets continued to be volatile due to disputes over AI investment, the resurgence of the Trump tariff issue, the escalation of the US-Iran conflict, the rise of Chinese robots during the Spring Festival, and German Chancellor Merz's visit to China. The domestic market was in a state of weak reality and weak expectations, with the market oscillating and correcting. Investors are looking forward to the Two Sessions in early March [4][27]. - The controversy over AI investment has led to significant fluctuations in related asset prices. The market's debate on AI bubbleization has reached a fever pitch. Investors need to carefully select individual stocks. The final reversal of the bubble narrative will depend on the actual breakthroughs in large - model commercialization, the improvement of the input - output ratio, and changes in macro - liquidity. Before that, market volatility may become the norm [6][17]. - Trump's tariff issue has resurfaced, and the US foreign trade policy has become more complex. The new tariff system has different impacts on different countries, and the real game will take place in subsequent industry investigations and high - level Sino - US dialogues [20][22]. - From a statistical perspective, the South China Commodity Index has a relatively high probability of falling in March. Coupled with the sudden outbreak and expansion of the US - Iran war, investors need to strengthen risk management [7][40]. Summary by Directory Global Capital Market Performance - Volatility Index VIX: After sharp fluctuations, it ended up rising [4][27]. - Precious Metals: Gold and silver first declined and then rose, ending up rising [4][27]. - Global Stock Markets: Gains and losses were mixed. Stock indices in Japan and South Korea led the gains, while those in China and the US declined. The BDI index slightly decreased [4][27]. - Foreign Exchange Market: The US dollar rebounded with fluctuations, non - US currencies slightly weakened, and the Australian dollar rose strongly [4][27]. - Commodities: Most commodities ended up rising. The strength of soybeans drove up agricultural product prices, and non - ferrous metals remained strong but showed internal differentiation [4][27]. Domestic Futures Market Performance - Stock Indices: Most of the four major stock indices ended up rising. Growth stocks outperformed value stocks, and the divergence in overseas AI investment hindered sector rotation in the stock market [5][33]. - Treasury Bond Futures: All treasury bond futures ended up rising slightly, maintaining a structure where short - term bonds were weaker and long - term bonds were stronger [5][33]. - Commodities: After reaching a high and then falling, commodities oscillated and recovered, with internal differentiation continuing. Precious metals' sharp decline dragged down the overall performance of the commodity index. The agricultural sector was stronger than the industrial sector [5][33]. AI Investment Dispute - Market Sensitivity: A fictional "AI Doomsday Report" caused a short - term sharp drop in US stocks, while technology giants continued to make huge investments [6][17]. - Different Views: The short side believes that AI has a large bubble, with risks such as over - valuation and potential systemic collapse. The long side believes that AI's prosperity is firmly supported by national strategies and strong corporate earnings [17][18]. Trump Tariff Issue - Policy Changes: The US Supreme Court ruled that Trump's previous tariff - imposing actions were illegal. Trump's administration then imposed a 10% ad - valorem temporary import surcharge on all trading partners, which was later raised to 15% [21]. - Impact on Different Countries: For China, the weighted average tariff rate decreased, which was a marginal positive in the short term. For countries like the UK and Australia, the actual tariff rate increased, reshaping the export competitiveness of various countries to the US [22]. Global Economic Performance - Economic Prosperity: Global economic prosperity improved, with the JP Morgan Global Composite PMI, Services PMI, and Manufacturing PMI all recovering.

The growth rate of RMB loans accelerated to the bottom, and the deposit - loan gap of financial institutions continued to widen [82]. - External Demand: China's export growth remained strong, but export prices were low.
