美债反弹在望 能否成行还看鲍威尔“定调”
Zhi Tong Cai Jing· 2025-09-23 11:57
美国国债正朝着五个交易日以来的首次上涨迈进。交易员预计,多位美联储官员即将发表的讲话,可能 会释放出更多降息信号。 当前美债各期限收益率普遍下行,其中10年期国债收益率下跌2个基点至4.13%。此前,由于美联储官 员在上周释放出对进一步宽松政策持谨慎态度的信号,且周一的相关表态延续了这一基调,美债市场一 直承压。 鉴于周二将有多位美联储官员发表讲话——包括主席鲍威尔及政策制定者古尔斯比、鲍曼和博斯蒂克, 投资者正寻求更明确的方向信号。目前市场对美联储未来政策路径的不确定性较高,因此投资者在押注 时更倾向于选择那些即便经济出现意外波动导致降息计划受阻,仍有望获得回报的标的。 Pepperstone高级研究策略师Michael Brown表示:"市场希望鲍威尔能澄清上周降息被定性为'风险管理 式'举措所引发的部分困惑。"他还补充称,早盘两年期美债的拍卖可能会被市场较好消化。 上周鲍威尔实施备受期待的降息时,将此次降息描述为一次"风险管理式"的举措,并强调需在就业市场 出现的疲软迹象与通胀上行风险之间取得平衡。 自该决定公布以来,美联储官员对未来进一步宽松的时机与可能性释放出了相互矛盾的信号。美联储官 员穆萨勒姆表 ...

美债中国持仓暴跌42%,香港秘密助力?中国的黄金底牌内幕揭开

Core Viewpoint - The downgrade of U.S. Treasury bonds by Moody's has led to a significant decline in global confidence, prompting countries like China and Hong Kong to reduce their holdings, which could signal a shift away from U.S. dollar assets and a potential end to dollar hegemony [1][3][12]. Group 1: Impact of Moody's Downgrade - Moody's downgrade of U.S. Treasury bonds has resulted in global financial institutions reassessing the safety of these assets, with Hong Kong's Mandatory Provident Fund being forced to sell off U.S. Treasuries due to the loss of AAA rating [3][5]. - As of May 2025, China's holdings of U.S. Treasuries have plummeted by 42% from their peak in 2013, now standing at $765.4 billion [5][7]. - The market reaction has been severe, with the 30-year Treasury yield surpassing 5%, the highest since 2007, and the U.S. dollar index dropping to around 100 [7][11]. Group 2: China's Strategy and Global Reactions - China's reduction in U.S. Treasury holdings is a strategic move to mitigate risks associated with U.S. financial policies and geopolitical tensions [7][11]. - The shift away from U.S. Treasuries is part of a broader trend where countries are increasingly turning to gold and other currencies, as evidenced by China's record gold purchases and the rise of the renminbi in cross-border transactions [11][12]. - The potential for a financial crisis is heightened as rising Treasury yields increase global borrowing costs, leading to economic distress in developing countries and impacting global financial stability [11][14]. Group 3: Political and Economic Implications - The political polarization in the U.S. has been identified as a key factor undermining trust in U.S. debt, with both major parties failing to implement fiscal tightening measures [9]. - Former President Trump's response to the downgrade has included blaming the current administration and calling for interest rate cuts to alleviate debt burdens, reflecting a lack of accountability for the rising national debt [9][14]. - The ongoing crisis may lead to a significant transformation in global finance, with predictions that 2025 could be one of the most tumultuous years since the collapse of the Bretton Woods system [14].
美债面临崩溃,美国正走向破产,白宫在线“乞讨”,就等民众捐钱

最后,特朗普政府还通过成立"政府效率部"来试图削减政府开支。然而,这一策略也面临着许多困难。一方面,多个政府部门对"政府效率部"的工作并不积 极配合,这给该部门的运作带来了很大的阻力。另一方面,特朗普在推动削减开支的同时,又推出了"大而美"法案,预计这一法案将新增3.4万亿美元的债 务,形成了削减与增加政府开支的矛盾。即使"政府效率部"能够有效减少一些不必要的开支,也难以填补庞大的债务缺口。因此,单靠这一措施无法有效缓 解美债危机。 美国国债面临崩溃的风险,特朗普政府的应对策略引发了广泛关注。此前,美国财政部长贝森特曾强烈表示,美国不会让美债违约,称"我们接近警戒线, 但绝对不会撞上那道墙",他坚称美债违约是绝不可能发生的。面对如此巨大的国债,美国政府采取了三种主要的应对措施:加征关税、向民众募款以及通 过成立"政府效率部"来削减政府开支。 首先,加征关税的做法不难理解。特朗普上台后发起了全球贸易战,而在今年四月,他更是推出了"对等关税"政策,将贸易战推向了高潮。从表面上看,这 一政策似乎取得了一些成果,确实增加了美国财政收入。根据美国财政部发布的数据,今年六月,美国的财政盈余超过了270亿美元,比去年同期增 ...

Group 1 - The "Big and Beautiful" Act passed in the U.S. Congress will increase the debt ceiling by $5 trillion, leading to a significant surge in U.S. Treasury bond issuance, creating historical supply challenges for the market [3] - The act proposes a $4 trillion tax cut and a reduction of at least $1.5 trillion in spending over the next decade, which the Congressional Budget Office estimates will result in an additional $2.8 trillion deficit over the same period [3][4] - Historical data shows that the U.S. has raised the debt ceiling over seventy times since its establishment in 1917, indicating that the so-called "debt crisis" is primarily a political tool rather than a genuine sovereign credit risk [4][6] Group 2 - The recent increase in the debt ceiling alleviates short-term default risks but introduces significant supply-side shocks to the Treasury market, with upward pressure on short-term Treasury yields [5] - The upcoming peak in Treasury maturities in 2025, combined with a growing fiscal deficit, will necessitate increased Treasury issuance, which is expected to drive up yields, particularly in the context of the Federal Reserve's balance sheet reduction [5][6] - The long-term risks associated with deferred debt issues include rising interest rates, concerns over fiscal sustainability, and increased market risk premiums, which could spill over into the global financial market [6] Group 3 - The electricity market is experiencing upward pressure on prices, with expectations that electricity price increases may outpace coal price rises due to extreme weather conditions and increased demand for thermal power generation [11][12] - The national electricity load reached a historical high of 1.465 billion kilowatts, with significant contributions from air conditioning loads, indicating a robust demand environment [12] - The introduction of new high-voltage direct current projects aims to enhance electricity supply and optimize pricing structures, reflecting a strategic shift in energy management [13]

机构:2025年下半年美债需求或现结构性分化

Core Viewpoint - Huatai Securities recently released a research report on U.S. Treasury bonds, analyzing the characteristics and behavioral logic of U.S. Treasury investors from the demand side, and forecasting the market supply-demand pattern for the second half of 2025 [1][4]. Investor Structure and Behavior - Global investors currently hold over $26 trillion in U.S. Treasury bonds, with international and overseas investors holding $8.6 trillion, accounting for 33% of total holdings, making them the largest buyers [3]. - Broad-based mutual funds hold $5 trillion, representing nearly 20% of the total, while the Federal Reserve is projected to hold $3.8 trillion by the end of 2024, accounting for about 15% [3]. - The combined holdings of these three categories consistently exceed 60% [3]. - Other investors include individual investors, commercial banks, state and local governments, pension funds, and insurance companies, ranked by their holding sizes [3]. Motivations and Strategies - The Federal Reserve, as a policy-driven institution, primarily uses medium to long-term bonds, with its buying and selling actions directly linked to balance sheet adjustment goals [3]. - Overseas official institutions' bond purchasing decisions are influenced by factors such as exchange rates, trade balance, and financial stability, often showing a negative correlation with the U.S. dollar index [3]. - Private sector investors tend to engage in carry trades for returns, while U.S. residents exhibit a "buy high, sell low" behavior, dynamically reallocating between stocks and bonds [3]. - Hedge funds prefer basis trading strategies, while commercial banks' bond purchases are significantly affected by loan-to-deposit ratios and maturity structures [3]. Future Outlook - The report anticipates that the Federal Reserve may conclude its balance sheet reduction process by the end of the year and potentially halt its reduction of U.S. Treasury holdings [4]. - Overseas official institutions are expected to have limited motivation to reduce holdings in a weak dollar environment, although the declining attractiveness of U.S. Treasuries as a safe asset poses a significant risk [4]. - Private institutions face pressure from dollar depreciation, which could diminish the yield advantage of U.S. Treasuries if they engage in currency hedging [4]. - U.S. residents are less likely to significantly increase their allocation to U.S. Treasuries due to the relative attractiveness of U.S. equities [4]. - Demand from commercial banks is expected to improve, benefiting from steady deposit growth, a steepening yield curve, and potential loosening of supplementary leverage ratio (SLR) rules [4]. - Pension funds and mutual funds are projected to maintain stable growth in holdings, driven by asset allocation needs and market preference trends [4]. - Huatai's team believes that the U.S. Treasury market will exhibit structurally differentiated demand characteristics in the second half of 2025, with policy adjustments, exchange rate fluctuations, and asset allocation shifts being key variables [4].

Core Insights - The report from CITIC Securities analyzes the impact of U.S. Treasury yields on U.S. stocks, non-U.S. sovereign bonds, and the dollar, highlighting the interconnectedness of global assets driven by economic and policy factors [1] Group 1: U.S. Treasury and Stock Correlation - The correlation between U.S. Treasuries and U.S. stocks is influenced by both the economic cycle and monetary policy [3] - Post-financial crisis, a "great moderation" period led to a negative correlation between U.S. Treasuries and stocks, with Treasuries serving as a risk hedge [3] - Since 2020, the correlation has shifted to positive, driven by rising inflation pressures, fiscal sustainability concerns, and global asset rebalancing [3] Group 2: Cross-Country Interest Rate Linkages - The analysis breaks down bond yields into short-term rate expectations and term premiums, showing a significant positive correlation between U.S. and Eurozone term premiums [4] - The U.S. and Eurozone account for over 60% of global cross-border debt investment, leading to stronger yield linkages compared to emerging markets [4] - Rising U.S. Treasury yields may pose contagion risks for Eurozone bond rates, while emerging markets are relatively insulated [4] Group 3: Dynamic Relationship with the Dollar - The report employs the "dollar smile" and "fiscal frown" frameworks to explain the dynamic between U.S. Treasury yields and the dollar index [5] - Under the "dollar smile" theory, the dollar tends to appreciate during deep recessions or strong expansions, while it weakens during periods of slowing growth [5] - Concerns over fiscal sustainability may lead foreign investors to reduce their U.S. asset allocations, resulting in high Treasury yields coexisting with a relatively weak dollar [5] Group 4: Future Considerations - U.S. Treasury yield fluctuations are becoming a core variable in global asset pricing, with their transmission mechanisms evolving with economic cycles and policy environments [5] - Investors are advised to closely monitor term premiums, cross-border capital flows, and fiscal policy dynamics to navigate the challenges and opportunities presented by global asset interconnectedness [5]
