Policy support and market sentiment have strengthened, with stock indices reversing upward and bond term spreads widening.

Key Summary

1. Policy Measures

   • China’s central bank cut the reserve requirement ratio by 0.5% and lowered policy interest rates, injecting liquidity worth ~CNY 1 trillion.
   • Fiscal policies target stabilizing housing prices, reducing inventory, and boosting market liquidity.
   • U.S. and Eurozone central banks cut rates by 50 and 25 basis points respectively, easing global inflation pressures.

2. Market Performance

   • Stock Indices: The CSI 300, SSE 50, CSI 500, and CSI 1000 all surged ~10-13% in September 2024, with CSI 500/1000 outperforming. Volatility spiked, but risk-adjusted metrics like the Sharpe ratio improved.
   • Bond Market: China’s 10-year yield fell, while the 10-1-year spread widened, indicating long-term bond purchases. Global yields remain low due to central bank easing.

3. Economic Indicators
