Regarding the monetary policy in 2026, the Deputy Governor of the People's Bank of China stated recently that there is still some room for reserve requirement ratio and interest rate cuts this year.
The Greenland crisis and fiscal pressure triggered a global bond market sell - off, with U.S. and Japanese bonds leading the decline! Market concerns are fermenting on multiple fronts: the expanding U.S. fiscal deficit has weakened the safe - haven appeal of U.S. treasury bonds; European countries may sell trillions of dollars of U.S. treasury bonds in response to the tariff war; and Japanese investors may withdraw capital due to the rise in local yields.
Japanese bond auction met with a cold reception, and the sell - off intensified, with yields entering the "4% era". The yield on the 40 - year Japanese government bond rose 27 basis points to 4.215%. As Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi's aggressive fiscal expansion plan triggered market panic and the demand for the 20 - year government bond auction was weak, Japanese government bonds experienced a historic sell - off. The yield on the 30 - year Japanese government bond rose 26.5 basis points to 3.875%, and the yield on the 40 - year Japanese government bond climbed 27 basis points to 4.215%, continuing to hit a record high.

Japan's Finance Minister called on the market to remain calm.
Bessent said that the candidate for the Federal Reserve Chairman may be announced as early as next week, and there are four highly potential candidates for the position.

Regarding the EU's countermeasures that the market is worried about, Bessent said that Europe has not discussed selling U.S. treasury bonds, and European countries will definitely continue to hold U.S. treasury bonds.
Bessent attributed part of the decline in U.S. bonds on Tuesday to the "spillover effect" of the Japanese bond market, saying that the Japanese bond market had a volatility of "six standard deviations". Japan's Finance Minister Satsuki Katayama stated that Japan's dependence on debt issuance is the lowest in 30 years, its fiscal deficit is the smallest among the G7 countries, and the government will consider tax reduction measures as a financing option.

Earlier, Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi announced the "end of fiscal austerity", which triggered a sell - off of government bonds.
Is this a currency war? Trump's attack on the US dollar and Sanae Takaichi's weakening of the yen.

Netflix delivered excellent Q4 results but provided a weak Q1 outlook. It suspended share repurchases for the acquisition of Warner Bros., and its stock price once dropped by more than 5% after hours. Despite the adverse impact of foreign exchange fluctuations, Netflix's Q4 revenue still increased by nearly 18% year - on - year, exceeding expectations, driven by the growth in paying users and stronger - than - expected advertising sales. The number of subscribers exceeded 325 million at the end of the year, an increase of nearly 8% over the past year. However, its Q1 profit guidance was far below expectations, with the EPS guidance more than 7% lower than analysts' expectations and the full - year operating profit margin also falling short of expectations. Netflix said that the full - year guidance includes about 275 million US dollars in acquisition - related expenses, and it plans to increase its spending on film and television content by 10% throughout the year.

If Netflix successfully acquires Warner Bros., the combined number of subscribers of the two companies will reach about 450 million, and it will provide Netflix with a huge content library to compete with rivals such as Disney and Amazon.
## Selected Research Reports
Ray Dalio of Bridgewater Associates warned that Trump's policies may trigger a "capital war". Dalio believes that the escalating trade tensions and rising fiscal deficits may weaken the confidence of the outside world in U.S. debt, prompting investors to turn to hard assets such as gold. He suggested that investors take gold as a key hedging tool and allocate 5% - 15% of gold in a typical investment portfolio.
With 10 trillion US dollars of U.S. stock and bond assets in hand, dare Europe launch a "capital war"? European countries' holdings of U.S. bonds and stocks have intensified speculation about the "weaponization of capital". However, most of these assets are held by private funds beyond the control of the government, making it difficult for policymakers to force a sale. Any move to weaponize European - held U.S. assets will constitute a serious escalation of the situation, expanding the trade war into a financial conflict.
Are tariffs not the "core risk"? Wilson of Morgan Stanley: The EU's "anti - coercion" tool will be the next "invisible storm" for tech giants. Morgan Stanley warned that the core risk of the U.S. - EU trade dispute is not tariffs, but that the EU may use the "anti - coercion" tool to crack down on U.S. tech giants. This move will have a more serious structural impact on their European operations than tariffs, leading to the market's early sell - off of tech stocks and the transfer of funds to small - cap stocks and gold for safe - haven purposes.
JPMorgan Chase: Don't panic! The Greenland crisis may be resolved at Davos. Regarding the U.S. - EU tariff dispute triggered by Greenland, JPMorgan Chase holds an optimistic attitude, believing that this move is actually the "art of the deal" aimed at creating bargaining chips for negotiations. It is expected that the two sides will eventually reach an agreement to expand the U.S. security and resource rights and interests in Greenland while maintaining Denmark's sovereignty. Investors do not need to panic excessively due to the current fluctuations, and a solution may emerge during the World Economic Forum in Davos.
A time of extreme greed! BofA Fund Manager Survey: The expectation of a "no - landing" global economy has become a consensus for the first time, and the stock hedging ratio has dropped to an eight - year low. The latest survey by Bank of America shows that the market sentiment has reached its highest level since 2021. The expectation of "no - landing" has replaced "soft landing" for the first time, driving the cash position to a historical low and the stock allocation to soar. There are contradictory signals amid the extreme optimism: "going long on gold" has surpassed tech stocks to become the most crowded trade, indicating that while chasing risks, funds are buying "hedging insurance" against the lingering geopolitical risks.
BofA Asia Fund Manager Survey: India is out of favor, China's narrative has reversed, and semiconductors are still the "most popular sector". For the Chinese market, investors' positive sentiment has reached a new high in the survey, and AI and semiconductors have become the core allocation themes. The Indian market has turned from a slight overweight last month to a net 8% underweight, which may reflect investors' disappointment with the delay of its trade agreement with the United States. Overall, the semiconductor sector continues to dominate investors' preferences, with 54% of respondents overweighting this sector, ranking first among all industries.
Cathie Wood's 2026 Outlook: An upgraded version of "Reaganomics", the U.S. stock market will continue its "golden age", and the strong U.S. dollar will suppress gold. In a letter to investors, Cathie Wood stated that the U.S. nominal GDP growth rate is expected to remain in the range of 6% - 8% in the next few years. With the integration of deregulation, tax cuts, sound monetary policy and innovative technologies, the U.S. stock market will usher in another "golden age". She predicted that the relative advantage of U.S. investment returns will drive a substantial rise in the U.S. dollar exchange rate, repeating the situation in the 1980s when the U.S. dollar almost doubled in value, and warned that the strengthening of the U.S. dollar will suppress the price of gold.

Learning from history, how to "exit at the top" in a bull market? Guolian Minsheng Securities said that although the current A-share sentiment is high and the RSI has entered the overbought zone, there is still room before the real peak is reached. From the perspective of valuation, neither the asset securitization rate nor the risk premium has touched historical extremes; from the perspective of trading, although it is at a high level, the MACD golden cross indicates that the trend has not reversed. Investors can pay attention to the combined signal of "overheated sentiment + MACD death cross".
## Domestic Companies/Industries
Q4 results exceeded expectations, but investors are more concerned about "why TSMC is so aggressive"? Morgan Stanley pointed out that the core reason for TSMC's substantial upward revision of its capital expenditure guidance lies in seizing the long-term demand for AI, coping with the tight supply of equipment, consolidating its market share in advanced manufacturing processes, and avoiding the loss of market share in 2-3 years. The next catalysts will mainly focus on the AI market, paying attention to the capital expenditure guidance of global cloud service providers, the expansion of the semiconductor market scale, and NVIDIA's GTC conference to be held in March.

Trump forced U.S. companies to invest 100 billion US dollars in Venezuela, putting Chevron CEO in a dilemma: withdraw from the market if not investing, and suffer losses if investing. Trump's goal of lowering oil prices to 50 US dollars per barrel runs counter to industry interests. Industry analysts pointed out that if oil prices fall to the level of 50 US dollars per barrel, considering the characteristics of heavy crude oil in Venezuela, its selling price will drop to the range of more than 30 US dollars. "Spending billions of dollars to extract oil priced below 40 US dollars is not economically viable, which will not work anywhere in the world."
