December Goldilocks
上週五非農就業報告略顯平淡,12 月仍有較高機會降息。非農就業整體數據略高於預期,但上個月的疲弱數據(僅1.2 萬)幾乎沒有上修,表明就業市場確實存在一些疲軟跡象,不過失業率略高顯示就業市場正在逐步降溫,並未出現顯著惡化,在當前正面的風險背景下,這為美聯儲於 12 月再次降息提供了支持,目前市場預計 12 月降息 25 個基點的可能性為 85%,而 1 月再次降息的可能性約為 30%。 平淡的非農就業報告顯示就業市場仍在逐步放緩 Source: Bloomberg 市場預計下週降息可能性為 85% Source: Bloomberg 債券波動率跌至多年低點,收益率進一步下降,2 年期收益率接近 4%,10 年期回到 4.15%,在 FOMC 會議之前,市場將迎來 CPI 和 PPI 數據發布,這是年底前最後幾個重要的經濟數據,隨著 Trump 2.0 政策逐漸成形,收益率曲線可能會再次走陡。 隨著對通脹與供應過剩的擔憂減弱,債券波動率大幅下降 Source: Bloomberg 美股方面,由於數據利好與債市的鴿派表現,美股再度逼近歷史新高。技術面仍然具有支撐性,騰落指數持續向右上方移動,創下 52 週新高的家數仍然超過新低,股票市場全面上漲。 美國股市技術面仍然具有支撐性 Source: Cam Hui 有趣的是,風險偏好如此普遍,以至於增長股再次跑贏價值股,這在經濟增長後期階段相對罕見。這是當前市場過熱的反向信號,還是市場在 1 月份可能迎來新一輪上漲的初步跡象?可以肯定的是,在當前市場中,任何形式的空頭都面臨著巨大的風險…… 增長股在當前漲勢中領先價值股 Source: Cam Hui 在加密貨幣方面,各項指標全面向好,BTC 再次收在 10 萬美元附近,而…

December Goldilocks
A somewhat lukewarm NFP kept December rate cuts alive, with headlings slightly beating estimates, but last month’s poor figure (12k) saw little upward revisions, pointing to some factual weakness in the job market. However, a slightly high unemployment rate suggests that the labour market is cooling gradually without significant deterioration, offering cover for the Fed…

The Fox Guarding the Hen House
隨著 BTC 逼近 10 萬美元大關,過去一週每個宏觀觀察者似乎都變成了 MSTR 可轉債的專家,加密貨幣再度成為新聞焦點,自 FTX 事件後最大程度地吸引了主流的注意力。 正如我們過去所提及的,“輕鬆階段”已經結束,隨著遲來的投資者帶著大量槓桿進入市場,未來的市場波動將顯著加劇。 Microstrategy 在其原本 26 億美元的可轉債(0% 票息,55% 溢價)基礎上,成功行使了 4 億美元的超額配售權,將最終規模提升至 30 億美元。根據 Cointelegraph 報導,Allianz 保險是此次交易的主要參與者之一,這批 2029 年到期的可轉債在首個交易日的收盤價突破 $104。 超額配售權全額行使,將 MSTR 可轉債規模提升至 30 億美元,有報告指出大型機構參與踴躍 Source: X 2029 年到期的 MSTR 可轉債在交易第一天價格就突破 $104(相對於面額) Source: Bloomberg 華爾街參與其中的諷刺意味顯而易見。多年來指責加密貨幣存在高風險且缺乏基本價值,如今這些銀行卻在爭相主導這筆交易。實際上,當 BTC 在 6 千到 6 萬美元時,這些銀行都聲稱 BTC 毫無價值,而現在,這些承銷商卻暗示投資者,在 95k 的價格基礎上支付 55% 的溢價,且是通過一個間接的股票工具來購買 BTC “相當合理”。我們不會深入討論…

The Fox Guarding the Hen House

Naturally, as we discussed over the past few weeks, the ‘easy innings’ are now over and things…
