Will prosperity-driven investment return to A-shares? What is the impact of external rate-hike disruptions? Here are the strategic views from ten major brokerages.

Cailian Press, September 6 (Editor: Lin Xia) – The latest strategic outlooks from ten major brokerages have been released, as detailed below: Bank of China International Securities: External rate-hike disruptions persist; adopt a defensive stance in the short term. Non-farm payrolls data reinforces rate-hike expectations, making short-term interest rate volatility difficult to alleviate. Following the release of the August non-farm payrolls data, market pricing for a September rate hike has risen further. The CME-implied probability of a September rate hike has climbed to 59%, driving up long-end U.S. Treasury yields, with the 10-year yield briefly touching 4.79%. In the near term, the trajectory of rate-hike expectations hinges on the inflation data scheduled for release next week. The phased rebound in oil prices in August may exert marginal upward pressure on August inflation.

U.S. military strikes three Iranian oil tankers for the first time, escalating Strait of Hormuz tensions from "targeting infrastructure" to "disrupting transport"

The nature of the military conflict between the United States and Iran underwent a significant shift this week. As U.S. military strikes targeted crude oil tankers in transit for the first time, moving beyond coastal military facilities, this marks a formal escalation from "targeting production capacity and infrastructure" to "disrupting transportation corridors." Consequently, market focus has shifted from "the extent of Iran's production cuts" to "whether the U.S. military intends to systematically sever Iran's crude oil supply chains," prompting a reassessment of global crude oil pricing logic.

① Industrial and Commercial Bank of China (ICBC) was not the only institution to intensify its write-off efforts in the first half of this year; other banks, including China Construction Bank, Huaxia Bank, Ping An Bank, and Bank of Jiangsu, also significantly increased their write-offs. ② There are multiple reasons for banks to accelerate the write-off of non-performing loans (NPLs): on one hand, regulatory authorities have encouraged such actions; on the other hand, there is pressure to clear out bad debts. ③ Such large-scale write-offs are generally one-time measures and are not expected to occur frequently.
