We believe the adjustments in real estate policies since August have arrived just in time to prevent housing sales from declining further. Following the Politburo meeting at the end of July that highlighted the major changes in supply and demand dynamics in China’s property market, a slew of measures was rolled out to adjust and optimize real estate policies, including a cut to the floor of down payment ratio on first- and second-home purchases, relaxed standards for identifying first-home mortgages across first-tier cities, and lower interest rates on existing mortgages. In our view, the implementation of such policies would unleash part of the pent-up demand from first-home buyers.

3月楼市迎来“小阳春”行情，行业结构性分化加剧。总体来看，1-3月全国商品房销售额和销售面积累计同比分别下降2.1%和3.0%，降幅较1-2月分别收窄0.5和2.1个百分点。70个大中城市房价指数显示，各线城市房价均有不同程度回暖，新房和二手房价格环比上涨城市数量分别增至24个和10个，较上月增加6个和7个。结构分化主要体现在三方面：

• 城市间K形分化特征愈发凸显，高能级城市独撑“回稳”大局。
• 二手房交易热度强于新房，新房价格回暖主要由改善盘入市支撑。
• 房企销售表现持续分化，国有与非国有阵营差距进一步拉大。

• 我们认为，极端关税将对企业投资和家庭消费行为产生非线性影响，即使中国经济对美出口依赖已有所降低，但其对消费、投资带来的间接效应仍将非常广泛。
• 我们认为，纺织业、消费电子及汽车零配件行业对美国市场依赖度高、产能可替代性较强、且中小企业占比较大，所受到的冲击将更为显著。
• 我们认为需密切关注中小企业的信用质量变化，特别是在纺织、消费电子、家电和汽车零配件等中小企业密集的行业。这些企业的信用质量可能因其客户地域多元化、产业链灵活性及财务抗风险能力不足而更加脆弱。
