China 10Y Yield Falls After Inflation Data

2025-12-10 04:32 By Czyrill Jean Coloma 1 min. read

China’s 10-year government bond yield fell to a one-week low of around 1.84% as investors reacted to the latest inflation data, which added complexity to the monetary policy outlook.

Consumer prices rose 0.7% year-on-year in November 2025, the highest level since February 2024.

The Politburo recently pledged to boost domestic demand and support the wider economy in 2026, while maintaining a cautious stance on stimulus measures.

Meanwhile, producer price deflation deepened to 2.2% in November, marking the 38th consecutive month of declining producer prices.

Beijing has committed to tackling what it calls “disorderly” price competition, but progress has been slow amid concerns that more aggressive regulatory action could risk jobs or undermine already fragile growth.

Market focus is now shifting to the upcoming Central Economic Work Conference, where policymakers are expected to set next year’s growth targets and outline key policy priorities for China’s 2026 economic agenda.

China 10Y Yield Hits 3-Month Low
China’s 10-year government bond yield fell to around 1.78% on Thursday, hitting its lowest level since November 2025, supported by a moderately accommodative stance from the People’s Bank of China. The central bank reiterated its commitment to a “moderately loose” policy, signaling careful adjustments to the pace and timing of measures in response to evolving domestic and global conditions and market development. The guidance comes ahead of the latest inflation data, which showed annual consumer price growth slowing to 0.2% in January 2026 from 0.8% in December, while producer price deflation eased to 1.4% from 1.9%. Meanwhile, China sold CNY 14 billion in sovereign bonds in its first Hong Kong auction of the year, at the lowest yields in over a decade, reflecting strong demand and supporting Beijing’s push to expand the yuan’s global use. The 2-year bond was issued at 1.38%, while 3-year and 5-year bonds were sold at 1.4% and 1.57%, with 10-year and 30-year maturities also offered.

China 10Y Yield Nears 8-Week Low
China’s 10-year government bond yield traded below 1.8% on Tuesday, nearing its lowest level in eight weeks, after Chinese regulators urged banks to curb excessive exposure to US Treasuries. Financial institutions were advised to rein in Treasury holdings and trim positions where exposure is high, citing concentration risk and market volatility. Still, the move was framed as market risk diversification rather than a geopolitical signal or a loss of confidence in US credit. The shift reinforces broader diversification away from dollar-denominated assets and could accelerate capital repatriation into Chinese markets, putting yields under pressure. Meanwhile, the People’s Bank of China has been ramping up liquidity injections ahead of the Lunar New Year to cover a large temporary funding shortfall amid cash withdrawals linked to holiday spending. By supplying banks with extra cash, demand for government bonds rises, weighing further on yields.
