The central bank issued the monetary policy implementation report for the fourth quarter of 2021

On February 11, the central bank released the monetary policy implementation report for the fourth quarter of 2022. We believe that there are the following main concerns:

Steady growth remains the top priority. The report continues the formulation of the "triple pressure" of the central economic work conference, "adhere to the word of stability and strive for progress in stability", and change from "doing well" to "strengthening cross cycle regulation". It will face greater pressure on steady growth and more active policies.

The attention of wide credit has increased. In terms of the main policy ideas in the next stage, compared with the third quarter, the focus is to expand credit supply. "Maintain the stable growth of the total amount of money and credit", "guide financial institutions to vigorously expand loan lending" and "guide financial institutions to increase credit lending to areas with slow credit growth". The overall attitude towards credit easing is consistent with the press conference on January 18, so as to avoid "credit collapse".

Leverage has room to improve. Column 3 elaborates on the macro leverage ratio. In the fourth quarter of 2021, the macro leverage ratio has decreased to 272.5%, falling for five consecutive quarters. "The macro leverage ratio has decreased steadily, creating space for the future financial system to continue to increase the support of the real economy". The implication is that there is room for leverage this year, which also points to credit easing.

Monetary policy will remain stable and loose. Although the term "general gate" was not added in the fourth quarter, it was re mentioned that "do not engage in flood irrigation". We think it can not be simply interpreted as the end of loose monetary policy. Column 1 makes it clear that the judgment of monetary policy should focus on the overall operation of policy interest rate and market interest rate over a period of time, and should not pay too much attention to quantitative indicators.

Marginal relaxation of real estate policy. The report deleted "maintain the continuity, consistency and stability of real estate financial policies" and retained "no speculation in real estate". On January 30, the real estate sales data of large and medium-sized cities are still relatively weak. The central bank pointed out that "investment in some fields is still at the bottom", and it is expected that the real estate policy will still be relaxed marginally.

Overseas inflation remains a concern. The central bank pointed out that "in the future, the CPI operation center may rise slightly compared with the previous year and continue to operate within a reasonable range." Overseas, the supply chain is blocked, the "wage inflation" spiral, the transmission of price increases to the downstream and other factors still lead to great uncertainty about overseas inflation. The central bank will still respond with "me first".

On the whole, under the overall sound and loose tone of monetary policy, the attention gradually began to incline to wide credit and increased leverage, which is conducive to the repair of the real economy. The economic growth rate may show a trend of low before high during the year. The friendly macro policy environment is also favorable to the equity market.

The State Council printed and distributed the plan for promoting agricultural and rural modernization in the 14th five year plan

On February 11, the State Council issued the plan for promoting agricultural and rural modernization during the 14th Five Year Plan period, which makes comprehensive arrangements for the strategic orientation, main objectives, key tasks and policy measures for promoting agricultural and rural modernization during the 14th Five Year Plan period, so as to enhance the support and guarantee capacity of agriculture and rural areas for economic and social development and the stabilizing role of "ballast", We will continue to improve the living standards of farmers.
