【印度溫度計】 印牛行情延續?瀚亞投資提醒觀察 4 大指標

印度 Sensex 指數 2021 上半年漲幅接近 10%,印度債市也因為政府的寬鬆政策、加碼購入政府公債,債市與匯市表現穩定。今年下半年是否隨著疫情緩解,持續股債匯穩定與正向表現呢?

瀚亞印度系列基金當地顧問 ICICI 保誠資產管理點出四大方向,作為投資印度下一步的關鍵指標:

• 印度政府祭出的政策措施。

• 疫苗接種速度。

• 疫情是否持續引發限制流動性限制或經濟活動下滑。

• 經濟復甦的步伐快慢。

溫度計新動態:股市創高莫忘債券

根據瀚亞投資與 ICICI 保誠資產管理提供的印度溫度計指數,至 6 月底最新數值為 124.3,回顧上半年數值軌跡,自 113.2 逐月上升,投資建議亦由「股債均衡配置」轉進「加碼債券部位」。

瀚亞投資認為,看好印度股市下半年三大續強理由,包括(1)疫情降溫,經濟成長率恢復增長。(2)通膨可控,寬鬆政策刺激。(3)季風降雨量高於長期平均,建議投資人可以持續定期定額印度股市。

但隨著股市頻創新高,提醒適度加碼債券部位,形成股債均衡配置的彈性策略,看好印度長期發展的投資人,可透過瀚亞印度股票、債券、平衡等系列基金做完整資產配置。

疫情降溫 經濟估將恢復增長

受到第二波疫情影響,印度經濟成長 4-6 月季度表現將下滑,但也可為隨著疫情降溫於 7-9 月季度恢復增長,加上印度政府和央行採取積極措施,透過結構性改革來刺激經濟增長。

不少投資人向來關心印度通膨問題,通膨確實需密切觀察,但根據印度央行態度,將採取經濟增長為主、通膨抑制為輔的施政方向,內外經濟復甦,政府財政體質將獲得改善,也有助於股市長期表現。

全球各經濟體繼續通過各種財政和貨幣刺激措施支持增長,且成熟國家不斷遞交出強勁的活動數據,需求復甦可望有利於印度出口,成為推升印度股市的多頭動能之一。

印牛行情 可能才剛走一半

根據歷史經驗,過去 30 年期間印度共發生 6 次牛市行情,除 2003-2008 年以外,其餘發生牛市平均期間為 72 周,平均上漲幅度為 284%。對比近一波 Sensex 指數表現,以 2020/4/3 起牛市起點計算,截至 2021/7/15 高點,累積漲幅為 93%,周數僅經歷 68 周,目前行情位置可能才走一半。

印度股市有望衝刺新高,或可持續帶動股票型、股債平衡型基金表現。以瀚亞印度基金為例,自 2005/6/6 成立以來,新台幣級別淨值於今年 7/16 再度突破新高,來到 35.7 新高。擔心股市估值太高的投資人,亦可透過瀚亞印度策略收益平衡基金(本基金有相當比重投資於非投資等級之高風險債券且配息來源可能為本金)布局,本基金今年 6/7 淨值同步創成立以來新高,該檔基金為國內第一檔印度平衡型產品,一次布局股票(30%)與債券(70%)資產。

降波動風險,可加碼債券基金

印度央行 7 月開始今年第二輪大規模購債計畫(GSAP 2.0),預計將會給印度債券價格帶來更多的支撐。此外,印度財政部亦公布救濟措施,主要側重於擴大信貸擔保,亦能幫助緩解第二波 COVID-19 浪潮引發的經濟壓力。

今年來新興市場債券表現當中,印度債券原本表現獨樹一格,不過近期受到匯率以及通膨影響,印度債券價格出現修正,評價回到吸引人的位置,正好提供投資人逢低進場的機會,投資人可透過配息基金來持有印度債券部位。投資人可選擇瀚亞印度策略收益債券基金(本基金有相當比重投資於非投資等級之高風險債券且配息來源可能為本金)瀚亞印度政府基礎建設債券基金(本基金有相當比重投資於非投資等級之高風險債券且配息來源可能為本金)
