【新興市場債券】2021年10月基金評論

市場現況:

新興市場債務資產類別在10月份連續第二個月錄得負報酬,當地貨幣主權債(-1.3%)和公司債券(-0.5%)因強勢的美元強勢而陷入困難,而強勢貨幣主權債券報酬則為平坦的。全球通膨擔憂加劇導致一些當地主權債券大幅重新定價,特別是在一些國家繼續以高於預期的速度升息之後。中國房地產高收益公司債的壓力再次成為長久的主題。

新興市場貨幣的表現更為複雜,這得益於與成熟市場的利差擴大(儘管成熟市場利率出現了一些上升趨勢)。油價上漲對俄羅斯盧布和哥倫比亞披索尤其有利。

本基金在這種環境下錄得負報酬,表現低於其基準指數。表現不佳的主要原因是增持了一些在本月陷入困境的高收益主權債券(特別是加納、洪都拉斯和阿根廷),以及其仍擁有中國房地產(佳兆業和禹州)的小部分部位。

從正向的一面來看,沒有接觸某些不良公司債有助於相對報酬(包括突尼斯、黎巴嫩和衣索比亞),而小幅減持當地貨幣債券也是如此。在祕魯總統採取一些有利於市場的舉措之後,增持秘魯當地主權債券是有益的。一些不於基準指數內的債券也做出了積極貢獻,包括埃及鎊、烏克蘭荷林夫納、多明尼加披索和哈薩克坦吉。

投組調整:

本月基金部位沒有發生重大變化。在初級市場,這也是一個平靜的月份,幾乎沒有新的問題出現。

我們在本月出售了一個品質更高的中國物業標的(Cifi)。它幾乎以面值交易,我們看到的潛在上漲空間有限。另一方面,在土耳其央行會議之前關閉土耳其里拉的小部位有利於相對報酬。

我們現在開始在殖利率曲線顯著陡峭且實際殖利率水平具有吸引力的當地利率中尋找更具吸引力的機會,尤其是與許多成熟市場提供的負實際殖利率相比。年初至今,許多新興市場貨幣也走低,許多貨幣仍被低估——我們認為這是我們可能尋求增加曝險的另一個領域。
