Guosheng Securities Chief Economist Xiong Yuan: Further RRR and interest rate cuts can be expected in 2025

Golden Ten Data reported on December 31 that in terms of RRR cuts, Xiongyuan expects that the RRR may be cut 2~3 times in 2025, with a range of 50~100BP.

Central Bank Meeting Minutes: The decision to cut interest rates by 50bp for the second consecutive time was a difficult one.

Jinshi data, December 24th, the minutes of the Canadian Central Bank meeting showed that the decision of the Central Bank to cut interest rates by 50 basis points for the second time in a row was a "50/50 choice," with some policymakers initially leaning towards a smaller rate cut. Some members said that a 25 basis point rate cut would be the best move, giving people time to assess the impact of the rate cuts since June. The rate cut has led to a stronger consumption and real estate activity. They believe that as the overall impact of the rate cuts in the past becomes clearer, policy can remain patient. However, in the end, policymakers lowered the Benchmark Interest Rate by 50 basis points because they had previously concluded that with inflation reaching 2%, economic overcapacity, and a weak outlook for the rise, monetary policy "no longer needs to be significantly restrictive." But they also acknowledged that not all recent data indicated the need for a 50 basis point rate cut. However, they also believe that a rate cut of this magnitude is unlikely to make the Interest Rate "lower than" .
