On the news front, CITIC Securities believes that there is no sign of a spontaneous market bottoming out, but there is still ample policy space. There is room for action in mortgage interest rates, provident fund loan quotas, personal income tax deduction for mortgage interest, housing inventory management, and home purchase settlement. The bank believes that if demand-side policies are introduced, it is expected to reverse the market's downward trend. Earlier market reports suggested that China may reduce interest rates on existing home loans as early as September. Informed sources said that some home loan rates could be immediately reduced by as much as 50 basis points.

In addition, the Federal Reserve made a significant 50 basis point rate cut and hinted at another 50 basis point cut later this year. Huafu Securities previously pointed out in a research report that there is a strong expectation of overseas interest rate cuts, which may open up further room for domestic interest rate cuts, further releasing housing demand. Against the backdrop of improved global liquidity and continued loose real estate policies, it is recommended to focus on leading real estate developers such as Greentown China Holdings and Yuexiu Property
