China 30-Year Treasury Futures Hit 2024 High Before Slipping Below 118

China’s 30-year treasury futures front-month contract touched a new year-to-date high in early trade on October 15 before retreating below the 118 yuan mark by the close. Interbank liquidity stayed loose, with DR001 falling 0.38 basis points to 1.262%, a fresh low since May 19. Easing bank liability pressure and the central bank’s increased medium- and long-term liquidity injections have supported the post-holiday bond rally.

The pullback below 118 after a fresh 2024 high suggests the rally is running into positioning fatigue rather than a shift in fundamentals, since the underlying driver — abundant interbank liquidity and heavier central bank medium- and long-term injections — remains intact. That matters for duration-sensitive RWA and fixed-income products, where the cost of carry and collateral valuations track these yields. The open question is whether the liquidity backdrop keeps compressing long-end yields or whether the failed breakout signals a near-term ceiling.
