The global bond market is currently selling off, and the scale of panda bond issuance has reached a record high

Comparative news. According to CCTV financial reports, the yield on long-term treasury bonds of the world's major economies has continued to rise recently, and the sell-off pressure on the bond market is heating up. However, the Chinese bond market and exchange rate have maintained a relatively smooth operation, and the scale of panda bond issuance has reached a record high for the same period in history. According to the data, as of August 21, the cumulative issuance scale of panda bonds in 2026 reached 209.975 billion yuan, an increase of over 73% over the previous year. Against the backdrop of drastic fluctuations in global bond markets, international institutions are increasing domestic RMB financing, drawing attention. According to industry insiders, we are in a completely different economic and monetary cycle than overseas. Foreign capital accounts for only about 5%-8% of China's bond market, and domestic capital has absolute pricing power. Combined with our monetary policy, we insist that I am the main focus, and overseas shocks cannot reverse the overall trend of the domestic bond market. Looking ahead to the future market, industry insiders believe that the yield on overseas bonds is likely to remain high, the allocation value of RMB bonds is prominent, and the medium to long term may welcome a continuous increase in foreign capital allocation. However, it is also important to note that higher yields on US bonds have raised the return threshold for global allocated funds, and may disrupt the will of overseas institutions to increase their holdings of RMB bonds. Furthermore, the rapid rise in bond yields in overseas developed countries may also limit domestic risk asset valuations.

Whoever sings down Anthropic may be disappointed

Whoever sings down Anthropic may be disappointed

Author: Alan Walker, Silicon Valley Original title: Is Anthropic's Growth Slowing Down? Source of controversy. Claude Code ARR tracking chart produced by TickerTrends. The latest data is $15.12 billion for the week of August 10, 2026, accounting for 21.9% of Anthropic's total ARR. Please note: This is an estimate from a third party agency and is not an official disclosure of Anthropic. The first section below explains how important this difference is. Alan Walker from Silicon Valley made an appointment for dinner in Hong Kong. After some hard work, he discovered that this picture had been retweeted more than 30 times, and the matching statement was similar — “Anthropic's growth has leveled off; 2 trillion dollars is a bubble.” Alan saved the image, zoomed it in, and looked at it again. The problem isn't in this picture. This picture is very well done, and the data is probably done seriously. The problem is that almost everyone who retweeted it was using it to answer a question it couldn't answer at all. 01 Let's first figure out who made this picture, there is a Claude icon in the upper left corner. The color scheme is Claude's familiar orange. At first glance, it looks like an official product. It's not. The author of this picture is TickerTrends and has his name written in the upper right corner. It is a third-party data tracking agency that uses various external signals (application data, payment panels, recruitment, channel caliber, etc.) to estimate the revenue of an unlisted company. The line in the picture is written very honestly: “tracked allocation” -- the percentage of allocations that have been tracked. Let's be clear: Anthropic has never publicly disclosed Claude Code's individual ARR numbers, not once. Every point on this curve has been estimated by an outsider. For example, this is like someone using “long queues at the entrance of a restaurant every day” to estimate its turnover and then draw a beautiful weekly curve. The length of the team does correlate with turnover, but in the middle there is turnover rate, customer unit price, takeout ratio, private room business — you see that the team is three short weeks, and the kitchen is probably being renovated in those three weeks. What is more important is the caliber itself. ARR's algorithm is “revenue for the most recent period times 12.” Enterprise software contracts are not executed evenly every day; they are signed batch by batch. Big orders signed at the end of a quarter will jump a week's curve by a large margin; if the next quarter's big orders aren't signed, the curve will go sideways. Weekly ARR tracking is extremely insensitive to this kind of blocky landing—it will paint the “pace of signing” as a “change in demand.” In a nutshell, what you have in your hand is an unofficial weekly map estimated by an outsider, with a very blunt caliber. Judging by the weight of the “bubble” under it is tantamount to using body temperature to measure blood pressure. 02 I hit myself in the face on this picture. I haven't seen anyone mention it, but it's the most interesting part of the whole thing. The picture shows two numbers: Claude Code is $15.12 billion, or 21.9% of Anthropic's total ARR. By dividing: calculate 15.12 billion ÷ 21.9% = about $69 billion. This is Anthropic's total ARR for the week ending August 10, implied by this image. The official caliber figures reported by Bloomberg, Reuters, and CNBC on August 17 were — $65 billion at the end of July. Clear: This chart, which is being used to prove “slowing growth,” its own implied total number of companies is 4 billion US dollars higher than the official figure ten days ago. Further 10 days until today, if the trend continues, more than 70 billion is a reasonable estimate (this sentence is an inference, not data). In one sentence, people who retweeted only read the number 151.2 and the height of the column, skipping the 21.9% next to it. And that 21.9% said: This company went a step further when everyone shouted “it's slowing down.” I only believe in the two numbers on the same picture that is beneficial to my opinion; this is not called analysis. 03 You are looking at the picture below. The money in the picture above has the upper and lower two pieces. Above is the absolute amount (how many billion dollars), and below is the percentage change (how much more than a percent increase from four weeks ago). The vast majority of people's reasoning is: below...

Comparatively, on the morning of August 20, 2026, the Shenzhen Intermediate People's Court of Guangdong Province handed down a public verdict in the first instance of the case of Evergrande Group Co., Ltd., Evergrande Real Estate Group Co., Ltd. and defendant Xu Jiayin. The court punished Evergrande Group for several crimes, with a fine of RMB 8.82 billion; a fine of RMB 7 billion for Evergrande Real Estate; Xu Jiayin was punished with a combination of crimes, life imprisonment, deprivation of political rights for life, and confiscation of all personal property; and continued to recover the illegal proceeds, and ordered compensation for the shortfall. The court found that Xu Jiayin is the actual controller of Evergrande Group. Between 2016 and 2021, Evergrande Group, Evergrande Real Estate and Xu Jiayin inflated assets, concealed liabilities by means of financial fraud, carried out crimes such as illegal absorption of public deposits, fund-raising fraud, fraudulent issuance of securities, and illegal disclosure of important information; obtained control of financial institutions through bribery, and illegally withdrew credit and insurance funds. Xu Jiayin also used his position to facilitate organizational financial fraud and usurped the company's assets in the name of dividends. The court found that the relevant acts seriously disrupted the order of the market economy, that the amount of the crime was particularly huge, the circumstances were particularly egregious, and that they were severely punished according to law. On the same day, two courts in Shenzhen also ruled on cases involving Evergrande involving illegal absorption of public deposits and fund-raising fraud. 56 people, including Zhen Litao, Ke Peng, Xu Tenghe, and Xu Zhijian, were sentenced to fixed-term sentences ranging from 18 years to 1 year and 10 months, as well as fines or confiscation of property.

South Korea's QFI has bought Changxin Technology

Comparatively, data from SeiBro, a subsidiary of the Korea Securities Depository and Settlement Institute (KSD), shows that as of August 18, the A-share that Korean investors have bought the most in the past month is a mysterious stock. Meanwhile, South Korean investors bought this stock for a net amount of US$4532.233 million (approximately RMB 3075.3 million). Extending the period to the past three months, this stock is still at the top of the ranking of net purchases of A-shares by Korean investors. Korea Securities Companies must submit settlement instructions to KSD when trading these securities as an Qualified Foreign Investor (QFI). However, you must use an ISIN code to submit a settlement order. Therefore, the relevant Korean securities company chose to temporarily use a temporary virtual code, and the name of the security is displayed according to the virtual ISIN. A search of SeiBro revealed that as of July 28, Changxin Technology had appeared among the stocks with the highest net purchase amount by Korean investors in the previous week. As of July 27, Changxin Technology did not appear on the list of the top 50 A-shares by Korean investors in the previous week's net purchase amount (it is also possible that Korean investors have bought, but Changxin Technology has not entered the list of the top 50 A-shares by net purchase amount). This indicates that South Korean investors began buying as late as July 28, the second day after Changxin Technology went public.

Bloomberg: Changjiang Storage completes listing guidance or becomes China's next major chip IPO

Comparative news, according to Bloomberg reports, Chinese memory chip manufacturer Changjiang Storage (YMTC) has completed listing guidance work and is moving further ahead of entering the A-share market. According to the China Securities Regulatory Commission website, Changjiang Storage has completed pre-listing counseling and has been determined to have the corporate governance structure, financial foundation and internal control system required for listed companies. The market believes that YMTC is expected to replicate the capital market path of competitor Changxin Storage (CXMT), expand production capacity through IPO financing, and help China promote the autonomy of the semiconductor industry. Previously, Changxin Storage completed the second-largest IPO in mainland China, raising about 66.6 billion yuan. After listing, its stock price soared, and at one point it became one of the listed companies with the highest market capitalization in China. Both YMTC and CXMT are important companies in China's independent semiconductor supply chain. As demand for AI drives the tight supply of global memory chips, the two companies have received attention from the capital market, and related chip industry chain stocks have recently risen sharply. According to reports, Changjiang Storage's flash memory shipments in the second quarter of this year surpassed Japan's Kioxia (Kioxia) for the first time, becoming the third largest NAND flash memory supplier in the world, and further narrowing the market gap with Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix. However, the news that YMTC is moving ahead with its IPO has also raised concerns about liquidity in the market. Some investors believe that the listing of large technology companies may divert market capital, putting pressure on the short-term performance of technology stocks. On Wednesday, the SSE Science Innovation 50 Index fell 6.9%, the biggest drop in nearly a month.
