【新興市場債券】2021年4月基金評論

市場現況:

4月份,全球經濟狀況快速改善,大部分的風險資產均呈正報酬。同時,美國公債殖利率停止上升,使新興市場債券和貨幣有所支撐。本基金領先基準指數,該綜合指數由1/3摩根全球新興市場債券指數,1/3摩根新興市場公司債多元分散指數和1/3摩根新興市場政府債券指數組成。

當地貨幣主權債券表現最強勁(按美元計算,為2.3%),其次是美元主權債。新興市場公司債在第一季表現良好後,四月表現不佳。本基金四月表現出色,主要因為比基準指標多加碼高收益債。

隨著本月美國公債和美元匯率的回落,國家相關的議題在市場中有更大的影響力。在厄瓜多,一位市場派的候選人在厄瓜多總統大選中獲勝,使陷入困境的厄瓜多政府公債在本月內有40%的報酬。在美國,拜登政府宣布對俄羅斯債務的新制裁,但制裁僅限於新發行的當地債券,市場反應相當平淡。鑑於該國的財政和經常帳餘額充沛及資產負債表,我們對自己的部位(我們在當地最大的持倉之一)感到滿意。

展望未來,在近期表現良好之後,我們將密切注意高收益債的估值,如果我們認為估值變得昂貴,將進一步減少部位。我們可能希望用當地貨幣部位取代它們,包括特定公司債或評級較高的主權債。

部位調整:

基金部位沒有重大調整。而我們在秘魯大選前對部分秘魯新索爾進行避險,而這使本基金的當地貨幣部位回到與基準指標相近的中性配置。

我們認為,鑑於高收益債持續上漲,一些BB、B評級的發債公司/國家估值逐漸降低。一段時間以來,我們一直加碼高收益債(相對於投資級債),但已經開始選擇性降低風險。本月我們賣出了在牙買加,巴哈馬,馬斯喀特銀行和阿聯酋的房地產開發商MAF的部位。

另外,我們確實在此過程中買入一些高收益債,包括斯普斯卡共和國(波士尼亞的一個地區),我們認為這能增加投組多元性。我們還買入了喬治亞和貝里斯的政府公債;貝里斯的債券可能需要重組,但目前殖利率約為16%,我們認為具有潛在的上漲空間。土耳其方面,由於對該國持續存在擔憂,我們減少土耳其里拉的部位。我們相信下次央行會議將是新任行長的重要考驗。最後,4月份中國公司債市場進一步動盪。在中國房地產開發商禹州集團第一季業績不佳之後,我們賣出了該部位,將資金留給更好的機會。
