Recently softened US labor data, coupled with a more dovish stance from the US Federal Reserve, is fueling an expedited US rate cut cycle that is expected to commence as early as September. High Dividend Strategy continues to stand out amid market uncertainty for its combination of elevated dividend yields and reduced volatility, and we are seeing more investor interests in the product lately. For onshore China, the low bank deposit rate and bond yield could potentially prompt more household savings into equity market, and equity income products could be among the first to benefit.
