Simply explained as convertible corporate bonds, listed companies issue corporate bonds, stating that creditors (that is, bond investors) can exchange the bonds for shares of a company after holding them for a period of time (this is called lock-up period). The creditor suddenly became the owner of the shareholder status. The conversion ratio is calculated by dividing the face value of the bond by a specific conversion price. For example, the face value of bonds is 65,438+000,000 yuan, which can be converted into 2000 shares, that is, 20 lots, divided by the conversion price in 50 yuan.

If you really want to hold shares in the company, just go to the market and buy them at the price of 40 yuan, not at the cost price of 50 yuan. This situation, we call it no conversion value. This kind of convertible bond is called sky-high convertible bond.

This is called downlink protection.

Therefore, convertible bonds have dual personalities in the market. When the stock price rises very high, the share of convertible bonds is particularly heavy, and its Delta value is almost equal to 1, that is, when the stock price rises by one yuan, it can also rise by nearly one yuan. However, when the underlying stock price falls sharply, the bond personality of convertible bonds will be revealed, so that investors can still get debt interest and protect investors.

However, in order to improve the investment income of convertible bonds, investors should choose appropriate investment strategies and investment opportunities according to their own capital and required income level.

(A) the basic strategy of convertible bond investment

Investors should focus on predicting the future performance and cash flow of the issuing company and determining the investment varieties of convertible bonds according to the solvency, industry status, development strategy and comprehensive fundamental factors such as finance, products, management, technology and market.

One is prudent investment, that is, investing in convertible bonds whose market price is close to the value of the bond itself, and obtaining stable investment income under the premise of effectively controlling investment risks;

Second, aggressive investment, that is, convertible bonds with good investment fundamentals, growth and favorable conversion price correction conditions, can obtain investment income not lower than the benchmark stock under the premise of relatively low risk;

The third is to find arbitrage opportunities, that is, there is a certain inefficiency in the market, and arbitrage is carried out when the market price of convertible bonds is lower than the conversion price.

(B) the investment strategy of convertible bonds at different prices

Convertible bonds will show different characteristics at different price points. Therefore, investors should treat convertible bonds with different prices differently.

First, high-priced convertible bonds with a bond premium of over 30%. This convertible bond has a large downside, but if investors are optimistic about their benchmark stocks, they can invest in this convertible bond. Because on the one hand, the handling fee of convertible bonds is lower than that of stocks, which can reduce the transaction cost of investors; On the other hand, if convertible bonds are held for a long time, they can earn certain interest income. In addition, in the case of a long-term decline in the stock market, convertible bonds also have certain resilience. Therefore, the future earnings of such convertible bonds still have a comparative advantage over ordinary stocks.

Second, the bond premium 15% to 30% of the medium-priced convertible bonds. This kind of convertible bonds is moderate, and the conversion value is much lower than its market price. When the stock market rises, the gains are relatively slow; But when the stock market falls, its losses will be smaller. When investing in this kind of convertible bonds, we can pay more attention to convertible bonds with relatively low conversion premium rate and large fluctuation of benchmark stocks.

Third, low-priced convertible bonds with a bond premium below 15%. This kind of convertible bonds has strong debt and limited downside. Generally speaking, there will be no big losses in medium and long-term investment, and it is very likely to share the gains from the stock market rise in the future. This convertible bond is more suitable for low-risk investors who expect to benefit from medium and long-term investments. (C) the timing strategy of convertible bond investment

The debt service characteristics of convertible bonds ensure stable income; The characteristics of being convertible into stocks provide opportunities for obtaining higher returns. Generally speaking, according to the market situation, convertible bonds can be operated in three ways:

First, when the stock market is improving, the characteristics of convertible bonds are more obvious, and the market pricing considers stocks more; When the price of convertible bonds rises with the rise of the stock market and exceeds its original cost price, the holder should throw out convertible bonds to directly obtain the spread income.

Second, when the stock market turns from weak to strong, or the performance of the company issuing convertible bonds turns better, and its share price is expected to rise sharply, investors can convert convertible bonds into stocks at the conversion price to enjoy the company's better performance dividends or the gains from stock climbing.

Third, when the stock market is depressed, the characteristics of convertible bonds are more obvious, and the market pricing considers debt more; The prices of convertible bonds and benchmark stocks both fell, so it is not appropriate to sell convertible bonds and convert them into stocks. Investors should keep convertible bonds in order to obtain fixed due principal and interest income.
