China will start selling the first batch of its 1 trillion yuan ($138 billion) of ultra-long special sovereign bondsthis week, as officials ramp up effortsto support the world's No. 2 economy. The central government will begin a flurry of such sales this year by issuing 40 billion yuan of 30-year bonds Friday, according to a notice by the Ministry of Finance. That ended months of speculationover when the bonds -- the fourth of their kind in 26 years -- would be rolled out, after a broad plan was announced in March. The boost to gross domestic product could be as much as 1 percentage point, said Xing Zhaopeng at Australia & New Zealand Banking Group. Bonds with 20-year and 50-year tenors will be offered from May 24 and June 14, respectively.

本周，中国将开始发行首批规模为1万亿元人民币（合1380亿美元）的超长期特别国债，以加大对这一世界第二大经济体的支持力度。根据财政部的一份公告，中央政府将于周五率先发行规模为400亿元人民币的30年期债券，从而开启今年的债券发行潮。而这也标志着人们数月来对这一中国26年来第四次发行的超长期国债的具体发行时间的猜测的终结。此前，在今年的3月份，官方曾宣布了一项相关的宏观计划。澳新银行的邢兆鹏表示，此举对国内生产总值的提振可能高达1个百分点。而20年期和50年期的债券，将分别于5月24日和6月14日发行。

Bloomberg reported the special sovereign bonds sale earlier Monday. The issuancewill include 300 billion yuan of 20-year bonds, 600 billion yuan of 30-year notes and 100 billion yuan in the 50-year tenor, according to people familiar with the matter. Investors responded positively to the bond sales news, with the benchmarkCSI 300 Index of onshore shares paring an earlier loss of 0.9% to close almost flat. Ding Shuang, chief economist for Greater China and North Asia at Standard Chartered Plc, forecast a 25-basis point reduction to the RRR to coincide withthe bond sale, and saw an increased chance of a loan prime ratecut.

彭博社在周一早些时候对此次特别国债的发行进行了报道。据知情人士透露，此次发行的国债将包括规模为3000亿元人民币的20年期债券、规模为6000亿元人民币的30年期债券和规模为1000亿元人民币的50年期债券。投资者对债券发行的消息反应积极，基准的沪深300指数抹去了之前0.9%的跌幅，收盘几乎持平。渣打银行大中华及北亚首席经济师丁爽预计，中国央行将在发行债券的同时下调存款准备金率25个基点，并认为下调贷款基础利率的可能性加大。
