Today I will show you the following picture! This picture is a prank made by American investors themselves. Why? Because the US stock market fell in the early hours of this morning is unbearable!
Now talk about the current economic situation in the United States is really not a joke, the crisis will be detonated at any time, cool.
Since entering 2022, the cumulative decline of the US stock market in six months has exceeded 30%, coupled with the rapid evaporation in a few hours in the early hours of this morning, 2.3 trillion US dollars, which is converted into 15 trillion yuan, "blood flowing into a river", while the DEBT of the US government has exceeded 21 trillion US dollars.
30% is it painless or itchy? Although the current 30 points are only a decline, but since this year, the United States has been a large number of star companies technology giants have suffered 40 points, 50 points, or even 70%, 80% of the heavy damage, this set of data has been very scary, it is conceivable that the US economy has been stretched, shaky.
What exactly is the situation in the US economy, and will it drag the mainland into the water?
A few days ago, the United States released the latest data on the Inflation Index for May, 8.6%, a new high in 40 years, and as soon as this data came out, many people were frightened and their hearts were half cold.
At this time, the domestic No. 95 gasoline is about to rise historically, breaking through the ten yuan mark, why? It is because the international oil price can not be stopped, this year has risen four times, 80, 100, 120 to challenge the record high. Even now that the price of oil has risen, the freight, vegetable and fruit prices will also rise together, and the cost of living will increase, inevitably falling into a vicious circle.
Although the mainland can control 2.1% of the total because of its large output, compared with their 8.6%, it is a high judgment. But look at the items in the U.S. CPI basket, cars, electricity bills from last year to this year, the rise is getting sharper and stronger, and the concern is to what extent it will rise, no one knows. At the same time, steel and aluminum products in the United States will also face the problem of rising prices and unemployment of more than 100,000 people.
So at this time, the Fed has to make a decision at this time, which one to choose between prices and the stock market! In the financial market, having money can make the ghost grind, and the looser the currency risk, the more violent the rise; But prices are completely different, the more money is flooded, the more expensive the price, the same goods, the higher the price, will inadvertently push up inflation.
Therefore, now the world's financial institutions believe that the Fed must suppress inflation as soon as possible by raising interest rates sharply, the Fed raises interest rates, and international capital begins to flow back, which is the logic of financial wars. As the saying goes: fish and bear paws cannot be combined.
Whether the Fed will choose to continue to raise interest rates sharply to suppress the current inflation problem will not be commented on for the time being, because the key depends on the early morning of Thursday, the Fed announced their latest interest rate decision. The current situation is that the world's major institutions and investment giants are choosing a defensive posture and rapidly cashing out.
As for the US interest rate hike, will it affect the mainland in the end? Perhaps on the contrary, the worse the overseas financial markets, the more likely it is that the cautious big money will flow into countries with loose money and economic recovery, such as China!
