几则新闻的思索

(2012-05-25 17:40:11) 下一个

近期的消息拣我认为最要紧的琢磨琢磨:

1. JPMorgan报衍生物仓位亏损,市场传闻说仓位未平,潜在亏损不止自曝的20亿;

2. 美国联邦政府通过法令,要求美联储必要时救助期货交易所:

on Tuesday Team Obama took its first formal steps toward putting taxpayers behind Wall Street derivatives trading -- not behind banks that might make mistakes in derivatives markets, but behind the trading itself. 。。。

Specifically, the law authorizes the Federal Reserve to provide "discount and borrowing privileges" to clearinghouses in emergencies. Traditionally the ability to borrow from the Fed's discount window was reserved for banks, but the new law made clear that a clearinghouse receiving assistance was not required to "be or become a bank or bank holding company." To get help, they only needed to be deemed "systemically important" by the new Financial Stability Oversight Council chaired by the Treasury Secretary.

...
We're told that the clearinghouses of Chicago's CME Group and Atlanta-based Intercontinental Exchange were voted systemic this week, and rumor has it that the council may even designate London-based LCH.Clearnet as critical to the U.S. financial system. http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052702304840904577422393164106270.html

哈哈,美国的纳税人成了期货市场,衍生物市场的终极救助者了,可喜可贺!无风不起浪,交易市场本身有问题了??? 真好像到处失火的架势。

3.经过三年调查后,证监会宣布,雷曼倒闭事件,未发现违规违法行为。

刑不上大夫呼? 官官相护呼?三权鼎立? 鼎立个屁,我看是狼狈为奸。

4. 美国财政部给与中国人民银行国债直销通道:中国人民银行不必通过银行与券商,可与联储和财政部直接交易美国国债: http://www.reuters.com/article/2012/05/21/us-usa-treasuries-china-idUSBRE84K11720120521

很自然地要问,为什么?

中国是美国最的大债主,中国政府对待美国国债的态度,就是对美国国债最重要的,最具市场价值的信用评级。

如果中国政府通过券商卖出美国国债,那么极易引发美国国债市场沽空压力,造成恐慌从而引发崩盘,美元大厦就此倒塌。这对中国也极为不利,因为手上持有太多的美国国债。所以,中国政府卖出美债的隐蔽性至关重要。

那么,是否是为了隐蔽中国政府购买美债呢?答案是否定的。

中国购买美债多年了,也已经是最大的债主(美联储除外)。继续购买,不会对市场有什么意外冲击。 对市场冲击最具效果的,一是不期然的突发因素, 二是最大的大户开始改变方向。

这个安排,为的是掩护中国政府这个美债大户由净买家变为净买家这个变化。当然从美国来讲,不是为了维护中国的利益,而是为了维护美国国债市场的稳定。

美元体系,我再给它三年时间。
