回复 744# 过路客 的帖子
恶性通胀有一个大国有典型的例子。
我记得很多年前,俄罗斯在耶尔辛推动经济改革的年代,
造成货币贬值,物价上涨很厉害。
有一张印象深刻的图片,是居民不要钞票,然后换取面包。
那段过去,实在不容易。可是俄罗斯还是捱过来了。
从列宁的第一个共产国,开展到了冷战时代,然后走向资本主义,直选总统,
再来到了现在金砖四国的位置。俄罗斯的人民,过去100年经历了不少血汗史。
很可惜,他们今天还要面对百年一见的金融风暴。
相比起来,大马的人民属于安逸了。 |

如今市场坏消息不断传出,为何还有投资者不断进场?
除了受到一些资深投资者的影响(Warren Buffett、Jeremy Grantham 等人已经开始唱好,要和他们唱反调,压力真的很大,哈哈),一些投资者、分析家,开始只往观察利好因素。
这些投资者,是断章取义、钻牛角尖,还是观察入微?
是长期投资,还是抄底投机?
这个很难说。
除了部分公司业绩没受影响(属于好消息),最近能让投资者提起抄底意愿的,大概是美国国会拯救汽车企业,还有另一则是 11月的房屋拍卖下跌趋势的新闻。
也许不久,本地报纸也会报导这个新闻,意图让投资者对市场重试信心。(市场太多不利因素,报业这么做,无可厚非。但是,这种尽量报喜不报忧的做法,对投资者而言,未必是好事。)
不要紧,我们自己来判断。
其实 11月的是表面数据,如果再思考深一层,也许能明白为何 11月的数据比 10月稍低。
在10月,美国政府已经把降低房屋被拍卖列为其中一个首要目标。因此,除了降低利率等政策,美国房产机构,让购屋者重新拟定贷款(有点类似本地的 refinance),把利率降低,或把贷款延长,总之,目的是尽可能不让贷款违约。
基于部分面对经济困境的贷款者能重获新贷款条约。所以,11月份的拍卖率下降,不算意外。
这个数据其实来自 realtytrac 网站。去它的姐妹 blog,却发现一个这样的文章。
November Foreclosures: Naughty or Nice?
http://www.foreclosurepulse.com/blogs/mainblog/archive/2008/12/10/november-foreclosures-naughty-or-nice.aspx
随便翻译。
But there are some ominous signs on the horizon that the decrease may simply be the calm before the storm.
但市场已经显现一些不详的征兆。让这个数据的下跌,看起来像暴风雨前的平静。
“Delinquencies on loans not yet in the foreclosure process jumped to nearly 7 percent in the third quarter, a record high, according to the Mortgage Bankers Association,” said James J. Saccacio, chief executive officer at RealtyTrac. ”And more than half of the homeowners who received loan modifications to reduce monthly mortgage payments in the first half of 2008 are already delinquent on their loans again, according to the U.S. Office of Thrift Supervision. Many of these delinquencies could turn into foreclosures next year.”
无法偿还贷款,却还未进入拍卖程序,在第三季度突增 7%,这是一个新高。
在2008首半年,过半重新拟定房屋贷款条文以减少月供款项的贷款者,再度面对房屋贷款没法偿还的问题。这些没法偿还贷款者,相当多人可能在明年将面对房屋被拍卖问题。
这个并非悲观。我们只是尽可能找出数据背后的真相。也许市场会有期待乐观消息的投资者,相信这个喜讯,但是就算要乐观,我们还是继续保持谨慎式地乐观,比较妥当。 |

说真,现在的美国,债务很高,利用印钞票来解决问题。感觉有点像当时的苏联。
不过,美国经济体系非常坚固。它不会瓦解。但是,全球可能因为美国的做法而让经济危机继续恶化。
一直减利率、大量印钞票。
那天,和去了美国定居的朋友网上聊天,我们开玩笑说,感觉上,好像世界末日要来了。 |

Ben Stein有点急躁。。。
Bail Out Detroit – Now
by Ben Stein
Posted on Tuesday, December 9, 2008, 12:00AM
Usually this column is about finance. It usually is an attempt to help the reader make money and have a more comfortable life. I am well aware that I have made a lot of mistakes and that in the short run many of my suggestions have turned out badly. Believe me, I am sorry. I still believe that in the long run the investment ideas will do well, but I am terribly sad that people's hopes have been disappointed in the short run.
My best guess is that we are in a panic of sellers and market manipulators and that we will recover within a few years, but I base this on history. We may have moved into a new phase where history is irrelevant. I would be surprised if that were so, since it's never been true before, but one never knows.
However, today, let's talk about the American auto companies. They need a bailout from us taxpayers, and they have to get it yesterday. Here's why
First, we are on thin ice economically. To allow our largest heavy industrial component to fail at this delicate moment is suicidal. To put a couple of million more Americans into unemployment is just not sensible. Mr. Barack Obama is talking about public works projects to employ hundreds of thousands of Americans -bridge building, school building, airport building. These projects take time to start, disrupt local community life, and are famously wasteful.
Why not be smart about it and NOT LET AMERICANS GET UNEMPLOYED IN THE FIRST PLACE? (Please pardon the shouting.) There are millions of Americans already hard at work making great American made cars and trucks. Why not keep them on the job? Wouldn't that be smarter than allowing the whole upper Midwest to fall into oblivion and then rescue it over a fifty year period?
Second, I get sick when I hear about how this or that professor says we cannot have bailouts in a free market. Really? How about the bailouts the professors get because gifts to colleges are tax free? How about the bailout they get because if they have to teach six hours a week they feel overwhelmed, while the guy on the line in Dearborn works a grueling forty and doesn't whine about it?
Somehow, we can give bailouts to investment banks where the top dogs make hundreds of millions a year for running the company into the ditch and wrecking the whole credit picture in America. Somehow we can have bailouts for Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, whose bosses were trading on the credit of the taxpayers to make themselves rich while pumping up a serious housing bubble.
Amazingly, we can have whole fleets of C-130's fly to remote areas of Iraq and Afghanistan with pallets of hundred dollar bills piled from floor to ceiling. Then we can pass them out to warlords who make tea for our soldiers one hour and blow their guts out the next. We can send CIA operatives into Somalia and give millions, maybe hundreds of millions, to warlords to fight other killers.
But we cannot find it in our hearts to save our fellow Americans in Ohio and Michigan and Indiana who make the cars and trucks that about half of us buy? We can send billions to Germany and Japan to bail them out after they bombed us and killed our POWs and killed six million Jews. But we cannot help the children and grandchildren of the men and women who fought our war and made us the arsenal of democracy?
Something is very wrong here.
And please don't tell me how GM and Ford and Chrysler have made bad cars that people don't want. I drive only American cars, only GM cars actually, and they are the best, coolest cars I have ever driven: my 1962 Red Corvette, my mighty Cadillacs whose potent engines and super brakes have saved my life many times on the freeway. Yes, the cool people in DC and New York don't drive American cars. But a lot of other good people do and we love them. And my Cadillac dealer down here in the desert, Jessup Motors, gives me a lot better service than my Mercedes, Porsche, BMW, Jaguar, or Acura dealers ever did. I would trust my life to Detroit iron any time.
And why are we so angry at the car companies' executives? They get miserable pay by Wall Street standards and have much harder jobs. Why are we so angry at the unions? They negotiated their deals in good faith. It's not their fault that roller coaster gasoline prices messed up their world. They are our brothers and sisters. They fight our wars. They maintain our middle class lives. Maybe they get paid a lot, but they have been giving back for years. When will it ever be enough? And what about the retirees? They get the benefits they were promised. If those can be taken away, then whose benefits are safe? And do you think it will be cheaper if the government takes on those costs directly?
Let's stop the Depression before it starts. Let's show some fairness and good faith to our own. Let's bail out the Big Three, help them slim down, shape up, and keep making great cars and trucks. The Big Three are us and if we cannot help ourselves, who can we help?

Bail Out Detroit – Now
by Ben Stein
他从来只叫人买进。
很多人知道,他已经全服财产在股市里面。所以此时一定异常急躁。
如果汽车业不被担保,更多人失业,预料对股市不利。美国股市接近收市,市场突然传来可能投票不过关的消息。到了美国晚上10点,正式发布不足60票,不过关消息。
讽刺的是,投反对票的,主要来自共和党。
总统竞选时,ben stein 一直评击民主党。华尔街是民主党的 fans。民主党当然撑他们。这个时候,不知道ben stein 会不会后悔当初为共和党这么卖力。
亚洲股市率先下跌。
没投资股市的老百姓,当然不希望政府救车厂。单看共和党的传统强区,就知道他们是代表什么样的美国社会。
说实在的,共和党的反对,其实也非没有道理。
担保汽车业,股市被投机者暂时推上。没几个月,那些几百亿可能如流水般浪费掉。汽车业再度传来问题。到时候股市下跌可能更严重。
GM、Chrysler 已经说得很明了(ford 说自己问题没那么严重,不知道背后有无自己的议程呢?)。这个月要 40亿,下个月也要 40亿。不是为了刺激车厂,而是为了救债务。
难怪共和党没把握。因此要这些车厂作出保证,如保证减少债务、或达到日产车厂的劳资条件等等。
现在车厂连自救都有问题了,哪里还能保证什么?车厂只是不想破产!
不过,民主党担心,如果不救车厂,更多人失业,情况更糟糕。
眼前情况是,救也死,不救也死。
这个还只是冰山一角,美国的汽车工业。
(不过,本地经济体系“强壮”,不受影响。以前常听说外国投资机构加码本地公司,报纸常有新闻。现在,一些公司受投资机构调低预测,股价不跌反升。本地股市很厉害,“脱钩”了。) |

回复 753# 过路客 的帖子
我国股市交易量越来越少,政府自己跟自己玩。
不管美国政府会不会bailout汽车工业,多余的生产力总是要被驱除的,一些工厂被关闭,员工失业的情况是不能避免(现在这时候要叫谁来买美国车??)。
PS:我想能亲眼看到GM和Chrysler破产是很值得期待的。。。 |

PS:我想 ...
有时候,我觉得是我国生活太过悠闲,好像与世隔绝。
昨天到某广场,虽然知道是雪州假日,想到下午时分应该不多人。但该处停车场前大塞车,全部停车场亮红灯(表示全部 full)。好可怕。结果我打消念头,掉头回家去。
我问一些堂、表,他们说,公司没问题,感受不到经济风暴。
形成一个很奇怪的现象。
购物广场人山人海,太拥挤。好多只是 window shopping,顶多消费于餐食、娱乐。百货业的购买力已经下跌。
工厂开始减产,可是好多在市中心工作的,还期待公司花红,准备年尾去哪里旅行。
一些经济学家,前来本地给讲座。每次记者必定问这个问题,我国未来经济展望如何。
这些经济学家总是暗示,本地经济不可能脱钩的。安哥哥受国外电视媒体访问,还大力抨击政府封盖经济实施,把国人蒙在鼓里。
谁对、谁错,日后自有分晓。 |

过路客兄
星洲日报财经版这个星期有一系列报道关于棕油原产品的报道
今天早上我翻开报纸,想起了一个困扰我已久的疑问
冒昧请教
我记得在今年年头国际石油价格布高涨达每桶150美金的时候
看过一个文章,里头的内容大约是说美元下跌是原产品例如石油上涨的原因,也就是说美元跟原产品的关系是相对的。
我想问的是如果排除原产品供应与需求的关系
那么美元的贬值造成原产品上涨的原因是什么?
1)美元贬值,所以手里头的美金越来越不值钱,所以就拿去投资原产品,造成热钱涌入原产品市场,所以原产品价格步步高升。(当然这个道理也可以同样用于降利率的时候,钱放银行利息太低,所以热钱流入原产品市场),是这样的吗?
2)原产品是与美元挂价,所以。。。。想不透了,还有什么特别的原因造成美元贬值造成原产品上涨?
当然,最近的原产品价格的下滑是美元升值跟需求下滑同时候发生,所以跌幅惨重,对吗?
我主要的问题是为什么美元跟原产品的关系是相对的?是像我在1)里头的原因还有其他的原因吗?
