On August 5, the United States suddenly broke out into a stock market crash, and the three major stock indexes collectively opened lower, with the Dow Jones opening down 2.69%, the S&P 500 down 4.15%, and the Nasdaq down 6.33%. Among the individual stocks, Supermicro Computer fell 14%, Nvidia fell 14%, Tesla fell 10%, Citigroup fell 7%, Goldman Sachs fell 5%, United States Bank fell 4%, and Apple fell nearly 10%, these seven companies were called the "Big Seven" of U.S. stocks by United States, and the index fell 9% as a whole, the largest decline since 2015.
You must know that the combined market value of United States seven giant companies is almost 15 trillion, and the index fell by 9%, which is equivalent to 1.35 trillion. Many people know that the wealth of the middle class in our country is mainly in houses, and the main wealth of United States is in the stock market. The United States interest rate hike cycle is understood by some people as a financial war against China, so to speak, but it is also a financial war against the world, to harvest the world's wealth.
United States owes 35 trillion U.S. debts, how can this hole be plugged? It needs a large amount of external hot money to undertake, and how to attract hot money in? It is to keep interest rates high and attract all the world's money to United States to invest. But because of the high interest rate, the United States also has to pay a huge amount of interest on U.S. bonds. In terms of whether to choose to pay high interest or attract hot money in, the United States chose the latter, the main purpose is to blow up the economies of all countries in the world, so that United States can operate, once again use the dollar as the world's reserve currency, go overseas to buy cheap assets, a round, the United States economic crisis self-solved.
Therefore, we see that in this round of United States interest rate hike cycle, many countries' economies are on the verge of bankruptcy, and Germany's economy is experiencing negative growth; In order to stimulate the economy, Japan has maintained zero interest rates for a long time; The economies of United Kingdom, Genan and Estonia are on the verge of bankruptcy; Argentina went bankrupt outright. Our real estate prices have fallen by more than 30% on average, and even by more than 40% in some areas, although we have our own de-bubble component, but it has really shrunk the wealth of our middle class by more than 30%. It's just that we carried it down and did not let the real estate collapse, and the big country that the United States wanted to harvest the most did not succeed.
So why doesn't the United States continue to raise interest rates? What about continuing to blow up the economies of various countries? If it can't be moved, first of all, the United States's own banks can't bear it, and if it continues, a large number of banks in the United States will go bankrupt; Secondly, the interest owed on so many U.S. bonds has to be repaid, and United States have already relied on the debt several times, and they are almost unable to repay.
On the 5th, Goldman Sachs predicted in its latest report that the Fed will cut interest rates by 25 basis points in September, November and December, but if the August employment data does not perform well, it may need to cut interest rates by 50 basis points in September. If United States enters a cycle of interest rate cuts, it basically declares United States end of this round of financial war.
Recently, the earnings report revealed that Buffett retreated, and the company significantly reduced its stake in Apple from 789 million shares in the first quarter to about 400 million shares in the second quarter, a drop of nearly 50%. What does it mean that he now has more than $270 billion in cash in his corporate account? It is clear that he is waiting for United States' assets to plummet and United States itself.
This round of financial war is a United States failure for the big powers, not only will it not be harvested, but in the future, a large amount of capital will flow out United States take refuge in China. At this time United States is still preparing for a big war in the Middle East, and in the face of the United States that is about to enter the channel of declining returns, and the more stable China, where will Middle Eastern capital go? It's definitely going to be a safer place. #爆料#
