Core Viewpoint - The research paper explores how carbon reduction support tools under China's "dual carbon" goals can enhance the market value of commercial banks while fulfilling their environmental responsibilities [2][5]. Group 1: Research Framework and Background - The study employs a "signal transmission - reputation accumulation - risk governance" three-dimensional analysis framework to explain how structural monetary policy tools reshape the value creation logic of commercial banks [2][4]. - Green finance is highlighted as a bridge for integrating environmental governance with economic growth, with commercial banks playing a crucial role in green credit practices [2]. Group 2: Impact of Carbon Reduction Support Tools - The introduction of carbon reduction support tools by the People's Bank of China has linked low-interest re-lending funds directly to banks' green loan performance, aiming to guide financial resources towards green low-carbon sectors [2][5]. - The research indicates that these tools effectively enhance banks' market value through three key mechanisms: signal transmission, market reputation, and risk governance [5]. Group 3: Empirical Analysis - The first part of the empirical analysis uses a difference-in-differences model with data from 42 A-share listed commercial banks between 2020 and Q1 2023, finding that carbon reduction loans significantly increase banks' market value [6]. - The second part validates the effectiveness of the three mechanisms: - The signal transmission effect is evidenced by increased stock liquidity due to reduced information asymmetry [7]. - The market reputation effect is shown through increased positive discussions and interactions on social media platforms following banks' participation in carbon reduction loans [7]. - The risk governance effect is demonstrated by improved liquidity and risk resistance in banks that participated in the carbon reduction support tools [7]. Group 4: Policy Implications - The study suggests that carbon reduction loans in energy-saving and clean energy sectors have the most significant impact on enhancing banks' market value, indicating a need for regulatory focus in future policy designs [7]. - It also notes that carbon reduction loans, supported by low-interest central bank funds, have a more pronounced effect on banks' market value compared to regular green loans, recommending an expansion of such tools' application [7].

Core Viewpoint - The article emphasizes the interdependent relationship between investment and consumption, arguing that effective fiscal policy should focus on both aspects to stimulate economic growth and meet human needs [4][7][10]. Group 1: Investment and Consumption Dynamics - Investment and consumption are two sides of the same coin, and both are essential for expanding total demand [5][7]. - Government spending should prioritize the expansion of total demand, with a balanced focus on both investment and consumption [5][7]. - The current economic environment shows weak private investment growth, while government spending is more focused on investment rather than consumption [5][7]. Group 2: The Role of Government Spending - Government spending has become increasingly recognized as an endogenous factor in the economy, playing a crucial role in macroeconomic regulation [8]. - The effectiveness of government spending is hindered by issues such as mismatched flows, idle funds, and uncertainty in spending responsibilities [8]. - The article highlights the need for a structural reform in fiscal policy to enhance the effectiveness of government spending [3][15]. Group 3: Human-Centric Logic - The article advocates for a shift from a material-based logic to a human-centric logic in economic development and fiscal policy [10][12]. - Government investment and consumption should be designed around human needs, particularly focusing on the demands of different regional groups [10][12]. - The need for social mobility and equity is emphasized, particularly in addressing the urban-rural divide and facilitating the transition of rural populations to urban settings [11][13]. Group 4: Central-Local Fiscal Relations - The article discusses the significant reliance on local government finances for macroeconomic regulation, highlighting the imbalances in central-local fiscal relations [14][15]. - Local government spending accounts for a substantial portion of total government expenditure, which affects the overall effectiveness of fiscal policy [15]. - The need for reform in central-local fiscal relations is deemed urgent to enhance the coordination between investment and consumption [15].

白银—制钱"双重货币本位制 自明末"一条鞭法"开始，中国开始广泛使用白银作为流通货币，到了清朝初期，白银已经成为主要的官 方货币，用于支付赋税或者完成跨省大规模交易；另一方面，政府铸造的制钱，则用于地方的小额零售 交易；在西南省份以及核心省区的某些边陲地区，由于运输上的花费，民间银两的使用甚至多于制钱。 整体而言，近代中国虽然存在着许多区域经济体，但白银好像血液系统一样将这些区域经济连成一体。 在"白银—制钱"的双重本位制下，19世纪前期，市场供应的白银价格相对于政府铸造的制钱波动剧烈， 最高增加了2.5倍，形成了"银贵钱贱危机"，对中国的经济社会造成了深刻的影响。 究其原因，近代中国流通的白银主要依赖于国外输入，因而不可避免地受到国际冲击的影响。1540年左 右，日本开始向中国出口白银，用以交换中国的丝绸、衣服、漆器等物品。但由于矿山的损耗，日本出 口到中国的白银在17世纪已经逐渐减少；与此同时，来自拉美的白银开始大量涌入中国。到了18世纪， 英国成为将拉丁美洲白银输往中国最重要的欧洲国家。 根据严中平在《中国近代经济史统计资料选辑》中的数据，由于茶叶在英国的普遍饮用，中国的茶叶是 18世纪中国对英出口贸易 ...

Group 3: Global Asset Allocation Strategy - The S&P 500's forward P/E ratio remains high at 29, with tech giants at historical valuation premiums, suggesting a need to reduce exposure to US equities [9]. - The 10-year US Treasury yield has rebounded to 4.5%, with significant rollover pressures from maturing debt, leading to a recommendation to avoid short-term volatility risks in US Treasuries [9]. - Japanese assets are being revalued, with a 60% increase in core Tokyo property prices over three years, and a high employment rate among graduates attracting middle-class families [9]. Group 4: Investment Strategy Recommendations - In the current transition period, the recommended asset allocation includes 15% in insurance products, 5.2% yield Asian dollar bonds, and a focus on equities with 40% in Hong Kong stocks, 25% in Japanese stocks, and 20% in high-dividend A-shares [11]. - Alternative assets should include 10% in gold and 5% in Bitcoin, with a strategy to increase holdings in the Chinese yuan and yen while reducing US dollar exposure to below 30% [11].

当地时间5月29日，美国联邦巡回上诉法院批准特朗普政府的请求，暂时搁置美国国际贸易法院此前作 出的禁止执行特朗普政府依据《国际紧急经济权力法》对多国加征关税措施的行政令的裁决。 联邦巡回上诉法院在裁决书中指出，美国政府的请求已获批准，在本法院审议相关动议文件期间，美国 国际贸易法院在这些案件中作出的判决和永久性禁令将暂时中止，直至另行通知。 特朗普政府早些时候向该上诉法院表示，如果禁止关税执行的裁决不能被迅速暂停，政府将最早于5月 30日向最高法院寻求紧急帮助。 文/《清华金融评论》 王茅 美国关税问题再度反转，美国联邦巡回上诉法院批准特朗普政府的请求， 暂时搁置美国国际贸易法院此前作出的禁止执行特朗普政府依据《国际紧 急经济权力法》对多国加征关税措施的行政令的裁决。这导致先前因为裁 定特朗普越权而上升的市场风险偏好再度回落。 美国联邦巡回上诉法院"叫停"美国国际贸易法院的裁决 特朗普政府关税政策的命运真可谓"一波三折"，先是被美国国际贸易法院的裁决"叫停"，特朗普政府对 此很快提起上诉，过了一天上诉法院又"叫停"了美国国际贸易法院的裁决。 4月以来，特朗普政府对各国极限施压并不断反复，其目的在于通过关税手段 ...

文/清华大学全球私募股权研究院研究员 孙长忠 5 月 28日美联储公布了本月货币政策会议纪要。这是对等关税政策宣布 实施一个半月后第一份会议纪要，以正式文件形式反映了美联储官员对形 势变化的看法，凸显了美联储当前面临的政策困境，讨论了应对策略，强 化了会议声明和美联储主席鲍威尔新闻发布会的政策立场。 美联储面临的困境 继3月会议纪要后，"不确定性"仍是本次纪要的关键词。上次纪要全篇提及"不确定性"21次，本次纪要 是19次，特别是在委员会评估经济展望时称"迄今为止宣布的加征关税幅度和范围远超他们之前预期"， 之后在讨论关税政策变化及其经济影响时每一句都强调"不确定性""相当大的不确定性""显著不确定 性""总之是他们经济展望的不确定性异常高"。正是这种不确定性使美联储目前面临着政策困境。 根据会议纪要，美联储工作人员对今明两年美国实际GDP增长的预测低于3月会议时的预测，因为已公 布的贸易政策对实际经济活动的拖累比工作人员此前预测更大，还会导致生产率增长放缓，降低未来几 年潜在GDP增长。同时劳动力市场将显著疲软，失业率到今年底将高于工作人员估计的自然失业率并持 续到2027年。 工作人员的通胀预测高于3月， ...
