洪灏最新观点,展望2026:持而盈之
Xin Lang Cai Jing· 2025-11-25 01:44
来源:市场资讯 (来源:太阳投研札记) 洪灏在《展望 2026:持而盈之》上下篇中,从全球经济格局、中美市场表现、政策走向及资产配置等 多个维度,分析了 2026 年市场的风险与机遇,核心观点可总结为以下两大方面: 特朗普发起的全球贸易战未能改善美国贸易赤字,反而因中国制造业优势和稀土行业整合,让美国谈判 筹码不足;关税政策推高美国通胀预期,进一步复杂化美联储决策。 美国经济与市场:风险积聚,泡沫隐现 1. 货币政策失去独立性,陷入 "三难" 困境 美联储货币政策逐渐从属于美国财政政策,因美国政府债台高筑,美联储需通过购债为财政赤字融资, 其决策受经济增长、通胀高企和金融稳定三重矛盾制约。 美国回购市场流动性紧张,隔夜逆回购工具近乎归零,美联储大概率将停止量化紧缩并重启扩表,但扩 表方式(买短端 / 长端债券)将影响资产价格走势,短期利好市场,长期恐因久期问题难改美股冲高回 落趋势。 2.经济周期步入晚期,半导体与经济周期背离 量化模型显示美国经济未来数月将放缓,而半导体周期仍在冲高,美股涨幅集中于少数科技巨头和 AI 相关企业,市场宽度持续收窄,科技股估值已接近甚至超过 2000 年互联网泡沫水平。 美国私 ...
