Summary of Conference Call Company/Industry Involved - The discussion primarily revolves around the global financial markets, particularly focusing on the Chinese A-share market, Hong Kong stock market, and the U.S. market. Core Points and Arguments 1. **Market Downturn and Recovery** The speaker noted significant irrational declines in global markets, including the U.S. and Chinese markets, with the Shanghai Composite Index around 3400 points and the Hang Seng Index at approximately 24000 points. The speaker emphasized the difficulty of reporting investment performance during such downturns, highlighting the pressure for investors to redeem their positions during historical lows [2][3][4]. 2. **Investor Behavior During Crises** It was pointed out that during market crises, investors often redeem their best-performing assets first, leading to a further decline in the portfolio's value. The speaker stressed the importance of understanding both absolute returns and the risks taken to achieve those returns [3][4]. 3. **Geopolitical Risks** The speaker discussed the escalating geopolitical tensions, particularly in the Middle East, and the potential for U.S. military involvement. The situation with Iran and Israel was highlighted as a significant risk factor that could impact investment strategies [4][11]. 4. **Distinction Between Risk and Uncertainty** A clear distinction was made between risk (which can be quantified) and uncertainty (which cannot). The speaker emphasized the importance of scenario analysis for uncertain events like wars, while risk can be assessed through historical data and trends [4][5][6]. 5. **Market Volatility and Historical Context** The speaker noted that during periods of extreme volatility, asset correlations tend to increase, meaning all asset classes move in the same direction. This was illustrated by the unprecedented rise in the VIX index during market downturns [5][6]. 6. **Future Market Outlook** The speaker suggested that the market conditions established in the first half of the year would set the stage for the second half. There was a discussion about the potential for a rebound in the market, particularly around key support levels [7][8]. 7. **Real Estate Market Concerns** The speaker referenced a Goldman Sachs report predicting a significant decline in China's real estate demand over the next decade, which could lead to a prolonged oversupply situation. The need for a three-year period without new construction to absorb existing inventory was mentioned [9][10]. 8. **Economic Indicators and Predictions** The speaker discussed the importance of monitoring U.S. economic indicators, particularly the yield curve, to assess the likelihood of a recession. The current economic cycle was described as being in a unique position, with the potential for continued growth unless disrupted by external shocks [19][20][21]. 9. **Liquidity Conditions** The speaker emphasized that liquidity conditions are crucial for market direction, suggesting that improving liquidity could lead to market rebounds. The relationship between liquidity and market performance was highlighted, with historical patterns indicating that liquidity often improves before economic recoveries [12][18]. 10. **Global Economic Decoupling** The speaker noted a decoupling between the U.S. and Chinese economies, with the U.S. experiencing strong economic indicators while China faces challenges, particularly in the real estate sector. This divergence was described as unprecedented in recent history [24][25]. Other Important but Possibly Overlooked Content 1. **Valuation Considerations** The speaker argued that short-term valuations are not always indicative of future performance, suggesting that high valuations can still be justified by strong demand and growth prospects in certain sectors, particularly technology [13][14][15]. 2. **Debt and Inflation Dynamics** The discussion included insights on how different sectors' debt levels impact inflation, with a focus on the U.S. government's increasing debt and its implications for future inflation trends [30][31][32]. 3. **Investment Strategy Adjustments** The speaker advised that investment strategies should be adaptable based on economic conditions, emphasizing the need to differentiate between short-term trading factors and long-term economic narratives [8][10][12]. 4. **Global Capital Flows** The speaker highlighted the shift in global capital flows, with significant outflows from U.S. assets, which could impact the dollar's strength and overall market dynamics [26][27][28]. 5. **Long-term Economic Outlook for China** The speaker expressed concerns about China's long-term economic outlook, particularly regarding its ability to manage debt levels and stimulate growth without exacerbating deflationary pressures [32][33].

21世纪经济报道记者吴斌 上海报道 在本周美联储主席鲍威尔的重要发言过后，美联储降息预期再度升 温。 据央视新闻报道，当地时间6月25日，鲍威尔表示，美国政府施行的前所未有的关税政策使美联储难以 预测通胀前景，也难以决定何时降息。自二战以来，各国在逐渐减少关税。人们会参考美国总统特朗普 的第一个总统任期内关税政策对通胀的影响，但当时加征关税的规模只有如今人们估算的六分之一。所 以美联储需要审慎分析从而做出明智决定。 从表面上看，鲍威尔依旧在"打太极"，但一些言语已经释放了微妙鸽派信号。鲍威尔表示，特朗普政府 的关税计划很可能只会导致物价一次性上涨，同时引发更持久通胀的风险也让美联储在考虑进一步降息 时保持谨慎，关税的影响"可能大也可能小，这是需要小心应对的事情。" 随着美联储降息预期升温，美债市场反应显著，6月25日各期限美债收益率普遍走低。2年期美债收益率 跌4.02个基点至3.779%，5年期美债收益率跌1.59个基点至3.845%，10年期美债收益率跌0.59个基点至 4.291%，30年期美债收益率跌0.31个基点至4.831%。 鹰派美联储为何"转鸽"？ 在美联储鹰派程度减弱背后，美国"硬数据"已经 ...

与此同时，通胀问题依然棘手。Sløk预测，到年底，美国的通胀率可能仍将维持在百分之三左右，远高于美联储百分之二的目标水平。这一数字较此前百分 之二点四的预测显著上升，反映出物价压力的持续性。尽管美联储已采取了一系列紧缩措施，但通胀的黏性使得市场对降息的预期不断推迟，进一步加剧了 经济的不确定性。 劳动力市场的表现同样不容乐观。Sløk预计，美国失业率将在未来十八个月内持续攀升，今年可能从当前的百分之四点二升至四点四， 而到明年或将突破百分之五。历史经验表明，失业率的上升往往与滞胀周期相伴而生。上世纪七八十年代，美国曾经历严重的滞胀，失业率一度飙升至接近 百分之十的高位。如今，类似的阴影似乎正在重现。 Sløk在一份最新研究报告中指出，美国经济增长已显疲态，而通胀压力却未见明显缓解。他认为，这一局面的形成与近年来贸易政策的调整密切相关。关税 政策的变动不仅增加了经济下行的风险，还推高了物价水平，形成了典型的滞胀冲击。华尔街对今年经济增长的预期已普遍下调，而对通胀的预测则小幅上 升，这种趋势进一步印证了滞胀的可能性。 美国经济增长放缓已成为不争的事实。Sløk预计，今年美国GDP增速可能降至百分之一点二，较去年第 ...
