四月以来的美股，像极了一个不稳定的新兴市场。 这话的出处，并不是憋屈已久的 A 股股民终于恶语反制，而是来自美国前财政部长萨默斯4 月 9 日晚 上发的推特——"过去 24 小时的发展表明，我们可能正走向一场完全由美国政府关税政策引发的严重 金融危机…… 我们正被全球金融市场当作一个有问题的新兴市场对待。 " 从美东时间4月2日特朗普宣布向所有贸易伙伴征收"对等关税"，到七天之后的 4 月 9 日又宣布暂停大 部分"对等关税"，再到豁免的语焉不详、谈判预期的摇摆反复，全球市场在贸易体系的不确定性里出现 罕见波动。几个月前还在"美国例外论"里岁月静好的美国资产更是处在漩涡中心，股债汇全面震荡。 美国媒体把这场动荡称为"Tariff Crash"，直译是关税熊，但很多简中标题则沿用了上一个任期的顺口 溜：一顿分析猛如虎，涨跌还看特朗普。 尽管在 4 月 9 日之后，短期的硝烟似乎有所消散。在可能出现部分政策纠偏的预期下，一度警告大衰 退的华尔街投行们也试图重新回到常规的分析框架内，对美国以及其他经济体的前景做出新的预测。 值得一提的是，在这场关税大震荡里迎来自己三十周年的世界贸易组织（WTO）却没有任何直接行动。 ...

转自：新华财经 近期美债的大幅抛售扰乱了全球市场，引发了人们对推动这种波动的力量的质疑。尽管通胀预期和美联 储政策仍是主要的长期驱动因素，但近期动荡背后可能有一个更为直接和技术性的因素：被称为"基差 交易"的杠杆对冲基金策略的大规模平仓。这种交易的机制是如何运作的，它为什么会瓦解，以及它是 如何导致债券和股票同时下跌的，本文将回答这个问题。 基差交易：美债市场套利 所谓基差交易，是对冲基金常用的一种相对价值策略，尤其是那些从事固定收益套利的对冲基金。这种 交易包括在现货市场买入美债，同时卖出等价的美债期货合约。其目的是从两种金融工具之间的价差 或"基准点"中获利。 在正常的市场条件下，美债期货和标的债券价格应该在期货合约到期时趋于一致。然而，价格上的些微 偏差——通常是由于资金、流动性或交割期权的差异——会创造套利机会。这些定价效率低下的情况通 常很小，因此交易严重依赖杠杆来产生有价值的回报。 为了购买美债现券，对冲基金利用回购市场，以相对较低的利率借入债券。这就形成了一个高度杠杆化 的头寸，只有在基差保持可预测和稳定的情况下才能盈利。 在过去的几个月里，美债市场的波动性明显增加。这在一定程度上是由于持续的通 ...

Group 1: Hedge Fund Leverage and Basis Trading - Major hedge funds, including Millennium, Citadel, and Balyasny, have seen their regulatory leverage nearly double since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, approaching levels seen before the collapse of Long-Term Capital Management (LTCM) [1]. - The leverage used in these trades is reported to be around 20 times, indicating a high-risk environment for these institutions [4]. - A mere 5% loss in these leveraged positions could lead to catastrophic outcomes for the funds involved [7].

Group 3: Federal Reserve's Role and Potential Actions - The Federal Reserve is under pressure to intervene, with discussions around potential measures such as rate cuts or quantitative easing to stabilize the market [18][22]. - There is a growing sentiment that the Fed may need to act soon, especially with significant events like the upcoming 10-year Treasury auction that could test market liquidity [21]. - The paradox exists where increasing liquidity issues could be misinterpreted as inflationary signals, complicating the Fed's decision-making process [21].

【环球时报驻美国特约记者 冯亚仁 陈欣 文远】随着对美国政府滥施关税恐伤及自身的担忧越发强烈，越来越多的美国亿万富豪、企业高管甚至 特朗普的盟友站出来反对相关政策的实施。摩根大通首席执行官杰米·戴蒙7日在年度股东信中表示，近期的关税政策可能会推高通货膨胀率，并 导致许多人调升对美国经济陷入衰退的预期。此外，美国政府效率部负责人、企业家马斯克多次含蓄表达对新关税政策的不满。共和党国会议员 还提出议案，要求征税应由国会批准而非总统。美国《华盛顿邮报》称，此类批评声音是贸易战引发的经济动荡可能给特朗普留下持久政治创伤 的早期迹象，标志着特朗普的盟友在他担任总统的头两个半月里"普遍顺从"的局面发生变化。 投资人比尔·阿克曼则将批评矛头对准卢特尼克。阿克曼在社交平台上发帖称，卢特尼克对美国股市和经济崩溃漠不关心，选择这样的人做商务 部长是糟糕的主意。 " 关税就是税负，美国人正付出代价 " 就连特朗普的亿万富豪盟友埃隆·马斯克似乎也对关税不满。7日，他在社交平台上传了一段已故保守派经济学家米尔顿·弗里德曼的视频。在视频 中，弗里德曼详细分析了一支铅笔是如何由全球各地的材料和劳动力制造出来的。美媒普遍认为，这是马斯克在含 ...
