We all know that the United States started raising interest rates in March last year, and continued to raise interest rates until May this year, and may even increase it in June.
So the United States has been raising interest rates continuously, what is his purpose?
The purpose of the public is to control inflation, but is inflation under control?
Obviously, no, prices have always been **, and now the CPI is still about 5%. This 5% is an increase of 5% on top of the 8% increase last year, which is certainly not called controlling inflation.
From March last year to May this year, 10 consecutive interest rate hikes were made, and finally the Fed added a lonely and complete failure to raise interest rates.
Some netizens joked that the Fed's interest rate hike at least succeeded in dragging U.S. bonds into the quagmire.
Now it seems that the US debt could default at any time.
After the U.S. defaulted, creditors suffered heavy losses, will the U.S. continue to issue U.S. bonds?
The debt system is a credit system, and if you don't have credit, then you can't be a debtor.
If a country's credit goes bankrupt and everyone agrees that it is unable to repay its loans, no country will lend it money again. Now the United States is on the verge of credit bankruptcy.
When everyone thinks that buying U.S. ** bonds becomes buying a piece of waste paper, then who else will buy U.S. ** bonds?
If the United States is unable to issue public bonds, then what will the United States use to support its fiscal spending in the future?
Unlike other countries, the United States has another **tax on income in addition to taxes, and that is to collect taxes from the world through U.S. debt. Once the U.S. debt goes bankrupt, the U.S. will not have this tax revenue in the future.
Can you imagine what the United States will become with domestic tax revenue alone?
It is conceivable that when the United States gradually declines, other countries will inevitably rise to the occasion.
Now the world's eyes are focused on the East, focusing on China. More and more investment banks believe that China's future prospects are very good.
As a result, the money that began to "** kept coming in.
The Ministry of Commerce released foreign investment data from January to April, and China's actual utilization of foreign capital was 4,994600 million yuan, an increase of 2 over the same period last year2%。
If you look for last year's data, you will find that although our economic situation in 2022 is relatively poor, the use of foreign capital will still increase significantly compared with 2021. In other words, in 2023, under the base of last year's big growth, it will once again grow.
Among them, foreign direct investment in the industrial and high-tech sectors increased by 4.1 percent and 12.8 percent respectively.
Who's in **?Certainly not the United States. The United States always wants to decouple from us and give up great opportunities to other countries.
We find that France, the United Kingdom, and Japan have seen the largest increases in investment in China, and this is an exaggerated amount.
For example, France, the year-on-year growth reached more than 560%;The UK has also seen an increase of more than 300%.
What does this mean?
It shows that European countries are taking advantage of this opportunity and continue to pour into the Chinese market.
This shows that some of China's advantageous industries, although they have not yet reached a very high level as a whole, have been firmly grasped by foreign-funded enterprises and have become hot spots for investment.
With the strong recovery of China's economy and the inevitable large increase in the RMB exchange rate, these foreign investors who are now coming in can enjoy good dividends.
