1. 民主共和兩黨就債務上限達成短期協議,政府違約風險延後至十二月初,在此正面消息影響下,本週美股止跌回升。上週談到的「債務上限最終還是會解決」及「短期上看,市場有可能會反彈」剛好在本週印驗。至於反彈之後市場是否能再創新高或是跌破這段時間的低點視疫情下的經濟表現而定,而以目前的狀況來看,我們認為未來的經濟表現恐怕沒有市場估計的如此樂觀,以下幾項發展是我們關注的重點:

  • 全球能源緊缺:能源緊缺下上漲的電價及能源價格將會影響生產,也將降低民眾的可支配所得進一步影響消費,目前對歐洲及中國影響較大。最糟的情況下將進一步推動全球的物價上漲。
  • 中國經濟趨緩:除了缺電外,中國目前是全球僅剩以零容忍政策控制疫情的國家,再加上中國長期依賴地產活動以推動經濟發展的模式也面臨轉變,中國一旦經濟趨緩也將對全球產生衝擊。
  • 美國或許能避免經濟衰退,但對金融市場的衝擊難以避免:雖然歐洲、中國能源緊缺及所造成的經濟趨緩對美國經濟影響有限,未必會造成經濟衰退,但金融市場依然有可能會受到衝擊。1998年的亞洲金融危機是少數全球經濟衰退但美國不受影響的事件,但1997年標普500依然下跌20%。在最差的情況下,也有可能因為對金融市場的缺乏信心進一步導致經濟衰退。
  • 疫情、債務上限及基礎建設法案都是不確定因素: 目前的債務上限解決方案充其量只是把該解決的問題拖到十二月,但頂多只有短期的影響、終究會解決,可以姑且不論。但原本認為可以推動經濟發展的基礎建設法案或是人力基礎建設法案如果沒有通過可能會進一步傷害市場信心。至於疫情這種連防疫專家都不能準確預測的因素雖然不需要恐慌,但也不能忽視其帶來的不確定負面影響。
  • 除了一向強調的以投資組合分散風險外,也有一些較保守的投資可以考慮,像是比較安全的固定收益產品,例如以不動產作抵押的私人借貸在借款比率低的情況下是一個不錯的選擇。至於之前已經漲多、價格偏高的金融資產可以在反彈的階段檢視是否考慮部分獲利了結。

2. 在全球能源緊缺及OPEC決議依之前同意幅度增產下,原油價格創下七年以來新高。在俄羅斯總統普丁宣布將協助穩定天然氣市場後,歐洲天然氣價格稍微穩定。中國以各種方案增加煤礦生產及發電,其中包括釋出原本存放在海關無法通關的澳洲進口煤礦。

  • 歐洲電價及天然氣價格幾乎每天創新高,部分能源密集產業因不堪電價上升而停工,此情形將隨著冬季暖氣的需求上升更趨惡化。
  • 中國缺電的影響將隨著中國出口擴散全球,部分分析師預期部分美國商品價格在明年春天將上漲15%。

3. 如同之前所預料,中國地產問題並不到恒大為止,花樣年控股集團有限公司(Fantasia Holdings Group)也傳出未按時支付利息,新力控股(Sinic)則被信用機構調降評等,華人置業集團(Chinese Estates Holdings)則計劃下市。整體房市銷售不佳也讓許多地產公司以美元計價的債券價格大幅滑落。

4. 民主黨內部持續協商企圖就原本$3.5兆美元的人力基礎建設法案達成共識,目前規模已縮小至$2.5~ $2.9兆。

【疫情更新】

  • 在紐西蘭放棄零容忍策略後,中國將成為唯一持續封鎖邊界及並視情況封鎖經濟活動的國家,經濟學家皆在關注其對中國甚至全球經濟成長的影響。
