@Burkhard Varnholt : 我最近与一家大型全球物流公司首席执行官交谈,他描述了公司空运业务的激增,原因是企业为了避免即将实施的关税而改变物流策略,将海运改为空运。这与疫情期间的情况类似,当时企业从即时制供应链转向备货制供应链。现在,企业在关税生效前就采取行动,这成为了新的即时制。美国自去年10月以来进口额大幅增加,达到3.5万亿美元。其他例子包括福特汽车公司囤积加拿大制造的发动机,以及铝材从加拿大转运到欧洲或澳大利亚等。铜价也因提前购买而上涨30%,这可能预示着中国经济的强劲复苏,但仍需进一步观察。在第二季度,市场将充满噪音,投资者需要区分噪音和实质内容,避免被夸大的信息所误导。一些人会强调关税对通货膨胀的影响,另一些人则会强调关税如何提高美国制造商的竞争力。用关税替代税收来资助政府是不现实的。 @Dan Cassidy :鉴于市场波动,投资者应该关注哪些投资机会?在当前形势下,我们仍然不认为经济会衰退。尽管消费者情绪低迷,但生产力仍在上升,中美之间的AI竞争对经济发展有利,大部分就业和收入水平仍然良好,婴儿潮一代的净资产也处于历史高位。服务业消费强劲,长端债券收益率下降,银行表现良好,这些都表明经济并未陷入衰退。欧洲和中国的消费者拥有大量储蓄,中国政府的刺激措施也对经济增长有积极作用。比亚迪等企业的强劲增长也印证了这一点。人工智能、能源和基础设施等主题仍然具有吸引力,服务业(如银行、医疗和旅游业)也值得关注,尤其是在亚洲和欧洲市场。尽管存在地缘政治风险,但美国政府正努力控制油价,油市目前供过于求,美国政府正积极采取措施避免石油供应中断,以保持油价稳定。
