h*******y 发帖数: 864 | 1 That's what happens when investor seeks extra return but don't want to take
any additional risks. In the end, it's not that the new investment method
does not have risks, but the risks are hiding under the surface. How many
investors bought AAA-rating MBS?
Smart investors always seek risk-free returns. My IQ is lower but my heart
is stronger so I seek the risk-premium instead. So the bumpy the ride, the
better for me.
By the way, for those who missed the Madoff and Stanford international bank

S******n 发帖数: 617 | 2 Current mortgage rates are based on the FNMA 4.5% 30-year coupon MBS.
Price still dropping after the market is closed:
Heard the 30-year conventional rate jumped at least 50 bips TODAY. |
|
S******n 发帖数: 617 | 3 Look at the spike on TNX.
And to make it worse, the FNMA 4.5 collapsed as well:
Tomorrow $25B 7-year auction. Next week? 10-year & 30-year long bonds.
Primary dealers have to defend the Treasury market (big tail, fail...).
There isn't enough cash left to pump the equities and or the
commodities.... |

The rate is not high at all in absolute term.
It's just much higher than a couple of months ago. |

GM 表面上是破产了,实际政府是面上罩个破产的幌子,里子里玩了命的继续
砸钱。除了 stock holders 被放弃了,基本上是皆大欢喜的安排。
当然我不是说这样真的就能解决问题,但是就华尔街的短视来说,这的确是
利好啊。 |

短视是常态,但是还是要尊重危机爆发出现大瀑布的风险。美国的问题几年前
就很多人讲了,市场当成狼来了,一直不在乎。但是这两年来,房市泡沫,
消费泡沫,金融泡沫,一个接一个爆发。现在美国政府把大量系统风险转移到
自己身上,下面的债券危机,美元危机只是预演而已 |

Lack of ideas on what to buy at this moment.
Anyone comments on agency REIT companies? Which borrow short-term to buy
long-term MBS and earn the interest spread between short term and long term
interest. Is the yield curve is going to steepen or flat out? |

|
s********n 发帖数: 1962 | 43 There is really no definable signal. Something will go wrong, then
triggers everything else. Maybe china stocks crash, maybe US bonds
crash, maybe commodities crash, maybe some currency crashes, maybe
commercial MBS crashes, etc. Eventually everything will crash, but
in what sequence? too hard to tell. All we can do is to watch closely
and try to identify some early warnings. |
|
u****d 发帖数: 2578 | 44 Fed only bought AAA ratings. There are discussions to allow Fed to buy AA
ratings MBS. |
|
s********n 发帖数: 1962 | 45 It's hard to say at this stage.
Usually the answer should be treasury bonds. But given the fact that 50%
of treasuries and 80% of MBS were actually bought by the Fed in the last
few months, we just cann't tell how strong or how weak the bond market
can be. That yields a huge uncertain about all other asset types.
At this stage there is not much to say but to watch. Commodities are
very weak recently. That's one of the reasons I think a correction is
coming.

l**********t 发帖数: 5754 | 46 what "bond" do you refer to?
if you refer to the credit markets -- commercial papers/corporate bonds/MBS/
high-yield bonds, the return is determined by both risk-free interest rate (
i.e. Treasury etc) and credit spread (i.e, chance of default /bankrupcy).
During the crisis last year, credit spread widened dramatically -- some part
of the credit market literally forzen in the mid of the panic.
While, the tide turned and credit spread narrows this year (so far). |
|
f****t 发帖数: 1063 | 47 let us talk about gov bonds, so that we don't need to bring credit spread in.
last year, the rate was down, gov bonds should be up. but bonds were actually
down (right?).

标 题: 美国股市,银行,政府的解读
发信站: BBS 未名空间站 (Tue Nov 17 02:34:07 2009, 美东)
现在政府购买了银行手中的MBS,才真正使得银行摆脱了无尽的坏账,腾出手来放贷和
投资,也就是三月来大反弹和现在放贷利率历史新低的根本原因,如果没认识到这一点
就会错误判断股市的趋势而错过一波难得的大行情。
同时,银行危机的解除了,却把危机转嫁到了美国政府上,其最坏的结果可能就是美元
的信任危机。如果美元危机最终发生,其结果将是无法想象的恐怖与惨烈。。。
在政府信用危机没到来之前,银行现在“不缺钱”,股市还会继续被推高,大家要趁此
机会好好拿回报,等到危机显现时也有一定的家底来抵抗危机了。危机的到来应该在明
年以后,现在到明年年初还会是继续向上的走势。危机到来的表现应该是油价再次逼近
100,联储不得不做出加息的决定,当联储加息之时,就是撤出股市之日。
当然,最好这场危机能化解,目前还没看到有化解的希望。奥巴马的政策:金融改革,
医疗体系改革都是正确的,将 |
