張庭賓 人民幣貶值:狼已逼近

http://blog.sina.com.cn/


美國已近成功將危機轉嫁中國

 
人民幣貶值:狼已逼近

  
張庭賓

    
這一次,人民幣貶值的“狼”真的來了嗎?

    
從2月20日至3月14日,人民幣已經貶值了0.66%,“人民幣拐點”之聲再次響起。

    
前一次人民幣轉而貶值發生在去年11月,曾連續10天盤中跌停,從11月4日到29日,人民幣對美元貶值0.65%,其背景是國際熱錢出現大量外流。 2011年10-12月外匯儲備淨增加分別為:721.13億、-528.89億、-397.59億美元,是自1998年以來的首次季度淨減少。與此同時,2011年10-12月份央行和金融機構外匯占款分別淨減少人民幣249、279和1003億元人民幣。

    
上一次的人民幣貶值在12月份被中國央行人為地扭轉。在12月份外匯占款大減1003億,遠超11月份的情況下,人民幣兌美元強行升值0.6%。 12月19日,本人刊發了《“人民幣匯率穩定”已成巨大陷阱》一文,強調在熱錢大規模外流的情況下,實施所謂的人民幣匯率穩定,客觀上鼓勵並使熱錢以最大化收益離場,中國的外儲損失將最大化,甚至可能出現中國缺乏足夠的美元兌付離場熱錢的危機。因此,應允許人民幣按照市場需求貶值,甚至是大幅貶值。

    
三個月後,中國高層對於人民幣匯率的態度發生了顯著變化。 3月15日,溫家寶總理在“兩會”答記者問時指出:人民幣匯率有可能已經接近均衡水平,我們就將繼續加大匯改力度,特別是較大幅度實施雙向的波動。

    
這是一個明智的轉變,表明過去數年來被套在中國頭上的“人民幣低估”的“緊箍咒”開始鬆動。對於人民幣匯率可能接近均衡水平的依據,溫總理給出了三個:1,從2005年匯改以來,中國實際有效匯率已經提高30%。 2,2011年中國經常性賬戶佔GDP的比重已經達到2.8%,小於3%的國際公認標準。 “也就是說在國際收支和貨物貿易上,中國已經實現了基本平衡。;3,從去年9月份開始,在香港市場無本金遠期交割開始雙向波動。在此情況下,如果這一輪人民幣按照市場需求貶值,則中國央行應當不會強行干預。

    
最近一個月的人民幣貶值,直接原因是2月份貿易逆差達314億美元,創下了10年來的單月最高,造成2月外匯占款由1月份的1409億元銳減到251億元人民幣。與此同時,2月份FDI為77.86億美元,環比減少22.71%,為2010年11月以來的單月新低。

    
如果說去年11月份由熱錢快速外流所導致的人民幣貶值為“表”,為外因;那麼,這一次人民幣貶值是由於中國製造優勢衰減和外商投資退潮所致,則為“本”,為內因,
具有更長期趨勢性。
倘若內外因互動,並因突發事件激化,則可能出現人民幣大幅貶值的情形。

    
在筆者看來,自2005年7月人民幣對外升值以來,對內在不斷貶值,中國製造的競爭力持續下滑,原因是多方面的——人民幣升值導致大量熱錢投機中國,央行大量發行基礎貨幣稀釋了人民幣內在價值;土地招拍掛制度、寬鬆的信貸環境極大推高了房地產價格,造成購買力嚴重下降;政府宏觀管理成本持續提高,侵消了企業利潤;國際上資源價格大幅上漲;國內勞動力供給的“劉易斯拐點”超出多數人預期提前到來;西方國家的貿易壁壘越來​​越高;乃至於美國再工業化,美國主導的TPP(泛太平洋夥伴關係協議)對中國進口的替代……

    
七年前,人民幣的確低估。解決人民幣低估有三種策略:A是人民幣一次性高估,比如當時一次性升值20%;B是人民幣不升值,但大力推高國內勞動力價格、資源環境價格,建立社會保障體系;C就是被實際執行的人民幣漸進加速升值的方法。

    
前兩種策略中,​​從人民幣低估到均衡的主要福利由國民享受。第三種導致國際熱錢大量湧入中國,不僅推高了物價,而且熱錢利用其成熟的投資能力,在中國股市、樓市通過“超級過山車”式的財富再分配,賺得盆滿缽滿,而國人在這種一邊倒的博弈中,不僅輸掉了巨量的過去現金積累,被套牢在房產中,還透支了未來的預期勞動收入,成為了內需急劇惡化的根源之一。

    
與此同時,中國被低估的廉價商品出口和大量熱錢積累起來的外匯儲備,又以購買債券的方式上萬億美元地借給了美國政府和企業,成為美國緩解和拯救2008年金融危機的巨量資金來源,甚至成為美國的軍費。極其匱乏資金的中國社保體系卻不能藉用一分錢,無法轉化為內需。

    
隨著三年多以來美國將拯救金融危機的成本逐漸轉嫁給中國,企業競爭力比2008年明顯增強,整體經濟的健康情況也好於危機前。同時,隨著中國製造的核心競爭力逐漸衰減;隨著國際熱錢在中國國內賺的盆滿缽滿,已經難以找到更大投資收益後,熱錢外流和人民幣的貶值已難避免。現在言之鑿鑿​​稱A股大漲者為癡人說夢!

    
現在斷言人民幣何時大幅貶值為時尚早,這仍需要突發事件,可能有三個:1,美國對華髮動大規模貿易戰,2月28日美國成立跨部門貿易執法中心, 3月14日奧巴馬親自宣布向WTO起訴中國限制稀土出口都是信號;2,美國以色列襲擊伊朗,導致石油價格暴漲,供應中斷,加上推高糧食價格,導致中國樓市雪崩;3,中國周邊出現地緣政治危機

    
一旦出現熱錢大量外逃,中國的上策是先發製人一次性貶值(與7年前剛好相反);中策是任由人民幣貶值;下策是硬挺人民幣與美元的聯繫匯率。下策將重蹈1997年亞洲金融危機中泰國的覆轍。

    
對此三策,上策需要極大的魄力;下策的風險已經被意識到;中策被實施的可能性較大,但有可能會偏於下策的一端。

    
總之,除了美國發生巨大災害、美聯儲推QE3、在伊朗戰爭中損失慘重,否則人民幣貶值已經成為大概率事件。對此,中國投資者不能不防。 (僅供參考,投資者決策風險自負,聯繫郵箱ztb6006@sina.com)

The Coin Analyst: China Strives to Make Silver Pandas as Popular as American Silver Eagles

外國銀幣收藏家眼中的銀貓


by Louis Golino for CoinWeek
Each year modern world coin collectors eagerly await the release of the latest Panda coins from China, which are made in silver and gold.
Even more than is the case with other world releases, one ounce silver Pandas attract the interest of both bullion buyers and numismatists, including those who are world coin generalists as well as China specialists.
One of the main reasons for the high interest in silver Panda coins is the impressive price track record of past issues. Even coins from the past couple years sell for a substantial premium over silver content.
In fact, premiums over melt value for silver Pandas exceed that for any other world bullion coin except those for Australian Lunar coins.




China and Australia Especially Strong

Jim Orcholski, a Wisconsin coin dealer who runs J&T Coins , said that the track record for Chinese and Australian coins is especially strong compared to other modern world coins.
There is a lot of interest right now among his customers in the 2012 silver Pandas, which were made available to the retail market by distributors several weeks ago.
Mr. Orcholski explained that this year’s issue was minted by the end of last year or the beginning of this year, according to what his distributors told him.
But dealers were told to wait for higher silver prices before releasing the coins.
After the coins were released, silver briefly rose to $37 before retreating to the $33 level.

Mr. Orcholski and other dealers found it interesting that China held off so long on releasing the coins, and a possible indication that China does not hedge its silver, as large producers often do to mitigate the effects of swings in bullion values.

Until last year the one ounce silver Pandas had mintages well below one million. Depending on the year past mintages were between 31,000 and 600,000 until 2011, when an initial three million were released but later the total mintage was said to be six million.
The coins were first issued in 1983 as proofs, when only 10,000 were made.

Mintage increased

For 2012 eight million coins are being released. And the market appears to be eagerly snapping up those coins, with several large bullion dealers out of their initial allocation.

Despite the major increase in mintage the coins are not getting any easier to locate in the U.S. Mr. Orcholski said supplies are tight and that he was only able to secure one-third of the quantity he requested. He added that his distributor was unable to say when more coins might be available.
The main reason the mintage of these coins was increased so much starting last year is that it became legal in 2011 for Chinese citizens to own silver coins. This means that a lot of 2011 and 2012-dated coins remain in China.

The Chinese government is also eager to make silver Pandas as popular as American silver eagles, according to Mr. Orcholski.
Pandas are obviously very popular within China, and it is not known how many of the silver Pandas are exported and how many are sold within China. But it is believed that the increase in mintage was related to the legalization of silver ownership in China.
It seems like the higher overall mintages have not lowered prices. In fact, retail prices are actually up substantially on this year’s coins.

Mr. Orcholski added that at the wholesale level he had to pay $3.50 more this year per coin than he did last year.

Gold Pandas are also popular with collectors, but unlike silver Pandas, which are collected widely as numismatic items, the gold Pandas are primarily bullion coins and trade at levels comparable to American gold eagles.

2012 American silver eagles sell for about $5 each over spot, whereas 2012 silver Pandas run anywhere from about $12 to $25 over spot.

Silver Pandas are also made in limited numbers in a five-ounce format. Those coins are also very popular, and they sell for much higher premiums over melt value than the America the Beautiful five-ounce silver coins do.

The five-ounce 2012 silver Panda has not yet been released.
Proof one kilogram silver Panda coins were issued for some years between 1998 and 2010. The mintage for these coins is between two and four thousand. Mr. Orcholski said that many of these coins have performed well as collectibles, with some issues selling for several times current melt value.

Mr. Orcholski said that in the past modern world bullion coins were seen mostly as a bullion play, an investment in metal rather than coins. But today, there is growing interest in some of these coins as collectibles with significant numismatic potential.

The market for Chinese coins today is very strong in the U.S. and worldwide, and that is also likely to help sustain strong interest in silver Pandas.

In addition to attending coin shows and selling through his retail shop and web site, Mr. Orcholski also maintains a coin blog . He started the blog four years because he believes it is important for collectors to be educated and to be exposed to a variety of views on coins.

Silver Update 3/22/12 China Bashers

Endeavour Silver Provides Blueprint to Sprott’s Call to Action

 www.marketoracle.co.uk

Eric Sprott, legendary gold and silver investor and chairman of Sprott Inc., famously issued an open letter to 17 of the world’s largest silver producers last year. The letter is well-known to the precious metals community because it challenged the mining industry to limit silver sales until prices increased. Unlike an OPEC style cartel, Sprott advocated that miners simply hold a portion of their cash reserves in the form of silver, in order to protect themselves and shareholders from irrational price corrections that take place too often in the silver market. Endeavour Silver not only heeded Sprott’s advice, but has already benefited from it.


Sprott’s “Call to Action” letter suggested, “Instead of selling all their silver for cash and depositing that cash in a levered bank, silver miners should seriously consider storing a portion of their reserves in physical silver outside of the banking system. Why take on all the risks of the bank when you can hold hard cash through the very metal that you mine? Given the current environment, we see much greater risk holding cash in a bank than we do in holding precious metals.” Furthermore, holding silver instead of cash as a form of savings allows silver miners to convert their silver into cash at an opportune time.
Endeavour Silver, a mid-cap silver mining company with operations in Mexico, is a perfect example of Sprott’s letter. The company has been parking excess cash in silver and gold on a short-term basis since 2008. Instead of falling victim to the volatile silver market, Endeavour “elected not to sell a significant portion of its metal production on the basis that the gold and silver prices were experiencing a major correction and the Company would be better served to hold the unsold metal in inventory until such time as the metal prices rebounded,” the company said in its earnings release on Tuesday. Endeavour held 980,000 ounces of silver and 5,400 ounces of gold at the end of 2011, compared to only 127,000 ounces of silver and 957 ounces of gold at the end of 2010.
Silver prices were quite volatile in 2011. After opening the year at $30.63 per ounce, silver climbed to nearly $50 on April 28. However, prices were beaten down to $26 by December and ultimately closed the year at $28.18. This year, silver prices rebounded to $37 per ounce in February and provided Endeavour an opportune time to sell its silver holdings. The miner explained, “Metal prices did rebound in Q1, 2012 and management subsequently sold most of the metal held in inventory at prices significantly higher than the December prices.” Since gold and silver are considered to be real money in many nations worldwide, they can be liquidated easily when the need or opportunity arises.
As more companies and investors realize the benefits of savings in the form of physical gold and silver, the trend of protecting wealth from devaluing fiat currencies will increase. McEwen Mining, a mid-tier silver and gold producer in the Americas, recently announced it held around one-third of its $78.8 million treasury in physical bullion, predicting that gold and silver will hit $5,000 and $200 an ounce by the middle of the decade, respectively.

地產女王張淳淳大病後的生命體悟

鉅亨網

 

人生賺那麼多錢,只是讓你住到頭等病房!

「你可以買陀飛輪,但買不到時間。你可以買下帝寶豪宅,但買不到家庭的溫暖。你可以買下一家醫院,但妳買不到健康。」寫下這段話的,就是因病而沉寂一年多的舞蹈老師兼房地產達人──張淳淳。生病前,多才多藝的張淳淳,一刻都停不下來,完全奉獻於工作。各項事業都經營得有聲有色,不但是李玟、S.H.E等大明星的專任舞蹈教師,也為鄭秀文、許茹芸等歌手的唱片填詞。熱愛舞蹈與創作的她,還成為運動商品公司、出版社的老闆,因為比別人更認真打拚,當她跨足房地產,也立刻成為房地產達人,成績耀眼。

■棘手  對抗史上最頑強病菌

相信認真就會有收穫,相信只要努力打拚就會成功的張淳淳,萬萬都想不到,奮發向上、開朗樂觀的她,會有想要輕生的一天。

台大醫院古色古香的長廊裡,一位女孩,坐在輪椅上,她在二十歲豆蔻年華時,因為受到一種罕見病毒感染,而住進台大醫院,從此就再也沒有踏出台大醫院,現在她已經二十八歲了。

不幸的,張淳淳所感染的正是這種目前全世界都無藥可醫的怪病。張淳淳在二○一○年七月去做了腿部微調手術,其後發病,「張小姐,這是一個很棘手的疾病,這種病毒非常頑強,是病毒裡面的陳進興,你可能一輩子都要跟它抗戰!」醫師對張淳淳說道。

「我會這麼幸運嗎?」當下張淳淳如晴天霹靂、不可置信,她所感染的正是NTM非結核分枝桿菌(non-tuberculous mycobacteria),全台灣只有前述女孩一個病例,張淳淳是第二例。

一直被外界定義為女強人的張淳淳,沒想到自己除了打拚事業外,還得對抗史上最頑強的病菌!

每天下午兩點半,是喝下午茶的時間,但對張淳淳而言,卻是打嗎啡的時間。「每天下午兩點半,是我最害怕的時候。」

張淳淳所感染的怪病,會在她的腿上,長滿大大小小的膿瘡傷口,「最多的時候,高達九十九個」。因此,每天她都必須一一清創、消毒。清創時必須擠出受感染的血水,清創的劇痛,必須依靠打嗎啡才有辦法進行。她每天光是清創傷口,要兩個小時,而打嗎啡就要六個鐘頭。「這是合法的打嗎啡,」張淳淳自我消遣地說道,「但是我一點都high不起來,而是感到莫大的恐懼與痛苦。」

■咬牙  靠意志力撐過清創劇痛

有一次,張淳淳聽到護士的藥車正在一步一步靠近她的病房,她竟然害怕到連滾帶爬地衝下床,下意識地收起行李,就想要逃跑。「我嚇到躲到廁所,護士們喊道:『張淳淳呢?』我竟回說:『她不在』。」

打嗎啡的夢魘,張淳淳連回想都害怕。「我打嗎啡打到手都硬了,血管根本打不進去,一直換部位,最後,全身的血管也都僵硬無比,無法再注射了。不得已,只好在脖子的大動脈部位插管,然後等到脖子也硬化之後,就改插鼠蹊部,鼠蹊部硬化之後,再改插腳底。」

[NT:PAGE=$]打嗎啡原是為了止清創的痛苦,但是,卻又帶來另一個災難,它的副作用就是「每天上吐下瀉至少二十次」。

扣掉清創與打嗎啡的時間,剩下的時間,張淳淳得拚命吃東西。「一天要吃八個小時,一直吃東西的原因是,你才有東西可以吐與瀉,每天就是不停的吃、吐與瀉。」因為上吐下瀉身體會虛脫,所以張淳淳須一直補充食物與能量。

雖然張淳淳每天不停地吃,但是體重卻還是直直落,「每周都至少瘦一點五公斤,一個月就瘦了快要五公斤。」張淳淳的心情更加沉重,「瘦,原本應該是每個女孩子求之不得的事情,但當時我卻害怕得不得了,因為我覺得我的生命和我的健康,一點一滴的在遠離我。」

因為打嗎啡對健康傷害很大,堅強的她,最後咬牙告訴醫師:「我不要嗎啡。」後來每次清創時,不再有嗎啡止痛的張淳淳,就會拿著《聖經》、一邊唱詩歌,靠著自己的力量撐過清創的煎熬與痛苦。「《聖經》外面厚厚的書皮,都被我的指甲抓破了。」於是,在打了八個月的嗎啡後,張淳淳靠著自己的意志力,撐過清創的劇痛。

「每次上洗手間,竟然就要花兩小時!」因為傷口處處,讓張淳淳的雙腿無力,打嗎啡則讓她的體力越來越虛弱,原本又唱又跳的她,生病之後,五公尺不到的距離,竟然要走上半個小時。

生病之後,對一般人而言,再簡單不過的事情,如走路、甚至洗澡,對張淳淳而言,都是莫大的奢侈,因為怕傷口感染之故,她甚至長達九十天無法淋浴,只能擦澡。頭髮也因不斷嘗試各種治療藥物而掉光了,現在慢慢長出來當中,許久未對外公開露面的她,看起來臉部明顯消瘦許多。

■黑暗  版權爭議與詐騙接踵而至

身體上的折磨,張淳淳都能夠咬牙撐過,但是最讓她感到灰心的是── 人性的黑暗面。在她正在鬼門關與死神掙扎搏鬥時,竟然還有人對她落井下石與惡意攻訐。

「一般人最不想去的就是醫院與法院,我生病的時候,還得去想法院的事情。」因為與旗下一位作者的版權爭議,張淳淳幾乎心力交瘁。「我命都快沒了,怎麼還可能去和作者計較版稅的事情?」

張淳淳生病的消息見諸媒體之後,就常常有各路人馬上門,提供各式各樣的偏方、設備,能量床、健康襪等等,相信人性本善的她,就在生病最脆弱的時候,被詐騙高達一千萬元以上。加上莫名的流言蜚語,以及永無止境的劇痛清創,讓張淳淳數度想要一死了之。

她曾經想過跳樓自殺,但醫院的頂樓都有管制,她上不去。後來「我就每天偷藏一顆安眠藥,有一天,算一算共藏了二十顆,我就想應該夠了吧,當晚把所有遺言都用錄音錄好了之後,就把藥吃下去,沒想到因為那藥的效力太低,我只是多睡了六、七小時而已。」

[NT:PAGE=$]冷靜下來的張淳淳,開始面對現實,「那一天是聖誕節,我找律師來,想寫生前遺囑,我不想要什麼都沒安排好,就突然的走了。」沒想到,這個動作,卻讓一旁張淳淳的母親悲從中來,一度消失。

擔心媽媽想不開,已住院一年多還未痊癒的她,辦了出院手續,她到叔叔在基隆的一塊山坡地找到媽媽,她告訴媽媽:「我一定會勇敢,一定會好起來!」好言相勸媽媽和她一起回家。

「我才發現,棄械投降的消極態度,對我的母親和孩子,傷害很大。」從此,張淳淳改變態度,決定與病毒和平相處。「我現在每天唱聖歌給傷口聽、和傷口講話,我會說:『你要乖喔,你要穿迷你裙喔』。」她現在也會告訴小孩:「媽媽一定要做一個奇蹟。人家說不會好,我就一定要好。」

「這個病教會我,要懂得抗壓。」張淳淳發現,每次她只要情緒不好,壓力大時,傷口就會發作得更嚴重。「如果前一天法院要出庭,隔天就一定會長出來。」現在的張淳淳抱著無與倫比的樂觀,「再大的挫折也影響不到我,踩到狗屎,都會說我太幸運了,連狗屎都會愛上我的鞋。」

這場大病,也改變張淳淳對金錢的態度。過去的她,以為認真工作賺錢,是成功的象徵。但是,生病之後,常常有人衝進來,向她兜售各式各樣的產品。一直到被詐財一千萬元,還遭到對方恐嚇,「那一刻,我突然覺得,『錢財是萬惡的淵藪』。我開始痛恨,我這麼努力,結果擁有的卻是會吸引別人作惡、讓人嫉妒的東西。」

■改變  學會抗壓、不用生命換財富

「人生賺那麼多錢,結果只是讓妳住頭等病房。」白手起家的張淳淳感觸良多地表示,生病期間,她最羨慕的人,竟然是她的看護。「看到她輕輕鬆鬆就可以出去幫我買便當,我當下淚流滿面,好羨慕她。」她發現,原來做一個平常人,可以走路、睡覺、吃飯、洗澡,是多麼幸福的一件事。

「四十歲以前你折磨你的身體,四十歲以後,身體就會折磨你。」張淳淳從台大醫院窗戶往下看,捷運來來往往的人,讓她深深體悟,「若有機會好起來,不要再瘋狂的工作,不要再用生命換財富。」出院後,她改變工作的方式,以前一天工作十五小時,現在一天只花二小時,把所有事情集中起來,一次開會解決,工作更有效率。

雖然金錢讓張淳淳差點失去健康、面對人性醜陋,但是她還是保持樂觀。「我希望將我賺來的財富變成好的東西,我想用它去幫助人。」因此,第一個她想幫助的對象,就是第一位得到NTM的女孩,她想送她助聽器,讓她可以重新聽到天籟之音。

此外,張淳淳還著手成立病童圓夢協會,要幫助生病的小孩圓夢。其中有個小孩的願望,讓張淳淳很心疼。「他的願望不是玩具,而是希望爸爸打媽媽可以輕一點。」為此,單親的張淳淳還特地去拜訪這對父母,告訴他們:「你們還可以吵架,其實很幸福,不像我,連吵架的另一半都沒有。」張淳淳還送這位爸爸一副拳擊手套,「你要是生氣時,就打沙包。」得知這對夫妻常因為經濟問題吵架,張淳淳也教他們工作的方法,幫助他們找尋工作機會。

這場大病,除了讓張淳淳學會寬容,也學會珍惜簡單的幸福。好友兼生意夥伴徐文斌表示:「她以前是工作狂,別人下班,她卻還繼續工作。」現在的張淳淳,希望把時間留給小孩、家人與朋友。「現在只要可以幫孩子準備早餐,我就覺得很幸福。」

出院後,靠著練自發氣功與心情調適,張淳淳的膿瘡傷口已經從九十九個降到五個,她每天自己清創。採訪當天,她帶著iPad播放清創的影片給我們看,當膿包與血水從傷口流出來的剎那,令人不忍卒睹,從她的有色絲襪中,隱約可以看到大腿上傷口的疤痕,但她卻泰然自若,顯然,她已學會與疾病和平共處。「我很幸運,上帝讓我體會死亡,更幸運的是,它讓我沒死,還可以有機會看林書豪打籃球。」

採訪末了,我們對她說「要加油哦!」她微笑說:「我一定會的!」病魔雖未遠離,但她已有一顆勇敢奮戰的心!
