After all, the S&P 500's P/E climbed to 30 and earnings peaked only twenty years ago and now. Admittedly, the US stock market bull market may continue for some time, but it is clearly not advisable for investors to remain cautious and vigilant.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6f413590001cd843da7ab41f47554741\" tg-width=\"1080\" tg-height=\"718\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Last Friday, boosted by strong confidence in the prospects for economic recovery, the S&P 500 index once again broke its historical closing record. This means that the US stock market has reached a delicate juncture – P/E is extremely high, with earnings per share reaching a historic high. This has only happened twice in history, in September 2000 and now. Based on the closing level of 4185.47 points, the index has reached above 30 relative to \"normal\" earnings (see below).</p><p>At first glance, a P/E of 30 doesn't seem too scary. After all, last June, the most basic version of the P/E, namely the P/E based on the net profit records of the past four quarters under GAAP, once reached 31. At that time, the market was about 26% lower than it is now. By the end of the fourth quarter of last year, P/E had reached nearly 40. However, this number did not bother the bulls at the time; in fact, the S&P 500 index entered a party mode from then on.</p><p>The key point is that, against the backdrop of the economy being deeply tormented by the pandemic, using distorted profits to measure whether stock prices are expensive or low has completely lost its meaning. For example, from the fourth quarter of 2019 to the fourth quarter of 2020, one-third of corporate profits vanished, causing various valuation indicators to soar to extremely high levels.</p><p>It is obvious that as the pandemic crisis gradually becomes a thing of the past, corporate profits will rebound sharply from their lows. To determine whether current stock prices are in the expensive or low range on the price spectrum, and then predict the future direction of the stock market based on this, we must first obtain a key reference point: \"normalized profits\". Specifically, when the recovery finally materializes, S&P companies are most likely to make a profit. Here, you can use the earnings per share data for the fourth quarter of 2019, which was $139.47 after annualization.</p><p>There are two main reasons for selecting data from 2019. First, profits in 2019 not only reached an absolute record high, but were also at a historically high level relative to sales and other projects. This means that it will be much more difficult for the truly normalized profits to surpass their level in the future. Although the bulls might insist that a 30% P/E is not a problem, because 2021 profits would even dwarf 2019.</p><p>Secondly, even under the strong economy in 2019, quarterly profits remained largely unchanged, which means that corporate profits have reached a very high level relative to fundamentals, so there is little room for further profit growth. Even now, Wall Street analysts, who have always been known for their ultra-optimism, generally only expect annualized earnings per share in the second quarter of 2021 to reach $139, the same as in the fourth quarter of 2019. In short, in terms of corporate profits, a return to that peak is the most likely scenario to occur in 2021.</p><p>Historically, the S&P 500's unemployment rate exceeding 30% has occurred during periods of significant decline or even collapse in earnings, with the only exception being the current one. For example, in the fourth quarter of 1999, when the peak of the dot-com bubble was approaching, the P/E index reached 30.5, and at that time, earnings per share were at a historically high level, which was tantamount to sounding an alarm. Investors are essentially offering more than $30 for every $1 of profit, which is already at its limit and is unlikely to go any further.</p><p>Although earnings per share persisted for a while afterward, reaching a new high of $53.70 in the third quarter of 2000, they did not return to that level for the next four years. The record profits came as the S&P 500 also reached a near-record high of 1,518 points on September 1, 2000. At that time, the index had risen by 120% in the previous four years. In short, the most suitable time to compare it with the present is perhaps the period of 2000. After all, there are only two times when the S&P 500 index has peaked at both its earnings per share and its points.</p><p>Twenty years ago, on September 1, 2000, the traditional P/E of the S&P 500 was 26.75. From this perspective, today's P/E is 30, which is 12% higher than before. However, P/E alone clearly cannot reflect the overall picture of the market. For example, if we take fundamentals as a reference, earnings per share in 2000 were actually higher than in 2021. From this perspective, the P/E at the time was actually higher than it appeared because profits were destined to decline, while the P/E today is actually lower than it appears because profit levels will rise significantly.</p><p>Although the various factors that need to be taken into account are complex, with positive and negative factors intersecting, overall, corporate profit levels in the fourth quarter of 2019 looked similar to those at the peak of the tech bubble, both at the highs of their respective cycles, and even higher. For example, in 2019, the S&P 500's total earnings were equivalent to 5.4% of national income, one percentage point higher than the 4.4% in the four quarters ending in September 2000. In terms of the ratio of operating profit to sales, the so-called operating profit margin, the figure in 2019 reached 11.1%, which is 4 percentage points higher than the cycle 20 years ago. However, the index's return on equity was indeed better twenty years ago than in 2019, at 17.5% compared to 15.5%.</p><p>While not all, most indicators clearly show that corporate profits in 2019 were relatively higher than in 2000. For now, let's be conservative and assume that the two are on the same level. In conclusion, these are the only two periods in US stock market history where P/E reached very high levels around 30, while earnings reached historic highs. What clues can be gleaned from this comparison about the current and future of the S&P 500?</p><p>If investors had already entered the market, then the fact that the P/E climbed all the way to 30 during the stock market boom is certainly good news for them. However, if investors are only now preparing to enter the market, or if they are preparing not to cash in on their profits and continue to hold large U.S. stock indexes, then this is not good news for them. In this regard, it could not be clearer to look at what happened after September 1, 2000. The S&P 500 entered a long downward trend, falling to 801 points on March 11, 2003, a loss of 47% in the process. It was only seven years later, in September 2007, that the index returned to the level of September 2000.</p><p>As is well known, after that, due to the global financial crisis, another new downward channel awaited the index, and it was already March 2013 when it climbed above 1500 points again. In other words, over a twelve-year period, if Dividend returns are not counted, the return that the index can provide to investors is a huge zero.</p><p>Of course, no one can accurately predict whether the US stock market will experience a crash similar to the one after the bursting of the dot-com bubble. Currently, the bulls expect that the US stock market will enter full-speed sailing mode driven by two favorable factors: rapidly growing corporate profits will significantly exceed those of 2019, and ultra-low interest rates will continue to be maintained in the coming years, providing continuous support.</p><p>Of course, neither of these possibilities can be completely ruled out, but objectively speaking, neither is highly probable. As for how much benefit to gain from either, the probability will decrease further. First, let's look at corporate profits. As mentioned earlier, peak profits in 2019 were equivalent to 5.4% of national income, reaching a historic high. For profits to grow faster than GDP, as Wall Street expects, it means that the relative proportion of profits needs to be further increased, which is obviously difficult to expect.</p><p>Moreover, by the end of last week, the total market capitalization of the S&P 500 relative to national income had reached a staggering 161%, nearly a quarter higher than 130% in 2000 and nearly double the average figure of the past two decades. This means that increasing the profit share will become even more difficult.</p><p>Now, wages are finally starting to rise after years of stagnation, and corporate tax rates are likely to increase significantly during the Biden administration. Under these circumstances, maintaining profits above 160% of national income requires further profit expansion, and expecting profit expansion to continue is far too difficult a task.</p><p>As for interest rates, the bulls are hoping that the 10-year Treasury Bond yield will continue to rise at a rate lower than the GDP growth rate over the next few years. This is the premise of all expectations, but unfortunately, such a thing has rarely happened in history. The fact is that real interest rates, adjusted for inflation, normally rise at the same rate as economic growth, and the cycles in which real interest rates turn negative are often extremely short.</p><p>The most reasonable interpretation of the fact that today's yields are even lower than the inflation rate is that this is just a historical exception, a special phenomenon that occurred after the economy suffered a severe pandemic that is only happening once in many years.</p><p>In conclusion, it's best to respect history. After all, the S&P 500 P/E climbed to 30 and peaked in profits only twenty years ago and now. Admittedly, the US stock market bull market may continue for some time, but it is clearly not advisable for investors to remain cautious and vigilant.</p>","source":"txmg","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>The alarm went off!

的130%还要高出近四分之一，较之过去二十年的平均数字更是高出近一倍，这就意味着，利润占比想要提升，难度还将进一步增大。现在，工资在停滞多年后终于开始上涨，而企业税率很可能在拜登政府任内大幅度提升，在这种情况下，盈利要保持高过国民收入160%的水平，就已经需要利润进一步扩张了，指望利润扩张再扩张，这任务未免太过艰难。至于利率方面，牛派所指望的是，未来几年当中，十年期国债收益率的上涨速度将持续低于国内生产总值的增长速度，这是一切预期的前提，但遗憾的是，这样的事情在历史上极少发生。事实是，根据通货膨胀调整后的真实利率在正常情况下，其上涨速度是与经济增长同步的\"，而真实利率变成负数的周期，往往都极为短暂。今天收益率甚至不及通货膨胀率的现象，最合理的解读只能是，这只是一个历史的例外，是一种经济遭受多少年都仅此一次的严重疫情打击后，出现的特殊现象。总而言之，大家最好还是尊重一下历史，毕竟标普500指数市盈率攀升到30，且盈利见顶的情况，历史上只在二十年前和现在出现过。诚然，美股牛市可能还会继续一段时间，但是投资者不保持谨慎，不保持警惕，显然是不可取的。","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{".DJI":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":4866,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":344038291,"gmtCreate":1618359355413,"gmtModify":1704709572707,"author":{"id":"3557305548001793","authorId":"3557305548001793","name":"Ikhas","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a0fd7b69b3c00ecf9cc780ede0cf5943","crmLevel":8,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3557305548001793","idStr":"3557305548001793"},"themes":[],"title":"","htmlText":"soaring

It takes 5 to 10 years to turn them into \"overnight success,\" with dozens of setbacks and course corrections along the way.</p><p><b>So, choose something you're passionate about and get started.</b></p><p><b>Slow and fast compliance</b></p><p>Duan Yongping once said, \"Slow is fast.\"</p><p>Coinbase is not a case of rapid rise and wild growth. On the contrary, although it was founded earlier, its trading volume has far surpassed that of its successors.</p><p>If we compare global cryptocurrency exchanges to a classroom, then Coinbase is a typical \"good student\":<b>Despite his average grades, he was honest and obedient, and was well-liked by his teachers.</b></p><p>At the crossroads of growth speed and compliance, Coinbase chose compliance.</p><p>Coinbase has been investing heavily in obtaining regulatory licenses, holding Money Transmitter licenses in all 50 states in the United States. It is also one of the few exchanges to hold a BitLicense issued by New York State specifically for digital currency exchanges, and has obtained licenses to trade legal tender in 33 countries and has established payment channels.</p><p>In addition to its exchange business, Coinbase has also applied for and acquired licenses on a large scale in the upstream and downstream of the industry chain. Currently, Coinbase holds a series of financial licenses, including payments, savings, loans, financial derivatives trading, alternative asset trading, brokerage trading, and investment advisory.</p><p>Previously, internal employees revealed that Coinbase's compliance team once numbered nearly one-third of the company, occupying a large amount of the company's resources. This led to Coinbase's high transaction fees and insufficient investment in technology, operations, and user experience.</p><p>Due to compliance, Coinbase cannot offer trading in a large number of cryptocurrencies, nor does it offer derivatives trading such as contracts, resulting in it lagging far behind similar exchanges outside the United States in terms of trading volume.</p><p>In Coinbase's compliance process, former Chief Legal Officer Brian Brooks played a pivotal role, working with various regulatory agencies to spearhead the establishment of the Crypto Rating Council (CRC), an industry alliance.</p><p>In 2020, Brian Brooks was hired as the supervisor.<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/BAC\">Bank of America</a>The head of the U.S. Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC).</p><p>Coinbase's compliance-focused operating strategy did not allow it to achieve exponential growth in trading volume and finances in the short term. However, due to its compliant operations and regulatory recognition, it is far ahead of other similar companies in accessing the mainstream financial sector, laying a solid foundation for its long-term development in the US market.</p><p>After completing its compliance infrastructure, Coinbase, which had been delayed in fulfilling its obligations, finally ushered in a spring of harvest in 2021.</p><p>Coinbase has long been \"critically acclaimed but not commercially successful,\" only achieving its first profit in 2017. In 2019, it suffered a net loss of $30 million, but it turned a profit with a net profit of $322 million in 2020.</p><p>In the first quarter of 2021, Coinbase experienced a surge in performance, achieving revenue of $1.8 billion, a surge of 844% compared to the same period last year, and net profit approaching $800 million.</p><p>All of this is inseparable from Coinbase's early compliance efforts.</p><p><b>Building the Future</b></p><p>Coinbase's slow and stable performance also stems from Brian Armstrong's long-term planning.<b>The exchange business is a means to an end, not Coinbase's ultimate goal or destination.</b></p><p>In 2016, Brian Armstrong predicted the development of blockchain in the next few years based on the historical development patterns of the Internet. He divided his future of the blockchain world into four main stages and formulated a development blueprint for Coinbase over the next ten years based on what Coinbase could do at each stage.<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a8b4e8f8597b30239154d9904b4ec5b9\" tg-width=\"600\" tg-height=\"173\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><b>Phase 1 (Agreement Phase): Development Agreement (serving 1 million people)</b></p><p>During this phase, new protocols (Bitcoin, Ethereum, etc.) were created, and people began to improve them.</p><p>Open-source communities are developed around each protocol, and in some cases, these protocols are sponsored and helped by enterprises. The race for protocols has begun, and it remains to be seen which protocol can be scaled up and attract application developers.</p><p>Coinbase will not participate in this phase of development, but will only maintain close cooperation with some excellent players.</p><p><b>Phase 2 (Infrastructure): Establish a digital currency exchange (serving 10 million people)</b></p><p>According to Brain Armstrong, investment or speculation is an indispensable initiation and acceleration mechanism for the future establishment of blockchain payment networks, and therefore exchange business is indispensable.</p><p>Initially, Coinbase was just a wallet. Later, it established the GDAX exchange for institutional and professional investors, which is now Coinbase Pro. This forms Coinbase's core business, and Coinbase will use the revenue from this phase to invest in the next phase of its plans, while continuing to expand these businesses to more countries.</p><p><b>Phase 3 (User Portal): Establish a portal for digital currency applications (serving 100 million people)</b></p><p>When consumers start using blockchain applications (dApps), they need a simple user interface and portal. In the internet world, the portal is HTML and a Web browser, which are built on the TCP/IP protocol.</p><p>In the blockchain world, Coinbase believes it will be a similar product to a WEB browser that has not yet been developed, and its underlying structure may be a wallet completely controlled by the user.</p><p>This will lower the barrier to entry for ordinary people to use it and reduce the difficulty of developing blockchain applications.</p><p>Coinbase will participate in this phase by establishing or investing in related teams.</p><p><b>Phase 4 (Decentralized Applications): Building an open financial system application (serving 1 billion people)</b></p><p>Brian Armstrong believes that the existing traditional financial system will be rebuilt into an open network accessible to users worldwide, with future applications including:</p><p>Loans (mortgages, small business loans, microloans, etc.) Venture capital (seed investment, traditional VCs, risky debt, etc.) Investments (stocks, index funds, savings accounts, etc.) Identity and reputation (ID cards, identity verification, credit scores, etc.) Remittances (cross-border remittances) Merchant processing (retail, online orders) Coinbase will participate in this phase by building teams, acquiring and investing in various companies, and Coinbase will also build developer tools and work with regulators to draft regulatory solutions suitable for this industry.</p><p>In summary, in Brian Armstrong's plan, exchanges are only the first step in building an ecosystem, and the money earned from exchanges will continue to be used to participate in the next phase of infrastructure construction and investment, thereby ultimately securing a place in an open financial system for billions of people.</p><p>In 2016, Brian Armstrong believed they were at the end of the second phase, but still in the early stages of blockchain.</p><p>Subsequently, Coinbase firmly executed this plan, upgrading Gdax trading to Coinbase Pro, targeting institutional users, and continuously expanding its reach through acquisitions:</p><p>They developed the Wallet app Toshi, which was later renamed Coinbase Wallet; Acquired Cipher Browse, an Ethereum dApp browser and wallet; Acquisition of Ethereum P2P trading platform Paradex; Acquisition of Xapo's custody business; Acquisition of Tagomi, a lead brokerage platform for digital asset trading; Acquired Routefire, a crypto trading infrastructure provider; Acquisition of Bison Trails, a blockchain infrastructure provider; Acquisition of cryptocurrency task website Earn.com... Acquisition of three licensed financial services companies, securities dealers Keystone Capital, Venovate Marketlpace, and Digital Wealth LLC. Going public is not the end or goal of Coinbase. Everything Coinbase is doing now is still preparing for the fourth phase, building an open financial system for the Coinbase ecosystem.</p><p><b>The \"American Dream\" of Cryptocurrency</b></p><p>Coinbase's success is difficult to replicate.</p><p>Lei Jun often says that even pigs can fly when they stand at the forefront of the cryptocurrency trend. There are many pigs that can fly when they stand at the forefront of the cryptocurrency trend, but there is only one Coinbase. Because it is in the United States, why don't China, Japan, and South Korea have \"Coinbase\"?</p><p><b>The United States still maintains monetary hegemony, is the center of global capital markets, and has gradually gained pricing power in Bitcoin.</b></p><p>In terms of regulation, China, the United States, and Japan have different regulatory approaches.</p><p>After 1994, \"heavy chain suppression of cryptocurrencies\" became the main theme of China's blockchain world.</p><p>China defines blockchain as a<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/III\">Information services</a>The technology is regulated by the Cyberspace Administration of China, while the financial risks that may arise from blockchain and cryptocurrencies are regulated by the People's Bank of China.</p><p>The main regulatory agencies in the United States include the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC).</p><p>Regarding token issuance and exchanges, the United States has not adopted a one-size-fits-all approach. Instead, it has included utility tokens and securities tokens in its respective regulatory systems.

It takes 5 to 10 years to turn them into \"overnight success,\" with dozens of setbacks and course corrections along the way.</p><p><b>So, choose something you're passionate about and get started.</b></p><p><b>Slow and fast compliance</b></p><p>Duan Yongping once said, \"Slow is fast.\"</p><p>Coinbase is not a case of rapid rise and wild growth. On the contrary, although it was founded earlier, its trading volume has far surpassed that of its successors.</p><p>If we compare global cryptocurrency exchanges to a classroom, then Coinbase is a typical \"good student\":<b>Despite his average grades, he was honest and obedient, and was well-liked by his teachers.</b></p><p>At the crossroads of growth speed and compliance, Coinbase chose compliance.</p><p>Coinbase has been investing heavily in obtaining regulatory licenses, holding Money Transmitter licenses in all 50 states in the United States. It is also one of the few exchanges to hold a BitLicense issued by New York State specifically for digital currency exchanges, and has obtained licenses to trade legal tender in 33 countries and has established payment channels.</p><p>In addition to its exchange business, Coinbase has also applied for and acquired licenses on a large scale in the upstream and downstream of the industry chain. Currently, Coinbase holds a series of financial licenses, including payments, savings, loans, financial derivatives trading, alternative asset trading, brokerage trading, and investment advisory.</p><p>Previously, internal employees revealed that Coinbase's compliance team once numbered nearly one-third of the company, occupying a large amount of the company's resources. This led to Coinbase's high transaction fees and insufficient investment in technology, operations, and user experience.</p><p>Due to compliance, Coinbase cannot offer trading in a large number of cryptocurrencies, nor does it offer derivatives trading such as contracts, resulting in it lagging far behind similar exchanges outside the United States in terms of trading volume.</p><p>In Coinbase's compliance process, former Chief Legal Officer Brian Brooks played a pivotal role, working with various regulatory agencies to spearhead the establishment of the Crypto Rating Council (CRC), an industry alliance.</p><p>In 2020, Brian Brooks was hired as the supervisor.<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/BAC\">Bank of America</a>The head of the U.S. Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC).</p><p>Coinbase's compliance-focused operating strategy did not allow it to achieve exponential growth in trading volume and finances in the short term. However, due to its compliant operations and regulatory recognition, it is far ahead of other similar companies in accessing the mainstream financial sector, laying a solid foundation for its long-term development in the US market.</p><p>After completing its compliance infrastructure, Coinbase, which had been delayed in fulfilling its obligations, finally ushered in a spring of harvest in 2021.</p><p>Coinbase has long been \"critically acclaimed but not commercially successful,\" only achieving its first profit in 2017. In 2019, it suffered a net loss of $30 million, but it turned a profit with a net profit of $322 million in 2020.</p><p>In the first quarter of 2021, Coinbase experienced a surge in performance, achieving revenue of $1.8 billion, a surge of 844% compared to the same period last year, and net profit approaching $800 million.</p><p>All of this is inseparable from Coinbase's early compliance efforts.</p><p><b>Building the Future</b></p><p>Coinbase's slow and stable performance also stems from Brian Armstrong's long-term planning.<b>The exchange business is a means to an end, not Coinbase's ultimate goal or destination.</b></p><p>In 2016, Brian Armstrong predicted the development of blockchain in the next few years based on the historical development patterns of the Internet. He divided his future of the blockchain world into four main stages and formulated a development blueprint for Coinbase over the next ten years based on what Coinbase could do at each stage.<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a8b4e8f8597b30239154d9904b4ec5b9\" tg-width=\"600\" tg-height=\"173\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><b>Phase 1 (Agreement Phase): Development Agreement (serving 1 million people)</b></p><p>During this phase, new protocols (Bitcoin, Ethereum, etc.) were created, and people began to improve them.</p><p>Open-source communities are developed around each protocol, and in some cases, these protocols are sponsored and helped by enterprises. The race for protocols has begun, and it remains to be seen which protocol can be scaled up and attract application developers.</p><p>Coinbase will not participate in this phase of development, but will only maintain close cooperation with some excellent players.</p><p><b>Phase 2 (Infrastructure): Establish a digital currency exchange (serving 10 million people)</b></p><p>According to Brain Armstrong, investment or speculation is an indispensable initiation and acceleration mechanism for the future establishment of blockchain payment networks, and therefore exchange business is indispensable.</p><p>Initially, Coinbase was just a wallet. Later, it established the GDAX exchange for institutional and professional investors, which is now Coinbase Pro. This forms Coinbase's core business, and Coinbase will use the revenue from this phase to invest in the next phase of its plans, while continuing to expand these businesses to more countries.</p><p><b>Phase 3 (User Portal): Establish a portal for digital currency applications (serving 100 million people)</b></p><p>When consumers start using blockchain applications (dApps), they need a simple user interface and portal. In the internet world, the portal is HTML and a Web browser, which are built on the TCP/IP protocol.</p><p>In the blockchain world, Coinbase believes it will be a similar product to a WEB browser that has not yet been developed, and its underlying structure may be a wallet completely controlled by the user.</p><p>This will lower the barrier to entry for ordinary people to use it and reduce the difficulty of developing blockchain applications.</p><p>Coinbase will participate in this phase by establishing or investing in related teams.</p><p><b>Phase 4 (Decentralized Applications): Building an open financial system application (serving 1 billion people)</b></p><p>Brian Armstrong believes that the existing traditional financial system will be rebuilt into an open network accessible to users worldwide, with future applications including:</p><p>Loans (mortgages, small business loans, microloans, etc.) Venture capital (seed investment, traditional VCs, risky debt, etc.) Investments (stocks, index funds, savings accounts, etc.) Identity and reputation (ID cards, identity verification, credit scores, etc.) Remittances (cross-border remittances) Merchant processing (retail, online orders) Coinbase will participate in this phase by building teams, acquiring and investing in various companies, and Coinbase will also build developer tools and work with regulators to draft regulatory solutions suitable for this industry.</p><p>In summary, in Brian Armstrong's plan, exchanges are only the first step in building an ecosystem, and the money earned from exchanges will continue to be used to participate in the next phase of infrastructure construction and investment, thereby ultimately securing a place in an open financial system for billions of people.</p><p>In 2016, Brian Armstrong believed they were at the end of the second phase, but still in the early stages of blockchain.</p><p>Subsequently, Coinbase firmly executed this plan, upgrading Gdax trading to Coinbase Pro, targeting institutional users, and continuously expanding its reach through acquisitions:</p><p>They developed the Wallet app Toshi, which was later renamed Coinbase Wallet; Acquired Cipher Browse, an Ethereum dApp browser and wallet; Acquisition of Ethereum P2P trading platform Paradex; Acquisition of Xapo's custody business; Acquisition of Tagomi, a lead brokerage platform for digital asset trading; Acquired Routefire, a crypto trading infrastructure provider; Acquisition of Bison Trails, a blockchain infrastructure provider; Acquisition of cryptocurrency task website Earn.com... Acquisition of three licensed financial services companies, securities dealers Keystone Capital, Venovate Marketlpace, and Digital Wealth LLC. Going public is not the end or goal of Coinbase. Everything Coinbase is doing now is still preparing for the fourth phase, building an open financial system for the Coinbase ecosystem.</p><p><b>The \"American Dream\" of Cryptocurrency</b></p><p>Coinbase's success is difficult to replicate.</p><p>Lei Jun often says that even pigs can fly when they stand at the forefront of the cryptocurrency trend. There are many pigs that can fly when they stand at the forefront of the cryptocurrency trend, but there is only one Coinbase. Because it is in the United States, why don't China, Japan, and South Korea have \"Coinbase\"?</p><p><b>The United States still maintains monetary hegemony, is the center of global capital markets, and has gradually gained pricing power in Bitcoin.</b></p><p>In terms of regulation, China, the United States, and Japan have different regulatory approaches.</p><p>After 1994, \"heavy chain suppression of cryptocurrencies\" became the main theme of China's blockchain world.</p><p>China defines blockchain as a<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/III\">Information services</a>The technology is regulated by the Cyberspace Administration of China, while the financial risks that may arise from blockchain and cryptocurrencies are regulated by the People's Bank of China.</p><p>The main regulatory agencies in the United States include the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC).</p><p>Regarding token issuance and exchanges, the United States has not adopted a one-size-fits-all approach. Instead, it has included utility tokens and securities tokens in its respective regulatory systems. The issuance of securities tokens requires registration in accordance with securities laws, while exchanges need to obtain licenses to operate.</p><p>At the same time, the US SEC has frequently taken action to crack down on various illegal ICOs.</p><p>Although Japan is one of the few countries in the world that provides legal protection for digital assets, and the establishment and operation of cryptocurrency exchanges are entirely legal and compliant, due to stringent regulations...<b>The lack of currency listing authority on Japanese stock exchanges makes it more difficult for domestic projects to raise funds and trade, and to some extent hinders the development of innovative projects.</b></p><p>Today, Coinbase has become, to some extent, a model for the US cryptocurrency regulatory balancing act.</p><p>Secondly, the United States, as the world's largest economy, provides Coinbase with ample space.

Armstrong偶然间阅读了比特币白皮书，从此打开了加密货币的大门，他以9美元的价格购买了1000多枚比特币，在比特币价格一度跌到2美元的时候，Armstrong并没有离场，而是一直靠编写代码来购买比特币，与此同时，他觉察到了其中的创业机会，也许自己可以创建一个比特币公司？2年后的夏天，Brian与与合作伙伴Fred Ehrsam共同创建了Coinbase，以钱包的形式。两人设想，Coinbase将成为一个比特币市场，人们可以在这里购买加密货币。随后，他们将Coinbase登记入了Y Combinator创业孵化器项目，在 YC 路演日上，Brian Armstrong用了十一页PPT描绘 Coinbase 理想与愿景，“Coinbase之于比特币，就好比 iTunes之于MP3 。”2017年，当Brian Armstrong回顾这十一页Pitch Deck时，颇有感想，写下了这段话：伟大的事物都是从卑微的起点开始的。你身边看到的大多数东西，一开始不过是一个简单的想法和一个粗糙的原型，要把它变成 \"一夜成功\"，需要5到10年的时间，一路上要经历几十次挫折和路线修正。所以，选择一件你热衷的事情，开始吧。合规的慢与快段永平曾言，“慢就是快”。Coinbase并不是快速崛起，野蛮生长的案例，相反，尽管它成立较早，但是交易量远被它的后辈们超越。如果把全球加密货币交易所比作一间教室，那么Coinbase就是典型的“好学生”：尽管成绩一般，但是老实听话，深受老师的喜欢。在发展速度与合规的十字路口，Coinbase选择了合规。Coinbase一直在获得监管牌照方面不惜投入重金，拥有美国50个州的转账交易牌照（Money Transmitter License），同时成为为数不多的、拥有纽约州专门为数字货币交易所颁发的BitLicense的交易所，在33个国家取得合法交易法币的许可并打通支付渠道。除了交易所业务，Coinbase在产业链上下游也大规模申请和收购牌照， 目前Coinbase拥有支付、储蓄、贷款、金融衍生品交易、另类资产交易、券商交易和投资顾问等一系列金融牌照。此前据内部员工透露，Coinbase合规团队人数一度接近公司的1/3，占据公司大量资源，这也导致Coinbase手续费高昂，在技术、运营和用户体验上投入不足。因为合规，Coinbase无法提供大量币种交易，也没有提供合约这样的衍生品交易，导致其在交易量方面远远落后于美国境外的同类交易所。在Coinbase的合规进程中，前任首席法务官Brian Brooks发挥了举足轻重的作用，配合各个监管机构，牵头建设了行业联盟性质的加密数字货币评级委员会（Crypto Rating Council，CRC）。2020年，Brian Brooks被聘请担任为监管美国银行业的美国货币监理局（OCC）负责人。Coinbase专注合规的经营战略并没有让它在短期内实现交易量以及财务方面的指数级增长，但是由于它的合规经营，并且受到监管的认可，它在接入主流金融领域方面遥遥领先于其它同类公司，奠定了它在美国市场中长期发展的坚实基础。在完成合规的基础建设之后，延迟满足的Coinbase终于在2021年迎来收获的春天。Coinbase长期“叫好不叫座”，2017年才实现首次盈利，2019年净亏损3000万美元，直到2020年牛市来临，扭亏为盈，净利润3.22亿美元。2021一季度，Coinbase业绩全面爆发，实现营收18亿美元，较去年同期暴增844%，净利润接近8亿美元。这一切都离不开Coinbase早期的合规建设。建设未来Coinbase的慢与稳，也源于Brian Armstrong的长期规划，交易所业务是手段，而不是Coinbase的最终目的与归宿。2016年，Brian Armstrong 根据互联网的历史发展规律，预测了区块链未来几年的发展，他将其区块链世界未来划分为四个主要的阶段，并根据每个阶段 Coinbase能做的事情，制定了 Coinbase未来十年的发展蓝图。第一阶段（协议阶段）：开发协议（服务100万人）在这个阶段，新的协议（比特币、以太坊等）被创造了出来，人们开始改进这些协议。开源社区会围绕着每一个协议进行开发，在某些情况下，这些协议会得到企业的赞助和帮助。协议的竞赛已开始上演，究竟哪个协议可以得到扩展，并吸引应用开发者，仍有待于观察。Coinbase 不会参与这个阶段的开发，只会和一些优秀的玩家保持紧密合作。第二阶段（基础设施）：建立数字货币交易所（服务1000万人）在Brain Armstrong看来，投资或者说投机对于未来区块链的支付网络建立是不可或缺的初始化加速机制，因此交易所业务不可或缺。最初，Coinbase只是钱包，后来为机构和职业投资者建立了GDAX交易所，也就是如今的Coinbase Pro，这构成了Coinbase的核心业务，Coinbase 将用这阶段的收入来投资下一阶段计划，同时继续将这些业务扩展到更多的国家。第三阶段（用户入口）：为数字货币应用建立入口（服务1亿人）消费者在开始使用区块链应用（dApp）时，他们需要的是一个简单的用户界面和入口，互联网世界里的入口是HTML与Web浏览器，这是建立在TCP/IP协议之上。在区块链世界里，Coinbase 认为它会是尚未开发出来的WEB浏览器同类产品，其底层可能是一个完全由用户控制的钱包。这将降低普通人使用它的门槛，并且降低区块链应用的开发难度。Coinbase 将通过建立或投资相关的团队来参与这一阶段。第四阶段（去中心化应用）：打造一个开放式金融系统应用（服务10亿人）Brian Armstrong 认为现有的传统金融系统将被重建为一个开放式的网络，可供全球用户访问，未来需要的应用包括：贷款（抵押贷款、小企业贷款、小额贷款等）风险投资（种子投资、传统VC，风险债务等）投资（股票、指数型基金、储蓄账户等）身份与声誉（身份证、身份认证、信用评分等）汇款（跨境汇款）商户处理（零售、网络订单）Coinbase会通过建立团队、收购和投资各种公司的方式来参与这一阶段，并且Coinbase 也将建立开发者工具，并与监管机构合作来起草适合这一行业的监管方案。总结起来，在Brian Armstrong的规划中，交易所只是构建生态的第一步，并持续利用交易所赚的钱去参与下一个阶段的基础设施建设与投资，从而最终在面向十亿人的开放金融系统中占据一席之地。2016年，Brian Armstrong认为他们处于第二阶段的末尾期，但仍处于区块链的早期阶段。此后，Coinbase 坚定地执行了这个计划，把Gdax交易升级成Coinbase Pro，发力机构用户，并持续通过收购，拓宽自己的边界：开发了钱包应用 Toshi，后来改名为 Coinbase Wallet；收购以太坊dApp浏览器和钱包Cipher Browse；收购以太坊P2P交易平台Paradex；收购Xapo的托管业务；收购数字资产交易主经纪商平台Tagomi；收购加密交易基础设施提供商Routefire；收购区块链基础设施提供商Bison Trails；收购加密货币任务网站Earn.com……收购三家持牌金融服务公司，证券交易商 Keystone Capital，Venovate Marketlpace 和 Digital Wealth LLC 。……上市也不是Coinbase的终点和目的，目前Coinbase所做的一切，仍然在为第四个阶段，构建Coinbase生态的开放金融系统做准备。加密货币的“美国梦”Coinbase的成功难以复制。雷军常说，站在风口上，猪都能飞起来，站在加密货币的风口上飞起来的猪有很多，但Coinbase只有一个，因为它在美国，为什么中国、日本、韩国没有“Coinbase”？美国依然掌握了货币霸权，是全球资本市场的中心，并且逐渐得到了比特币的定价权。监管上，中国、美国、日本的监管思路不同。九四之后，“重链抑币”成为中国区块链世界的主旋律。中国将区块链定义为一种信息服务技术，监管主体是中央网信办，而对于区块链以及加密货币可能带来的金融风险，则由中国人民银行进行监管。美国的监管机构主要包括美国证券交易委员会 (SEC)、商品期货交易委员会（CFTC）。对于代币发行和交易所，美国并没有采用一刀切的方式，而是将实用型通证和证券性通证分别纳入相应监管体系，证券属性代币的发行需要依照证券法登记注册，交易所经营则需要获得牌照。与此同时，美国SEC频繁出手，打击各类非法ICO。尽管日本是全球为数不多为数字资产提供法律保障的国家之一，加密货币交易所的设立运营也完全可以合法合规，然而由于监管严苛，日本交易所没有上币权，从而导致本土项目募资和交易的难度变大，一定程度上阻碍了创新项目的发展。如今的Coinbase，一定程度上成为了美国加密货币监管平衡术下的样本。其次，美国作为全球最大的经济体，为Coinbase提供了广阔的空间，当华尔街拥抱比特币，Coinbase也因为其合规优势成为了机构们的“比特币大管家”，据Bituniverse 4月13日数据，目前Coinbase平台拥有87万枚比特币，远超币安（21.51万）和火币（25.23万）。Coinbase的崛起，背后是东方世界比特币定价权的衰落，以美国为中心的西方世界获得更多筹码以及话语权。无论是业务重心还是护城河，Coinbase都离不开身后的美国监管机构以及美国市场，Coinbase并不是去中心化的理想故事，更多是加密货币的“美国梦”。","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"COIN":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":4664,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":342319580,"gmtCreate":1618184038440,"gmtModify":1704707111115,"author":{"id":"3557305548001793","authorId":"3557305548001793","name":"Ikhas","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a0fd7b69b3c00ecf9cc780ede0cf5943","crmLevel":8,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3557305548001793","idStr":"3557305548001793"},"themes":[],"title":"","htmlText":"mega

BASIC (Beginners' All-purpose Symbolic Instruction Code).

In its early days, the company continued to develop with modifying BASIC programs as its main business.</p><p>So, do you know how the name Microsoft came about?</p><p>The word Microsoft consists of two parts: \"Microcomputer\" and \"software\".</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bd1624aa9d27000141305dda2459fa51\" tg-width=\"480\" tg-height=\"288\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>If you know DOS, this will fully expose your age!</p><p>In the 1980s,<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/IBM\">IBM</a>The company selected Microsoft to write key operating system software for its new PC—a major turning point in Microsoft's development.</p><p>However, due to time constraints and the complexity of the program, Microsoft offered $50,000 to a programmer in Seattle.<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/PDCO\">Patterson</a>They bought the right to use an operating system and then rewrote it into disk operating system software (MS-DOS).</p><p>MS-DOS is just a single-user, single-task operating system, while Windows 95, Windows 98, and Windows Me are based on DOS.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3eb22081c598a5e266f2c4c9401296b4\" tg-width=\"600\" tg-height=\"450\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>The popularization of MS-DOS in IBM-PC has achieved great success.

BASIC (Beginners' All-purpose Symbolic Instruction Code).

In its early days, the company continued to develop with modifying BASIC programs as its main business.</p><p>So, do you know how the name Microsoft came about?</p><p>The word Microsoft consists of two parts: \"Microcomputer\" and \"software\".</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bd1624aa9d27000141305dda2459fa51\" tg-width=\"480\" tg-height=\"288\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>If you know DOS, this will fully expose your age!</p><p>In the 1980s,<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/IBM\">IBM</a>The company selected Microsoft to write key operating system software for its new PC—a major turning point in Microsoft's development.</p><p>However, due to time constraints and the complexity of the program, Microsoft offered $50,000 to a programmer in Seattle.<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/PDCO\">Patterson</a>They bought the right to use an operating system and then rewrote it into disk operating system software (MS-DOS).</p><p>MS-DOS is just a single-user, single-task operating system, while Windows 95, Windows 98, and Windows Me are based on DOS.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3eb22081c598a5e266f2c4c9401296b4\" tg-width=\"600\" tg-height=\"450\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>The popularization of MS-DOS in IBM-PC has achieved great success.

Gates)与保罗·艾伦(Paul Allen)创办微软，已经过去了46个年头。\n就像46岁的中年人，微软终于熬过了中年危机，以成熟低调的姿态重回高调耀眼的科技王座。\n为了纪念共同走过的那些岁月，小编翻箱倒柜，找出了微软一路走来的历程。\n帝国的崛起\n提到微软，还得从比尔·盖茨这一风云人物说起。\n19岁的比尔·盖茨应该是最成功的哈佛辍学者。\n1975年，比尔·盖茨从哈佛大学退学，和他的高中校友保罗·艾伦一起卖BASIC（Beginners' All-purpose Symbolic Instruction Code）。BASIC是「初学者通用符号指令代码」，是一种设计给初学者使用的程序设计语言。\n\n当盖茨还在哈佛读书时，他们还曾为MITS公司的Altair编制语言。\n后来，盖茨和艾伦搬到美国新墨西哥州阿尔伯克基，并在当地一家旅馆房间里创建了微软公司，公司创立初期以修改BASIC程序为主要业务继续发展。\n那么，你知道Microsoft这个名字如何得来的吗？\nMicrosoft一词由「Microcomputer」和「software」两部分组成。\n\n如果你知道DOS，这会充分暴露你的年龄！\n20世纪80年代，IBM公司选中微软为其新PC编写关键的操作系统软件——这成为微软发展中的一个重大转折点。\n但是由于当时时间紧迫，程序复杂，微软便以5万美元的价格从西雅图的一位程序编制者帕特森手中买下了一个操作系统的使用权，再把它改写为磁盘操作系统软件（MS-DOS）。\nMS-DOS只是一个单用户单任务的操作系统，像Windows 95、Windows 98和Windows Me等正是以DOS为操作系统载体。\n\nMS-DOS在IBM-PC机的普及取得了巨大的成功。其他的PC制造者都希望与IBM兼容，因此80年代，它成了PC机的标准操作系统。\n1995年，正值39岁的盖茨以129亿美元身价登顶世界首富的王座。微软当年销售收入为59亿美元，员工达到了17801人。\n实际上从1995年到2007年，盖茨连续13年《福布斯》全球首富排行榜第一，成为最大的人生赢家。\n跨世纪大作：Windows\n1983年11月10日，Windows操作系统首次登台亮相。该产品是MS-DOS操作系统的演进版，并提供了图形用户界面。\nMicrosoft Windows 1.0 于1985年正式推出，结束了微软操作系统的命令行时代。\n\n与Windows不同，MS-DOS通过使用命令来进行操作，系统根据用户输入的命令进行程序的运行。\n而Windows 1.0允许用户指向并单击以访问Windows，而不是键入MS-DOS命令。\n微软发布的Windows 1.0操作系统其实就是对MS-DOS的扩展，在当时没有受到欢迎。随着不断迭代，Windows 3.0终于迎来了最初的胜利。\n那是1989年末，微软正在努力工作，最终敲定了它所知道的迄今为止最好的Windows版本。\nWindows 3.0版通过一个新的3D斜面设计和闪亮的新图标在图形用户界面上投下了重注。\n\n正如微软当时所说，这是一个令人兴奋的产品。\n经过二十多年的发展，微软在2015年7月29日发布了如今大家都在使用的Windows 10操作系统。\n\n王者的落幕\n鲍尔默时代的微软一败再败。\n2000年比尔·盖茨把首席执行官的位置交给了曾经负责公司运营和日常管理的史蒂夫·鲍尔默，\n还给自己创建了一个新的职位：首席软件构架师。\n直到2008年，鲍尔默接替盖茨成为微软的总裁。在执掌微软的13年间，虽然鲍尔默带领微软创下了优秀的成绩：员工数增加3倍，年营收增长4倍，年利润增长10倍。\n但是，作为微软的第二任 CEO，鲍尔默遭受过很多的批评。\n\n他带领着微软的屡次尝试多以失败告终，Windows Phone 遭 iOS、Android 绞杀，Windows 8 频遭诟病，云计算难于突破。\n在鲍尔默出任微软CEO期间，微软的巨大潜力已经渗透到了软件界的方方面面，简直是所向披靡，\nWindows在PC操作系统市场的份额超过90%，微软的巨大影响已经对软件同行构成了极大的压力，把自己推上了反垄断法的被告位置。\n帝国反击：王者时代的归来\n2014年，一位46岁的印度人——萨蒂亚·纳德拉(Satya Nadella)正式接任微软第三任CEO。\n那时的微软犹如一个迟暮的巨人，难以追逐时代的步伐，而纳德拉却一手导演了微软的伟大复兴。\n\n纳德拉不仅仅是转变了微软的商业策略，还改革了微软的企业文化。他一直致力于通过改变微软的思维方式改变其运作方式。\n到现在，微软市值已经达1.83万亿美元。\n\n此后的5年中，纳德拉带领微软重新找到了方向。\n微软裁撤了前CEO鲍尔默以72亿美元收购的诺基亚手机业务，宣布历史上最大规模的裁员，裁员人数占该公司全球12多万名员工总数的14%。\n这一切取舍，全是为了将开发重心放在云端服务上。\n在纳德拉的领导下，微软削减了Windows部门的预算，并且建立了一个庞大的云计算业务——Microsoft Azure。\n\n目前，微软的云平台Azure赢得了许多大型企业客户的青睐。\n我们办公生产力软件Office也逐渐成为一个云服务，它获得了超过2.14亿订阅用户，这些用户每年都要缴纳99美元的订阅费。\n在微软内部员工看来，公司的复兴，纳德拉对企业文化的改造功不可没！\n上任CEO留下的微软正处于严重内斗之中，高管争权，团队之间遇到问题相互推卸责任。\n在《刷新——重新发现商业与未来》一书中，纳德拉直言，「商业策略转型并非他作为微软CEO的第一要务，CEO是首席执行官，更是文化执行官。」\n\n他激励微软员工成为「无所不学」（learn-it-all）的人。\n从Windows到云，纳德拉改造微软战车，成就了微软万亿美元市值。\n微软46岁，归来仍是王者。","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"MSFT":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":5388,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":340031505,"gmtCreate":1617321307907,"gmtModify":1704698689434,"author":{"id":"3557305548001793","authorId":"3557305548001793","name":"Ikhas","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a0fd7b69b3c00ecf9cc780ede0cf5943","crmLevel":8,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3557305548001793","idStr":"3557305548001793"},"themes":[],"title":"","htmlText":"industry

Hong Kong market is about to usher in the Easter holiday in early April. Based on my personal experience, the Hong Kong market tends to experience significant volatility after the Easter holiday. Therefore, in my opinion, this month is usually a \"sensitive month,\" a month that requires particular caution.</p><p>The names of Hong Kong's long holidays in April also show how unpredictable April can be—first Good Friday, then Easter. Whether there will be suffering or resurrection after April is really difficult to judge if we are not careful.</p><p><b>Sensitive moon genesis</b></p><p>There are several reasons why April is considered a sensitive month:</p><p>First, during the Easter holiday, a large amount of news can easily accumulate, but trading is not possible. Therefore, trading congestion may occur in the short term after the holiday, which can easily lead to overly stressful market conditions under the influx of information. At that time, the market may be overly optimistic or overly pessimistic, depending on the specific content of the information flow at the time.</p><p>Secondly, there is a saying in the Hong Kong market that \"May is poor, June is a disaster, and July is a turnaround,\" meaning that May and June are often months when Hong Kong stocks adjust or trading volume shrinks. In this context, using a relative performance approach, it is best to reduce positions on rallies in April, or at least avoid being overly aggressive.</p><p>Thirdly, from an economic perspective, since the previous year's performance is usually released starting in March and doesn't basically end until April, the market trend is usually not too bad due to the embellishment of listed companies' performance. However, after mid-April, as listed companies have basically completed their earnings disclosures, the effects of the earnings embellishment will gradually fade, and the market will once again show its expected direction.</p><p>A review of the WIND database reveals that since 2008, the monthly performance of the Hang Seng Index has often shown opposite trends in April and May, with the frequency of closing higher than the frequency of closing lower in April. This is easy to understand. Before the \"five poor\" period, large investors can first make a surge in prices before shorting, reaping profits on both sides.</p><p>But will the Hang Seng Index close higher again in April 2021? However, I feel less optimistic. April 2021 was very different from usual, which will be explained here.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/01bfd16d070851ad20bf3352a6a294c9\" tg-width=\"800\" tg-height=\"533\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p><b>The \"head, shoulders, and crown\" shape cannot be ignored.</b></p><p>Firstly, from a technical perspective, the Hang Seng Index has formed a \"head and shoulders top\" and broke through the \"neckline\" last Tuesday (March 23). Many readers dislike using technical indicators, especially fundamentalists of \"value investing,\" who often disdain to listen to technical analysis.</p><p>In my experience, both fundamental and technical analysis are indispensable. I conduct research on alternative investment theory and practice. Many specific alternative assets (such as stock index futures, commodity futures, gold, and even the recently popular Bitcoin) need to be analyzed using fundamental analysis methods. For example, when analyzing Bitcoin, we cannot only look at the price trend of Bitcoin, but also analyze the security, liquidity, stability of Bitnets and the degree of acceptance of digital currencies.</p><p>However, when determining the specific price direction of an asset, technical analysis is still necessary, especially when analyzing market trends. Past personal experiences constantly remind me:<b>The more efficient the market and the more liquid the financial product, the more effective its technical indicator analysis will be.</b>—The Hang Seng Index is precisely such a product, so technical analysis can fully explain the current behavior of investors and even have a certain forward-looking predictive effect.</p><p>Returning to the \"head and shoulders top\" pattern, readers who are not interested in technical analysis do not need to delve into it. However, they should at least know that once this pattern is confirmed, the Hang Seng Index's future trend is likely to undergo a significant correction. If it is confirmed that it has fallen from the \"right shoulder\" position, the possible fall after the correction will start from the right shoulder fall position, and the drop is the vertical distance from the top (head) to the neckline (the line connecting the two shoulders). From this perspective, the Hang Seng Index is likely to fall to the 25,700-26,000 range in the next step.</p><p>From a practical perspective, the head and shoulders pattern also means that even if Hong Kong stocks have rebounded recently, it is a good opportunity to reduce positions on rallies, rather than a good opportunity to build positions.</p><p>Why do Hong Kong stocks experience a head and shoulders top? This question is not important for technical analysis, because the premise of technical analysis is that the price already contains all the information (the efficient market hypothesis). Of course, if we delve deeper, we can uncover many reasons, but that is no longer the focus of this article.</p><p>By the way, although the overall technical trend of Hong Kong stocks has deteriorated, I still do not recommend shorting Hong Kong stocks. Because short selling involves many risks, it is not easy to make money, and it is not something that ordinary investors can easily grasp. The recent collective shorting of Wall Street hedge funds is a good example.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/df28ee4a6bd605e81928c8bcc2a42bde\" tg-width=\"839\" tg-height=\"579\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p><b>The crisis in Chinese concept stocks will also impact Hong Kong stocks.</b></p><p>Secondly, unlike April in previous years, April 2021 saw an increase in the delisting controversy surrounding Chinese concept stocks.</p><p>According to Hong Kong's Singularity Finance on March 27, Chinese concept stocks listed in the United States were washed out again last Friday (March 26) - marking the third consecutive time in a week that the entire sector has suffered a sharp decline. Among them,<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/BIDU\">Baidu</a>(BIDU.O) shares plunged as much as 14.9% during trading, hitting a low of $174.05;<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TME\">Tencent Music</a>(TME.N) plunged as much as 19.8% to a daily low of $16.31, a 49.4% drop from the all-time high of $32.25 just reached last Tuesday, wiping out nearly half of its market capitalization in just a few days.</p><p>Another affected unit<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/IQ\">iQiyi</a>(IQ.O) shares plunged 27.2% to $14.6 at one point during trading; And<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/GSX\">Who to learn from</a>(GSX.N) was also halved, with its share price hitting a low of $29.4 (the level at the end of May 2020).</p><p>The culprit is the Foreign Holding Company Liability Act (HFCA Act) passed by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The bill requires foreign-listed companies to also submit all required disclosure materials and information in accordance with U.S. audit requirements. If foreign companies fail to comply, they will be required to delist from U.S. exchanges.</p><p>The SEC announced on March 24 that the aforementioned bill also requires listed companies to disclose additional sensitive information, including the percentage of shares controlled by the government of their host country, whether the government has control over the company's financial interests, whether there are party members on the board of directors or senior executives of the listed company, and whether the company's articles of association are influenced by the party constitution.</p><p>These rules are equivalent to implementing the Foreign Company Accountability Act, which former US President Trump signed into law in December 2020.

Based on my personal experience, the Hong Kong market tends to experience significant volatility after the Easter holiday. Therefore, in my opinion, this month is usually a \"sensitive month,\" a month that requires particular caution.</p><p>The names of Hong Kong's long holidays in April also show how unpredictable April can be—first Good Friday, then Easter. Whether there will be suffering or resurrection after April is really difficult to judge if we are not careful.</p><p><b>Sensitive moon genesis</b></p><p>There are several reasons why April is considered a sensitive month:</p><p>First, during the Easter holiday, a large amount of news can easily accumulate, but trading is not possible. Therefore, trading congestion may occur in the short term after the holiday, which can easily lead to overly stressful market conditions under the influx of information. At that time, the market may be overly optimistic or overly pessimistic, depending on the specific content of the information flow at the time.</p><p>Secondly, there is a saying in the Hong Kong market that \"May is poor, June is a disaster, and July is a turnaround,\" meaning that May and June are often months when Hong Kong stocks adjust or trading volume shrinks. In this context, using a relative performance approach, it is best to reduce positions on rallies in April, or at least avoid being overly aggressive.</p><p>Thirdly, from an economic perspective, since the previous year's performance is usually released starting in March and doesn't basically end until April, the market trend is usually not too bad due to the embellishment of listed companies' performance. However, after mid-April, as listed companies have basically completed their earnings disclosures, the effects of the earnings embellishment will gradually fade, and the market will once again show its expected direction.</p><p>A review of the WIND database reveals that since 2008, the monthly performance of the Hang Seng Index has often shown opposite trends in April and May, with the frequency of closing higher than the frequency of closing lower in April. This is easy to understand. Before the \"five poor\" period, large investors can first make a surge in prices before shorting, reaping profits on both sides.</p><p>But will the Hang Seng Index close higher again in April 2021? However, I feel less optimistic. April 2021 was very different from usual, which will be explained here.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/01bfd16d070851ad20bf3352a6a294c9\" tg-width=\"800\" tg-height=\"533\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p><b>The \"head, shoulders, and crown\" shape cannot be ignored.</b></p><p>Firstly, from a technical perspective, the Hang Seng Index has formed a \"head and shoulders top\" and broke through the \"neckline\" last Tuesday (March 23). Many readers dislike using technical indicators, especially fundamentalists of \"value investing,\" who often disdain to listen to technical analysis.</p><p>In my experience, both fundamental and technical analysis are indispensable. I conduct research on alternative investment theory and practice. Many specific alternative assets (such as stock index futures, commodity futures, gold, and even the recently popular Bitcoin) need to be analyzed using fundamental analysis methods. For example, when analyzing Bitcoin, we cannot only look at the price trend of Bitcoin, but also analyze the security, liquidity, stability of Bitnets and the degree of acceptance of digital currencies.</p><p>However, when determining the specific price direction of an asset, technical analysis is still necessary, especially when analyzing market trends. Past personal experiences constantly remind me:<b>The more efficient the market and the more liquid the financial product, the more effective its technical indicator analysis will be.</b>—The Hang Seng Index is precisely such a product, so technical analysis can fully explain the current behavior of investors and even have a certain forward-looking predictive effect.</p><p>Returning to the \"head and shoulders top\" pattern, readers who are not interested in technical analysis do not need to delve into it. However, they should at least know that once this pattern is confirmed, the Hang Seng Index's future trend is likely to undergo a significant correction. If it is confirmed that it has fallen from the \"right shoulder\" position, the possible fall after the correction will start from the right shoulder fall position, and the drop is the vertical distance from the top (head) to the neckline (the line connecting the two shoulders). From this perspective, the Hang Seng Index is likely to fall to the 25,700-26,000 range in the next step.</p><p>From a practical perspective, the head and shoulders pattern also means that even if Hong Kong stocks have rebounded recently, it is a good opportunity to reduce positions on rallies, rather than a good opportunity to build positions.</p><p>Why do Hong Kong stocks experience a head and shoulders top? This question is not important for technical analysis, because the premise of technical analysis is that the price already contains all the information (the efficient market hypothesis). Of course, if we delve deeper, we can uncover many reasons, but that is no longer the focus of this article.</p><p>By the way, although the overall technical trend of Hong Kong stocks has deteriorated, I still do not recommend shorting Hong Kong stocks. Because short selling involves many risks, it is not easy to make money, and it is not something that ordinary investors can easily grasp. The recent collective shorting of Wall Street hedge funds is a good example.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/df28ee4a6bd605e81928c8bcc2a42bde\" tg-width=\"839\" tg-height=\"579\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p><b>The crisis in Chinese concept stocks will also impact Hong Kong stocks.</b></p><p>Secondly, unlike April in previous years, April 2021 saw an increase in the delisting controversy surrounding Chinese concept stocks.</p><p>According to Hong Kong's Singularity Finance on March 27, Chinese concept stocks listed in the United States were washed out again last Friday (March 26) - marking the third consecutive time in a week that the entire sector has suffered a sharp decline. Among them,<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/BIDU\">Baidu</a>(BIDU.O) shares plunged as much as 14.9% during trading, hitting a low of $174.05;<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TME\">Tencent Music</a>(TME.N) plunged as much as 19.8% to a daily low of $16.31, a 49.4% drop from the all-time high of $32.25 just reached last Tuesday, wiping out nearly half of its market capitalization in just a few days.</p><p>Another affected unit<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/IQ\">iQiyi</a>(IQ.O) shares plunged 27.2% to $14.6 at one point during trading; And<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/GSX\">Who to learn from</a>(GSX.N) was also halved, with its share price hitting a low of $29.4 (the level at the end of May 2020).</p><p>The culprit is the Foreign Holding Company Liability Act (HFCA Act) passed by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The bill requires foreign-listed companies to also submit all required disclosure materials and information in accordance with U.S. audit requirements. If foreign companies fail to comply, they will be required to delist from U.S. exchanges.</p><p>The SEC announced on March 24 that the aforementioned bill also requires listed companies to disclose additional sensitive information, including the percentage of shares controlled by the government of their host country, whether the government has control over the company's financial interests, whether there are party members on the board of directors or senior executives of the listed company, and whether the company's articles of association are influenced by the party constitution.</p><p>These rules are equivalent to implementing the Foreign Company Accountability Act, which former US President Trump signed into law in December 2020.

Act）。该法案要求外国上市公司也要根据美国的审计要求，提交所有该披露的材料和信息，如果外国公司不遵守，将被要求从美国交易所退市。\nSEC3月24日公布，上述法案还要求上市公司额外披露一些敏感信息：包括所在国政府控制的股份百分比、政府是否对公司的财务权益有控制权、上市公司董事会或经营高管中是否有党员、公司章程是否受党章影响等。\n这些规则相当于执行了美前任总统特朗普在2020年12月签署落实的《外国公司问责法案（Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act）》。\n有关条款，表面上是针对所有在美国挂牌的外国公司，但实际上主要针对中国。因为中国目前尚未允许中国企业将审计底稿不受限制地向境外审计机构予以披露，因此除非中美双方能在近期达成新的审计监管合作协议，否则在美上市的众多中概股，均可能将面临美国交易所除牌的风险。\n大家可能会憧憬，在美国的打压之下，将有更多中概股公司回A股或去中国香港上市，但是香港的中概股“第二上市”是以在美国上市为前提的，如果被迫从美国退市，港交所会如何处理这些中概股，目前还未见定论。\n而如果中概股公司以IPO形式重新申请在中国香港上市，则要走冗长的上市流程，这对近期港股并不构成明显的利好。\n\n宏观因素对港股的压力\n其三，利率与货币问题。2021年4月还有一个非常特殊的地方，就是美国的经济出现较明显的复苏迹象，美国10年期债券收益率屡创新高，美元指数也强劲上扬。而这两个指标，对于美国以外的投资者来说，都不是好现象。\n自2008年以来，全球的投资者早已习惯了过度宽松的流动性环境，现在突然发现流动性在自发地收缩——这无异于逼迫各大机构开始向市场上的各种资产索取更高的收益。特别是美元指数如果确认出现强劲反弹，更会逼迫投资者考虑，将资金从香港等新兴市场撤出，流向货币升值趋势明显的美国。\n但是比较难以决断的是，迄今为止的基本面因素都不支持美元走强——包括持续宽松的美国货币政策；美联储前所未有的广泛量化宽松措施；不断扩大的美国财政赤字等，这些都在清醒地告诉巿场，有必要继续维持对美元贬值的看法。在这种情况下，基本面和短期内的实际价格走势出现了背离，这为判断香港的资产价格投下了不确定性。\n至于美国国债利率，迄今为止的10年债息走势，主要体现出市场前瞻性的预期，即认为中期而言，美国的货币政策很有可能会出现变化。市场对美联储未来首次加息的预期时间点，已经从2024年，提前至2023年初。\n今年以来，美国10年债息已经稳稳地攀升至2020年初疫情暴发前1.5%水平上方，接下来，它是否会进一步上涨至2019年底的2.0%水平，以及，这种利率走势是否会进一步驱升美元升势？这会直接关系到全球投资者对于美元资产配置的方向。\n上述三个因素，没有一个不是敏感而重要的，因此，4月份建议大家需要更为敏感地应对市场信息。","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"HSI":0.9,"HSTECH":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":4765,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":355448012,"gmtCreate":1617099471236,"gmtModify":1704801955894,"author":{"id":"3557305548001793","authorId":"3557305548001793","name":"Ikhas","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a0fd7b69b3c00ecf9cc780ede0cf5943","crmLevel":8,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3557305548001793","idStr":"3557305548001793"},"themes":[],"title":"","htmlText":"infrastructure

Second, Turkey has a double deficit in its current account and fiscal deficit, which means that it is highly dependent on external sources for debt financing. The external debt burden is a long-term problem that Turkey faces and lacks sustainable income to repay its external debt. Therefore, it is very sensitive to changes in the US dollar exchange rate and interest rates. Third, Türkiye's foreign exchange reserves as a percentage of GDP are very low, and its ability to repay foreign debt and maintain its exchange rate is weak.<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fc989dfda559ebf997257c2d28f912aa\" tg-width=\"998\" tg-height=\"674\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p><b>From an external perspective, the strength of the US dollar is limited.

Firstly, it has fallen significantly from the high of over 100 in 2020. Secondly, it has not strengthened further recently. The RMB exchange rate has also performed calmly recently. Recent statements from European and American central banks indicate that monetary policy is still on an easing trend.

Furthermore, rising US Treasury yields typically occur simultaneously with rising US stocks. Therefore, given the Federal Reserve's clear statement that it will maintain its loose monetary policy...<b>The rise in US Treasury yields mainly reflects a positive economic outlook and an upward price trend, and may be accompanied by an increase in risk appetite, but does not necessarily indicate a tightening of global liquidity.</b>With US Treasury yields rising sharply and significantly, we found that the US Dollar Index only rebounded slightly to the 91-92 level, which indirectly confirms that rising US Treasury yields do not necessarily lead to a large-scale outflow of capital from emerging markets and back to the United States, thereby significantly pushing up the US dollar.</p><p>From the perspective of the US dollar's trend itself, the the US Dollar Index has fallen significantly from its high of 102 in March 2020, entering a weak cycle. The short-term rebound in the US Dollar Index is mainly due to two reasons:</p><p>First, the United States ranks among the top in the world in terms of improvement in the epidemic situation and vaccine advancement; Second, Biden's policy measures since taking office have brought strong expectations of fiscal stimulus at this stage, which is beneficial to the economic outlook. However, the rise in the US Dollar Index was actually quite limited because...<b>Although there are differences in speed, the world is in a period of common recovery, which still constitutes a global plus US dollar leverage environment. The total supply of US dollars tends to increase, thus suppressing the rise of the US Dollar Index.</b>Based on the Federal Reserve's easing policy and the general trend of global recovery, we believe that the the US Dollar Index is limited to a rebound rather than a reversal, and the US Dollar Index is still in its third weak cycle since 1970.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8012910e3326bb06b96cc8577c7e3f67\" tg-width=\"993\" tg-height=\"631\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>","source":"lsy1582886636882","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Is the Turkish crisis representative, and are emerging markets really dangerous?</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 12.5px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nIs the Turkish crisis representative, and are emerging markets really dangerous?\n</h2>\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n<p class=\"head\">\n<strong class=\"h-name small\">轩言全球宏观</strong><span class=\"h-time small\">2021-03-26 21:21</span>\n</p>\n</h4>\n</header>\n<article>\n<p><b>In response to domestic inflationary and currency devaluation pressures, the central banks of three emerging economies, including Türkiye, have recently taken rate hike measures.</b>On March 18, the Central Bank of Brazil announced its first rate hike in six years, raising its benchmark interest rate by 75 basis points to 2.75%, and said it would rate hike the same amount again at its May meeting.</p><p>On March 19, the Central Bank of Turkey announced \"early action,\" raising its benchmark interest rate by 200 basis points to 19%, double the market expectation, in response to inflation approaching 16% and the depreciation of the lira.

This may be why several emerging economies have recently synchronized with the Turkish central bank's rate hike.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/90e913995172079ea2830f7727eb7b58\" tg-width=\"995\" tg-height=\"672\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p><b>Historically, Türkiye has frequently experienced crises and turmoil, stemming from its own inherent vulnerability.</b>The frequent crises in Türkiye's financial markets are mainly due to the following three aspects:</p><p>First, Turkey has a harsh political environment and frequent political turmoil, which not only affects capital market confidence but also suppresses domestic supply capacity and exacerbates the inflation problem. Second, Turkey has a double deficit in its current account and fiscal deficit, which means that it is highly dependent on external sources for debt financing. The external debt burden is a long-term problem that Turkey faces and lacks sustainable income to repay its external debt. Therefore, it is very sensitive to changes in the US dollar exchange rate and interest rates. Third, Türkiye's foreign exchange reserves as a percentage of GDP are very low, and its ability to repay foreign debt and maintain its exchange rate is weak.<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fc989dfda559ebf997257c2d28f912aa\" tg-width=\"998\" tg-height=\"674\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p><b>From an external perspective, the strength of the US dollar is limited.

In addition, given the relatively loose international liquidity environment, the lira's sharp decline does not imply a collective crisis in emerging markets.</p><p>In terms of transmission routes, Russia, Spain, and Argentina were relatively more negatively affected:<b>In terms of trade relations, Türkiye imports a large amount from Russia, China, Germany, and the United States, accounting for about 5% of Russia's total exports, while their proportions are relatively low among other major importing countries. From the perspective of the financial system, European banks, especially Spain, have a relatively large debt risk exposure to Türkiye. In addition, fluctuations in the Turkish lira in the financial market may also be linked to the Argentine peso.</b></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ef4aaea96c335fa53b1e0de59aeebc6d\" tg-width=\"874\" tg-height=\"841\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p><b>The impact of the Turkish crisis on the RMB exchange rate and my country's capital market is limited.</b>From a fundamental perspective, exports to Türkiye accounted for only 0.7% of my country's total exports in 2019, indicating that even if Türkiye's fundamentals deteriorate, the impact on my country will be minimal.</p><p>On the financial front, the the US Dollar Index has recently hovered around 91-92. Firstly, it has fallen significantly from the high of over 100 in 2020. Secondly, it has not strengthened further recently. The RMB exchange rate has also performed calmly recently. Recent statements from European and American central banks indicate that monetary policy is still on an easing trend. US stocks, which have a significant impact on global risk appetite, have still risen amidst the volatility, indicating that foreign risk appetite is still benefiting from the environment of stable liquidity and economic recovery. This indirectly highlights the strong individual country factors involved in the turmoil in Turkey.</p><p>We expect it to be less representative and contagious to emerging markets as a whole, and will not be a significant risk factor affecting my country's capital market for the time being. In addition, my country's economy was the first to recover from the pandemic, and the opening of the capital market continues to attract foreign capital inflows, which is different from the fundamentals and capital flow situation facing Türkiye.

Furthermore, rising US Treasury yields typically occur simultaneously with rising US stocks. Therefore, given the Federal Reserve's clear statement that it will maintain its loose monetary policy...<b>The rise in US Treasury yields mainly reflects a positive economic outlook and an upward price trend, and may be accompanied by an increase in risk appetite, but does not necessarily indicate a tightening of global liquidity.</b>With US Treasury yields rising sharply and significantly, we found that the US Dollar Index only rebounded slightly to the 91-92 level, which indirectly confirms that rising US Treasury yields do not necessarily lead to a large-scale outflow of capital from emerging markets and back to the United States, thereby significantly pushing up the US dollar.</p><p>From the perspective of the US dollar's trend itself, the the US Dollar Index has fallen significantly from its high of 102 in March 2020, entering a weak cycle. The short-term rebound in the US Dollar Index is mainly due to two reasons:</p><p>First, the United States ranks among the top in the world in terms of improvement in the epidemic situation and vaccine advancement; Second, Biden's policy measures since taking office have brought strong expectations of fiscal stimulus at this stage, which is beneficial to the economic outlook. However, the rise in the US Dollar Index was actually quite limited because...<b>Although there are differences in speed, the world is in a period of common recovery, which still constitutes a global plus US dollar leverage environment. The total supply of US dollars tends to increase, thus suppressing the rise of the US Dollar Index.</b>Based on the Federal Reserve's easing policy and the general trend of global recovery, we believe that the the US Dollar Index is limited to a rebound rather than a reversal, and the US Dollar Index is still in its third weak cycle since 1970.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8012910e3326bb06b96cc8577c7e3f67\" tg-width=\"993\" tg-height=\"631\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<div class=\"bt-text\">\n\n\n<p> source：<a href=\"https://mp.weixin.qq.com/s/cQFsgYDzs5RFxQ-mFCgoNQ\">轩言全球宏观</a></p>\n\n\n</div>\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a9e96b6b37180c3969a55df6e11880b8","relate_stocks":{"TUR":"土耳其ETF-iShares MSCI"},"source_url":"https://mp.weixin.qq.com/s/cQFsgYDzs5RFxQ-mFCgoNQ","is_english":false,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1133889321","content_text":"为应对国内通胀与货币贬值压力，近期包括土耳其在内的三个新兴经济体央行采取了加息措施。3月18日，巴西央行宣布六年来首次加息，将基准利率上调75个基点至2.75%，并称将在5月会议上再次加息相同幅度。\n3月19日，土耳其央行宣布“提前行动”，将指标利率上调200个基点至19%，幅度为市场预期的两倍，以应对接近16%的通胀和里拉的贬值；3月20日，俄罗斯央行宣布加息25个基点至4.5%，是俄罗斯自2018年以来，首次上调关键利率，俄央行表示，风险的天平已转向了通胀上升的风险。\n\n为应对本国持续已久的高通胀和近期的通胀压力加剧，近两年土耳其已四次大幅加息。与其他新兴经济体不同的是，2017年以来的大多数时期，土耳其CPI同比增速持续处于两位数状态，从2020年6月起，随着全球大宗商品价格触底快速回升，土耳其DPPI同比增速开始出现抬升，从5.5%的底部水平已抬升至27.1%，从2020年11月开始，土耳其CPI同比增速亦从11.9%抬升至2021年2月的15.6%。\n为应对国内通胀，自2020年9月以来，土耳其央行已连续四次加息，分别为2020年9月25日、11月20日、12月25日和2021年3月19日，加息幅度分别为200BP、475BP、200BP、200BP。对于土耳其央行的加息举措，资本市场总体呈认可态度。\n\n土耳其总统罢免央行行长并任命支持低利率政策的新人选打击了海外投资者对土耳其资本市场的信心，外资加速流出，土耳其股汇债三杀。土耳其总统埃尔多安19日晚出人意料地免除了仅上任4个月的土耳其央行行长Naci Agbal的职务，这是埃尔多安过去2年里第3次撤换央行行长，而免职原因恰恰在于埃尔多安对于其加息举措的不满，埃尔多安认为，恰恰加息才是导致通胀的原因，要求保持低利率以刺激经济增长。\n根据总统令，央行行长职位将由一直批评央行加息举措的Sahap Kavcioglu接任，这意味着土耳其央行很可能重新采取低利率政策，并放弃控制通胀和拯救汇率，鉴于海外投资者难以认同其政策举措，对央行信誉信心的丧失使得资本加速流出土耳其市场，并使得土耳其面临“股债汇三杀”的局面。\n3月22日，土耳其以美元计价的长期主权债券录得创纪录的单日跌幅，10年期国债收益率上升4.5%至18.0%，基准股指伊斯坦堡100指数下跌9.8%，且股市连续两日两度熔断，土耳其里拉盘中一度暴跌17%，当日最终贬值7.5%，3月23日，土耳其资本市场的动荡仍在延续。\n\n美元指数走强和美债收益率上行是3月土耳其加息的背景因素之一。结合他国的同步加息来看，美元指数走强和美债收益率快速上行，以及由此带来的全球资本市场动荡和资金流向变化，可能促使部分资金从新兴市场撤出，使得俄罗斯、巴西以及土耳其的货币均在3月以来出现贬值，而本国货币的贬值会使得商品进口价格上升，并进一步加剧国内通胀压力，这可能是近期多个新兴经济体也同步于土耳其央行加息的原因。\n\n历史上土耳其频频爆发危机和动荡，根源在于自身所具有的脆弱性。土耳其金融市场危机频发的原因主要在于以下三个方面：\n\n 第一，土耳其政治环境恶劣，政治动荡频发，既影响资本市场信心，也抑制国内供给能力，加剧了通胀问题问题，第二，土耳其存在经常账户和财政“双赤字”的情况，意味着其债务融资外源性依赖程度高，外债负担是土耳其面临的长期又缺乏持续的收入来偿还外债，因此对美元汇率和利率的变化非常敏感；第三，土耳其外储占GDP比重很低，偿付外债的能力和维护汇率的能力较弱。\n\n\n从外部因素来看，美元强势程度有限，土耳其危机并不意味着新兴市场集体性的危机，但可能对其他国家有小幅度间接传导。当前土耳其与其他新兴市场、特别是亚洲新兴市场的基本面差异较大，加之目前相对宽松的国际流动性环境，里拉暴跌暂不意味着新兴市场集体性的危机。\n从传导途径看，俄罗斯、西班牙、阿根廷相对受到负面影响更大：从贸易关系看，土耳其从俄罗斯、中国、德国、美国进口较多，在俄罗斯总出口中占比5%左右，在其他主要进口国中占比均较低；从金融体系的关系看，欧洲银行业、特别是西班牙对土耳其的债务风险敞口较大。此外金融市场上土耳其里拉的波动也可能与阿根廷比索产生联动。\n\n土耳其危机对人民币汇率和我国资本市场的影响有限。从基本面看，2019年对土耳其出口在我国出口中占比仅为0.7%，显示土耳其基本面即使恶化对我国影响也很小。\n金融层面，近期美元指数在91-92水平徘徊，首先较2020年100以上的高位有明显回落，其次近期未进一步走强，人民币汇率近期表现也波澜不惊，欧美央行近期表态显示货币政策仍处于宽松走向中，对全球风险偏好有较大影响的美股在震荡中仍然有所上涨，表明外资风险偏好仍然受益于流动性平稳和经济复苏的大环境，侧面凸显土耳其动荡有较强的个体国别因素。\n我们预计其对整体新兴市场的代表性和传染性不强，暂不会是影响我国资本市场的重要风险点。加之我国经济率先从疫情中恢复，且资本市场的开放持续引来外资流入，也与土耳其面临的基本面和资本流动形势不同。预计里拉危局不会对人民币汇率和国内资本流动形势带来太大影响。\n\n国际环境方面，美债收益率的上行并不等同于美元流动性收紧，美元指数仅是小幅反弹而非反转。美债收益率上行是全球和美国名义经济增速上行和预期改善的必然结果，且美债收益率上行通常与美股上涨同时出现，因此，在美联储明确表示将维持宽松货币政策的背景下，美债收益率的上行更主要是反映了向好的经济前景和向上的价格趋势，且可能伴随着风险偏好的提升，并不必然表征全球流动性紧缩。在美债收益率大幅、显著上行的情况下，我们发现美元指数仅仅小幅反弹至91-92水平，侧面印证了并非美债收益率上行资本就会大规模流出新兴市场、回流美国从而显著推升美元。\n从美元走势本身来说，美元指数从2020年3月的102高点已显著回落，进入一个弱势周期。美元指数短期反弹，主要出于两方面原因：\n\n 第一，美国疫情改善、疫苗推进在全球名列前茅；第二，拜登上台后的政策举措为现阶段带来较强财政刺激预期，有利于经济前景。\n\n但是，美元指数走强的幅度实际上相当有限，原因在于，虽然存在速度差异，但全球处于一个共同复苏的时段，那么就仍然构成全球加美元杠杆的大环境，美元供应从总量上趋于增加，从而抑制了美元指数的走强幅度。基于美联储宽松政策和全球复苏的大趋势，我们认为美元指数仅限于反弹而非反转，美元指数仍处于1970年之后的第三轮弱势周期中。","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"TUR":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1756,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":356767945,"gmtCreate":1616817952187,"gmtModify":1704799383138,"author":{"id":"3557305548001793","authorId":"3557305548001793","name":"Ikhas","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a0fd7b69b3c00ecf9cc780ede0cf5943","crmLevel":8,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3557305548001793","idStr":"3557305548001793"},"themes":[],"title":"","htmlText":"infrastructure improvemnet by Joe","listText":"infrastructure improvemnet by Joe","text":"infrastructure improvemnet by Joe","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/356767945","repostId":"1170764582","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1170764582","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1616765445,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1170764582?lang=en_US&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-03-26 21:30","market":"us","language":"zh","title":"A detailed explanation of Biden's reconstruction plan: How to build it?

Since the plan has not yet been officially announced, this report uses Biden's infrastructure and tax increase plans proposed during his campaign as a blueprint to understand Biden's infrastructure and tax increases from four perspectives (necessity, historical comparison, specific measures, and impact), in order to gain a general understanding of the measures and impact of the formal reconstruction plan in the future.</p><p>Biden's infrastructure: How to build it?</p><p><b>1. Is it necessary for the United States to invest heavily in infrastructure at present?</b></p><p>It is absolutely necessary. First, the state of infrastructure is worrying. According to ASCE's latest assessment, U.S. infrastructure remains \"mostly substandard,\" indicating a serious \"deterioration.\" According to the Global Competitiveness Report, the United States ranked 13th globally in infrastructure in 2019, up from 5th in 2002. Secondly, there is a large investment gap. The total infrastructure investment gap over the next decade has reached $2.59 trillion. Finally, infrastructure spending is far lower than that of major economies. Europe's infrastructure spending is equivalent to 5% of GDP, China's infrastructure spending is about 8% of GDP, and the United States' is only 2.4%. The United States mainly relies on local and state governments for infrastructure investment, but local governments are gradually \"unable to keep up\". As infrastructure stock continues to grow, state and local governments have had to bear more operating and maintenance costs, and new investment has been declining since the beginning of the 21st century.</p><p><b>II. Are there any precedents for the federal government leading infrastructure investment?</b></p><p>Historically, Biden's infrastructure investment is the second largest federal infrastructure investment in the United States since the last century. Since the beginning of the last century, the U.S. federal government has led four rounds of large-scale infrastructure investment, with the largest investment being the Roosevelt New Deal, which spent $18 billion on public works, accounting for 31% of GDP in 1933. The least invested was Obama's ARRA Act, which spent $120 billion on infrastructure, accounting for 0.8% of GDP in 2009. Eisenhower spent $25 billion to build interstate highways, accounting for 5.6% of GDP in 1956, while Clinton's information superhighway program cost a total of $400 billion, accounting for 5.8% of GDP in 1993. Biden's infrastructure investment amounted to approximately $1.3 trillion, accounting for 6.1% of GDP in 2019, making it the second largest investment since the last century.</p><p><b>III. What are Biden's specific infrastructure measures?</b></p><p>The plan proposed on Biden's campaign website is $2 trillion over 10 years, representing 9.3% of 2019 GDP. Infrastructure investment amounted to $1.3 trillion, accounting for 6.1% of GDP in 2019. The plan has three key points: 1) The content is very broad. It covers eight major areas: modern infrastructure, automotive industry development, clean power investment, building renovation and housing construction, clean energy investment, sustainable agriculture, equal community development, and manufacturing revitalization. 2) Promoting employment and rebuilding the middle class are the \"main focus\". 3) Keep manufacturing in the United States. The need to prevent manufacturing relocation is inherently consistent with the need to create jobs. It should be noted that the investment amounts for each sector in the plan are not yet clear, and only a few projects have proposed specific investment amounts.</p><p><b>IV. What impact will Biden's infrastructure projects have on the US economy?</b></p><p>1) Impact on GDP: Over 10 years, infrastructure spending will be approximately $130 billion annually. Estimated based on an output multiplier of 0.4-3 (assessed by the University of Maryland and the CBO), the additional output contribution to GDP will be approximately $52 billion to $390 billion annually, which is about 0.2% to 1.8% of the nominal GDP in 2019. 2) Impact on employment: Biden's reconstruction plan may create more than 10 million jobs in the United States over the next decade. 3) Bank of America estimates that Biden’s infrastructure plan may bring 2% to 9% GDP growth in the short term and “significant” GDP growth in the long term.</p><p>Biden raises taxes: How?</p><p><b>First, Biden's tax increase is almost certain.</b></p><p>Three reasons: 1) Tax increases are one of Biden's campaign slogans, and they are likely to be implemented. 2) Biden's campaign website explicitly states that the $1.3 trillion in infrastructure investment will be raised entirely by \"ensuring that the super-rich and corporations pay their fair share of (taxes).\" 3) Treasury Secretary Yellen has stated that part of the spending for the next bill (Biden's reconstruction plan) will be raised by tax increases.</p><p><b>Second, there are precedents for raising taxes.</b></p><p>Since the 1950s, the income tax rate in the United States has generally shown a downward trend, with more tax cuts and fewer tax increases. There were three major tax increases. The first was the \"Vietnam War Surcharge\" levied from 1968 to 1970 to cover the expenses of the Vietnam War. Second, in 1990, George H.W. Bush raised taxes to cope with the growing deficit. Third, Clinton raised taxes in 1993, which was the largest and most widespread tax increase in the United States since 1950, and its purpose was to reduce the fiscal deficit.</p><p><b>Third, the tax burden on the wealthy will increase, while the burden on the lower and middle classes will decrease; The tax burden on enterprises will increase, but the return of manufacturing will be encouraged.</b></p><p>Biden's target audience for tax increases is very clear: wealthy individuals and businesses, while tax incentives and credits for the lower and middle classes have been increased. On the one hand, the wage tax, income tax, capital gains tax, and inheritance tax for the wealthy will be increased; on the other hand, the corporate income tax rate will be raised again, and some other corporate taxes will be adjusted.</p><p><b>IV. What impact will Biden's tariffs have on the US economy?</b></p><p>In terms of economic growth, both the Tax Foundation and the Tax Policy Center estimate that tax increases will have a negative impact on economic growth over the next decade, reducing GDP by 1.62% to 3.4% over the next decade. In terms of tax revenue, the Tax Foundation believes that tax increases could raise approximately $2.8 trillion in tax revenue over the next decade, while the Tax Policy Center estimates that tax increases will reduce federal revenue by $161 billion over the next decade (about 8% of total revenue over 10 years). In addition, the Tax Foundation expects that tax increases will lead to lower wage levels and job losses, narrowing the income gap but reducing the overall after-tax income of residents.</p><p><b>Two key timelines: When might a formal redevelopment plan be launched?</b></p><p><b>The first key time point: April-May this year.</b></p><p>When Biden proposed the \"American Relief Plan\" on January 14th of this year, he clearly stated, \"When I appear before a joint session of Congress for the first time next month, I will present my 'Recovery Plan for a Better Future.'\" Biden's reconstruction plan should have been formally proposed in February, but the pandemic was the top priority. On February 11th, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi stated, \"We will not do anything until we pass the COVID-19 relief bill.\" Because the American relief plan encountered resistance in Congress and was not officially implemented until March 14th, Biden has not yet attended the joint session of Congress, and the reconstruction plan has not been formally proposed.</p><p>When will the joint session of Congress be held? This is the key. On March 24, White House Press Secretary Psaki said that there was no set date yet. Historically, the president has attended a joint session of Congress and delivered a \"speech to a joint session of Congress\" no later than February. It is now expected overseas that Biden will officially attend a joint session of Congress in April, at which time he will introduce the reconstruction plan to lawmakers. Goldman Sachs also predicts that the White House may submit a detailed budget proposal to Congress in May. Based on statements from senior Democratic officials, they hope the infrastructure plan will pass committees under the Senate and House of Representatives in May. Therefore, we expect the total scale and specific project details of the reconstruction plan to be announced in April or May.</p><p><b>The second critical time point: October.</b></p><p>First, after October, the Democratic Party can once again initiate the \"budget reconciliation procedure\". Second, the positive statements from top Democrats indicate that they will push the reconstruction plan to a congressional vote as quickly as possible or pursue a budget reconciliation process at the beginning of the new fiscal year.</p><p>Risk warning: Disagreements arise within the Democratic Party regarding the reconstruction plan.</p><p><b>Report Directory</b></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8a2d175dd5fcc77e4928e9a8001033b8\" tg-width=\"962\" tg-height=\"739\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>Main text of the report</p><p>Following the implementation of the $1.9 trillion U.S. relief Plan, discussions about the Biden Recovery Plan (Build Back Better Recovery Plan, which is also referred to as the \"Biden Infrastructure Plan\" in relevant domestic and international reports and reports because most of its measures are related to infrastructure) quickly intensified. According to a Bloomberg report on March 22, a reconstruction plan will soon be submitted to Biden, and the plan also includes a tax increase. White House Press Secretary Psaki also stated on the 22nd, \"Time is running out, so he will discuss the options, scale, and scope with his team this week.\" According to Biden's statement when proposing the relief plan, he will present his reconstruction plan to members of Congress during his first appearance at a joint session of Congress and his \"speech to a joint session of Congress,\" so the reconstruction plan may be officially \"unveiled\" in April.</p><p>Since Biden's reconstruction plan has not yet been released, this report will use the infrastructure and tax increase plans proposed by Biden during his campaign as a blueprint for analysis.</p><p>I. Biden's Infrastructure: How to \"Build\"?</p><p>Regarding Biden's infrastructure, we mainly need to clarify four questions. First, is it necessary for the United States to invest heavily in infrastructure at this time? Second, is there any historical experience of the US government leading large-scale infrastructure investment? If so, historically, what is the scale of Biden's infrastructure investment? Third, how exactly should the specific areas and measures of the infrastructure plan be constructed? Fourth, what is the impact of infrastructure plans on the US economy?</p><p>(a) Is it necessary for the United States to build large-scale infrastructure projects at present</p><p>The current state of infrastructure in the United States is worrying, and large-scale investment is very necessary. Most of the infrastructure systems in the United States were built in the 1960s, and many facilities have reached their maximum useful life and are nearing the point of \"obsolescence\".</p><p>I. The infrastructure condition is worrying, and the overall rating is low. The American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) rated U.S. infrastructure as \"D+\" (A-F) in 2017 and upgraded to \"C-\" in 2021. Although the rating has improved, it also indicates that U.S. infrastructure is still \"mostly substandard,\" showing a more serious \"deterioration\" situation. From a global perspective, the rating of the US infrastructure sector has also been declining over the past two decades. According to the World Economic Forum's Global Competitiveness Report, the United States ranked 13th globally in infrastructure in 2019, down from 5th in 2002, a drop of 8 places in 17 years.</p><p>Second, the United States currently has a large-scale infrastructure investment gap, which, if not filled, will have a huge negative impact on economic and social development. There are two sources of assessment: 1) A 2021 report by the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) stated that the total infrastructure investment gap in the United States has reached $2.59 trillion over the next decade. If not filled, the United States will lose $10 trillion in GDP and $2.4 trillion in exports by 2039. 2) A 2016 McKinsey study estimated that $150 billion in infrastructure investment would be needed annually from 2017 to 2030 to keep up with the U.S. economy’s demand for infrastructure.</p><p>Third, the United States spends far less on infrastructure than the world's major economies and relies heavily on state and local governments. European countries spend 5% of their GDP on infrastructure construction and maintenance, while China spends an average of about 8% of its GDP on infrastructure, while the United States spends only 2.4%[1]. Furthermore, unlike most other industrialized countries, the United States relies primarily on local and state government spending to meet its infrastructure needs. Most European countries or regions fund most infrastructure construction at the national level, but in 2017, only 25% of public infrastructure funding in the United States came from the federal government. This figure is far lower than the peak of 38% in 1977, indicating that the federal government is bearing less and less responsibility for spending on public infrastructure. As the stock of infrastructure in the United States continues to increase, state and local governments have had to bear more operating and maintenance costs, which has led to a decline in new infrastructure investment since the early 2000s.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/92d1fe0e962d44eff5f6d6a13da64df6\" tg-width=\"1080\" tg-height=\"482\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/80cf9e50d231575711b16ef73e71bb98\" tg-width=\"1080\" tg-height=\"383\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>(ii) Has the federal government made large-scale infrastructure investments in history?</p><p>Since the beginning of the last century, the United States has experienced four large-scale infrastructure investments led by the federal government. Historically, Biden's infrastructure plan is the second largest federal infrastructure investment in the United States since the beginning of the last century. Since the beginning of the last century, the U.S. federal government has led four rounds of large-scale infrastructure investment. The largest investment was in Roosevelt's New Deal, which spent $18 billion on public works, accounting for 31% of GDP in 1933. The least invested was Obama's ARRA Act, which included $120 billion in infrastructure spending, accounting for 0.8% of GDP in 2009. Eisenhower spent $25 billion to build interstate highways, about 5.6% of GDP in 1956, while Clinton's Information Superhighway program totaled $400 billion, or 5.8% of GDP in 1993. Biden's campaign website announced that infrastructure spending was approximately $1.3 trillion, accounting for about 6.1% of GDP in 2019, making it the second largest investment since the last century.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/482f1bb788c01537a9201e79b2e0f4b1\" tg-width=\"804\" tg-height=\"380\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>1. Roosevelt's New Deal</p><p>Following the Great Depression, to stimulate employment recovery, Roosevelt signed the National Industrial Recovery Act of 1933, believing that extensive public works programs could directly create jobs. The establishment of agencies such as the Federal Economic Relief Administration, the Public Works Administration (PWA), and the Works Promotion Agency (WPA) has created over ten million jobs in the United States. By the eve of World War II, federal government spending on engineering and direct relief had reached $18 billion, accounting for 31% of U.S. GDP in 1933 and 14% of U.S. GDP in 1941. In terms of broad spending, Roosevelt's New Deal federal spending totaled $41.7 billion, accounting for 73% of U.S. GDP in 1933 and 32% of U.S. GDP in 1941.</p><p>Large-scale public works spending has also yielded significant results: in terms of public works, WPA's small projects include 78,000 bridges and viaducts and 572,000 miles of rural roads; In the first six years of its establishment, the PWA completed approximately 1.14 street and highway projects, totaling 37,000 miles[2]. By the eve of World War II, the United States had built nearly 1,000 airfields, more than 12,000 sports fields, and more than 800 school buildings and hospitals. In terms of employment, the WPA alone provided jobs for approximately eight million people between 1935 and 1943.</p><p>2. Eisenhower: Interstate Highway</p><p>In the 1950s, Eisenhower advocated the construction of an interstate highway system in the United States. In 1956, he signed the Federal Highway Aid Act, authorizing $25 billion to build 41,000 miles of interstate highways over a decade. This cost would be paid for by tax revenues such as gasoline taxes deposited into the Federal Highway Trust Fund, with the federal government providing about 90% of the total expenditure and the remaining 10% paid by the states. The cost of building interstate highways accounted for about 5.6% of U.S. GDP in 1956.</p><p>3. Clinton: \"Information Superhighway Plan\"</p><p>In 1992, U.S. presidential candidate Bill Clinton proposed building an information superhighway during his campaign. After Clinton took office in 1993, the \"Information Superhighway Project\" was officially implemented. The planned investment is $400 billion over 20 years to gradually lay telecommunications fiber optic cables to all home users. In 1994, the U.S. government proposed an initiative to build a global information infrastructure, which aims to connect global information networks through satellite communications and telecommunications fiber optic cables and form a competitive mechanism for information sharing[3]. The total investment in the Information Superhighway Program accounted for 5.8% of U.S. GDP in 1993.</p><p>4. Obama: ARRA Fiscal Stimulus Act</p><p>Following the financial crisis, Obama signed the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) fiscal stimulus bill in February 2009, with an initial total size of $787 billion. The Congressional Budget Office projected total spending of approximately $840 billion in 2015, of which about $120 billion was for infrastructure projects, including: $48 billion for transportation and public transportation projects, $31 billion for the modernization of federal buildings, $31 billion for the modernization of school and scientific facilities, $6 billion for water conservancy projects, and $5 billion for housing climate change projects. Infrastructure spending under the ARRA Act accounted for only 0.8% of GDP in 2009.</p><p>(iii) What are the specific measures of Biden's infrastructure plan?</p><p>1. Three key points of the infrastructure plan</p><p>The \"Building Modern, Sustainable Infrastructure and a Fair, Clean Energy Future\" plan proposed on Biden's campaign website spans 10 years and totals $2 trillion, accounting for approximately 9.3% of GDP in 2019. If we only look at infrastructure spending, it is approximately $1.3 trillion, accounting for about 6.1% of GDP in 2019. The plan published on the campaign website has two characteristics:</p><p>First, the content is very broad. The plan is not limited to traditional infrastructure and clean energy investments, but also includes new infrastructure such as smart cities and broadband, automotive industry development, building renovation and affordable housing construction, sustainable agriculture, manufacturing revitalization and SME development, and community equality and development.</p><p>Secondly, promoting employment and rebuilding the middle class are the \"main focus\". It can be said that increasing employment and rebuilding the middle class are major objectives of Biden's massive infrastructure development. In Biden's vision, the plan can significantly create new jobs. For example, investment in infrastructure will create millions of jobs, the automotive industry will create 1 million jobs, investment in the power sector will create millions of jobs, investment in construction and housing will create 1 million high-paying jobs, and agricultural protection will create 250,000 jobs.</p><p>Third, keep manufacturing in the United States. Preventing the relocation of manufacturing is inherently consistent with the need to create jobs. This statement was mentioned multiple times in the plan, for example: ensuring that automakers are encouraged to build or restructure vehicle or parts factories domestically; Invest in battery technology, but ensure that battery production is carried out domestically, etc.</p><p>In addition, it is worth noting that the specific investment amounts for each sector in the infrastructure plan are still unclear, with only a few projects proposing clear investment amounts. Because the plan was very \"rough,\" it did not have a very detailed spending plan, and only proposed investment amounts for a few projects, such as increasing federal procurement by $400 billion during the first term (the specific procurement plan was not specified). $100 billion to improve public school buildings; In his first year in office, he invested $50 billion to repair highways, roads, and bridges; Invest $20 billion to build rural broadband infrastructure and provide $60 billion to expand broadband access in rural areas; An additional $10 billion will be invested over 10 years to support transportation projects in low-income areas; A $40 billion, 10-year transformation project fund will be used to fund major infrastructure projects, among other things. The investment amount explicitly mentioned in the plan brief is only a little over $800 billion.</p><p>2. Beyond infrastructure, the plan covers eight major areas.</p><p>Overall, Biden's infrastructure plan is not limited to the \"infrastructure sector,\" but has a very broad scope, covering eight major areas: modern infrastructure, automotive industry development, clean electricity investment, building renovation and housing construction, clean energy investment, sustainable agriculture, equal community development, and manufacturing revitalization (a brief introduction is below; see the appendix for details).</p><p>First, build modern infrastructure.</p><p>1) Road repair and construction. In his first year in office, he invested $50 billion in repairing highways, roads, and bridges, and made transportation investments in remote areas. 2) The Second Railway Revolution. Invest heavily in high-speed rail, improve the passenger and freight railway systems, promote the electrification of the railway system, and reduce diesel emissions. 3) Vigorously develop public transportation. By 2030, high-quality public transportation systems will be built in cities with a population of over 100,000. Invest an additional $10 billion over 10 years to support transportation projects in low-income areas. 4) Improve the airport. Double funding for airport improvement programs, provide competitive grants for major airport renovation projects, and fully implement next-generation aviation technology systems. 5) Invest heavily in freight infrastructure, including inland waterways, freight corridors, freight railways, transit facilities and ports. Increase grants for the BUILD and INFRA transportation infrastructure grant projects from 1.8 billion to 3.5 billion annually; Add 2.5 billion yuan annually to the Army Corps of Engineers to promote the modernization of ship locks in inland waterways; Support port port infrastructure. 6) Water conservancy infrastructure construction. Replace aging pipes, double federal investment in clean drinking water and water infrastructure, monitor lead and other contaminants in water systems, and hold polluting companies accountable. Invest in water technology research and development and encourage private sector innovation. 7) New infrastructure projects: smart city construction. $1 billion annually to help five cities pilot new planning strategies and smart city technologies. Invest in broadband networks. Invest $20 billion to build rural broadband infrastructure, and $60 billion to expand broadband access in rural areas and increase the number of broadband providers participating. 8) Establish a transformation project fund. Establish a $40 billion, 10-year transformation project fund to provide assistance for large and complex infrastructure projects.</p><p>Second, it will enable the U.S. auto industry to lead the world this century and accelerate the transition to low-carbon and carbon-free vehicles.</p><p>1) Demand side: Restore the full tax credit for electric vehicles, use federal procurement to increase demand for clean vehicles, and accelerate the upgrade of 3 million government-system vehicles. The goal is to have all new buses manufactured in the United States achieve zero emissions by 2030, converting 500,000 school buses nationwide into zero-emission vehicles. 2) Encourage automakers to build or restructure vehicle or parts factories domestically. 3) Invest $5 billion in battery and energy storage technologies over five years, while ensuring that battery production is carried out domestically. 4) Establish a national charging system consisting of 500,000 public charging points, and provide an additional $1 billion annually to ensure that charging stations are installed by certified technicians. 5) Convene the U.S. Department of Energy and Transportation to coordinate special demonstration projects and provide grants to municipalities and counties willing to pilot new charging infrastructure. 6) Establish fuel economy standards to reduce air pollution.</p><p>Third, clean power investment: achieve carbon-free power generation by 2035.</p><p>1) Develop clean electricity and achieve carbon-free power generation by 2035. 2) Vigorously develop the power grid, promote market reforms, and expand the regional electricity market. 3) Establish energy efficiency and clean electricity standards (EECES) for utilities and grid operators; 4) Upgrade transmission lines to support a larger regional electricity market and promote large-scale energy storage demonstration projects. 5) Research investment and tax incentives for carbon capture, permanent storage, and utilization of carbon capture technologies will be doubled.</p><p>Fourth, building renovation to improve building energy efficiency.</p><p>1) Promote school modernization. Invest $100 billion to improve public school buildings and upgrade child care and early learning facilities across the country. 2) Building energy-saving renovation. Within four years, 4 million commercial buildings will be upgraded and 2 million households will undergo energy-saving renovations. Promote the electrification of the construction industry and increase investment in energy-saving renovation projects for low-income housing and key technologies such as electric heat pumps; Construction of net-zero carbon federal buildings, etc. 3) The carbon footprint of U.S. building stock will be reduced by half by 2035. 4) Promote the construction of 1.5 million public housing units and inject more funds into low-income communities to promote the construction of affordable housing and the development of small businesses.</p><p>Fifth, make historic investments in clean energy innovation.</p><p>1) Increase federal procurement by $400 billion during the first term, with a focus on purchasing key clean energy inputs such as batteries and electric vehicles. 2) Focus on strategic research areas such as clean energy, clean transportation, clean industrial processes and clean materials over the next four years. 3) Strengthen and build key clean energy supply chains in the United States, address issues such as dependence on rare earth minerals, and accelerate innovation in supply chain resilience. 4) Invest heavily in national laboratories, high-performance computing facilities, and other critical infrastructure.</p><p>Sixth, invest in sustainable agriculture and environmental protection.</p><p>1) Through grassroots climate organizations, call on and mobilize a new generation of Americans to engage in environmental protection and climate change response. 2) Make preliminary investments to clean up the damage and impact of past resource extraction on the environment. 3) Maintain American farms and ranches. Provide low-cost funding for farmers to transition to new equipment and methods, fund research and development in precision agriculture and new crops, and establish a voluntary carbon agriculture market; Pursuing pro-worker and pro-family peasant trade policies; Strengthening food supply security and resilience; Ensure fair competition among small and medium-sized farms, etc.</p><p>Seventh, community equality and development.</p><p>1) Provide $5 billion annually to expand the new market tax credit and make the program permanent; 2) Provide double funding to the Community Development Financial Institutions Fund to support financial institutions in low-income areas. 3) Establish a $10 billion urban revitalization fund to carry out creative revitalization projects in struggling cities. 4) Funding anchor institutions in impoverished areas (referring to hospitals, colleges and universities, as well as government administrative agencies, etc.). 5) Fully implement the \"10-20-30 Plan\" (allocating 10% of all federal programs to counties where 20% or more of the population has lived below the poverty line in the past 30 years).</p><p>Eighth, revitalize the country's manufacturing industry and small and medium-sized enterprises.</p><p>1) Revitalize the manufacturing industry. Quadruple funding for the Manufacturing Expansion Partnership Project to provide technical support to small manufacturers in global competition; Develop low-carbon manufacturing in each state; Use tax credits and subsidies to help businesses upgrade equipment and processes, invest in expanding or building new factories, and deploy low-carbon technologies; Provide funding for more competitive or low-carbon manufacturing industries, etc. 2) Promote the development of small and medium-sized enterprises Extend the National Small Business Credit Initiative program to 2025, and increase federal funding to $3 billion; Provide $5 billion to states to develop policies that encourage small business startups, such as supporting technology transfer from public universities to the private sector.</p><p>(iv) What is the impact of Biden's infrastructure on the US economy?</p><p>How should the impact of infrastructure spending on the economy be assessed? We can draw on past assessments of infrastructure effectiveness by American academia and think tanks: 1) A 2014 study by the University of Maryland showed that every $1 spent on public transportation infrastructure investment increases GDP by about $3, with a greater impact during economic recessions. 2) According to a 2014 report by the University of Chicago, an $83 billion infrastructure investment plan—roughly equivalent to 0.6% of GDP—will create 1.7 million jobs in the first three years. 3) According to estimates by global consulting firm McKinsey & Company, every 1 percentage point of GDP increase in U.S. infrastructure spending will create 1.5 million jobs for the economy. 4) The Economic Policy Institute estimates that the return on investment in infrastructure is very high. A review of dozens of infrastructure studies shows that every $100 spent... in the long run will increase private sector output by $13 (median) and $17 (average), respectively. 5) According to the U.S. Congressional Budget Office's (CBO) assessment of Obama's ARRA Act, the output multiplier for infrastructure is between 0.4 and 2.2.</p><p>We can draw on the assessment results of infrastructure effects from American academia and think tanks to roughly estimate the overall impact of Biden's infrastructure plan on the US economy and employment.</p><p>1) Impact on GDP: Biden's infrastructure plan identifies infrastructure spending of approximately $1.3 trillion, with an investment cycle of 10 years, averaging about $130 billion per year, accounting for about 0.6% of GDP in 2019. Estimated based on an output multiplier of 0.4-3 (combined with the output multiplier estimated by the University of Maryland and the CBO), the additional output contribution to GDP over the next ten years will be approximately $52 billion to $390 billion, which is about 0.2% to 1.8% of the nominal GDP in 2019.</p><p>2) Impact on employment: According to the University of Chicago's employment impact estimate, $1.3 trillion in infrastructure spending will create more than 2 million jobs annually over the next decade. According to McKinsey's assessment, it is estimated that approximately 10 million jobs will be created over the next decade. The job impact estimated in the Biden team's plan brief is to create more than 10 million jobs. In summary, Biden's reconstruction plan could create more than 10 million jobs in the United States over the next decade.</p><p>3) Bank of America estimated in a report that Biden’s $2 trillion infrastructure plan could bring 2% to 9% GDP growth in the short term and “significant growth” in the long term, and that every 1% increase in U.S. GDP growth would bring about 3% to 4% growth in the earnings of S&P 500 companies[4].</p><p>II. Biden's Tax Increase: How Will It Be</p><p>Similarly, let's understand Biden's tax increases from four perspectives. First, is Biden certain he wants to raise taxes, and what is the purpose of raising taxes? Second, is there any precedent for raising taxes in American history? Third, how does Biden plan to raise taxes? Fourth, what impact will the tax increase have on the US economy?</p><p>(a) Is Biden determined to raise taxes? What is the purpose?</p><p>Will Biden raise taxes? Tax increases should be a certainty. First, Biden clearly proposed a tax increase plan during his campaign, which was one of his campaign slogans, and it is highly likely that he will implement it. Second, Biden's campaign website states that up to $1.3 trillion in infrastructure investment will be funded entirely by \"ensuring that the super-rich and corporations pay their fair share of taxes.\" Third, Treasury Secretary Yellen has stated that part of the spending for the next bill (referring to Biden's reconstruction plan bill) will be raised by tax increases.</p><p>Biden's tax hikes have three purposes: first, to raise funds for reconstruction programs; second, to fulfill campaign promises; and third, to promote tax fairness through tax system adjustments and to adjust the wealth gap through redistribution. It is clear from the tax system adjustments that the tax burden on the wealthy, high-income groups, and businesses has increased, while the tax credits for low- and middle-income earners have expanded significantly.</p><p>(ii) Are there any precedents for tax increases?</p><p>Before 1950, the highest marginal rates of personal income tax and corporate income tax in the United States both showed a gradual upward trend. During this period, the main reason for tax increases was to raise funds for war. During World War I and World War II, the highest marginal rates of personal income tax and corporate income tax rose significantly. Since the 1950s, the highest marginal tax rates for personal income tax and corporate income tax in the United States have generally shown a gradual downward trend, with many periods of tax cuts and very few periods of tax increases.</p><p>There have been five major tax cuts since 1950: the Kennedy tax cuts in 1963, the Carter tax cuts in 1979, the Reagan tax cuts in the 1980s, the George W. Bush tax cuts in 2001, and the Trump tax cuts in 2017.</p><p>The most obvious tax increases since 1950 have been three.</p><p>The first time was in the late 1960s. The main reason for the tax increase was still war factors. From 1968 to 1970, in order to cover the expenses of the Vietnam War, the United States levied the \"Vietnam War Surcharge,\" which was abolished after 1970.</p><p>The second instance was in 1990, when George H.W. Bush passed the Oversight Budget Reconciliation Act of 1990 to cope with the increased deficit caused by the sharp rise in public spending on defense and healthcare, raising the highest marginal personal income tax rate from 28% to 31%.</p><p>The third was Clinton's tax increase in 1993, which was also the largest and most widespread tax increase in the United States since 1950. To reduce the fiscal deficit, Clinton proposed a tax increase plan in 1993, raising the top marginal personal income tax rate from 31% to 39.6% and the top marginal corporate income tax rate from 34% to 35%. It is worth noting that the increase in the highest marginal personal income tax rate from 35% to 39.6% in 2012 was not due to tax increases, but rather because the Bush tax cuts had expired, and the tax rate automatically returned to the level before the tax cuts.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/059fc482c64a72c92006019e12fd347f\" tg-width=\"819\" tg-height=\"450\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9a271519721bfe2d2e70b5c022a30421\" tg-width=\"1080\" tg-height=\"683\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>(iii) How does Biden plan to raise taxes?</p><p>Biden's tax increases mainly focus on two aspects:<b>First, wage tax, income tax, capital gains tax, and inheritance tax for high-income groups; second, the corporate income tax rate will be raised again, and some corporate taxes will be adjusted.</b>As can be seen from the specific details of the following clauses, Biden's targets for tax increases are very clear: wealthy groups and businesses, while tax incentives and credits for the lower and middle classes of society have been increased.</p><p>1. Individual tax system adjustment: The tax burden on the wealthy increases, while the burden on the lower and middle classes decreases.</p><p>1) A 12.4% Social Security payroll tax would be levied on people earning more than $400,000 a year, split equally between employers and employees. Under the pioneering tax law, individuals with annual incomes above 137,700 do not need to pay Social Security payroll tax.</p><p>2) Raise the maximum personal income tax rate for taxable income exceeding $400,000 from the current 37% to 39.6%; For groups with an annual income exceeding $400,000, even with tax incentives for itemized deductions, their personal income tax rate must not be lower than 28%. Restore the \"Pease Limit\" on item deductions for taxable income exceeding $400,000; For groups with taxable income exceeding $400,000, the eligible business income deduction will be gradually eliminated.</p><p>3) Tax long-term capital gains and qualified Dividend income exceeding US$1 million at an ordinary income tax rate of 39.6%, eliminating the progressive nature of capital gains tax.</p><p>4) Tax credits: Expand the labor income tax credit for employees aged 65 and above without children, and provide individuals with tax credits related to renewable energy; Expand the Child and Dependent Tax Credit (CDCTC) from a maximum of $3,000 to $8,000 ($16,000 for multiple dependents) and increase the maximum reimbursement rate from 35% to 50%. In 2021, the Child Tax Credit (CTC) for children aged 17 and under will be increased from a maximum of $2,000 to $3,000, while an additional $600 credit will be provided for children under 6, with the CTC being fully refunded. It is worth mentioning that the measures regarding CTC have been implemented in the 1.9 trillion relief plan; Rebuild the first-time homebuyer tax credit policy, providing a $15,000 tax credit for first-time homebuyers.</p><p>5) Restore the rates and exemptions for inheritance tax and gift tax to the levels of 2009. Following Trump's tax reform in 2017, the estate and gift tax exemption for 2018-2025 was increased from $5 million to $10 million per person, while the tax rate remained at 40%. If it returns to 2009 levels, the tax allowance will be reduced from the current 10 million to 3.5 million, and the tax rate will increase from 40% to 45%.</p><p>6) Other adjustments lacking clear information: Replace traditional deductions by providing refundable tax credits to balance the tax benefits of traditional retirement accounts (such as 401(k) and individual retirement accounts); Abolish certain provisions of the real estate tax; Expanding the Affordable Care Act premium tax credit; Create a refundable tenant tax credit and provide a credit of no more than $5 billion per year, aiming to keep rent and utility bills below 30% of tenants' monthly income; Increase the amount of housing tax credits for low-income earners.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ee544b934d79e80772ee93dede7fba86\" tg-width=\"954\" tg-height=\"583\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c55ac12a24c96f38ba548d45117f82cb\" tg-width=\"945\" tg-height=\"759\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>2. Corporate tax system adjustment: Tax burden increases, but manufacturing is encouraged to return.</p><p>1) Raise the corporate income tax rate from 21% to 28%.</p><p>2) Impose a minimum tax on companies with book profits exceeding $100 million. The minimum tax is an alternative tax – businesses will pay the higher of regular corporate income tax or the 15% minimum tax, while still allowing net operating loss (NOL) and foreign tax credits.</p><p>3) Double the Global Intangible Low Tax Income Tax rate for overseas subsidiaries of U.S. companies from 10.5% to 21%. It is proposed to conduct a country-by-country assessment of GILTI of overseas subsidiaries and remove the provision that treats GILTI below 10% of qualified corporate asset investments (QBAI) as a return exemption.</p><p>Prior to the 2017 tax reform, the United States generally taxed the global income of its companies and residents. U.S. companies could apply to defer taxation on the active business income of their overseas subsidiaries until the income was repatriated to the United States as Dividend. Following tax reform, the United States exempted earnings from active operations of U.S. companies' overseas subsidiaries, meaning they would not be taxed even if these earnings were repatriated (but passive investment income from foreign subsidiaries would still be taxed). The U.S. Congress, concerned that a complete exemption for multinational corporations' foreign income could exacerbate their practice of shifting profits to low-tax jurisdictions overseas, imposed a minimum tax rate of 10.5% on low-tax income from global intangible assets to prevent profit shifting. GILTI refers to revenue generated from intangible assets such as patents, trademarks, and copyrights. Intangible assets are highly mobile, and this tax rate attempts to prevent U.S. companies from transferring intangible assets overseas.</p><p>4) Tax credits: Establish tax credits for the manufacturing sector; Expand tax credits for new markets and make them permanent; Provide tax credits for small businesses that adopt workplace retirement savings plans; Expand tax credits related to renewable energy, including those for carbon capture, use, and storage, as well as those for residential energy efficiency, and restore the Energy Investment Tax Credit (ITC) and Electric Vehicle Tax Credit, ending tax subsidies for fossil fuels.</p><p>5) Other adjustments lacking clear information: A 10% surtax will be imposed on companies that \"transfer manufacturing and service jobs overseas in order to sell products or provide services to the U.S. market.\" A priority 10% Made in America tax credit is provided for activities that resume production, revitalize closed or soon-to-be-closed facilities, restructure facilities to promote manufacturing employment, or expand manufacturing wage scales.</p><p>(iv) The impact of Biden's tariffs on the US economy</p><p>The impact of tariffs on the economy is quite complex. We mainly rely on assessments by overseas think tanks to gain a general understanding of the impact of Biden's tariffs on the US economy.<b>In terms of economic growth, both the Tax Foundation and the Tax Policy Center estimate that tax increases will have a negative impact on economic growth over the next decade, reducing GDP by 1.62% to 3.4% over the next decade. In terms of tax revenue, the Tax Foundation believes that tax increases could raise approximately $2.8 trillion in tax revenue over the next decade, while the Tax Policy Center estimates that tax increases will reduce federal revenue by $161 billion over the next decade (about 8% of total revenue over those 10 years).</b>In addition, the Tax Foundation expects that tax increases will lead to lower wage levels and job losses, narrowing the income gap but reducing the overall after-tax income of residents.</p><p>1. Tax Foundation estimates</p><p>1) Impact of fiscal revenue: Biden’s tax plan will raise approximately $2.8 trillion over the next 10 years. 2) Economic impact: Over the next decade, it will reduce GDP by a total of 1.62%, GNP by a total of 1.83%, reduce the capital stock by 3.75%, reduce the long-term average wage level by 1.15%, and cause the loss of 542,000 jobs. 3) Impact of income distribution: Biden’s tax plan will reduce the after-tax income of the richest 1% of taxpayers by about 7.7% by 2030, and the average after-tax income of all taxpayers will decrease by 1.9%.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/92310243b616c89248067f2f1a18ffc3\" tg-width=\"1080\" tg-height=\"475\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>2. Tax Policy Center</p><p>1) Economic impact: This will reduce the total US GDP by 3.4% over the next decade. The impact on GDP will turn positive in 2040, and the positive impact will gradually increase in the years after 2040. 2) Revenue impact: This will reduce U.S. federal revenue by $161 billion from 2021 to 2030 (approximately 8% of total revenue over those 10 years) and by $90 billion from 2031 to 2040. By 2040, the impact of the tax plan on federal revenue will turn positive, and its positive effect will gradually increase in the following years of 2040.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0b75c8d26db2d05446f6e6db4dec6a9a\" tg-width=\"944\" tg-height=\"470\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3d0a76e285bdc0d17be49c9ec0fbade5\" tg-width=\"951\" tg-height=\"364\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>III. Key Timeline: When might the formal reconstruction plan be launched?</p><p>Currently, the Biden team has not released a formal plan or investment details. To track Biden's reconstruction plan, there are two key timelines worth paying attention to:</p><p><b>The first key time point: April-May this year.</b></p><p>When Biden first proposed the \"American Relief Plan\" on January 14 this year, he clearly stated: \"Next month, when I attend my first joint session of Congress, I will propose my 'Recovery Plan for a Better Future'[5].\" Under normal circumstances, Biden's reconstruction plan should have been formally proposed in February, but the pandemic was the top priority. On February 11, House Speaker Pelosi said, \"We will not do anything until we pass the COVID-19 relief bill.\" Because the American relief plan encountered resistance in Congress and was not officially implemented until March 14, Biden has not yet attended the joint session of Congress, and the reconstruction plan has not been formally proposed.</p><p>When will the joint session of Congress be held? This is the key. On March 24, White House Press Secretary Psaki stated, \"There is no set date yet... We are certainly still interested in committing to a joint meeting. We will stay in touch with them, but I don't know the specific time.\" Historically, the latest time a president has attended a joint session of Congress and delivered a \"speech to a joint session of Congress\" is no later than February. It is now expected that Biden will officially attend a joint session of Congress in April[6], at which time he will introduce the reconstruction plan to lawmakers. Goldman Sachs also predicts that the White House may submit a detailed budget proposal to Congress in May. Based on statements from senior Democratic officials, they hope the infrastructure plan will pass committees under the Senate and House of Representatives in May. Therefore, we expect the total scale and specific project details of the reconstruction plan to be announced in April or May.</p><p><b>The second critical time point: October.</b></p><p>The launch and implementation of Biden's reconstruction plan requires the approval of the U.S. Congress. Currently, Democrats control the House of Representatives and can easily pass bills there. However, the Democrats only have a slight advantage in the Senate, with only one more vote than the Republicans, and cannot bypass the Senate's \"filibuster\" (60 votes are required). There are only two ways for Biden's reconstruction plan to pass the Senate. One is to secure the support of at least 10 more Republican senators, provided that all Democratic senators agree. Second, the budget reconciliation process will be reactivated, consistent with the congressional process followed by the $1.9 trillion U.S. relief plan, requiring only 51 votes to pass the Senate.</p><p>Based on current statements from senior Republican Senate officials, the feasibility of the first option is extremely low. Senate Republican Leader McConnell said on Monday, \"We've heard that a so-called infrastructure bill may be introduced in the coming months, which could actually be a Trojan horse containing significant tax increases and other left-wing policies that harm jobs.\"</p><p>For Biden's reconstruction plan to be implemented, the most likely outcome is to initiate a budget reconciliation process. The U.S. fiscal year runs from October to September of the following year, and the budget reconciliation process can generally only be used once in a fiscal year (originally, the three areas of revenue, expenditure, and deficit each had one opportunity to initiate the budget reconciliation process each fiscal year, but bills generally cover more than one area, and historically, the budget reconciliation process can only be used once in a fiscal year at most). This year, the $1.9 trillion U.S. relief plan has already used the \"quota\" from fiscal year 2021. If the budget reconciliation process is to be initiated again, it will have to wait until the start of fiscal year 2022. October is the second crucial time. First, by October, the Democratic Party can once again initiate the \"budget reconciliation process.\" Secondly, judging from the statements of Democratic lawmakers, they hope to quickly pass the reconstruction plan bill. For example, House Speaker Pelosi hopes that Congress will take swift action to develop a transformative infrastructure plan.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b55345e7966f98cb44655e2ee1d5f0ea\" tg-width=\"1080\" tg-height=\"379\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>Appendix IV: Details of Biden's Reconstruction Plan</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2aeb3bd2d6946393ea99fee60d03300f\" tg-width=\"805\" tg-height=\"614\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/118a22c23672c23b7ffdaff2e00b0f9b\" tg-width=\"805\" tg-height=\"423\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1fd4d7b6dfaec3e2161aa5abc88d706f\" tg-width=\"804\" tg-height=\"522\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ee04e29c93d385e9e3f0123b9a2a6941\" tg-width=\"804\" tg-height=\"430\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6a302cf76ac1ec43059d2ec6818aa587\" tg-width=\"806\" tg-height=\"425\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>","source":"lsy1584436024241","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>A detailed explanation of Biden's reconstruction plan: How to build it?

Since the plan has not yet been officially announced, this report uses Biden's infrastructure and tax increase plans proposed during his campaign as a blueprint to understand Biden's infrastructure and tax increases from four perspectives (necessity, historical comparison, specific measures, and impact), in order to gain a general understanding of the measures and impact of the formal reconstruction plan in the future.</p><p>Biden's infrastructure: How to build it?</p><p><b>1. Is it necessary for the United States to invest heavily in infrastructure at present?</b></p><p>It is absolutely necessary. First, the state of infrastructure is worrying. According to ASCE's latest assessment, U.S. infrastructure remains \"mostly substandard,\" indicating a serious \"deterioration.\" According to the Global Competitiveness Report, the United States ranked 13th globally in infrastructure in 2019, up from 5th in 2002. Secondly, there is a large investment gap. The total infrastructure investment gap over the next decade has reached $2.59 trillion. Finally, infrastructure spending is far lower than that of major economies. Europe's infrastructure spending is equivalent to 5% of GDP, China's infrastructure spending is about 8% of GDP, and the United States' is only 2.4%. The United States mainly relies on local and state governments for infrastructure investment, but local governments are gradually \"unable to keep up\". As infrastructure stock continues to grow, state and local governments have had to bear more operating and maintenance costs, and new investment has been declining since the beginning of the 21st century.</p><p><b>II. Are there any precedents for the federal government leading infrastructure investment?</b></p><p>Historically, Biden's infrastructure investment is the second largest federal infrastructure investment in the United States since the last century. Since the beginning of the last century, the U.S. federal government has led four rounds of large-scale infrastructure investment, with the largest investment being the Roosevelt New Deal, which spent $18 billion on public works, accounting for 31% of GDP in 1933. The least invested was Obama's ARRA Act, which spent $120 billion on infrastructure, accounting for 0.8% of GDP in 2009. Eisenhower spent $25 billion to build interstate highways, accounting for 5.6% of GDP in 1956, while Clinton's information superhighway program cost a total of $400 billion, accounting for 5.8% of GDP in 1993. Biden's infrastructure investment amounted to approximately $1.3 trillion, accounting for 6.1% of GDP in 2019, making it the second largest investment since the last century.</p><p><b>III. What are Biden's specific infrastructure measures?</b></p><p>The plan proposed on Biden's campaign website is $2 trillion over 10 years, representing 9.3% of 2019 GDP. Infrastructure investment amounted to $1.3 trillion, accounting for 6.1% of GDP in 2019. The plan has three key points: 1) The content is very broad. It covers eight major areas: modern infrastructure, automotive industry development, clean power investment, building renovation and housing construction, clean energy investment, sustainable agriculture, equal community development, and manufacturing revitalization. 2) Promoting employment and rebuilding the middle class are the \"main focus\". 3) Keep manufacturing in the United States. The need to prevent manufacturing relocation is inherently consistent with the need to create jobs. It should be noted that the investment amounts for each sector in the plan are not yet clear, and only a few projects have proposed specific investment amounts.</p><p><b>IV. What impact will Biden's infrastructure projects have on the US economy?</b></p><p>1) Impact on GDP: Over 10 years, infrastructure spending will be approximately $130 billion annually. Estimated based on an output multiplier of 0.4-3 (assessed by the University of Maryland and the CBO), the additional output contribution to GDP will be approximately $52 billion to $390 billion annually, which is about 0.2% to 1.8% of the nominal GDP in 2019. 2) Impact on employment: Biden's reconstruction plan may create more than 10 million jobs in the United States over the next decade. 3) Bank of America estimates that Biden’s infrastructure plan may bring 2% to 9% GDP growth in the short term and “significant” GDP growth in the long term.</p><p>Biden raises taxes: How?</p><p><b>First, Biden's tax increase is almost certain.</b></p><p>Three reasons: 1) Tax increases are one of Biden's campaign slogans, and they are likely to be implemented. 2) Biden's campaign website explicitly states that the $1.3 trillion in infrastructure investment will be raised entirely by \"ensuring that the super-rich and corporations pay their fair share of (taxes).\" 3) Treasury Secretary Yellen has stated that part of the spending for the next bill (Biden's reconstruction plan) will be raised by tax increases.</p><p><b>Second, there are precedents for raising taxes.</b></p><p>Since the 1950s, the income tax rate in the United States has generally shown a downward trend, with more tax cuts and fewer tax increases. There were three major tax increases. The first was the \"Vietnam War Surcharge\" levied from 1968 to 1970 to cover the expenses of the Vietnam War. Second, in 1990, George H.W. Bush raised taxes to cope with the growing deficit. Third, Clinton raised taxes in 1993, which was the largest and most widespread tax increase in the United States since 1950, and its purpose was to reduce the fiscal deficit.</p><p><b>Third, the tax burden on the wealthy will increase, while the burden on the lower and middle classes will decrease; The tax burden on enterprises will increase, but the return of manufacturing will be encouraged.</b></p><p>Biden's target audience for tax increases is very clear: wealthy individuals and businesses, while tax incentives and credits for the lower and middle classes have been increased. On the one hand, the wage tax, income tax, capital gains tax, and inheritance tax for the wealthy will be increased; on the other hand, the corporate income tax rate will be raised again, and some other corporate taxes will be adjusted.</p><p><b>IV. What impact will Biden's tariffs have on the US economy?</b></p><p>In terms of economic growth, both the Tax Foundation and the Tax Policy Center estimate that tax increases will have a negative impact on economic growth over the next decade, reducing GDP by 1.62% to 3.4% over the next decade. In terms of tax revenue, the Tax Foundation believes that tax increases could raise approximately $2.8 trillion in tax revenue over the next decade, while the Tax Policy Center estimates that tax increases will reduce federal revenue by $161 billion over the next decade (about 8% of total revenue over 10 years). In addition, the Tax Foundation expects that tax increases will lead to lower wage levels and job losses, narrowing the income gap but reducing the overall after-tax income of residents.</p><p><b>Two key timelines: When might a formal redevelopment plan be launched?</b></p><p><b>The first key time point: April-May this year.</b></p><p>When Biden proposed the \"American Relief Plan\" on January 14th of this year, he clearly stated, \"When I appear before a joint session of Congress for the first time next month, I will present my 'Recovery Plan for a Better Future.'\" Biden's reconstruction plan should have been formally proposed in February, but the pandemic was the top priority. On February 11th, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi stated, \"We will not do anything until we pass the COVID-19 relief bill.\" Because the American relief plan encountered resistance in Congress and was not officially implemented until March 14th, Biden has not yet attended the joint session of Congress, and the reconstruction plan has not been formally proposed.</p><p>When will the joint session of Congress be held? This is the key. On March 24, White House Press Secretary Psaki said that there was no set date yet. Historically, the president has attended a joint session of Congress and delivered a \"speech to a joint session of Congress\" no later than February. It is now expected overseas that Biden will officially attend a joint session of Congress in April, at which time he will introduce the reconstruction plan to lawmakers. Goldman Sachs also predicts that the White House may submit a detailed budget proposal to Congress in May. Based on statements from senior Democratic officials, they hope the infrastructure plan will pass committees under the Senate and House of Representatives in May. Therefore, we expect the total scale and specific project details of the reconstruction plan to be announced in April or May.</p><p><b>The second critical time point: October.</b></p><p>First, after October, the Democratic Party can once again initiate the \"budget reconciliation procedure\". Second, the positive statements from top Democrats indicate that they will push the reconstruction plan to a congressional vote as quickly as possible or pursue a budget reconciliation process at the beginning of the new fiscal year.</p><p>Risk warning: Disagreements arise within the Democratic Party regarding the reconstruction plan.</p><p><b>Report Directory</b></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8a2d175dd5fcc77e4928e9a8001033b8\" tg-width=\"962\" tg-height=\"739\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>Main text of the report</p><p>Following the implementation of the $1.9 trillion U.S. relief Plan, discussions about the Biden Recovery Plan (Build Back Better Recovery Plan, which is also referred to as the \"Biden Infrastructure Plan\" in relevant domestic and international reports and reports because most of its measures are related to infrastructure) quickly intensified. According to a Bloomberg report on March 22, a reconstruction plan will soon be submitted to Biden, and the plan also includes a tax increase. White House Press Secretary Psaki also stated on the 22nd, \"Time is running out, so he will discuss the options, scale, and scope with his team this week.\" According to Biden's statement when proposing the relief plan, he will present his reconstruction plan to members of Congress during his first appearance at a joint session of Congress and his \"speech to a joint session of Congress,\" so the reconstruction plan may be officially \"unveiled\" in April.</p><p>Since Biden's reconstruction plan has not yet been released, this report will use the infrastructure and tax increase plans proposed by Biden during his campaign as a blueprint for analysis.</p><p>I. Biden's Infrastructure: How to \"Build\"?</p><p>Regarding Biden's infrastructure, we mainly need to clarify four questions. First, is it necessary for the United States to invest heavily in infrastructure at this time? Second, is there any historical experience of the US government leading large-scale infrastructure investment? If so, historically, what is the scale of Biden's infrastructure investment? Third, how exactly should the specific areas and measures of the infrastructure plan be constructed? Fourth, what is the impact of infrastructure plans on the US economy?</p><p>(a) Is it necessary for the United States to build large-scale infrastructure projects at present</p><p>The current state of infrastructure in the United States is worrying, and large-scale investment is very necessary. Most of the infrastructure systems in the United States were built in the 1960s, and many facilities have reached their maximum useful life and are nearing the point of \"obsolescence\".</p><p>I. The infrastructure condition is worrying, and the overall rating is low. The American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) rated U.S. infrastructure as \"D+\" (A-F) in 2017 and upgraded to \"C-\" in 2021. Although the rating has improved, it also indicates that U.S. infrastructure is still \"mostly substandard,\" showing a more serious \"deterioration\" situation. From a global perspective, the rating of the US infrastructure sector has also been declining over the past two decades. According to the World Economic Forum's Global Competitiveness Report, the United States ranked 13th globally in infrastructure in 2019, down from 5th in 2002, a drop of 8 places in 17 years.</p><p>Second, the United States currently has a large-scale infrastructure investment gap, which, if not filled, will have a huge negative impact on economic and social development. There are two sources of assessment: 1) A 2021 report by the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) stated that the total infrastructure investment gap in the United States has reached $2.59 trillion over the next decade. If not filled, the United States will lose $10 trillion in GDP and $2.4 trillion in exports by 2039. 2) A 2016 McKinsey study estimated that $150 billion in infrastructure investment would be needed annually from 2017 to 2030 to keep up with the U.S. economy’s demand for infrastructure.</p><p>Third, the United States spends far less on infrastructure than the world's major economies and relies heavily on state and local governments. European countries spend 5% of their GDP on infrastructure construction and maintenance, while China spends an average of about 8% of its GDP on infrastructure, while the United States spends only 2.4%[1]. Furthermore, unlike most other industrialized countries, the United States relies primarily on local and state government spending to meet its infrastructure needs. Most European countries or regions fund most infrastructure construction at the national level, but in 2017, only 25% of public infrastructure funding in the United States came from the federal government. This figure is far lower than the peak of 38% in 1977, indicating that the federal government is bearing less and less responsibility for spending on public infrastructure. As the stock of infrastructure in the United States continues to increase, state and local governments have had to bear more operating and maintenance costs, which has led to a decline in new infrastructure investment since the early 2000s.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/92d1fe0e962d44eff5f6d6a13da64df6\" tg-width=\"1080\" tg-height=\"482\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/80cf9e50d231575711b16ef73e71bb98\" tg-width=\"1080\" tg-height=\"383\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>(ii) Has the federal government made large-scale infrastructure investments in history?</p><p>Since the beginning of the last century, the United States has experienced four large-scale infrastructure investments led by the federal government. Historically, Biden's infrastructure plan is the second largest federal infrastructure investment in the United States since the beginning of the last century. Since the beginning of the last century, the U.S. federal government has led four rounds of large-scale infrastructure investment. The largest investment was in Roosevelt's New Deal, which spent $18 billion on public works, accounting for 31% of GDP in 1933. The least invested was Obama's ARRA Act, which included $120 billion in infrastructure spending, accounting for 0.8% of GDP in 2009. Eisenhower spent $25 billion to build interstate highways, about 5.6% of GDP in 1956, while Clinton's Information Superhighway program totaled $400 billion, or 5.8% of GDP in 1993. Biden's campaign website announced that infrastructure spending was approximately $1.3 trillion, accounting for about 6.1% of GDP in 2019, making it the second largest investment since the last century.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/482f1bb788c01537a9201e79b2e0f4b1\" tg-width=\"804\" tg-height=\"380\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>1. Roosevelt's New Deal</p><p>Following the Great Depression, to stimulate employment recovery, Roosevelt signed the National Industrial Recovery Act of 1933, believing that extensive public works programs could directly create jobs. The establishment of agencies such as the Federal Economic Relief Administration, the Public Works Administration (PWA), and the Works Promotion Agency (WPA) has created over ten million jobs in the United States. By the eve of World War II, federal government spending on engineering and direct relief had reached $18 billion, accounting for 31% of U.S. GDP in 1933 and 14% of U.S. GDP in 1941. In terms of broad spending, Roosevelt's New Deal federal spending totaled $41.7 billion, accounting for 73% of U.S. GDP in 1933 and 32% of U.S. GDP in 1941.</p><p>Large-scale public works spending has also yielded significant results: in terms of public works, WPA's small projects include 78,000 bridges and viaducts and 572,000 miles of rural roads; In the first six years of its establishment, the PWA completed approximately 1.14 street and highway projects, totaling 37,000 miles[2]. By the eve of World War II, the United States had built nearly 1,000 airfields, more than 12,000 sports fields, and more than 800 school buildings and hospitals. In terms of employment, the WPA alone provided jobs for approximately eight million people between 1935 and 1943.</p><p>2. Eisenhower: Interstate Highway</p><p>In the 1950s, Eisenhower advocated the construction of an interstate highway system in the United States. In 1956, he signed the Federal Highway Aid Act, authorizing $25 billion to build 41,000 miles of interstate highways over a decade. This cost would be paid for by tax revenues such as gasoline taxes deposited into the Federal Highway Trust Fund, with the federal government providing about 90% of the total expenditure and the remaining 10% paid by the states. The cost of building interstate highways accounted for about 5.6% of U.S. GDP in 1956.</p><p>3. Clinton: \"Information Superhighway Plan\"</p><p>In 1992, U.S. presidential candidate Bill Clinton proposed building an information superhighway during his campaign. After Clinton took office in 1993, the \"Information Superhighway Project\" was officially implemented. The planned investment is $400 billion over 20 years to gradually lay telecommunications fiber optic cables to all home users. In 1994, the U.S. government proposed an initiative to build a global information infrastructure, which aims to connect global information networks through satellite communications and telecommunications fiber optic cables and form a competitive mechanism for information sharing[3]. The total investment in the Information Superhighway Program accounted for 5.8% of U.S. GDP in 1993.</p><p>4. Obama: ARRA Fiscal Stimulus Act</p><p>Following the financial crisis, Obama signed the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) fiscal stimulus bill in February 2009, with an initial total size of $787 billion. The Congressional Budget Office projected total spending of approximately $840 billion in 2015, of which about $120 billion was for infrastructure projects, including: $48 billion for transportation and public transportation projects, $31 billion for the modernization of federal buildings, $31 billion for the modernization of school and scientific facilities, $6 billion for water conservancy projects, and $5 billion for housing climate change projects. Infrastructure spending under the ARRA Act accounted for only 0.8% of GDP in 2009.</p><p>(iii) What are the specific measures of Biden's infrastructure plan?</p><p>1. Three key points of the infrastructure plan</p><p>The \"Building Modern, Sustainable Infrastructure and a Fair, Clean Energy Future\" plan proposed on Biden's campaign website spans 10 years and totals $2 trillion, accounting for approximately 9.3% of GDP in 2019. If we only look at infrastructure spending, it is approximately $1.3 trillion, accounting for about 6.1% of GDP in 2019. The plan published on the campaign website has two characteristics:</p><p>First, the content is very broad. The plan is not limited to traditional infrastructure and clean energy investments, but also includes new infrastructure such as smart cities and broadband, automotive industry development, building renovation and affordable housing construction, sustainable agriculture, manufacturing revitalization and SME development, and community equality and development.</p><p>Secondly, promoting employment and rebuilding the middle class are the \"main focus\". It can be said that increasing employment and rebuilding the middle class are major objectives of Biden's massive infrastructure development. In Biden's vision, the plan can significantly create new jobs. For example, investment in infrastructure will create millions of jobs, the automotive industry will create 1 million jobs, investment in the power sector will create millions of jobs, investment in construction and housing will create 1 million high-paying jobs, and agricultural protection will create 250,000 jobs.</p><p>Third, keep manufacturing in the United States. Preventing the relocation of manufacturing is inherently consistent with the need to create jobs. This statement was mentioned multiple times in the plan, for example: ensuring that automakers are encouraged to build or restructure vehicle or parts factories domestically; Invest in battery technology, but ensure that battery production is carried out domestically, etc.</p><p>In addition, it is worth noting that the specific investment amounts for each sector in the infrastructure plan are still unclear, with only a few projects proposing clear investment amounts. Because the plan was very \"rough,\" it did not have a very detailed spending plan, and only proposed investment amounts for a few projects, such as increasing federal procurement by $400 billion during the first term (the specific procurement plan was not specified). $100 billion to improve public school buildings; In his first year in office, he invested $50 billion to repair highways, roads, and bridges; Invest $20 billion to build rural broadband infrastructure and provide $60 billion to expand broadband access in rural areas; An additional $10 billion will be invested over 10 years to support transportation projects in low-income areas; A $40 billion, 10-year transformation project fund will be used to fund major infrastructure projects, among other things. The investment amount explicitly mentioned in the plan brief is only a little over $800 billion.</p><p>2. Beyond infrastructure, the plan covers eight major areas.</p><p>Overall, Biden's infrastructure plan is not limited to the \"infrastructure sector,\" but has a very broad scope, covering eight major areas: modern infrastructure, automotive industry development, clean electricity investment, building renovation and housing construction, clean energy investment, sustainable agriculture, equal community development, and manufacturing revitalization (a brief introduction is below; see the appendix for details).</p><p>First, build modern infrastructure.</p><p>1) Road repair and construction. In his first year in office, he invested $50 billion in repairing highways, roads, and bridges, and made transportation investments in remote areas. 2) The Second Railway Revolution. Invest heavily in high-speed rail, improve the passenger and freight railway systems, promote the electrification of the railway system, and reduce diesel emissions. 3) Vigorously develop public transportation. By 2030, high-quality public transportation systems will be built in cities with a population of over 100,000. Invest an additional $10 billion over 10 years to support transportation projects in low-income areas. 4) Improve the airport. Double funding for airport improvement programs, provide competitive grants for major airport renovation projects, and fully implement next-generation aviation technology systems. 5) Invest heavily in freight infrastructure, including inland waterways, freight corridors, freight railways, transit facilities and ports. Increase grants for the BUILD and INFRA transportation infrastructure grant projects from 1.8 billion to 3.5 billion annually; Add 2.5 billion yuan annually to the Army Corps of Engineers to promote the modernization of ship locks in inland waterways; Support port port infrastructure. 6) Water conservancy infrastructure construction. Replace aging pipes, double federal investment in clean drinking water and water infrastructure, monitor lead and other contaminants in water systems, and hold polluting companies accountable. Invest in water technology research and development and encourage private sector innovation. 7) New infrastructure projects: smart city construction. $1 billion annually to help five cities pilot new planning strategies and smart city technologies. Invest in broadband networks. Invest $20 billion to build rural broadband infrastructure, and $60 billion to expand broadband access in rural areas and increase the number of broadband providers participating. 8) Establish a transformation project fund. Establish a $40 billion, 10-year transformation project fund to provide assistance for large and complex infrastructure projects.</p><p>Second, it will enable the U.S. auto industry to lead the world this century and accelerate the transition to low-carbon and carbon-free vehicles.</p><p>1) Demand side: Restore the full tax credit for electric vehicles, use federal procurement to increase demand for clean vehicles, and accelerate the upgrade of 3 million government-system vehicles.

Quadruple funding for the Manufacturing Expansion Partnership Project to provide technical support to small manufacturers in global competition; Develop low-carbon manufacturing in each state; Use tax credits and subsidies to help businesses upgrade equipment and processes, invest in expanding or building new factories, and deploy low-carbon technologies; Provide funding for more competitive or low-carbon manufacturing industries, etc. 2) Promote the development of small and medium-sized enterprises Extend the National Small Business Credit Initiative program to 2025, and increase federal funding to $3 billion; Provide $5 billion to states to develop policies that encourage small business startups, such as supporting technology transfer from public universities to the private sector.</p><p>(iv) What is the impact of Biden's infrastructure on the US economy?</p><p>How should the impact of infrastructure spending on the economy be assessed? We can draw on past assessments of infrastructure effectiveness by American academia and think tanks: 1) A 2014 study by the University of Maryland showed that every $1 spent on public transportation infrastructure investment increases GDP by about $3, with a greater impact during economic recessions. 2) According to a 2014 report by the University of Chicago, an $83 billion infrastructure investment plan—roughly equivalent to 0.6% of GDP—will create 1.7 million jobs in the first three years. 3) According to estimates by global consulting firm McKinsey & Company, every 1 percentage point of GDP increase in U.S. infrastructure spending will create 1.5 million jobs for the economy. 4) The Economic Policy Institute estimates that the return on investment in infrastructure is very high. A review of dozens of infrastructure studies shows that every $100 spent... in the long run will increase private sector output by $13 (median) and $17 (average), respectively. 5) According to the U.S. Congressional Budget Office's (CBO) assessment of Obama's ARRA Act, the output multiplier for infrastructure is between 0.4 and 2.2.</p><p>We can draw on the assessment results of infrastructure effects from American academia and think tanks to roughly estimate the overall impact of Biden's infrastructure plan on the US economy and employment.</p><p>1) Impact on GDP: Biden's infrastructure plan identifies infrastructure spending of approximately $1.3 trillion, with an investment cycle of 10 years, averaging about $130 billion per year, accounting for about 0.6% of GDP in 2019. Estimated based on an output multiplier of 0.4-3 (combined with the output multiplier estimated by the University of Maryland and the CBO), the additional output contribution to GDP over the next ten years will be approximately $52 billion to $390 billion, which is about 0.2% to 1.8% of the nominal GDP in 2019.</p><p>2) Impact on employment: According to the University of Chicago's employment impact estimate, $1.3 trillion in infrastructure spending will create more than 2 million jobs annually over the next decade. According to McKinsey's assessment, it is estimated that approximately 10 million jobs will be created over the next decade. The job impact estimated in the Biden team's plan brief is to create more than 10 million jobs. In summary, Biden's reconstruction plan could create more than 10 million jobs in the United States over the next decade.</p><p>3) Bank of America estimated in a report that Biden’s $2 trillion infrastructure plan could bring 2% to 9% GDP growth in the short term and “significant growth” in the long term, and that every 1% increase in U.S. GDP growth would bring about 3% to 4% growth in the earnings of S&P 500 companies[4].</p><p>II. Biden's Tax Increase: How Will It Be</p><p>Similarly, let's understand Biden's tax increases from four perspectives. First, is Biden certain he wants to raise taxes, and what is the purpose of raising taxes? Second, is there any precedent for raising taxes in American history? Third, how does Biden plan to raise taxes? Fourth, what impact will the tax increase have on the US economy?</p><p>(a) Is Biden determined to raise taxes? What is the purpose?</p><p>Will Biden raise taxes? Tax increases should be a certainty. First, Biden clearly proposed a tax increase plan during his campaign, which was one of his campaign slogans, and it is highly likely that he will implement it. Second, Biden's campaign website states that up to $1.3 trillion in infrastructure investment will be funded entirely by \"ensuring that the super-rich and corporations pay their fair share of taxes.\" Third, Treasury Secretary Yellen has stated that part of the spending for the next bill (referring to Biden's reconstruction plan bill) will be raised by tax increases.</p><p>Biden's tax hikes have three purposes: first, to raise funds for reconstruction programs; second, to fulfill campaign promises; and third, to promote tax fairness through tax system adjustments and to adjust the wealth gap through redistribution. It is clear from the tax system adjustments that the tax burden on the wealthy, high-income groups, and businesses has increased, while the tax credits for low- and middle-income earners have expanded significantly.</p><p>(ii) Are there any precedents for tax increases?</p><p>Before 1950, the highest marginal rates of personal income tax and corporate income tax in the United States both showed a gradual upward trend. During this period, the main reason for tax increases was to raise funds for war. During World War I and World War II, the highest marginal rates of personal income tax and corporate income tax rose significantly. Since the 1950s, the highest marginal tax rates for personal income tax and corporate income tax in the United States have generally shown a gradual downward trend, with many periods of tax cuts and very few periods of tax increases.</p><p>There have been five major tax cuts since 1950: the Kennedy tax cuts in 1963, the Carter tax cuts in 1979, the Reagan tax cuts in the 1980s, the George W. Bush tax cuts in 2001, and the Trump tax cuts in 2017.</p><p>The most obvious tax increases since 1950 have been three.</p><p>The first time was in the late 1960s. The main reason for the tax increase was still war factors. From 1968 to 1970, in order to cover the expenses of the Vietnam War, the United States levied the \"Vietnam War Surcharge,\" which was abolished after 1970.</p><p>The second instance was in 1990, when George H.W. Bush passed the Oversight Budget Reconciliation Act of 1990 to cope with the increased deficit caused by the sharp rise in public spending on defense and healthcare, raising the highest marginal personal income tax rate from 28% to 31%.</p><p>The third was Clinton's tax increase in 1993, which was also the largest and most widespread tax increase in the United States since 1950. To reduce the fiscal deficit, Clinton proposed a tax increase plan in 1993, raising the top marginal personal income tax rate from 31% to 39.6% and the top marginal corporate income tax rate from 34% to 35%. It is worth noting that the increase in the highest marginal personal income tax rate from 35% to 39.6% in 2012 was not due to tax increases, but rather because the Bush tax cuts had expired, and the tax rate automatically returned to the level before the tax cuts.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/059fc482c64a72c92006019e12fd347f\" tg-width=\"819\" tg-height=\"450\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9a271519721bfe2d2e70b5c022a30421\" tg-width=\"1080\" tg-height=\"683\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>(iii) How does Biden plan to raise taxes?</p><p>Biden's tax increases mainly focus on two aspects:<b>First, wage tax, income tax, capital gains tax, and inheritance tax for high-income groups; second, the corporate income tax rate will be raised again, and some corporate taxes will be adjusted.</b>As can be seen from the specific details of the following clauses, Biden's targets for tax increases are very clear: wealthy groups and businesses, while tax incentives and credits for the lower and middle classes of society have been increased.</p><p>1. Individual tax system adjustment: The tax burden on the wealthy increases, while the burden on the lower and middle classes decreases.</p><p>1) A 12.4% Social Security payroll tax would be levied on people earning more than $400,000 a year, split equally between employers and employees. Under the pioneering tax law, individuals with annual incomes above 137,700 do not need to pay Social Security payroll tax.</p><p>2) Raise the maximum personal income tax rate for taxable income exceeding $400,000 from the current 37% to 39.6%; For groups with an annual income exceeding $400,000, even with tax incentives for itemized deductions, their personal income tax rate must not be lower than 28%. Restore the \"Pease Limit\" on item deductions for taxable income exceeding $400,000; For groups with taxable income exceeding $400,000, the eligible business income deduction will be gradually eliminated.</p><p>3) Tax long-term capital gains and qualified Dividend income exceeding US$1 million at an ordinary income tax rate of 39.6%, eliminating the progressive nature of capital gains tax.</p><p>4) Tax credits: Expand the labor income tax credit for employees aged 65 and above without children, and provide individuals with tax credits related to renewable energy; Expand the Child and Dependent Tax Credit (CDCTC) from a maximum of $3,000 to $8,000 ($16,000 for multiple dependents) and increase the maximum reimbursement rate from 35% to 50%. In 2021, the Child Tax Credit (CTC) for children aged 17 and under will be increased from a maximum of $2,000 to $3,000, while an additional $600 credit will be provided for children under 6, with the CTC being fully refunded. It is worth mentioning that the measures regarding CTC have been implemented in the 1.9 trillion relief plan; Rebuild the first-time homebuyer tax credit policy, providing a $15,000 tax credit for first-time homebuyers.</p><p>5) Restore the rates and exemptions for inheritance tax and gift tax to the levels of 2009. Following Trump's tax reform in 2017, the estate and gift tax exemption for 2018-2025 was increased from $5 million to $10 million per person, while the tax rate remained at 40%. If it returns to 2009 levels, the tax allowance will be reduced from the current 10 million to 3.5 million, and the tax rate will increase from 40% to 45%.</p><p>6) Other adjustments lacking clear information: Replace traditional deductions by providing refundable tax credits to balance the tax benefits of traditional retirement accounts (such as 401(k) and individual retirement accounts); Abolish certain provisions of the real estate tax; Expanding the Affordable Care Act premium tax credit; Create a refundable tenant tax credit and provide a credit of no more than $5 billion per year, aiming to keep rent and utility bills below 30% of tenants' monthly income; Increase the amount of housing tax credits for low-income earners.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ee544b934d79e80772ee93dede7fba86\" tg-width=\"954\" tg-height=\"583\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c55ac12a24c96f38ba548d45117f82cb\" tg-width=\"945\" tg-height=\"759\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>2. Corporate tax system adjustment: Tax burden increases, but manufacturing is encouraged to return.</p><p>1) Raise the corporate income tax rate from 21% to 28%.</p><p>2) Impose a minimum tax on companies with book profits exceeding $100 million. The minimum tax is an alternative tax – businesses will pay the higher of regular corporate income tax or the 15% minimum tax, while still allowing net operating loss (NOL) and foreign tax credits.</p><p>3) Double the Global Intangible Low Tax Income Tax rate for overseas subsidiaries of U.S. companies from 10.5% to 21%. It is proposed to conduct a country-by-country assessment of GILTI of overseas subsidiaries and remove the provision that treats GILTI below 10% of qualified corporate asset investments (QBAI) as a return exemption.</p><p>Prior to the 2017 tax reform, the United States generally taxed the global income of its companies and residents. U.S. companies could apply to defer taxation on the active business income of their overseas subsidiaries until the income was repatriated to the United States as Dividend. Following tax reform, the United States exempted earnings from active operations of U.S. companies' overseas subsidiaries, meaning they would not be taxed even if these earnings were repatriated (but passive investment income from foreign subsidiaries would still be taxed). The U.S. Congress, concerned that a complete exemption for multinational corporations' foreign income could exacerbate their practice of shifting profits to low-tax jurisdictions overseas, imposed a minimum tax rate of 10.5% on low-tax income from global intangible assets to prevent profit shifting. GILTI refers to revenue generated from intangible assets such as patents, trademarks, and copyrights. Intangible assets are highly mobile, and this tax rate attempts to prevent U.S. companies from transferring intangible assets overseas.</p><p>4) Tax credits: Establish tax credits for the manufacturing sector; Expand tax credits for new markets and make them permanent; Provide tax credits for small businesses that adopt workplace retirement savings plans; Expand tax credits related to renewable energy, including those for carbon capture, use, and storage, as well as those for residential energy efficiency, and restore the Energy Investment Tax Credit (ITC) and Electric Vehicle Tax Credit, ending tax subsidies for fossil fuels.</p><p>5) Other adjustments lacking clear information: A 10% surtax will be imposed on companies that \"transfer manufacturing and service jobs overseas in order to sell products or provide services to the U.S. market.\" A priority 10% Made in America tax credit is provided for activities that resume production, revitalize closed or soon-to-be-closed facilities, restructure facilities to promote manufacturing employment, or expand manufacturing wage scales.</p><p>(iv) The impact of Biden's tariffs on the US economy</p><p>The impact of tariffs on the economy is quite complex. We mainly rely on assessments by overseas think tanks to gain a general understanding of the impact of Biden's tariffs on the US economy.<b>In terms of economic growth, both the Tax Foundation and the Tax Policy Center estimate that tax increases will have a negative impact on economic growth over the next decade, reducing GDP by 1.62% to 3.4% over the next decade. In terms of tax revenue, the Tax Foundation believes that tax increases could raise approximately $2.8 trillion in tax revenue over the next decade, while the Tax Policy Center estimates that tax increases will reduce federal revenue by $161 billion over the next decade (about 8% of total revenue over those 10 years).</b>In addition, the Tax Foundation expects that tax increases will lead to lower wage levels and job losses, narrowing the income gap but reducing the overall after-tax income of residents.</p><p>1. Tax Foundation estimates</p><p>1) Impact of fiscal revenue: Biden’s tax plan will raise approximately $2.8 trillion over the next 10 years. 2) Economic impact: Over the next decade, it will reduce GDP by a total of 1.62%, GNP by a total of 1.83%, reduce the capital stock by 3.75%, reduce the long-term average wage level by 1.15%, and cause the loss of 542,000 jobs. 3) Impact of income distribution: Biden’s tax plan will reduce the after-tax income of the richest 1% of taxpayers by about 7.7% by 2030, and the average after-tax income of all taxpayers will decrease by 1.9%.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/92310243b616c89248067f2f1a18ffc3\" tg-width=\"1080\" tg-height=\"475\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>2. Tax Policy Center</p><p>1) Economic impact: This will reduce the total US GDP by 3.4% over the next decade. The impact on GDP will turn positive in 2040, and the positive impact will gradually increase in the years after 2040. 2) Revenue impact: This will reduce U.S. federal revenue by $161 billion from 2021 to 2030 (approximately 8% of total revenue over those 10 years) and by $90 billion from 2031 to 2040. By 2040, the impact of the tax plan on federal revenue will turn positive, and its positive effect will gradually increase in the following years of 2040.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0b75c8d26db2d05446f6e6db4dec6a9a\" tg-width=\"944\" tg-height=\"470\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3d0a76e285bdc0d17be49c9ec0fbade5\" tg-width=\"951\" tg-height=\"364\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>III. Key Timeline: When might the formal reconstruction plan be launched?</p><p>Currently, the Biden team has not released a formal plan or investment details. To track Biden's reconstruction plan, there are two key timelines worth paying attention to:</p><p><b>The first key time point: April-May this year.</b></p><p>When Biden first proposed the \"American Relief Plan\" on January 14 this year, he clearly stated: \"Next month, when I attend my first joint session of Congress, I will propose my 'Recovery Plan for a Better Future'[5].\" Under normal circumstances, Biden's reconstruction plan should have been formally proposed in February, but the pandemic was the top priority. On February 11, House Speaker Pelosi said, \"We will not do anything until we pass the COVID-19 relief bill.\" Because the American relief plan encountered resistance in Congress and was not officially implemented until March 14, Biden has not yet attended the joint session of Congress, and the reconstruction plan has not been formally proposed.</p><p>When will the joint session of Congress be held? This is the key. On March 24, White House Press Secretary Psaki stated, \"There is no set date yet... We are certainly still interested in committing to a joint meeting. We will stay in touch with them, but I don't know the specific time.\" Historically, the latest time a president has attended a joint session of Congress and delivered a \"speech to a joint session of Congress\" is no later than February. It is now expected that Biden will officially attend a joint session of Congress in April[6], at which time he will introduce the reconstruction plan to lawmakers. Goldman Sachs also predicts that the White House may submit a detailed budget proposal to Congress in May. Based on statements from senior Democratic officials, they hope the infrastructure plan will pass committees under the Senate and House of Representatives in May. Therefore, we expect the total scale and specific project details of the reconstruction plan to be announced in April or May.</p><p><b>The second critical time point: October.</b></p><p>The launch and implementation of Biden's reconstruction plan requires the approval of the U.S. Congress. Currently, Democrats control the House of Representatives and can easily pass bills there. However, the Democrats only have a slight advantage in the Senate, with only one more vote than the Republicans, and cannot bypass the Senate's \"filibuster\" (60 votes are required). There are only two ways for Biden's reconstruction plan to pass the Senate. One is to secure the support of at least 10 more Republican senators, provided that all Democratic senators agree. Second, the budget reconciliation process will be reactivated, consistent with the congressional process followed by the $1.9 trillion U.S. relief plan, requiring only 51 votes to pass the Senate.</p><p>Based on current statements from senior Republican Senate officials, the feasibility of the first option is extremely low. Senate Republican Leader McConnell said on Monday, \"We've heard that a so-called infrastructure bill may be introduced in the coming months, which could actually be a Trojan horse containing significant tax increases and other left-wing policies that harm jobs.\"</p><p>For Biden's reconstruction plan to be implemented, the most likely outcome is to initiate a budget reconciliation process. The U.S. fiscal year runs from October to September of the following year, and the budget reconciliation process can generally only be used once in a fiscal year (originally, the three areas of revenue, expenditure, and deficit each had one opportunity to initiate the budget reconciliation process each fiscal year, but bills generally cover more than one area, and historically, the budget reconciliation process can only be used once in a fiscal year at most). This year, the $1.9 trillion U.S. relief plan has already used the \"quota\" from fiscal year 2021. If the budget reconciliation process is to be initiated again, it will have to wait until the start of fiscal year 2022. October is the second crucial time. First, by October, the Democratic Party can once again initiate the \"budget reconciliation process.\" Secondly, judging from the statements of Democratic lawmakers, they hope to quickly pass the reconstruction plan bill. For example, House Speaker Pelosi hopes that Congress will take swift action to develop a transformative infrastructure plan.</p><p><img

付春生主要观点1.9万亿美元救济落地后，关于拜登基建计划的讨论热度迅速升温。由于计划目前尚未正式公布，本篇报告以拜登在竞选时提出的基建计划和加税计划作为蓝本，从四个角度（必要性、历史比较、具体措施、影响）去理解拜登的基建和加税，以期对未来正式的重建计划的措施和影响进行大致摸底。拜登基建：怎么建？一、美国目前有没有必要大兴基建？非常有必要。首先，基础设施状况堪忧。据ASCE最新评估，美国基础设施仍「大多低于标准」，表现出较为严重的「恶化」状况。据《全球竞争力报告》，2019年美国在基础设施领域的排名居全球第13位，2002年时则居第5位。其次，存在大规模投资缺口。未来十年基建总投资缺口已经达到2.59万亿美元。最后，基建支出力度远低于主要经济体，欧洲基建支出相当于GDP的5％，中国基建支出约占GDP的8％，而美国仅为2.4％。美国主要依赖地方和州政府进行基建投资，但地方政府逐渐「力不能及」。随着基建存量不断增加，州和地方政府不得不承担更多的运营和维护成本，新增投资额自21世纪初以来一直下降。二、有无联邦政府主导基建投资的先例？从历史比较看，拜登基建是上世纪来美国第二大规模的联邦基建投资。上世纪以来，美国联邦政府主导了四轮大规模基建投资，投资力度最大的是罗斯福新政，公共工程类支出180亿美元，占1933年GDP的31%；投资力度最小的是奥巴马ARRA法案，基建类支出1200亿美元，占2009年GDP的0.8%。艾森豪威尔修建州际高速公路的耗资为250亿美元，占1956年GDP的5.6%，克林顿的信息高速公路计划总投资额4000亿，占1993年GDP的5.8%。拜登基建投资的规模大约1.3万亿美元，占2019年GDP的6.1%，是上世纪以来规模第二大的投资。三、拜登基建的具体措施有哪些？拜登竞选网站上提出的计划规模为2 万亿美元，为期10年，占2019年GDP的9.3%；其中基建投资1.3万亿美元，占2019年GDP的6.1%。计划有三个重点：1）内容十分广泛。涵盖了现代化基建、汽车工业发展、清洁电力投资、建筑改造和住房建设、清洁能源投资、可持续农业、社区平等发展和制造业振兴共八大领域。2）促进就业和重建中产阶级是「重头戏」。3）把制造业留在美国。防止制造业外迁与创造就业的需求是内在一致的。需注意的是，计划中各领域的投资额尚不明晰，只有少数项目提出了明确投资额。四、拜登基建对美国经济有何影响？1）对GDP的影响：10年里，每年基建支出约1300亿，按照产出乘数0.4-3来估计（马里兰大学和CBO的评估），每年对GDP的额外产出贡献约为520亿~3900亿美元，约为2019年名义GDP的0.2%~1.8%。2）对就业的影响：拜登的重建计划在未来十年或将给美国创造超千万的就业岗位。3）美银估计，拜登基建计划在短期内可能会带来2％至9％的GDP增长，从长期来看会使GDP「显著增长」。拜登加税：怎么加？一、拜登加税基本是确定的。三大理由：1）加税是拜登竞选口号之一，大概率将履行。2）在拜登竞选网站上明确写到， 1.3万亿基建投资将全部通过「确保超级富豪和企业支付他们公平的（税收）份额」来筹集。3）财政部长耶伦曾表示，下一个法案（拜登重建计划）的一部分支出将由加税来筹集。二、加税有先例可寻。1950年代以来，美国所得税率整体呈下降趋势，减税多，加税少。主要的加税有三次，一是1968-1970年为应对越战开支而征收的「越战附加税」。二是1990年老布什为应对赤字增长而加税。三是1993年克林顿加税，这也是1950年以来美国最大范围和规模的一次加税，其目的也是为了削减财政赤字。三、富人税负增加，中下阶层减负；企业税负增加，但鼓励制造业回流。拜登的加税对象非常明确，就是富有群体和企业，对社会中下阶层的税收优惠和抵免反而提高了。一方面，提高富裕群体的工资税、所得税、资本利得税和遗产税等，另一方面，重新上调企业所得税率，对其他一些企业税进行调整。四、拜登加税对美国经济有何影响？就经济增长而言，税务基金会和税收政策中心均预估加税会对未来十年对经济增长造成负面影响，会使未来十年GDP下降1.62%~3.4%。就税收收入而言，税务基金会认为加税在未来十年可以筹集约2.8万亿税收收入，而税收政策中心估计加税将使未来十年联邦收入减少1610亿美元（约占10年总收入的8%）。此外税务基金会预计加税将使工资水平下降、就业岗位流失，使收入差距缩小但整体居民税后收入下降。两个关键时间点：正式的重建计划可能会在什么时候推出？第一个关键时间点：今年4-5月。拜登在今年1月14日提出「美国救济计划」时曾明确说道：「在我下个月第一次出席国会联席会议时，我将提出我的‘重建更好未来的复苏计划’。」拜登的重建计划本应该在2月份就正式提出，但疫情才是第一要务，2月11日众议院议长佩洛西表示，「在我们通过新冠疫情纾困法案之前，我们不会做任何事情。」由于美国救济计划在国会遭遇阻力，直到3月14日才正式落地，因此拜登至今还未出席国会联席会议，重建计划也还没有正式提出。国会联席会议什么时候召开呢？这是关键。3月24日白宫发言人普萨基表示，目前还没有确定时间。历史上，总统出席国会联席会议并发表「在国会联席会议上的演讲」的时间最晚不超过2月份。现在海外预期拜登将在4月正式出席国会联席会议，那么届时他将向议员介绍重建计划。另据高盛预计，白宫或在5月向国会递交详细的预算方案。再根据民主党高层的表态，希望基建方案能在5月通过参众两院下属的委员会，所以我们预计，重建计划的总规模和具体的项目细节大概率将于4-5月公布。第二个关键时间点：10月。第一，10月以后民主党可再次启用「预算和解程序」。第二，民主党高层的积极表态表明其会尽可能快地推动重建计划进入国会表决或者在新财年伊始就推动重建计划再走预算和解程序。风险提示：民主党内部就重建计划产生分歧。报告目录报告正文在1.9万亿美国救济计划落地后，关于拜登重建计划（Build Back Better Recovery Plan，因其大部分措施与基建相关，国内外相关报道和报告也将之称为「拜登基建计划」）的讨论热度迅速升温。据彭博3月22日的报道，近期重建计划方案将递交给拜登，且该计划还包含了加税方案。白宫新闻秘书普萨基也在22日表示，「时间快了，所以他本周将与他的团队讨论有哪些选择，规模和范围。」根据拜登在提出救济计划时的表态，他将在第一次出席国会联席会议并发表「在国会联席会议上的演讲」时，向国会议员推介他的重建计划，所以重建计划或将在4月正式「亮相」。由于拜登的重建计划目前尚未公布，本篇报告就以拜登在竞选时提出的基建计划和加税计划作为蓝本来分析。一、拜登基建：怎么「建」？关于拜登基建，我们主要弄清楚四个问题即可。第一，美国目前有没有必要大兴基建？第二，有没有美国政府主导基建大投资的历史经验？如果有，从历史比较，拜登基建投资规模如何？第三，基建计划的具体领域和措施，到底如何建？第四，基建计划对美国经济的影响如何？（一）美国目前有必要大兴基建吗？美国目前的基础设施状况堪忧，非常有必要进行大规模投资。美国大部分的基础设施系统建成于1960年代，许多设施已经达到了最大使用期限，接近「报废」的关头。一、基础设施状况堪忧，综合评定等级较低。美国土木工程师学会（ASCE）2017年对美国基础设施的评定等级为「D+」（等级为A-F），2021年的评定等级升至「C-」。虽然评级有所好转，但也表明美国基础设施仍「大多低于标准」，表现出较为严重的「恶化」状况。从全球比较看，近二十年来美国基础设施领域的评级也在不断下降。根据世界经济论坛的《全球竞争力报告》，2019年美国在基础设施领域的排名位居全球第13位，而2002年时则位居5位，17年里下降了8个名次。二、美国目前存在大规模基建投资缺口，如果不弥补，会对经济和社会发展造成巨大负面影响。有两个评估来源：1）美国土木工程师学会（ASCE）2021年报告认为，未来十年美国基建投资总缺口已经达到2.59万亿美元，如果不弥补，到2039年美国将损失10万亿GDP，损失2.4万亿出口。2）麦肯锡2016年的研究认为，从2017年至2030年，每年需要1500亿美元的基础设施投资，才能跟上美国经济对基础设施的需求。三、美国基建支出力度远低于世界主要经济体，并且主要依赖于州和地方政府。欧洲国家在建设和维护基础设施上的支出相当于GDP的5％，中国的基础设施支出平均约占其GDP的8％，而美国仅为2.4％[1]。此外，与多数其他工业化国家的不同之处在于，美国主要依赖地方和州政府的支出来满足其基础设施的需求。大多数欧洲国家或地区在国家层面上为大部分基础设施建设提供资金，但2017年美国公共基础设施资金中只有25％来自联邦政府，这个数字远低于1977年38％的峰值，表明联邦政府在公共基建上承担的支出责任越来越少。随着美国基建存量不断增加，州和地方政府不得不承担更多的运营和维护成本，也使得基建的新增投资额从2000年代初以来一直下降。（二）历史上联邦政府进行过基建大投资吗？上世纪以来，美国经历过四次联邦政府主导的大规模基建投资，从历史比较看，拜登基建计划是上世纪以来美国第二大规模的联邦基建投资。上世纪以来美国联邦政府主导了四轮大规模基建投资，投资力度最大的是罗斯福新政，公共工程相关支出180亿美元，占1933年GDP的31%；投资力度最小的是奥巴马ARRA法案，其中基建类支出1200亿美元，占2009年GDP的0.8%。艾森豪威尔修建州际高速公路的耗资为250亿美元，约占1956年GDP的5.6%，克林顿的信息高速公路计划总投资额4000亿，占1993年GDP的5.8%。拜登竞选网站上公布的基建类支出大约为1.3万亿美元，约占2019年GDP的6.1%，是上世纪以来规模第二大的投资。1、罗斯福新政大萧条后，为了刺激就业复苏，1933年罗斯福签署《国家工业复兴法》，他认为通过广泛的的公共工程计划能直接带来就业机会。通过设立联邦经济救济署、公共工程管理局（PWA）、公共事业振兴署（WPA）等机构为美国带来了逾千万的就业。到二战前夕，联邦政府工程费用和直接救济费用支出高达180亿美元，占1933年美国GDP比重的31%，占1941年美国GDP比重的14%。如果从广义支出看，罗斯福新政的联邦支出总额为417亿美元，占1933年美国GDP比重的73%，占1941年美国GDP比重的32%。大规模公共工程支出也取得了显著成果：公共工程方面，WPA的小型项目包括了7.8万座桥梁和高架桥、57.2万英里乡村公路；而PWA在建立的前六年里即完成了约1.14个街道和公路项目，总长达3.7万英里[2]。到二战前夕，美国一共修建了近1000座飞机场、12000多个运动场、800多座校舍与医院。就业方面，仅WPA就在1935-1943年为大约八百万人提供了工作机会。2、艾森豪威尔：州际高速公路1950年代，艾森豪威尔主张修建美国州际高速公路系统。1956年，他签署了《联邦援助公路法》，获得了250亿美元的授权，用于在十年内建造4.1万英里的州际高速公路，这笔费用将由存入联邦公路信托基金的汽油税等税收收入支付，联邦政府提供约90%的总支出，其余10%由各州支付。修建州际高速公路的耗资约占1956年美国GDP的5.6%。3、克林顿：「信息高速公路计划」1992年，美国总统候选人克林顿在竞选时提出，要建设信息高速公路。1993年克林顿上台后，正式实施「信息高速公路计划」。计划投资额为4000亿美元，为期20年，逐步将电信光缆铺设到所有家庭用户。1994年，美国政府提出建设全球信息基础设施的倡议，旨在通过卫星通讯和电信光缆连通全球信息网络，形成信息共享的竞争机制[3]。信息高速公路计划总投资额占1993年美国GDP的5.8%。4、奥巴马：ARRA财政刺激法案金融危机后，奥巴马在2009年2月签署财政刺激法案《美国复苏和再投资法案（ARRA）》，初始总规模为7870亿美元，2015年国会预算办公室预计总支出大约为8400亿美元，其中大约有1200亿用于基建项目相关支出，包括：480亿用于运输和公共交通项目，310亿用于联邦建筑现代化改造，310亿用于学校设施和科学设施现代化改造，60亿用于水利项目，50亿用于房屋气候改造项目。ARRA法案的基建类支出规模占2009年GDP比重仅为0.8%。（三）拜登基建计划的具体措施？1、基建计划的三个重点拜登竞选网站上提出的「建设现代、可持续的基础设施和公平、清洁的能源未来」计划，计划跨度为期10年，总规模为 2 万亿美元，约占2019年GDP的9.3%；如果仅看基建类支出，大约为1.3万亿美元，约占2019年GDP的6.1%。竞选网站上公布的计划有两个特点：第一，内容十分广泛。计划不仅仅局限于传统的基础设施和清洁能源投资，还包括智慧城市和宽带等新基建，汽车工业发展，建筑改造和保障性住房建设，可持续农业，制造业振兴和中小企业发展，社区平等和发展等多个领域。第二，促进就业和重建中产阶级是「重头戏」。可以说，增加就业和中产阶级重建是拜登大兴基建的一大主要目的。在拜登的设想里，计划可以大幅创造新的就业岗位，比如：基建领域的投资将创造数百万个就业机会，汽车工业领域将创造100万个就业机会，电力领域的投资将创造数百万个就业岗位，建筑和住房领域投资将创造100万个高薪岗位，农业保护领域将创造25万个工作岗位等。第三，把制造业留在美国。防止制造业外迁，与创造就业的需求是内在一致的。这一说法在计划中多次被提及，比如：确保鼓励汽车制造商在国内建造或重组整车或零部件工厂；投资电池技术但要确保电池生产在国内进行等等。此外，值得说明的是，基建计划中各个领域的具体投资额尚不明晰，只有少数项目提出了明确投资额。由于该计划简介十分「粗糙」，并没有十分细致的支出计划，只在少数项目上提出了投资额，比如：在第一个任期内增加4000亿美元的联邦采购（具体采购计划没有说明）；1000亿美元改善公立学校建筑；执政第一年投入500亿美元修复高速公路、公路和桥梁；投资200亿美元建设农村宽带基础设施，提供600亿资金来扩大农村地区的宽带接入；10年内额外投入100亿美元支持低收入地区的交通项目；400亿美元、为期10年的转型项目基金用于资助重大基建项目等等。计划简介中明确提及投资额度的，零零散散加总，仅有8000多亿美元。2、不仅是基建，计划覆盖八大领域整体来看，拜登的基建计划不仅仅是局限在「基建领域」，覆盖面非常广泛，涵盖了现代化基建、汽车工业发展、清洁电力投资、建筑改造和住房建设、清洁能源投资、可持续农业、社区平等发展和制造业振兴共八大领域（下文是简介，详情参见附录）。第一，构建现代化的基建设施。1）道路修复和建设。执政第一年投入500亿美元用于修复高速公路、道路和桥梁，对边远地区进行交通投资等。2）第二次铁路革命。大力投资高铁，完善客运和货运铁路体系，推动铁路系统电气化，减少柴油排放。3）大力发展公共交通。到2030年，在超过10万人口的城市构建高质量的公共交通系统。在10年内额外投入100亿美元支持低收入地区的交通项目。4）改进机场。为机场改善计划提供双倍资金，为主要机场改造项目提供竞争性赠款，全面实施下一代航空技术系统等。5）大力投资货运基础设施，包括内河航道、货运走廊、货运铁路、中转设施和港口。把BUILD和INFRA交通基建赠款项目赠款从每年18亿提高至35亿；每年为陆军工程兵团增加25亿资金，推动内陆水道的船闸现代化；支持港口基础设施。6）水利基础设施建设。更换老化管道，把联邦对清洁饮用水和水基础设施的投资增加一倍，监测供水系统中铅和其他污染物，追究污染企业的责任。投资水技术研发，号召私人部门创新。7）新基建项目：智能城市建设。每年用10亿美元帮助5个城市试行新的规划战略和智慧城市技术。投资宽带网络。投资200亿美元建设农村宽带基础设施， 600亿资金来扩大农村地区的宽带接入，增加宽带提供商的参与数量等。8）建立转型项目基金。设立一个400亿美元、为期10年的转型项目基金，为庞大复杂的基建项目提供援助。第二，使美国汽车业在本世纪领先全球，加快向低碳和无碳汽车过渡。1）需求方面：恢复电动汽车全额税收抵免，利用联邦采购增加清洁汽车的需求，加速300万辆政府系统汽车的升级换代。设定到2030年所有美国制造的新巴士都实现零排放的目标，将全国50万辆校车转化为零排放汽车。2）鼓励汽车制造商在国内建造或重组整车或零部件工厂。3）五年内在电池和储能技术方面投资50亿美元，同时确保电池生产在国内进行。4）建立一个由50万个公共充电网点组成的全国充电系统，每年额外提供10亿美元资金以确保充电站由经过认证的技术人员安装。5）召集美国能源和交通部协调特别示范项目，向愿意试行新型充电基础设施的市镇和县提供赠款。6）制定燃油经济性标准，减少空气污染。第三，清洁电力投资：2035年实现无碳发电。1）发展清洁电力，到2035年实现无碳发电。2）大力发展电网，推动市场改革，扩大区域电力市场。3）为公用事业和电网运营商建立能源效率和清洁电力标准（ EECES ）；4）升级输电线路以支持更大的区域电力市场，推进大规模储能示范项目。5）将加倍提高对捕获碳、永久封存和利用捕获碳的技术的研究投资和税收优惠。第四，建筑改造，提高建筑能效。1）推动学校现代化。投资1000亿美元改善公立学校建筑，升级全国各地的儿童保育和早期学习设施。2）建筑节能改造。在4年内升级400万栋商业建筑，对200万户家庭进行房屋节能改造。推动建筑行业电气化，加大对低收入房屋节能改造项目和电热泵等关键技术的投资；建造净零碳联邦建筑等。3）2035年美国建筑存量碳足迹减少一半。4）推动建设150万套公共住房，向低收入社区注入更多资金以促进经济适用房的建设和小企业的发展。第五，对清洁能源创新进行历史性投资。1）在第一个任期内增加4000亿美元的联邦采购，其中一个重点是购买电池和电动汽车等关键的清洁能源投入。2）未来4年内专注于清洁能源、清洁交通、清洁工业流程和清洁材料等战略研究领域。3）加强和建设美国关键的清洁能源供应链，解决对稀土矿物的依赖等问题，加快供应链弹性方面的创新。4）大力投资国家实验室、高性能计算能力设施以及其他关键基础设施。第六，投资于可持续农业和环境养护。1）通过民间气候组织号召和动员新一代美国人投入到保护环境和应对气候变化的工作中。2）进行前期投资，以清理以往资源开采对环境造成的破坏和影响。3）维护美国的农场和牧场。为农民向新设备和新方法过渡提供低成本资金，资助精密农业和新作物的研究开发，建立自愿碳农业市场；追求亲工人和亲家庭的农民贸易政策；加强粮食供应的安全性和恢复能力；确保中小型农场的竞争公平等。第七，社区平等和发展。1）每年提供50亿美元，扩大新市场税收抵免并使该计划永久化；2）为社区发展金融机构基金提供双倍资金，支持低收入地区的金融机构。3）设立100亿美元的城市振兴基金，在陷入困境的城市开展创造性的振兴项目。4）资助贫困地区的锚定机构（指医院、学院和大学以及政府行政机构等）。5）全面实施「10-20-30计划（在所有联邦项目中，将10%的资金分配给过去30年有20%或以上的人口生活在贫困线以下的县）」。第八，振兴全国的制造业和中小企业。1）振兴制造业。将制造业扩展伙伴项目的资金提高四倍，为小型制造商在全球竞争中提供技术支持；在每个州发展低碳制造业；利用税收抵免和补贴帮助企业升级设备和流程、投资扩建或新建工厂、部署低碳技术；为更具竞争力或低碳的制造业提供资金等。2）推动中小企业发展。把国家小企业信贷倡议计划延长到2025年，联邦拨款增加至30亿美元；向各州提供50亿美元资金，制定鼓励小企业创业的政策，比如支持从公立大学向私营部门转让技术。（四）拜登基建对美国经济的影响？基建类支出对经济的影响如何评估？可以借鉴过往美国学界和智库对基建效果的评估结果：1）2014年马里兰大学的一项研究表明，公共交通基础设施投资每花费1美元，就会使得GDP增长增加约3美元，在经济衰退期间产生的影响更大。2）根据2014年芝加哥大学的报告，一项830亿美元的基础设施投资计划——大约相当于国内生产总值的0.6%——将在头三年创造170万个就业机会。3）根据全球咨询公司麦肯锡的估计，美国基础设施支出每增加1个百分点的GDP，将为经济增加150万个就业机会。4）经济政策研究所估计，础设施投资的回报率很高。对数十项基础设施研究进行回顾，每支出100美元……从长期来看，将使私营部门的产出分别提高13美元（中位数）和17美元（平均值）。5）据美国国会预算办公室（CBO）对奥巴马ARRA法案的评估，基建类的产出乘数在0.4-2.2之间。可借鉴美国学界和智库对基建效果的评估结果，从整体上大概估算拜登基建计划对美国经济和就业的影响。1）对GDP的影响：拜登基建计划中，确定的基建类支出大约是1.3万亿美元，投资周期10年，平均每年的支出约为1300亿，约占2019年GDP比重的0.6%，按照产出乘数0.4-3来估计（结合马里兰大学和CBO估计的产出乘数），未来十年，每年对GDP的额外产出贡献约为520亿~3900亿美元，约为2019年名义GDP的0.2%~1.8%。2）对就业的影响：根据芝加哥大学的就业影响估计，1.3万亿的基建类支出未来十年将每年创造逾200万个工作岗位。根据麦肯锡的评估结果估计，未来十年将带动约1000万的就业。拜登团队在计划简介中的就业影响估计是带动超1000万个就业。综合来看，拜登的重建计划在未来十年或将给美国创造超千万的就业岗位。3）美国银行在一份报告中估计，拜登的2万亿美元的基础设施计划在短期内可能会带来2％至9％的GDP增长，从长期来看会使GDP「显著增长」，并且美国GDP增长每增加1％，将带来标准普尔500公司收益的3％到4％左右的增长[4]。二、拜登加税：怎么加？同样的，我们从四个问题来理解拜登加税。第一，拜登是不是确定要加税，加税的目的是什么？第二，加税在美国历史上有先例吗？第三，拜登打算怎么加税？第四，加税对美国经济有何影响？（一）拜登确定要加税？目的何在？拜登是否要加税？加税应该是肯定的。第一，拜登在竞选时曾明确提出加税计划，这是其竞选口号之一，大概率将履行。第二，在拜登的竞选网站上写到，基础设施领域多达1.3万亿美元的投资，将全部通过「确保超级富豪和企业支付他们公平的（税收）份额」来筹集资金。第三，财政部长耶伦曾表示，下一个法案（指拜登的重建计划法案）的一部分支出将由加税来筹集。拜登加税的三个目的：一是为重建计划筹集资金，二是兑现竞选承诺，三是通过税制调整以促进税收公平，通过二次分配来调节贫富差距。从税制调整中可以很明显地看出，富人和高收入阶层、企业的税负压力增大，而中低收入者的税收抵免则明显扩大。（二）加税有先例可寻吗？在1950年以前，美国个人所得税和企业所得税最高边际税率均呈逐渐上升趋势，这一时期，加税的主要原因是为战争筹资，在一战和二战期间，个人所得税和企业所得税最高边际税率大幅上升。从1950年代以来，美国个人所得税和企业所得税最高边际税率整体呈逐渐下降趋势，减税时期多，加税时期极少。1950年以来，主要的减税有五次： 1963年肯尼迪减税、1979年卡特减税、1980年代里根减税、2001年小布什减税、2017年特朗普减税。而1950年以来的加税，最明显的有三次。第一次是1960年代后期，加税的主要原因还是战争因素，从1968年-1970年，为了应对越南战争的开支，美国征收了「越战附加税」，1970年以后取消。第二次是1990年老布什为了应对国防和医疗等社会公共开支大幅上升带来赤字增加，在1990年通过《1990年监察预算调解法案》，将个人所得税最高边际税率从28%提高至31%。第三次是1993年克林顿加税，这一次也是1950年以来美国最大范围和规模的一次加税。为了削减财政赤字，克林顿在1993年提出增税计划，将个人所得税最高边际税率从31%提高至39.6%，将企业所得税最高边际税率从34%提高至35%。值得注意的是，2012年个人所得税最高边际税率从35%上升至39.6%并非是加税导致，而是小布什减税期限已满，税率自动回到减税前的水平。（三）拜登打算如何加税？拜登加税主要是在两个方面，一是高收入群体的工资税、所得税、资本利得税和遗产税等，二是重新上调企业所得税率，对一些企业税进行调整。从下述条款的具体细则中可以看出，拜登的加税对象非常明确，就是富有群体和企业，对社会中下阶层的税收优惠和抵免反而提高了。1、个体税制调整：富人税负增加，中下阶层减负1）对年收入超过40万美元的人征收12.4%的社会保障工资税（Social Security payroll tax），由雇主和雇员平分。在先行的税法下，年收入高于13.77万的个人不需要支付社会保障工资税。2）将应税收入超过40万美元的最高个人所得税税率从现行法律规定的37%上调至39.6%；对于年收入超过40万美元的群体，即便有分项扣除的税收优惠，其个人所得税率也不得低于28%；恢复对应税收入超过40万美元的项目扣除额的「皮斯限制」；对应税收入超过40万美元的群体，逐步取消符合资格的业务收入扣除额。3）按39.6%的普通所得税税率对100万美元以上的长期资本利得和合格股息收入征税，消除资本利得税的累进性。4）税收抵免：扩大65岁以上无子女员工的劳动所得税抵免，为个人提供可再生能源相关的税收抵免；将儿童和受扶养人税收抵免(CDCTC)从最高3000美元扩大到8000美元(多个受扶养人为16000美元)，并将最高偿还率从35%提高到50%。在2021年，将17岁及以下儿童的儿童税收抵免(CTC)从最高2000美元提高到3000美元，同时为6岁以下儿童提供600美元的额外抵免，CTC将全额退还。值得一提的是，关于CTC的措施已在1.9万亿救济计划中实施；重建首次购房者的税收抵免政策，为首次购房者提供1.5万美元的税收抵免。5）将遗产税和赠与税的税率和免税额恢复到2009年的水平。2017年特朗普税改后，将2018-2025年的遗产和赠与税的免税额从每人500万提高至1000万，税率仍然定在40%。如果回到2009年水平，免税额将从现在的1000万降至350万，税率则从40%提高至45%。6）其他缺乏明确信息的调整项目：通过提供可退还的税收抵免来取代传统的扣除项目，以平衡传统退休账户(如401(k)和个人退休账户)的税收优惠；取消房地产税的某些规定；扩大《平价医疗法案》的保费税收抵免；创建可退还的租户税收抵免并提供每年不超过50亿美元的抵免额度，旨在将租金和水电费保持在租户月收入的30%以下；加大对低收入者住房税收抵免的额度。2、企业税制调整：税负增加，但鼓励制造业回流1）将企业所得税税率从21%提高到28%。2）对账面利润超过1亿美元的公司征收最低税。最低税是一种替代税——企业将支付常规企业所得税或15%最低税中的更高者，仍然允许净经营亏损(NOL)和外国税收抵免。3）将美国公司海外子公司的全球无形资产低税收收入(Global Intangible Low Tax Income)税率从10.5%提高一倍至21%。提议对海外子公司的GILTI进行分国家评估，取消将低于合格企业资产投资(QBAI) 10%的GILTI视为回报豁免的条款。在2017年税改前，美国一般对其公司和居民的全球收入征税，美国公司可以申请推迟对海外子公司的活跃业务收益征税，直到收益作为股息汇回美国。在税改之后，美国豁免了美国公司海外子公司活跃业务的收益，即使这些收益被汇回国内也不会被征税(但仍对外国子公司的被动投资收入征税)。美国国会担心将跨国公司的海外收入完全豁免，可能会加剧其将利润转移到海外低税收司法管辖区的做法，因此对全球无形资产低税收收入制定了10.5%的最低税率，以阻止利润转移。GILTI是指无形资产(如专利、商标和版权)带来的收入。无形资产具有高度的可移动性，该税率试图阻止美国公司将无形资产转移到海外。4）税收抵免：建立制造业税收抵免；扩大新市场的税收抵免并使之永久化；为采用工作场所退休储蓄计划的小企业提供税收抵免；扩大与可再生能源相关的税收抵免，包括碳捕获、使用和储存的税收抵免以及住宅能效的税收抵免，并恢复能源投资税收抵免(ITC)和电动汽车税收抵免，结束对化石燃料的税收补贴。5）其他缺乏明确信息的调整项目：对那些「为了向美国市场销售产品或提供服务而将制造业和服务业工作岗位转移到国外」的企业征收10%的附加税。为恢复生产、振兴已关闭或即将关闭的设施、重组设施以促进制造业就业或扩大制造业工资规模的活动，提供优先的10%的「美国制造」税收抵免。（四）拜登加税对美国经济的影响加税对经济的影响较为复杂，主要借鉴海外智库的评估来大致了解拜登加税对美国经济的影响。就经济增长而言，税务基金会和税收政策中心均预估加税会对未来十年对经济增长造成负面影响，会使未来十年GDP下降1.62%~3.4%。就税收收入而言，税务基金会认为加税在未来十年可以筹集约2.8万亿税收收入，而税收政策中心估计加税将使未来十年联邦收入减少1610亿美元（约占这10年总收入的8%）。此外，税务基金会预计加税将使工资水平下降、就业岗位流失，使收入差距缩小但整体居民税后收入下降。1、税务基金会（Tax Foundation）的估计1）财政收入的影响：拜登税收计划将在未来10年筹集约2.8万亿美元。2）经济的影响：在未来十年，使GDP总共减少1.62%，GNP总共下降1.83%，使资本存量减少3.75%，使长期平均工资水平下降1.15%，损失54.2万个工作岗位。3）收入分配的影响：拜登的税收计划到2030年将导致最富有的1%纳税人的税后收入减少7.7%左右，所有纳税人的税后收入平均下降1.9%。2、税收政策中心（TaxPolicy Center）1）经济影响：使未来十年美国GDP总共下降3.4%，对GDP的影响将在2040年转正，在2040年以后的年份，正向影响将逐渐增大。2）收入影响：将使2021年至2030年的美国联邦收入减少1610亿美元（约占这10年总收入的8%），2031年至2040年减少900亿美元。到2040年，税收计划对联邦收入的影响将转正，其正效应在2040年的随后年份将逐渐增加。三、关键时间点：正式的重建计划可能会在什么时候推出？目前，拜登团队还没有公布正式的计划方案和投资细则，后续要追踪拜登的重建计划，有两个关键的时间节点值得关注：第一个关键时间点：今年4-5月。拜登在今年1月14日首次提出「美国救济计划」时曾明确说道：「下个月，在我第一次出席国会联席会议时，我将提出我的‘重建更好未来的复苏计划’[5]。」正常情况下，拜登的重建计划本应该在2月份就正式提出，但疫情才是第一要务，2月11日众议院议长佩洛西表示，「在我们通过新冠疫情纾困法案之前，我们不会做任何事情。」由于美国救济计划在国会遭遇阻力，直到3月14日才正式落地，因此拜登至今还未出席国会联席会议，重建计划也还没有正式提出。国会联席会议什么时候召开呢？这是关键。3月24日白宫发言人普萨基表示，「目前还没有确定时间…我们当然仍有兴趣承诺进行一次联合会议。我们会与他们保持联系，但我不知道具体的时间。」历史上，总统出席国会联席会议并发表「在国会联席会议上的演讲」的时间最晚不超过2月份。现在海外预期拜登将在4月正式出席国会联席会议[6]，那么届时他将向议员介绍重建计划。另据高盛预计，白宫或在5月向国会递交详细的预算方案。再根据民主党高层的表态，希望基建方案能在5月通过参众两院下属的委员会，因此我们预计，重建计划的总规模和具体的项目细节大概率将于4-5月公布。第二个关键时间点：10月。拜登的重建计划的推出实施，需要经过美国国会的同意。目前民主党掌控众议院，可以在众议院轻松通过法案。但是民主党在参议院只是略占优势，仅比共和党多1票的投票权，无法绕过参议院的「阻挠议事」（需要60票）。拜登的重建计划要想在参议院获得通过，只有两个办法。一是在保证所有民主党参议员同意的前提下，至少再争取10位共和党参议员的支持。二是再次启用预算和解程序，和1.9万亿美国救济计划走的国会流程一致，只需要51票即可通过参议院。就目前共和党参议院高层的表态来看，第一种办法的可行性非常低，参议院共和党领导麦康奈尔本周一表示：「我们听说，未来几个月可能会提出所谓的基础设施法案，实际上可能是暗藏大幅加税和其他有损就业的左翼政策的特洛伊木马。」拜登的重建计划要想落地，最大的可能是启动预算和解程序。美国财政年度是每年10月至次年9月，预算和解程序一个财年一般只能使用一次（本来收入、支出和赤字三个领域每财年各有一次启动预算和解程序的机会，但是法案一般不只涉及一个领域，基本上三个领域都会覆盖，历史经验看，预算和解程序也是一个财年最多一次），今年1.9万亿美国救济计划已经使用过2021财年的「额度」，若要再次启用预算和解程序，只能等到2022财年开始。10月份是第二个关键的时间点，第一，到10月份，民主党可以再次启用「预算和解程序」。第二，从民主党议员的表态来看，他们希望能快速通过重建计划法案，比如众议院议长佩洛西希望国会快速采取行动制定变革性的基建计划。四附录：拜登重建计划细则内容","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{".DJI":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":2285,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":353942716,"gmtCreate":1616458135935,"gmtModify":1704794288130,"author":{"id":"3557305548001793","authorId":"3557305548001793","name":"Ikhas","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a0fd7b69b3c00ecf9cc780ede0cf5943","crmLevel":8,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3557305548001793","idStr":"3557305548001793"},"themes":[],"title":"","htmlText":"demystification","listText":"demystification","text":"demystification","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/353942716","repostId":"2120923199","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2120923199","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1616138696,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2120923199?lang=en_US&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-03-19

The value of gold is rising, and its volatility is the most. Sometimes the most volatile assets get the best returns, and sometimes they don't.

A related criticism is that total supply in Bitcoin is not fixed, as Bitcoin can be subdivided into small increments.

Of course we are the same.</p><p><strong>Central bank digital currencies (CBDCs) and corporate currencies set to crush Bitcoin</strong></p><p>Granted, many central banks have announced CBDC plans, but barely beyond the proof-of-concept stage.

and Mail）最近的一则新闻说： “比特币的麻烦：为什么加密热潮不能持续下去” 。可以肯定的是，比特币可能会两极分化。比特币顽固派人士声称，这种加密货币将很快取代黄金，所有政府支持的货币和信用卡，并使银行系统瘫痪。除了理性的繁荣，这种可能性至少在短期内不会发生。另一方面，媒体评论家常常严重地误以为比特币不外乎是一种投机工具、环境灾难、泡沫或更糟。这使得投资者对事实进行诚实、清醒的分析几乎是不可能的，这是可耻的。作为一种新的资产类别，投资者必须在比特币上做好功课，并在加入之前仔细考虑风险。因此，本着这种精神，现在是时候对一些常见的比特币误解进行事实检查了：比特币仅用于投机这是不准确的。每天比特币网络结算大约价值100亿美元的交易。比特币的平均每日交易量为 305,000笔，与美联储金融机构之间电汇结算系统Fedwire的每日550,000笔的数量相差不远。 其中一些交易代表投资购买，其中一些交易可能是为了投机，但其他许多交易则是定期使用的，例如汇款，尤其是在发展中国家。例如，根据世界经济论坛的数据，尼日利亚32％的人拥有用于点对点支付的比特币。在俄罗斯和白俄罗斯这样的政权中，比特币有时是资助反腐败努力和抗议活动的唯一途径 。这很有用。比特币浪费能源比特币“矿工”利用强大的计算能力来保护比特币网络。这些计算机消耗大量能量：据估计，它的使用量相当于智利的国家。这导致了能源浪费。比特币网络可确保价值1万亿美元的价值，并为数百万人提供服务，其中包括许多无法使用传统支付网络的人。矿工们经常居住在电力丰富而又自由的地方，这通常意味着可再生的水力发电或地热能源。如今 ，至少39％的比特币采矿业由可再生能源提供动力，并且这一份额正在迅速增长。比特币的碳足迹无疑是一个需要解决的问题。但这并不意味着比特币是一个坏主意。相反，碳足迹是要克服的挑战，就像所有有用实体一样。比特币波动太大，无法存储价值诚然，比特币比政府债券更容易波动，但从本质上来说并不是坏事。1970年代，随着黄金从货币体系中正式脱离，其价格极度动荡， 在十年中上涨了10倍，然后下降了60％，并在数十年后趋于平缓。黄金的价值不断上涨，其波动性最大。有时最具波动性的资产可获得最佳回报，有时却没有。如今的比特币处于“价格发现”阶段，类似于1970年代的黄金，在那里大起大落很常见。尽管如此，由于其波动性，比特币可能并不适合所有投资者。政府将杀死比特币的确，在尼日利亚，俄罗斯和白俄罗斯，比特币受到了政府的冷漠对待。但是在美国，加拿大和大多数西方国家，情况有所不同。例如，美国最高证券监管机构 在麻省理工学院教授了有关加密货币的课程；监管商品市场的商品期货交易委员会是监管比特币衍生品的全球创新者；美国货币审计署最近批准银行为比特币提供托管服务。中央银行最关心的是金融稳定。没有什么比对一些武断的、毫无根据的镇压更能破坏价值1万亿美元的比特币市场了。其他加密货币稀释了比特币自2009年比特币上线以来，市场已经推出了数千种新的加密货币， 但对比特币的价格没有明显影响。这是有道理的。当我们从地球上开采更多锡时，会影响金的供应吗？不，因为它们是不相关的资产。一个相关的批评是，比特币的总供应量是不固定的，因为比特币可细分为微小的增量。要了解为什么这是错误的，请用比萨饼代替比特币：如果我们将一个比萨饼切成十亿块，我们是否有更多的比萨饼，更少的比萨饼或相同数量的比萨饼？我们当然是一样的。中央银行数字货币（CBDC）和公司货币将压垮比特币诚然，许多中央银行已经宣布了CBDC计划，但几乎没有超出概念验证阶段。唯一的例外是在中国，中国政府热衷于推出自己的数字货币， 以更好地监督该国的支出并将其覆盖范围扩展到其境外。企业数字货币（也称为稳定币）也不会威胁到比特币。实际上，他们可能会做相反的事情。 自2017年以来，所有流通中的稳定币的价值已飙升40倍，但随着越来越多的用户逐渐适应数字资产，比特币继续蓬勃发展。“轻松赚钱”正在将比特币推入泡沫领域的确，所有风险资产都已从加拿大银行、美联储和其他地方的宽松利率政策中受益。随着债券收益率的提高以及资金流向对经济更敏感的银行、能源公司等股票的转移，一些低利率的受益者（包括Shopify、Zoom和Peloton等高科技行业的高收益者）发生了超过30％以上的波动。比特币可能会在某个时候效仿，当然，明智的做法是，投资者应谨慎对待任何价值在不到一年的时间内像比特币一样增长超过500％的投资。也就是说，值得注意的是，比特币可能会从紧缩政策中受益，如果它预示着通货膨胀正在加速，因为许多投资者将比特币视为对冲消费者价格上涨的避险工具。我认为，比特币无疑是创新的催化剂，并可能成为我们全球金融体系未来的关键角色。几千年来，从贝壳壳到黏土片再到贵金属、钞票和银行结余，货币都在向未来迈出了一步。金钱正在变得数字化。购买比特币可能提供一种获得该未来机会的方法。但是，比特币不能保证成功，并且可能不是每个人的合适投资，它与任何新范例一样存在风险和不确定性。要了解比特币，请从事实开始。本文来自《财富》杂志，并经链捕手翻译。","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"159945":1,"EBON":1,"CAN":1,"XBTmain":1,"BTCmain":1}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":2023,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":337008598,"gmtCreate":1611020768614,"gmtModify":1704986703243,"author":{"id":"3557305548001793","authorId":"3557305548001793","name":"Ikhas","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a0fd7b69b3c00ecf9cc780ede0cf5943","crmLevel":8,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3557305548001793","idStr":"3557305548001793"},"themes":[],"title":"","htmlText":"666","listText":"666","text":"666","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/337008598","repostId":"332320921","repostType":1,"repost":{"id":332320921,"gmtCreate":1610340151463,"gmtModify":1704982982432,"author":{"id":"3514329116425907","authorId":"3514329116425907","name":"小虎AV","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/91101bd3142b32495c3131036d5f8afa","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3514329116425907","idStr":"3514329116425907"},"themes":[],"title":"信息量極大！新世界首富馬斯克最新訪談（66分鐘完整原版英字）","htmlText":"\n

market?","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1119023218","media":"首席经济学家论坛","summary":"核心观点北京时间2021年1月7日，一场震惊世界的骚乱之后，特朗普的支持者们终于无奈地散去。在参、众两院联席会议上，美国副总统彭斯正式宣布拜登当选美国下一任总统。此前，美国参议院选举落幕，民主党实际掌","content":"<p><b>Core Points</b></p><p>On January 7, 2021, Beijing time, after a riot that shocked the world, Trump's supporters finally dispersed helplessly. At a joint meeting of the Senate and House of Representatives, U.S. Vice President Pence officially announced that Biden had been elected as the next president of the United States. Previously, the U.S. Senate elections had concluded, and the Democratic Party effectively controlled the Senate.<b>With this, Biden's Democratic Party simultaneously controls both the Senate and the House of Representatives, welcoming a \"blue wave\".</b></p><p>1. What does the \"blue wave\" mean for the Biden administration?</p><p>First, Biden's infrastructure plan will move from \"traditional infrastructure\" (highways, bridges, transportation, etc.) to \"new infrastructure\" (communications, electricity, clean energy, etc.). Second, the theme of \"climate change\" will be more prominent in Biden's infrastructure, foreign policies, and other areas, and may become the beginning of his achievements and the main theme of his subsequent administration. Third, the Biden administration can spend more money. The Biden administration expects that two-thirds of fiscal spending will come from increased tax revenue, while the other third will be the deficit. This objectively requires the Federal Reserve to play a certain matching role.</p><p>2. What does the \"blue wave\" mean for the capital market?</p><p>US Stocks – Overall Positive, Style Turning \"Blue\": Increased fiscal spending, continued monetary easing, and strengthened expectations for US economic recovery with the rollout of vaccines will partially offset the negative impact of the Biden administration's corporate tax increases on corporate profits. In September and October 2020, US stocks experienced a \"blue storm\" amid expectations of Biden's election, with cyclical stocks and small and mid-cap stocks performing well. Growth sectors such as technology may be affected again in the future, while industries such as environmental protection, new energy, and infrastructure may perform well. In terms of rhythm, the \"wave\" may not be as rapid as the previous \"storm,\" but it is likely to last longer. With monetary easing continuing for a period of time, US stocks are expected to continue their good upward trend, with overall US stocks outperforming US Treasury bonds.</p><p>US Treasury bonds are getting worse and steeper: The Biden administration is placing greater emphasis on epidemic prevention, and fiscal support for the economy is more precise and conducive to economic recovery. Large-scale fiscal policy is inextricably linked to maintaining an accommodative monetary environment, reinforcing the logic that inflation levels are rising and lasting longer under the Federal Reserve's new average inflation target. As the US economic recovery strengthens after the pandemic, the Federal Reserve may gradually reduce its quantitative easing, thereby widening the spread between long-term and short-term US Treasury yields. Gold prices may see the achievement of herd immunity in the United States as a watershed moment. Prior to this, rising inflation expectations and a slower rise in US Treasury yields will keep real interest rates negative, providing support for gold prices. Following this, the Federal Reserve may gradually reduce its quantitative easing, accelerating the rise in US Treasury yields, leading to a rebound in real interest rates and potentially causing gold prices to lose support.</p><p>US Dollar – Short-term strengthening weakening logic: The \"blue wave\" means that a larger-scale fiscal stimulus plan supported by the Democratic Party is expected to be implemented, especially the fiscal plan to support the fight against the pandemic is expected to be the first to be increased. In recent years, with the continuous expansion of the US debt ratio, coupled with the significant increase in fiscal stimulus caused by the pandemic this year, concerns about the huge US debt have begun to put increasing pressure on the US dollar. Policy and pandemic uncertainties have decreased, and the US dollar, which has safe-haven properties, has also shown a weakening trend. Taxing or strengthening regulations on technology, capital, and the wealthy places greater emphasis on the fairness of the U.S. economy and does not support the dollar as strongly as Trump's \"America First\" philosophy. It will also hinder international capital inflows. However, in the medium term, the \"blue wave\" is conducive to enhancing the strength of the US post-pandemic economic recovery, and is expected to coincide with the implementation of infrastructure plans on top of the inventory cycle and real estate cycle. Therefore, if the United States successfully achieves herd immunity by the middle of this year, the US economy's outstanding performance globally may lead to a temporary strengthening of the US dollar.</p><p>At the beginning of 2021, a highly anticipated and unprecedentedly important U.S. Senate election concluded. Against the backdrop of a 48:50 score between Democrats and Republicans, Georgia's only two senators were elected on January 6, U.S. time—they are Democrats! Since the legal president of the Senate (Vice President Harris) has a tie vote, the 50:50 party ratio means that the Democrats will actually control the Senate, which also means that the Biden administration is welcoming a \"blue wave\"!</p><p>\"Blue wave\" refers to Democrats simultaneously controlling the presidency and both houses of Congress, a joke commonly used in American politics and the press. As president-elect, Biden's Democratic Party controls both the Senate and House of Representatives, making the implementation of his new policies smoother. This means that the path to economic recovery in the United States in 2021 may be smoother, and the process of rising inflation will also be smoother.</p><p>What does the \"blue wave\" mean for the Biden administration?</p><p>The marginal impact of the \"blue wave\" is mainly reflected in the differences in the governing philosophies of the two parties. The governing philosophies of the Democratic and Republican parties in the United States have always had distinct partisan characteristics: the Democratic Party belongs to the \"progressive faction\" and its style leans towards Keynesian \"big government,\" namely, supporting tax increases, expanding fiscal spending, increasing social security, playing a role in redistribution, being lenient towards immigrants, and embracing multiculturalism. The Republican Party, on the other hand, belongs to the \"conservative\" faction, with a style that leans towards economic liberalism and \"small government,\" namely, supporting tax cuts, reducing government intervention, emphasizing freedom and efficiency, and opposing unnecessary increases in social security and debt burdens.</p><p>What are the characteristics of Biden's \"blue wave\"? On the one hand, it should be noted that Biden's current administrative platform is more \"progressive\" than that of ordinary Democrats (and Biden himself during the Obama era), mainly manifested in reduced caution about the deficit, large-scale tax increases, large-scale fiscal and infrastructure plans, vigorous implementation of redistribution policies, and even a \"big government\" demeanor in epidemic prevention policies (Chart 1). This has led the market to have some reservations about the extent to which his campaign promises have been fulfilled. On the other hand, it is necessary to understand that politicians from both parties currently have a consensus on some issues, such as supporting infrastructure (Trump previously had a $2 trillion infrastructure plan but has not yet been implemented) and having hardline attitudes towards trade (both pay attention to the issue of \"unfair trade\"). In these areas, the \"blue wave\" is unlikely to \"make waves\".</p><p>Specifically, in Biden's key areas, the marginal impact of the \"blue wave\" will be mainly reflected in:</p><p>1) Moving from \"traditional infrastructure\" to \"new infrastructure\". On infrastructure, both parties have reached a consensus on improvements, but the Democrats may be more aggressive in terms of efforts. Structurally, the Republican Party focuses more on traditional infrastructure (highways, bridges, transportation, etc.), while the Democratic Party's plan includes more clean energy projects (such as the internet, communications, electric buses, charging stations, sewage treatment, etc.). This part, also known as \"resilient infrastructure,\" is the part that is likely to be opposed by Republicans. The Democratic-led House of Representatives passed a $1.5 trillion infrastructure plan in July 2020, but it failed to pass the Republican-led Senate, which has since reappeared in the Senate with a high probability of passage.</p><p>2) The theme of \"climate change\" will become more prominent in many fields such as infrastructure and diplomacy. The Democratic Party values climate change and is closely linked to it and infrastructure projects; The Republican Party is not very concerned about climate change. The Republican-led Senate only passed a bill that included a climate heading ($287 billion) in July 2019, which shows that it paid far less attention to climate issues than the Democratic-led House of Representatives at the time. Moreover, it is quite certain that Republicans oppose taxes such as gasoline taxes and support continued production of traditional energy sources. Therefore, before the \"blue wave,\" the market expected that Republican power might hinder the continuity of the Democratic Party's entire clean energy project. In addition, \"climate change\" will also become Biden's \"diplomatic card\" (returning to the climate agreement), and may become the beginning of his achievements and the main theme of his subsequent administration.</p><p>3) Spend more money, whether through \"robbing the rich to help the poor\" or \"monetary easing\". The issue of \"who will pay for it\" has always been a point of contention between Democrats and Republicans in both houses of Congress. This issue is not only related to fiscal policy, but will also affect a series of areas related to government spending, such as infrastructure, healthcare, and education. Its essence reflects the differences between the two parties regarding \"big and small governments\". Democrats prefer to use a policy combination of \"fiscal deficit + tax increases on the wealthy and corporations\" to solve the government's financial problems, while Republicans are relatively conservative about deficits and do not support tax increases. With the implementation of the $900 billion fiscal stimulus plan, the fulfillment of Biden's promise of $2.7 trillion in fiscal spending during his administration is even more anticipated than before. The Biden administration projects that two-thirds of fiscal spending will come from increased tax revenue, while the other one-third will be the deficit, which objectively requires the Federal Reserve to play a certain matching role.</p><p>\"Blue Wave\" and the Prospect of Major Asset Classes</p><p><b>US stocks – overall positive, style trending \"blue\"</b></p><p>From a fundamental perspective, the high returns of US stocks in 2017-2018 were largely attributed to Trump's tax cuts, and Biden will partially reverse the tax cuts after taking office, which is a negative factor for US stocks. However, Democrats may offset the negative impact of tax policy changes to some extent by increasing fiscal spending. Now, the \"blue wave\" is about to resurface, and with the advent of the COVID-19 vaccine and increased expectations for economic recovery, US stocks are expected to continue their good performance.</p><p>In terms of style, we noticed that in September and October 2020, US stocks had already experienced a \"blue storm\" under the expectation of Biden's election. Cyclical stocks were catching up, and the attention paid to small and mid-cap stocks also increased significantly. However, after Biden's victory, the market believed that the Republicans had a high probability of controlling the Senate, and subsequently believed that Biden's \"crackdown\" on the technology industry would be constrained, downgrading the \"blue storm\" to a \"blue ripple\". In the near future, the \"blue\" performance of US stocks will intensify, meaning that growth sectors such as technology will be affected again, while industries such as environmental protection, new energy, and infrastructure may perform well amid the Democratic Party's policy dividends. In terms of rhythm, the \"wave\" may not be as rapid as the previous \"storm,\" but it is likely to last longer. With monetary easing continuing for a period of time, US stocks are expected to continue their good upward trend, with overall US stocks outperforming US Treasury bonds.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/06fbf1e01e3521d84eb6514f5311800c\" tg-width=\"778\" tg-height=\"393\"><b>US Treasury bonds – even more bearish and steeper</b></p><p>The Biden administration has strengthened its expectations for rising US economic growth and inflation: 1) The Biden administration is paying more attention to epidemic prevention and is also very supportive of vaccines. If the US epidemic is effectively controlled, the environment for US economic recovery will be better. 2) The Biden administration has a larger fiscal scale and more precise support for the economy; 3) Large-scale fiscal policy is inseparable from maintaining a loose monetary environment. Under the Federal Reserve's new average target inflation system, inflation levels close to 2% (or even higher than 2%) will be allowed for a period of time. The blue wave indirectly reinforces the logic that inflation levels will rise and last for a longer period of time. Furthermore, as the US economic recovery strengthens after the pandemic, the necessity for the Federal Reserve to implement yield curve control (YCC) will decrease, thereby maintaining a certain yield spread between the long and short sides of US Treasury bonds. Therefore, the \"blue wave\" may further boost future US Treasury yields and steepen the curve.</p><p>Incidentally, gold prices may see the achievement of herd immunity in the United States as a watershed moment. Prior to this, rising inflation expectations and a slower rise in US Treasury yields will keep real interest rates negative, providing support for gold prices. Following this, the Federal Reserve may gradually reduce its quantitative easing, accelerating the rise in US Treasury yields, leading to a rebound in real interest rates and potentially causing gold prices to lose support.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ff48979cbd245ed77305ee57e5fa053f\" tg-width=\"833\" tg-height=\"847\">In the short and long term, the \"blue wave\" reinforces the logic of the dollar's weakening: 1) The \"blue wave\" means that a larger-scale fiscal stimulus plan supported by the Democratic Party is expected to be implemented, especially the fiscal plan to support the fight against the epidemic is expected to be increased first. The pressure of the fiscal deficit will force monetary policy to be more loose, which will cause the currency to depreciate against domestic goods on the one hand, and expand purchases of foreign goods on the other hand, which will also lead to a current account deficit, thus putting downward pressure on the US dollar. According to the fiscal spending plan proposed by Biden during his campaign, the fiscal deficit ratio will rise further over the next 10 years, and the debt ratio will also climb further. In recent years, with the continuous expansion of the US debt ratio, coupled with the significant increase in fiscal stimulus caused by the pandemic this year, concerns about the huge US debt have begun to put increasing pressure on the US dollar. 2) The “blue wave” itself means that the uncertainty of the Biden administration’s policies has decreased (the possibility of intervention by Republican forces), and the Democratic Party’s epidemic prevention policies are stronger and the prospects for epidemic control are clearer. The uncertainty caused by the epidemic will also decrease. When the risks weaken, the dollar, which has safe-haven attributes, also tends to weaken. 3) Biden's administrative philosophy includes taxing or strengthening regulations on technology, capital, and the wealthy, and places greater emphasis on the fairness of the US economy.

At a joint meeting of the Senate and House of Representatives, U.S. Vice President Pence officially announced that Biden had been elected as the next president of the United States. Previously, the U.S. Senate elections had concluded, and the Democratic Party effectively controlled the Senate.<b>With this, Biden's Democratic Party simultaneously controls both the Senate and the House of Representatives, welcoming a \"blue wave\".</b></p><p>1. What does the \"blue wave\" mean for the Biden administration?</p><p>First, Biden's infrastructure plan will move from \"traditional infrastructure\" (highways, bridges, transportation, etc.) to \"new infrastructure\" (communications, electricity, clean energy, etc.). Second, the theme of \"climate change\" will be more prominent in Biden's infrastructure, foreign policies, and other areas, and may become the beginning of his achievements and the main theme of his subsequent administration. Third, the Biden administration can spend more money. The Biden administration expects that two-thirds of fiscal spending will come from increased tax revenue, while the other third will be the deficit. This objectively requires the Federal Reserve to play a certain matching role.</p><p>2. What does the \"blue wave\" mean for the capital market?</p><p>US Stocks – Overall Positive, Style Turning \"Blue\": Increased fiscal spending, continued monetary easing, and strengthened expectations for US economic recovery with the rollout of vaccines will partially offset the negative impact of the Biden administration's corporate tax increases on corporate profits. In September and October 2020, US stocks experienced a \"blue storm\" amid expectations of Biden's election, with cyclical stocks and small and mid-cap stocks performing well. Growth sectors such as technology may be affected again in the future, while industries such as environmental protection, new energy, and infrastructure may perform well. In terms of rhythm, the \"wave\" may not be as rapid as the previous \"storm,\" but it is likely to last longer. With monetary easing continuing for a period of time, US stocks are expected to continue their good upward trend, with overall US stocks outperforming US Treasury bonds.</p><p>US Treasury bonds are getting worse and steeper: The Biden administration is placing greater emphasis on epidemic prevention, and fiscal support for the economy is more precise and conducive to economic recovery. Large-scale fiscal policy is inextricably linked to maintaining an accommodative monetary environment, reinforcing the logic that inflation levels are rising and lasting longer under the Federal Reserve's new average inflation target. As the US economic recovery strengthens after the pandemic, the Federal Reserve may gradually reduce its quantitative easing, thereby widening the spread between long-term and short-term US Treasury yields. Gold prices may see the achievement of herd immunity in the United States as a watershed moment. Prior to this, rising inflation expectations and a slower rise in US Treasury yields will keep real interest rates negative, providing support for gold prices. Following this, the Federal Reserve may gradually reduce its quantitative easing, accelerating the rise in US Treasury yields, leading to a rebound in real interest rates and potentially causing gold prices to lose support.</p><p>US Dollar – Short-term strengthening weakening logic: The \"blue wave\" means that a larger-scale fiscal stimulus plan supported by the Democratic Party is expected to be implemented, especially the fiscal plan to support the fight against the pandemic is expected to be the first to be increased. In recent years, with the continuous expansion of the US debt ratio, coupled with the significant increase in fiscal stimulus caused by the pandemic this year, concerns about the huge US debt have begun to put increasing pressure on the US dollar. Policy and pandemic uncertainties have decreased, and the US dollar, which has safe-haven properties, has also shown a weakening trend. Taxing or strengthening regulations on technology, capital, and the wealthy places greater emphasis on the fairness of the U.S. economy and does not support the dollar as strongly as Trump's \"America First\" philosophy. It will also hinder international capital inflows. However, in the medium term, the \"blue wave\" is conducive to enhancing the strength of the US post-pandemic economic recovery, and is expected to coincide with the implementation of infrastructure plans on top of the inventory cycle and real estate cycle. Therefore, if the United States successfully achieves herd immunity by the middle of this year, the US economy's outstanding performance globally may lead to a temporary strengthening of the US dollar.</p><p>At the beginning of 2021, a highly anticipated and unprecedentedly important U.S. Senate election concluded. Against the backdrop of a 48:50 score between Democrats and Republicans, Georgia's only two senators were elected on January 6, U.S. time—they are Democrats! Since the legal president of the Senate (Vice President Harris) has a tie vote, the 50:50 party ratio means that the Democrats will actually control the Senate, which also means that the Biden administration is welcoming a \"blue wave\"!</p><p>\"Blue wave\" refers to Democrats simultaneously controlling the presidency and both houses of Congress, a joke commonly used in American politics and the press. As president-elect, Biden's Democratic Party controls both the Senate and House of Representatives, making the implementation of his new policies smoother. This means that the path to economic recovery in the United States in 2021 may be smoother, and the process of rising inflation will also be smoother.</p><p>What does the \"blue wave\" mean for the Biden administration?</p><p>The marginal impact of the \"blue wave\" is mainly reflected in the differences in the governing philosophies of the two parties. The governing philosophies of the Democratic and Republican parties in the United States have always had distinct partisan characteristics: the Democratic Party belongs to the \"progressive faction\" and its style leans towards Keynesian \"big government,\" namely, supporting tax increases, expanding fiscal spending, increasing social security, playing a role in redistribution, being lenient towards immigrants, and embracing multiculturalism. The Republican Party, on the other hand, belongs to the \"conservative\" faction, with a style that leans towards economic liberalism and \"small government,\" namely, supporting tax cuts, reducing government intervention, emphasizing freedom and efficiency, and opposing unnecessary increases in social security and debt burdens.</p><p>What are the characteristics of Biden's \"blue wave\"? On the one hand, it should be noted that Biden's current administrative platform is more \"progressive\" than that of ordinary Democrats (and Biden himself during the Obama era), mainly manifested in reduced caution about the deficit, large-scale tax increases, large-scale fiscal and infrastructure plans, vigorous implementation of redistribution policies, and even a \"big government\" demeanor in epidemic prevention policies (Chart 1). This has led the market to have some reservations about the extent to which his campaign promises have been fulfilled. On the other hand, it is necessary to understand that politicians from both parties currently have a consensus on some issues, such as supporting infrastructure (Trump previously had a $2 trillion infrastructure plan but has not yet been implemented) and having hardline attitudes towards trade (both pay attention to the issue of \"unfair trade\"). In these areas, the \"blue wave\" is unlikely to \"make waves\".</p><p>Specifically, in Biden's key areas, the marginal impact of the \"blue wave\" will be mainly reflected in:</p><p>1) Moving from \"traditional infrastructure\" to \"new infrastructure\". On infrastructure, both parties have reached a consensus on improvements, but the Democrats may be more aggressive in terms of efforts. Structurally, the Republican Party focuses more on traditional infrastructure (highways, bridges, transportation, etc.), while the Democratic Party's plan includes more clean energy projects (such as the internet, communications, electric buses, charging stations, sewage treatment, etc.). This part, also known as \"resilient infrastructure,\" is the part that is likely to be opposed by Republicans. The Democratic-led House of Representatives passed a $1.5 trillion infrastructure plan in July 2020, but it failed to pass the Republican-led Senate, which has since reappeared in the Senate with a high probability of passage.</p><p>2) The theme of \"climate change\" will become more prominent in many fields such as infrastructure and diplomacy. The Democratic Party values climate change and is closely linked to it and infrastructure projects; The Republican Party is not very concerned about climate change. The Republican-led Senate only passed a bill that included a climate heading ($287 billion) in July 2019, which shows that it paid far less attention to climate issues than the Democratic-led House of Representatives at the time. Moreover, it is quite certain that Republicans oppose taxes such as gasoline taxes and support continued production of traditional energy sources. Therefore, before the \"blue wave,\" the market expected that Republican power might hinder the continuity of the Democratic Party's entire clean energy project. In addition, \"climate change\" will also become Biden's \"diplomatic card\" (returning to the climate agreement), and may become the beginning of his achievements and the main theme of his subsequent administration.</p><p>3) Spend more money, whether through \"robbing the rich to help the poor\" or \"monetary easing\". The issue of \"who will pay for it\" has always been a point of contention between Democrats and Republicans in both houses of Congress. This issue is not only related to fiscal policy, but will also affect a series of areas related to government spending, such as infrastructure, healthcare, and education. Its essence reflects the differences between the two parties regarding \"big and small governments\". Democrats prefer to use a policy combination of \"fiscal deficit + tax increases on the wealthy and corporations\" to solve the government's financial problems, while Republicans are relatively conservative about deficits and do not support tax increases. With the implementation of the $900 billion fiscal stimulus plan, the fulfillment of Biden's promise of $2.7 trillion in fiscal spending during his administration is even more anticipated than before. The Biden administration projects that two-thirds of fiscal spending will come from increased tax revenue, while the other one-third will be the deficit, which objectively requires the Federal Reserve to play a certain matching role.</p><p>\"Blue Wave\" and the Prospect of Major Asset Classes</p><p><b>US stocks – overall positive, style trending \"blue\"</b></p><p>From a fundamental perspective, the high returns of US stocks in 2017-2018 were largely attributed to Trump's tax cuts, and Biden will partially reverse the tax cuts after taking office, which is a negative factor for US stocks. However, Democrats may offset the negative impact of tax policy changes to some extent by increasing fiscal spending. Now, the \"blue wave\" is about to resurface, and with the advent of the COVID-19 vaccine and increased expectations for economic recovery, US stocks are expected to continue their good performance.</p><p>In terms of style, we noticed that in September and October 2020, US stocks had already experienced a \"blue storm\" under the expectation of Biden's election. Cyclical stocks were catching up, and the attention paid to small and mid-cap stocks also increased significantly. However, after Biden's victory, the market believed that the Republicans had a high probability of controlling the Senate, and subsequently believed that Biden's \"crackdown\" on the technology industry would be constrained, downgrading the \"blue storm\" to a \"blue ripple\". In the near future, the \"blue\" performance of US stocks will intensify, meaning that growth sectors such as technology will be affected again, while industries such as environmental protection, new energy, and infrastructure may perform well amid the Democratic Party's policy dividends. In terms of rhythm, the \"wave\" may not be as rapid as the previous \"storm,\" but it is likely to last longer. With monetary easing continuing for a period of time, US stocks are expected to continue their good upward trend, with overall US stocks outperforming US Treasury bonds.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/06fbf1e01e3521d84eb6514f5311800c\" tg-width=\"778\" tg-height=\"393\"><b>US Treasury bonds – even more bearish and steeper</b></p><p>The Biden administration has strengthened its expectations for rising US economic growth and inflation: 1) The Biden administration is paying more attention to epidemic prevention and is also very supportive of vaccines. If the US epidemic is effectively controlled, the environment for US economic recovery will be better. 2) The Biden administration has a larger fiscal scale and more precise support for the economy; 3) Large-scale fiscal policy is inseparable from maintaining a loose monetary environment. Under the Federal Reserve's new average target inflation system, inflation levels close to 2% (or even higher than 2%) will be allowed for a period of time. The blue wave indirectly reinforces the logic that inflation levels will rise and last for a longer period of time. Furthermore, as the US economic recovery strengthens after the pandemic, the necessity for the Federal Reserve to implement yield curve control (YCC) will decrease, thereby maintaining a certain yield spread between the long and short sides of US Treasury bonds. Therefore, the \"blue wave\" may further boost future US Treasury yields and steepen the curve.</p><p>Incidentally, gold prices may see the achievement of herd immunity in the United States as a watershed moment. Prior to this, rising inflation expectations and a slower rise in US Treasury yields will keep real interest rates negative, providing support for gold prices. Following this, the Federal Reserve may gradually reduce its quantitative easing, accelerating the rise in US Treasury yields, leading to a rebound in real interest rates and potentially causing gold prices to lose support.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ff48979cbd245ed77305ee57e5fa053f\" tg-width=\"833\" tg-height=\"847\">In the short and long term, the \"blue wave\" reinforces the logic of the dollar's weakening: 1) The \"blue wave\" means that a larger-scale fiscal stimulus plan supported by the Democratic Party is expected to be implemented, especially the fiscal plan to support the fight against the epidemic is expected to be increased first. The pressure of the fiscal deficit will force monetary policy to be more loose, which will cause the currency to depreciate against domestic goods on the one hand, and expand purchases of foreign goods on the other hand, which will also lead to a current account deficit, thus putting downward pressure on the US dollar. According to the fiscal spending plan proposed by Biden during his campaign, the fiscal deficit ratio will rise further over the next 10 years, and the debt ratio will also climb further. In recent years, with the continuous expansion of the US debt ratio, coupled with the significant increase in fiscal stimulus caused by the pandemic this year, concerns about the huge US debt have begun to put increasing pressure on the US dollar. 2) The “blue wave” itself means that the uncertainty of the Biden administration’s policies has decreased (the possibility of intervention by Republican forces), and the Democratic Party’s epidemic prevention policies are stronger and the prospects for epidemic control are clearer. The uncertainty caused by the epidemic will also decrease. When the risks weaken, the dollar, which has safe-haven attributes, also tends to weaken. 3) Biden's administrative philosophy includes taxing or strengthening regulations on technology, capital, and the wealthy, and places greater emphasis on the fairness of the US economy. Its support for the dollar is not as strong as Trump's \"America First\" philosophy. It will also hinder international capital inflows.</p><p>However, in the medium term, the \"blue wave\" is conducive to enhancing the strength of the US post-pandemic economic recovery, and is expected to be combined with the implementation of infrastructure plans on top of the inventory cycle and real estate cycle. Therefore, if the US successfully achieves herd immunity by the middle of this year, the US economy's \"unique\" performance in the world may lead to a temporary strengthening of the US dollar.</p>\n<div class=\"bt-text\">\n\n\n<p> source：<a

“蓝色浪潮”对资本市场意味着什么？美股——整体向好，风格向“蓝”：财政支出增加，货币宽松持续，伴随疫苗推广，美国经济修复预期增强，这将部分抵消拜登政府对企业加税对企业盈利的负面影响。2020年9-10月美股在拜登当选预期下已掀起过一阵“蓝色风暴”，周期股、中小盘表现较好；未来科技等成长板块或再受波及，而环保、新能源、基建等行业或有良好表现。节奏上，“浪潮”或没有此前的“风暴”来势迅猛，却很可能更加持久。伴随货币持续一段时间的宽松，预计美股会延续一段不错的上涨，整体上美股较美债更优。美债——更熊更陡：拜登政府更重视防疫，财政对经济的支撑更加精准，更利于经济修复。大规模财政与保持宽松的货币环境密不可分，在美联储新的平均目标通胀制下，加强了通胀水平走高且持续更长时间的逻辑。随着疫后美国经济复苏势头增强，美联储可能逐渐缩减量化宽松，从而扩大美债长短端的利差。黄金价格或以美国实现群体免疫为分水岭，在此之前，通胀预期上行和美债收益率上行较缓，将使实际利率持续为负，对黄金价格构成支撑；在此之后，美联储可能逐渐缩减量化宽松，使得美债收益率加速上行，实际利率随之回升，黄金价格或将失去支撑。美元——短期强化走弱逻辑：“蓝色浪潮”意味着民主党支持的更大规模财政刺激计划有望落地，特别是支持抗疫的财政方案有望率先加码。而近年来随着美国债务率的不断扩大，叠加今年疫情导致财政刺激大幅加码，对美国庞大债务的担忧开始对美元产生愈来愈大的压制。政策和疫情不确定性下降，具有避险属性的美元亦有走弱趋势。对科技、资本和富人的征税或加强监管，更加注重美国经济的公平，对美元的支撑不如特朗普“美国优先”的理念强；也会对国际资本流入造成阻碍。不过中期来看，“蓝色浪潮”下，有利于增强美国疫后经济复苏的强度，有望在库存周期、地产周期之上叠加基建方案的落地。因此，倘若今年年中美国顺利实现群体免疫，美国经济在全球“一枝独秀”的表现有可能带来美元的阶段性走强。2021年开年，一场万众瞩目、空前重要的美国参议员选举落幕，在民主党与共和党48：50的比分背景下，美国时间1月6日佐治亚州唯二的参议员诞生——他们是民主党人！由于参议院法定议长（副总统哈里斯）拥有平票决定权，因此50：50的两党配比即意味着着民主党将实际掌控参议院，这也意味着着拜登政府喜迎“蓝色浪潮”！“蓝色浪潮”指的是民主党人同时控制总统与两院席位，本是美国政界和新闻界惯用的俏皮话。拜登作为当选总统，其所在民主党控制参众两院，其新政推行之路将更顺，意味着2021年美国经济复苏之路或更加顺畅，通胀上行的过程也将更加畅通。“蓝色浪潮”对拜登政府意味着什么？“蓝色浪潮”的边际影响主要体现在两党执政理念的差异部分。美国民主党与共和党的执政理念历来带有鲜明的党派特色：民主党属于“进步派”，风格偏向于凯恩斯主义的“大政府”，即支持加税、扩大财政支出、加大社会保障、发挥再分配作用、宽待移民以及包容多元文化等；共和党则属于“保守派”，风格偏向于经济自由主义的“小政府”，即支持减税、减少政府干预、强调自由与效率、反对不必要的社会保障与债务负担的加剧等。拜登的“蓝色浪潮”有何特点？一方面，需要注意当前拜登的执政纲领比普通民主党人（和奥巴马时期的拜登自己）更加“进步”，主要表现为对赤字的谨慎度降低、拟增税幅度和范围均较大、大规模财政和基建计划、大力落实再分配政策……甚至在防疫政策上也颇有“大政府”风范（图表1）。这一点让市场对于其竞选承诺的落实程度持一定保留态度。另一方面，需要理解当前两党政客在部分问题上是有共识的，比如支持基建（特朗普此前亦有2万亿基建计划但尚未落实）、对贸易的态度都存在强硬部分（都重视“不公平贸易”问题）等。就这些领域，“蓝色浪潮”不太可能“掀起波澜”。具体来看，在拜登的重点领域中，“蓝色浪潮”的边际影响将主要体现在：1）从“传统基建”更迈向“新型基建”。在基建方面，两党都有改善共识，但力度上民主党可能更激进；结构上共和党更侧重传统基建（公路、桥梁、交通运输等），而民主党的计划更多地包括了清洁能源项目（如互联网、通信、电动巴士、充电桩、污水处理等）。这一部分也被称为“有弹性的基础设施”，是大概率会遭到共和党反对的部分。民主党领导的众议院在2020年7月通过了一项1.5万亿美元的基础设施计划，但未被共和党领导的参议院通过，而该计划之后重新出现在参议院且通过的概率较大。2）“气候变化”的主题在基建、外交等多领域都将更加鲜明。民主党重视气候变化，并与之和基建计划紧密联系；共和党对气候变化不太关注，共和党领导的参议院仅在2019年7月通过了包括一个气候标题的法案（2870亿美元），可见其对气候问题的重视程度远远小于当时民主党领导的众议院。而且，比较肯定的是，共和党反对汽油税一类的税收、支持继续生产传统能源，因此“蓝色浪潮”前，市场预期共和党势力可能对民主党整个清洁能源项目的连贯性造成阻碍。此外，“气候变化”亦将成为拜登的“外交牌”（重返气候协定），还可能成为其政绩的开端与之后的执政主线。3）更加大手笔“花钱”，无论是通过“劫富济贫”还是“放水”。“谁来买单”（pay for）问题一直是民主党和共和党在两院的争执点，这一问题不仅关乎财政政策，也将影响基建、医疗、教育等一系列与政府支出相关的领域，其本质体现了两党对“大小政府”的分歧。民主党人更倾向于使用“财政赤字+对富人和企业加税”的政策组合来解决政府财务问题，共和党人对赤字相对保守，也不支持增税。随着9000亿美元财政刺激计划落地，未来拜登关于执政期间2.7 万亿美元财政支出的承诺兑现比之前更值得期待了。拜登政府预计，财政支出中2/3来自增加的税收，那么另外1/3则是赤字，这又客观上需要美联储发挥一定的配和作用。“蓝色浪潮”与大类资产展望美股——整体向好，风格向“蓝”基本面上，2017-2018年美股高收益表现在很大程度上归因于特朗普的减税政策，而拜登上台后将部分逆转减税政策，对美股是一个利空因素。然而，民主党通过增加财政支出，可能会一定程度上抵消税收政策变动的负面影响。如今，“蓝色浪潮”将重新掀起，且伴随着新冠疫苗的问世，经济修复的预期增强，美股预计仍将延续一段不错的表现。风格上，我们注意到2020年9-10月，美股在拜登当选预期下已掀起过一阵“蓝色风暴”，周期股呈迎头赶上态势，中小盘股的关注度也明显提升。不过，拜登胜选后，市场认为共和党控制参议院的概率较高，继而认为拜登对科技行业的“敲打”将受制约，“蓝色风暴”降格成“蓝色涟漪”。未来一段时间，美股的“蓝色”表现将增强，即科技等成长板块再受波及，而环保、新能源、基建等行业可能在民主党政策红利中有良好表现。节奏上，“浪潮”或没有此前的“风暴”来势迅猛，却很可能更加持久。伴随货币持续一段时间的宽松，预计美股会延续一段不错的上涨，整体上美股较美债更优。美债——更熊更陡拜登领导的政府强化美国经济增长和通胀抬升的预期：1）拜登政府对防疫更加重视，对疫苗也很支持，美国疫情若得到有力防控，美国经济复苏环境会更优；2）拜登政府的财政规模更大，对经济的支撑更加精准；3）大规模财政与保持宽松的货币环境密不可分，在美联储新的平均目标通胀制下，一段时间的接近2%（甚至高于2%）的通胀水平将被允许，继而蓝色浪潮间接加强了通胀水平走高且持续更长时间的逻辑。此外，随着疫后美国经济复苏势头增强，美联储实施收益率曲线控制（YCC）的必要性也会有所下降，从而使得美债长短端保持一定利差。因此，“蓝色浪潮”或进一步助推未来的美债收益率上行和曲线趋陡。顺便一提，黄金价格或以美国实现群体免疫为分水岭，在此之前，通胀预期上行和美债收益率上行较缓，将使实际利率持续为负，对黄金价格构成支撑；在此之后，美联储可能逐渐缩减量化宽松，使得美债收益率加速上行，实际利率随之回升，黄金价格或将失去支撑。短期和长期内，“蓝色浪潮”强化美元走弱逻辑：1）“蓝色浪潮”意味着民主党支持的更大规模财政刺激计划有望落地，特别是支持抗疫的财政方案有望率先加码。而财政赤字压力将迫使货币政策更偏宽松，一方面造成货币对国内商品的贬值，另一方面扩大对外商品购买也将导致经常账户赤字，从而构成美元下行的压力。按照拜登竞选过程中提出的财政支出方案，未来10年财政赤字率将上一台阶，债务率也会进一步攀升。而近年来随着美国债务率的不断扩大，叠加今年疫情导致财政刺激大幅加码，对美国庞大债务的担忧开始对美元产生愈来愈大的压制。2）“蓝色浪潮”本身意味着拜登政府政策的不确定性降低（受共和党势力干预的可能性），且民主党防疫政策更有力、疫情控制前景更明朗，因疫情造成的不确定性也会下降，风险减弱时，具有避险属性的美元亦有走弱趋势。3）拜登执政思想包括对科技、资本和富人的征税或加强监管，更加注重美国经济的公平，对美元的支撑不如特朗普“美国优先”的理念强；也会对国际资本流入造成阻碍。不过中期来看，“蓝色浪潮”下有利于增强美国疫后经济复苏的强度，有望在库存周期、地产周期之上叠加基建方案的落地，因此，倘若今年年中美国顺利实现群体免疫，美国经济在全球“一枝独秀”的表现可能带来美元的阶段性走强。","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{".DJI":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":2047,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":336318079,"gmtCreate":1610026698491,"gmtModify":1704981604628,"author":{"id":"3557305548001793","authorId":"3557305548001793","name":"Ikhas","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a0fd7b69b3c00ecf9cc780ede0cf5943","crmLevel":8,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3557305548001793","idStr":"3557305548001793"},"themes":[],"title":"","htmlText":"bt","listText":"bt","text":"bt","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/336318079","repostId":"336947928","repostType":1,"repost":{"id":336947928,"gmtCreate":1610018399958,"gmtModify":1704981545937,"author":{"id":"58341441844653","authorId":"58341441844653","name":"孟浩","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/483039f7d05988e78e38a07bc2e5c3db","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"58341441844653","idStr":"58341441844653"},"themes":[],"title":"比特幣大漲，帶來哪些投資機會？","htmlText":"今年比特幣的價格可以用不可思議來形容，昨天連創新高，比特幣突破36000美元之後，僅過了三個多小時後又暫突破37,000美元關口，續創紀錄高位。2020年以來對於比特幣來說是具有里程碑的一年，在這一年比特幣已上漲超300%，市場對於比特幣的認可度增加。本以爲比特幣或許會出現短暫回調的時候，結果，2021年，僅過了6天，就迎來了30%以上的漲幅，這篇文章想跟大家聊聊本輪比特幣上漲的邏輯？比特幣概念股都有哪些？

3）借貸過程，從貨幣端來看，（商業銀行）用這些借貸做抵押，從央行得到新的貨幣，這些貨幣在商業銀行和私營部門之間來回流轉（這就是貨幣乘數）","images":[{"img":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0c47abd3c9574111b4a4c88132b39a1c","width":"879","height":"443"},{"img":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5c9ab431b31941a482178d774d6aa4a0","width":"500","height":"351"},{"img":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/afff67841f804abdbfbc14fc53b2032d","width":"115","height":"18"}],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":2,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/331651581","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":0,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":7,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1515,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":338393020,"gmtCreate":1609824485260,"gmtModify":1704980235749,"author":{"id":"3557305548001793","authorId":"3557305548001793","name":"Ikhas","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a0fd7b69b3c00ecf9cc780ede0cf5943","crmLevel":8,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3557305548001793","idStr":"3557305548001793"},"themes":[],"title":"","htmlText":"sea

According to Tesla China's official website, the starting price of the Model Y Long Range Edition is 339,900 yuan, down from 488,000 yuan, a reduction of 148,100 yuan. The Model Y Performance Edition starts at 369,900 yuan, down from 535,000 yuan, a reduction of 165,100 yuan. In addition, Tesla launched a facelifted domestically produced Model 3. The upgraded Model 3 (standard range version) adds new features such as a power tailgate, heat pump air conditioning, and double-layer soundproof glass compared to the old Model, and the price remains at 249,900 yuan. The long-range Model 3, originally priced at 309,900 yuan, has been removed from shelves, while the high-performance Model 3 has been reduced in price from 419,000 yuan to 339,900 yuan.</p><p>The price drop of more than 100,000 yuan has pushed the Model Y directly into the price range of some of the main models of domestic new energy vehicle manufacturers, which has also brought greater competitive pressure to domestic new energy vehicle companies. Reports indicate that some car owners have even canceled their previously subscribed domestically produced new energy vehicle models overnight and are now turning their attention to Tesla.</p><p><img src=\"https://fid-75186.picgzc.qpic.cn/20210103204309124v235rhls52ohefz\"/><img src=\"https://fid-75186.picgzc.qpic.cn/20210103204312572v2353cmf474o1yu\"/>Source: Tesla official website, Anxin Securities Research Center</p><p>Possible reasons behind the price reduction</p><p><strong>Reason</strong></p><p><strong>Lower costs after continuous innovation?</strong></p><p>Tesla learned from the problem of excessive redundancy in the Model 3's chassis design, simplified the Model Y's body structure, improved the integration of the body, accelerated production speed, and reduced production costs. The Model Y employs extensive casting processes in its low center of gravity, robust structure, and collision protection, while the white body has significantly fewer parts compared to the Model 3. Although the standard range version of the Model Y has not yet been launched due to its range not meeting Musk's standards, the use of lithium iron phosphate batteries, combined with experience in optimizing software and performance to improve range, may help the standard range version of the Model Y break through the 230-mile range limit, achieve market sales, and lower the price of the Model Y. Furthermore, the current domestically produced Model Y uses LG's ternary lithium batteries, which are relatively expensive and will be equipped with them later.<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/300750\">CATL</a>The cost of domestically produced lithium iron phosphate batteries for the Model Y is expected to decrease further.</p><p><img src=\"https://fid-75186.picgzc.qpic.cn/20210103204314011v235700jrq7rogb\"/><strong>Reason</strong></p><p><strong>A virtuous cycle following continuous price reductions?</strong></p><p>Data shows that in the second half of 2019, the standard range version of the Model 3 had its price adjusted five times, with the adjusted final prices being 355,800 yuan/299,100 yuan/303,600 yuan/271,500 yuan/249,900 yuan respectively, making the Model 3 one of the most cost-effective high-end mid-size sedans in China. In addition, the long-range version of the Model 3, launched in May 2020, has also had its price adjusted once. As can be seen, every price reduction for the domestically produced Model 3 leads to an increase in sales. In November 2020, Model 3 sales exceeded 20,000 units, and the cumulative sales of domestically produced Model 3 reached 115,400 units from January to November 2020. Continuous price reductions have driven up sales, rapidly increasing Tesla's presence in China. In addition, Tesla's continuous product innovation and focus on optimizing practicality have attracted more consumers, forming a virtuous cycle.</p><p><img src=\"https://mmbiz.qpic.cn/mmbiz_png/rPn8EmBF38piaJmickz0F39KV1iaicJhSQ9ud7TvDIiaJykTAGDUQ7IOsyDzPA0L9dk59e3PDyQHvfQAcicVLibhSnpUQ/640?wx_fmt=png\"/>We believe Tesla's real confidence in lowering prices</p><p><img src=\"https://fid-75186.picgzc.qpic.cn/20210103204329887v235o9p38wsli2k\"/><img src=\"https://fid-75186.picgzc.qpic.cn/20210103204330865v235pyzyojl3t0p\"/><strong>Software!

In our previous report, we pointed out that Tesla-type \"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AAPL\">Apple</a>\"The cornerstone of a business model is—creating a groundbreaking...\"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/5RE.SI\">smart</a>Automobiles, representatives of emerging domestic car manufacturers<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/LI\">Li Auto</a>Founder Li Xiang once commented: \"Tesla is currently the only smart car in the world.\" Tesla is based on software + hardware (highly integrated electronic and electrical architecture), and uses the vehicle's OTA as a bridge to achieve continuous upgrades and frequent use of new cars. To sum up Tesla's level of intelligence in one sentence, it means truly upgrading the car from a \"feature phone\" to a \"smartphone\". Observing the industry, we can see that traditional automakers are also catching up and replicating Tesla's OTA capabilities for complete vehicles, but we believe that most of them are similar in form but not in spirit. The biggest problem with traditional automakers doing vehicle OTAs is that they are essentially B2B companies and do not directly face users. The \"users\" are the channel dealer network, so they do not hear a lot of voices from the user side. Not to mention the subsequent integration of front-end user feedback with back-end engineering department R&D, which enables continuous iteration and upgrading of vehicles based on vehicle OTA. Compared To the B2B attributes of traditional automakers, Tesla is more like a B2C technology company in terms of corporate culture, organizational structure, and technological level, and is better able To upgrade cars from \"feature phones\" To \"smartphones\".</p><p><img src=\"https://fid-75186.picgzc.qpic.cn/20210103204354004v235ugntdz5ads9\"/><strong>Reason</strong></p><p><strong>Software business contributes to the future<span>Gross profit</span></strong></p><p>Tesla is really becoming more and more like Apple, and its software business (FSD) is expected to contribute a quarter of the gross profit of its automotive business by 2025. In our report, \"A Groundbreaking New Species: Tesla is Increasingly Like Apple,\" released in February 2020, we repeatedly emphasized that Tesla is the \"Apple\" of the automotive industry, and software will be a core component of its business model. Based on the quantitative analysis above, we predict that Tesla's software business (FSD) is expected to contribute one-quarter of the gross profit of its automotive business by 2025, and its financial data will better reflect Tesla's software and technological attributes.</p><p><img src=\"https://fid-75186.picgzc.qpic.cn/20210103204354704v235q02n30wbh2r\"/>Where did the idea of defining Tesla in software come from?</p><p><img src=\"https://fid-75186.picgzc.qpic.cn/20210103204354993v235710f2oqpt8v\"/><img src=\"https://fid-75186.picgzc.qpic.cn/20210103204355344v235gb69svccres\"/><strong>Secrets hidden in financial statements</strong></p><p><strong>Software cash revenue has accumulated over $1 billion.</strong></p><p><img src=\"https://fid-75186.picgzc.qpic.cn/20210103204356108v235yweivmdlt0s\"/><img src=\"https://fid-75186.picgzc.qpic.cn/20210103204356740v235068ingncaht\"/>Autopilot FSD is Tesla's core application software. Tesla currently does not disclose revenue from its software business separately in its financial reports. Analyzing the company's business details, we can divide its software revenue into three parts, specifically:</p><p><strong>01</strong></p><p>Autopilot FSD (Full Self-Driving)</p><p>Fully autonomous driving optional package</p><p>Tesla's renowned Autopilot feature can be considered the soul of Tesla cars. After paying for activation, consumers can enjoy advanced autonomous driving functions including automatic parking, automatic navigation assistance, and intelligent summoning, and can continuously upgrade their autonomous driving capabilities through OTA over-the-air software. On July 1, 2020, its price had risen to $8,000 per set (64,000 yuan per set in China).</p><p><strong>02</strong></p><p>OTA paid upgrade</p><p>Tesla previously offered OTA software upgrades largely free of charge. Since 2019, Tesla has been actively exploring OTA paid upgrades. A typical example is the \"Acceleration Boost\" performance upgrade package. Model 3 owners can improve their car's 0-100 km/h acceleration time from 4.6 seconds to 4.1 seconds for a fee of $3,000.</p><p><strong>03</strong></p><p>Advanced vehicle networking functions</p><p>Starting in Q4 2019, Tesla launched its first advanced connectivity service fee ($9.90/month). After paying the service fee, owners can use advanced connectivity features such as real-time road conditions, karaoke, and streaming media.</p><p>Among them, OTA paid upgrades and advanced vehicle connectivity functions are two software businesses that Tesla has been gradually focusing on since 2019. Currently, FSD is Tesla's core application software, and its software revenue is mainly contributed by FSD optional packages.</p><p><img src=\"https://fid-75186.picgzc.qpic.cn/20210103204407832v235fhgs7sa2ab9\"/><img src=\"https://fid-75186.picgzc.qpic.cn/20210103204408413v235cfciyovp135\"/><strong>Revealing the key variables of Tesla's FSD revenue</strong></p><p><strong>DEFERRED</strong></p><p><img src=\"https://fid-75186.picgzc.qpic.cn/20210103204409706v235t0e1t2th79x\"/><img src=\"https://fid-75186.picgzc.qpic.cn/20210103204415460v2356myg2e5m990\"/>Because Tesla does not disclose the size of its FSD revenue in its financial reports, investors lack a transparent way to track its business development. After in-depth analysis of Tesla's financial reports, we found a core variable that can reveal Tesla's FSD revenue—deferred revenue. During the Q1 2020 earnings call, Tesla CFO Zachary Kirkhorn unveiled the concept of \"deferred revenue\" for software and provided a detailed explanation of the financial recognition rules for FSD revenue:</p><p>1) When consumers choose to activate the FSD kit, Tesla will receive $6,000 in cash (which has now increased to $8,000). The company will recognize half of this as current revenue and the other half as deferred revenue.</p><p>2) The rule for recognizing subsequent revenue is that when Tesla adds a new feature to FSD, the balance of deferred revenue can be converted into current revenue. For example, in Q3 2019, the company added a new feature, Smart Summon, to FSD, and therefore recognized $30 million in deferred revenue in that quarter.</p><p>According to Zachary Kirkhorn, as of Q1 2020, Tesla's deferred FSD revenue had exceeded $600 million.</p><p><img src=\"https://mmbiz.qpic.cn/mmbiz_png/rPn8EmBF38piaJmickz0F39KV1iaicJhSQ9uggawzngkRWyz5Hr75a9EvfArNDwqWHzQd0Klb3MNF8picYRZSKiaxK2w/640?wx_fmt=png\"/>Based on the core variable—deferred revenue—we can calculate through logic that Tesla's FSD activation rate exceeds 25% and its cumulative FSD cash revenue exceeds $1 billion. Based on the logic relationship shown in the figure below, we can calculate Tesla's FSD activation rate and accumulated FSD cash receipts using the key variable—deferred revenue. We expect Tesla's overall FSD activation rate to exceed 25%, with cumulative FSD cash revenue reaching $1.26 billion, of which FSD cash reached $560 million in 2019.</p><p><img src=\"https://fid-75186.picgzc.qpic.cn/20210103204433081v235o6hndmu6rr9\"/>Multiple sources of data corroborate this, indicating that the aforementioned projected Tesla FSD activation rate and cash revenue are largely consistent with the actual situation. 1) According to US tech media Electrek, as of 2019, Tesla had earned more than $1 billion in revenue from selling FSD kits. 2）<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/DB\">Deutsche Bank</a>In its Tesla report \"Positive takeaways from Tesla investor meetings\" released on May 11, 2020, Deutsche Bank predicted that the overall activation rate of Tesla's FSD would be approximately 25%-30%, mainly concentrated in the US market. 3）<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MS\">Morgan Stanley</a>（<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MSTLW\">Morgan Stanley</a>In Tesla's report \"Tesla: In 5 Key Debates\" issued on October 2, 2019, it was estimated that the overall activation rate of Tesla's FSD was around 30%.</p><p><img src=\"https://fid-75186.picgzc.qpic.cn/20210103204444114v235kviq2e3vh21\"/><img src=\"https://fid-75186.picgzc.qpic.cn/20210103204444845v235f9eokw4a7dm\"/><img src=\"https://fid-75186.picgzc.qpic.cn/20210103204445420v235ncms5bwwpbr\"/><strong>Future Predictions</strong></p><p><img src=\"https://fid-75186.picgzc.qpic.cn/20210103204445889v235j46c51267oi\"/><img src=\"https://fid-75186.picgzc.qpic.cn/20210103204446515v235ylnm66nr60q\"/>The analytical framework for the commercial potential of Tesla's software business is based on the short-term focus on the continued improvement of three major variables: car sales, activation rate, and unit price, while the medium- to long-term focus is on changes in the business model. From Musk's perspective, selling cars is just the beginning; charging for software services is the core business model for his future. Regarding the assessment of the commercial potential of Tesla's software business (Note: This article focuses on the FSD business and will not analyze other software businesses such as OTA paid upgrades and advanced connected vehicles), we believe it can be considered from two dimensions: short-term and medium- to long-term:</p><p>1) Short-term: Without changing the business model of charging a one-time fee for pre-installation, Tesla's software business is mainly driven by three major variables: vehicle sales, activation rate, and unit price.</p><p>2) Medium to long term: Musk is actively promoting the transformation of FSD from a one-time pre-installation fee model to a subscription service fee model. According to tech media outlet electrek, Tesla is expected to launch an FSD subscription service by the end of the year, priced at approximately $100 per month. Once the business model transformation for software subscription services is completed, every vehicle sold that activates FSD is expected to contribute continuous cash flow to Tesla.</p><p><img src=\"https://fid-75186.picgzc.qpic.cn/20210103204453320v235dzotu4s5893\"/>In the short term, we expect FSD revenue to reach nearly $7 billion by 2025, accounting for nearly 9% of Tesla's automotive business revenue and contributing 25% of the automotive business's gross profit. Based on the analysis of the three major variables of vehicle sales, activation rate, and unit price mentioned above, we have made a financial forecast for Tesla's FSD revenue (see Appendix 2 for detailed data). It is estimated that FSD revenue will reach nearly $7 billion in 2025, accounting for nearly 9% of Tesla's automotive business revenue and contributing 25% of the automotive business gross profit.</p><p>In the medium to long term, FSD is likely to shift to a software subscription service business model, with subscription service revenue expected to exceed $16 billion per year by 2030. Under the software subscription service model, the initial consumption threshold for FSD is further lowered, which is conducive to increasing consumer purchase rates and also aligns with Musk's business model of continuously charging for software. In the future, FSD will most likely switch to a software subscription service business model. Based on the software subscription service model, we predict that Tesla will have more than 18 million existing car owners by 2030, of which nearly 80% will become FSD subscribers, and FSD subscription service fees will reach $16 billion per year.</p><p><img src=\"https://fid-75186.picgzc.qpic.cn/20210103204454572v235ewchfvj37nu\"/>Unlike traditional analysis, through quantitative analysis of Tesla's software business, we can clearly see the value of software businesses, represented by autonomous driving, to automakers. We believe that Tesla is just the beginning of the wave of intelligentization and connectivity in the automotive industry. Driven by 5G + AI, the investment opportunities in the great wave of transformation in the automotive electronics industry may be even more amazing than those in Apple's supply chain 10 years ago!</p><p><strong>Disclaimer</strong></p><p>This report is for use only by clients of Anxin Securities Co., Ltd.

According to Tesla China's official website, the starting price of the Model Y Long Range Edition is 339,900 yuan, down from 488,000 yuan, a reduction of 148,100 yuan. The Model Y Performance Edition starts at 369,900 yuan, down from 535,000 yuan, a reduction of 165,100 yuan. In addition, Tesla launched a facelifted domestically produced Model 3. The upgraded Model 3 (standard range version) adds new features such as a power tailgate, heat pump air conditioning, and double-layer soundproof glass compared to the old Model, and the price remains at 249,900 yuan. The long-range Model 3, originally priced at 309,900 yuan, has been removed from shelves, while the high-performance Model 3 has been reduced in price from 419,000 yuan to 339,900 yuan.</p><p>The price drop of more than 100,000 yuan has pushed the Model Y directly into the price range of some of the main models of domestic new energy vehicle manufacturers, which has also brought greater competitive pressure to domestic new energy vehicle companies. Reports indicate that some car owners have even canceled their previously subscribed domestically produced new energy vehicle models overnight and are now turning their attention to Tesla.</p><p><img src=\"https://fid-75186.picgzc.qpic.cn/20210103204309124v235rhls52ohefz\"/><img src=\"https://fid-75186.picgzc.qpic.cn/20210103204312572v2353cmf474o1yu\"/>Source: Tesla official website, Anxin Securities Research Center</p><p>Possible reasons behind the price reduction</p><p><strong>Reason</strong></p><p><strong>Lower costs after continuous innovation?</strong></p><p>Tesla learned from the problem of excessive redundancy in the Model 3's chassis design, simplified the Model Y's body structure, improved the integration of the body, accelerated production speed, and reduced production costs. The Model Y employs extensive casting processes in its low center of gravity, robust structure, and collision protection, while the white body has significantly fewer parts compared to the Model 3. Although the standard range version of the Model Y has not yet been launched due to its range not meeting Musk's standards, the use of lithium iron phosphate batteries, combined with experience in optimizing software and performance to improve range, may help the standard range version of the Model Y break through the 230-mile range limit, achieve market sales, and lower the price of the Model Y. Furthermore, the current domestically produced Model Y uses LG's ternary lithium batteries, which are relatively expensive and will be equipped with them later.<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/300750\">CATL</a>The cost of domestically produced lithium iron phosphate batteries for the Model Y is expected to decrease further.</p><p><img src=\"https://fid-75186.picgzc.qpic.cn/20210103204314011v235700jrq7rogb\"/><strong>Reason</strong></p><p><strong>A virtuous cycle following continuous price reductions?</strong></p><p>Data shows that in the second half of 2019, the standard range version of the Model 3 had its price adjusted five times, with the adjusted final prices being 355,800 yuan/299,100 yuan/303,600 yuan/271,500 yuan/249,900 yuan respectively, making the Model 3 one of the most cost-effective high-end mid-size sedans in China. In addition, the long-range version of the Model 3, launched in May 2020, has also had its price adjusted once. As can be seen, every price reduction for the domestically produced Model 3 leads to an increase in sales. In November 2020, Model 3 sales exceeded 20,000 units, and the cumulative sales of domestically produced Model 3 reached 115,400 units from January to November 2020. Continuous price reductions have driven up sales, rapidly increasing Tesla's presence in China. In addition, Tesla's continuous product innovation and focus on optimizing practicality have attracted more consumers, forming a virtuous cycle.</p><p><img src=\"https://mmbiz.qpic.cn/mmbiz_png/rPn8EmBF38piaJmickz0F39KV1iaicJhSQ9ud7TvDIiaJykTAGDUQ7IOsyDzPA0L9dk59e3PDyQHvfQAcicVLibhSnpUQ/640?wx_fmt=png\"/>We believe Tesla's real confidence in lowering prices</p><p><img src=\"https://fid-75186.picgzc.qpic.cn/20210103204329887v235o9p38wsli2k\"/><img src=\"https://fid-75186.picgzc.qpic.cn/20210103204330865v235pyzyojl3t0p\"/><strong>Software!

In our previous report, we pointed out that Tesla-type \"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AAPL\">Apple</a>\"The cornerstone of a business model is—creating a groundbreaking...\"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/5RE.SI\">smart</a>Automobiles, representatives of emerging domestic car manufacturers<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/LI\">Li Auto</a>Founder Li Xiang once commented: \"Tesla is currently the only smart car in the world.\" Tesla is based on software + hardware (highly integrated electronic and electrical architecture), and uses the vehicle's OTA as a bridge to achieve continuous upgrades and frequent use of new cars. To sum up Tesla's level of intelligence in one sentence, it means truly upgrading the car from a \"feature phone\" to a \"smartphone\". Observing the industry, we can see that traditional automakers are also catching up and replicating Tesla's OTA capabilities for complete vehicles, but we believe that most of them are similar in form but not in spirit. The biggest problem with traditional automakers doing vehicle OTAs is that they are essentially B2B companies and do not directly face users. The \"users\" are the channel dealer network, so they do not hear a lot of voices from the user side. Not to mention the subsequent integration of front-end user feedback with back-end engineering department R&D, which enables continuous iteration and upgrading of vehicles based on vehicle OTA. Compared To the B2B attributes of traditional automakers, Tesla is more like a B2C technology company in terms of corporate culture, organizational structure, and technological level, and is better able To upgrade cars from \"feature phones\" To \"smartphones\".</p><p><img src=\"https://fid-75186.picgzc.qpic.cn/20210103204354004v235ugntdz5ads9\"/><strong>Reason</strong></p><p><strong>Software business contributes to the future<span>Gross profit</span></strong></p><p>Tesla is really becoming more and more like Apple, and its software business (FSD) is expected to contribute a quarter of the gross profit of its automotive business by 2025. In our report, \"A Groundbreaking New Species: Tesla is Increasingly Like Apple,\" released in February 2020, we repeatedly emphasized that Tesla is the \"Apple\" of the automotive industry, and software will be a core component of its business model. Based on the quantitative analysis above, we predict that Tesla's software business (FSD) is expected to contribute one-quarter of the gross profit of its automotive business by 2025, and its financial data will better reflect Tesla's software and technological attributes.</p><p><img src=\"https://fid-75186.picgzc.qpic.cn/20210103204354704v235q02n30wbh2r\"/>Where did the idea of defining Tesla in software come from?</p><p><img src=\"https://fid-75186.picgzc.qpic.cn/20210103204354993v235710f2oqpt8v\"/><img src=\"https://fid-75186.picgzc.qpic.cn/20210103204355344v235gb69svccres\"/><strong>Secrets hidden in financial statements</strong></p><p><strong>Software cash revenue has accumulated over $1 billion.</strong></p><p><img src=\"https://fid-75186.picgzc.qpic.cn/20210103204356108v235yweivmdlt0s\"/><img src=\"https://fid-75186.picgzc.qpic.cn/20210103204356740v235068ingncaht\"/>Autopilot FSD is Tesla's core application software. Tesla currently does not disclose revenue from its software business separately in its financial reports. Analyzing the company's business details, we can divide its software revenue into three parts, specifically:</p><p><strong>01</strong></p><p>Autopilot FSD (Full Self-Driving)</p><p>Fully autonomous driving optional package</p><p>Tesla's renowned Autopilot feature can be considered the soul of Tesla cars. After paying for activation, consumers can enjoy advanced autonomous driving functions including automatic parking, automatic navigation assistance, and intelligent summoning, and can continuously upgrade their autonomous driving capabilities through OTA over-the-air software. On July 1, 2020, its price had risen to $8,000 per set (64,000 yuan per set in China).</p><p><strong>02</strong></p><p>OTA paid upgrade</p><p>Tesla previously offered OTA software upgrades largely free of charge. Since 2019, Tesla has been actively exploring OTA paid upgrades. A typical example is the \"Acceleration Boost\" performance upgrade package. Model 3 owners can improve their car's 0-100 km/h acceleration time from 4.6 seconds to 4.1 seconds for a fee of $3,000.</p><p><strong>03</strong></p><p>Advanced vehicle networking functions</p><p>Starting in Q4 2019, Tesla launched its first advanced connectivity service fee ($9.90/month). After paying the service fee, owners can use advanced connectivity features such as real-time road conditions, karaoke, and streaming media.</p><p>Among them, OTA paid upgrades and advanced vehicle connectivity functions are two software businesses that Tesla has been gradually focusing on since 2019. Currently, FSD is Tesla's core application software, and its software revenue is mainly contributed by FSD optional packages.</p><p><img src=\"https://fid-75186.picgzc.qpic.cn/20210103204407832v235fhgs7sa2ab9\"/><img src=\"https://fid-75186.picgzc.qpic.cn/20210103204408413v235cfciyovp135\"/><strong>Revealing the key variables of Tesla's FSD revenue</strong></p><p><strong>DEFERRED</strong></p><p><img src=\"https://fid-75186.picgzc.qpic.cn/20210103204409706v235t0e1t2th79x\"/><img src=\"https://fid-75186.picgzc.qpic.cn/20210103204415460v2356myg2e5m990\"/>Because Tesla does not disclose the size of its FSD revenue in its financial reports, investors lack a transparent way to track its business development. After in-depth analysis of Tesla's financial reports, we found a core variable that can reveal Tesla's FSD revenue—deferred revenue. During the Q1 2020 earnings call, Tesla CFO Zachary Kirkhorn unveiled the concept of \"deferred revenue\" for software and provided a detailed explanation of the financial recognition rules for FSD revenue:</p><p>1) When consumers choose to activate the FSD kit, Tesla will receive $6,000 in cash (which has now increased to $8,000). The company will recognize half of this as current revenue and the other half as deferred revenue.</p><p>2) The rule for recognizing subsequent revenue is that when Tesla adds a new feature to FSD, the balance of deferred revenue can be converted into current revenue. For example, in Q3 2019, the company added a new feature, Smart Summon, to FSD, and therefore recognized $30 million in deferred revenue in that quarter.</p><p>According to Zachary Kirkhorn, as of Q1 2020, Tesla's deferred FSD revenue had exceeded $600 million.</p><p><img src=\"https://mmbiz.qpic.cn/mmbiz_png/rPn8EmBF38piaJmickz0F39KV1iaicJhSQ9uggawzngkRWyz5Hr75a9EvfArNDwqWHzQd0Klb3MNF8picYRZSKiaxK2w/640?wx_fmt=png\"/>Based on the core variable—deferred revenue—we can calculate through logic that Tesla's FSD activation rate exceeds 25% and its cumulative FSD cash revenue exceeds $1 billion. Based on the logic relationship shown in the figure below, we can calculate Tesla's FSD activation rate and accumulated FSD cash receipts using the key variable—deferred revenue. We expect Tesla's overall FSD activation rate to exceed 25%, with cumulative FSD cash revenue reaching $1.26 billion, of which FSD cash reached $560 million in 2019.</p><p><img src=\"https://fid-75186.picgzc.qpic.cn/20210103204433081v235o6hndmu6rr9\"/>Multiple sources of data corroborate this, indicating that the aforementioned projected Tesla FSD activation rate and cash revenue are largely consistent with the actual situation. 1) According to US tech media Electrek, as of 2019, Tesla had earned more than $1 billion in revenue from selling FSD kits. 2）<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/DB\">Deutsche Bank</a>In its Tesla report \"Positive takeaways from Tesla investor meetings\" released on May 11, 2020, Deutsche Bank predicted that the overall activation rate of Tesla's FSD would be approximately 25%-30%, mainly concentrated in the US market. 3）<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MS\">Morgan Stanley</a>（<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MSTLW\">Morgan Stanley</a>In Tesla's report \"Tesla: In 5 Key Debates\" issued on October 2, 2019, it was estimated that the overall activation rate of Tesla's FSD was around 30%.</p><p><img src=\"https://fid-75186.picgzc.qpic.cn/20210103204444114v235kviq2e3vh21\"/><img src=\"https://fid-75186.picgzc.qpic.cn/20210103204444845v235f9eokw4a7dm\"/><img src=\"https://fid-75186.picgzc.qpic.cn/20210103204445420v235ncms5bwwpbr\"/><strong>Future Predictions</strong></p><p><img src=\"https://fid-75186.picgzc.qpic.cn/20210103204445889v235j46c51267oi\"/><img src=\"https://fid-75186.picgzc.qpic.cn/20210103204446515v235ylnm66nr60q\"/>The analytical framework for the commercial potential of Tesla's software business is based on the short-term focus on the continued improvement of three major variables: car sales, activation rate, and unit price, while the medium- to long-term focus is on changes in the business model. From Musk's perspective, selling cars is just the beginning; charging for software services is the core business model for his future. Regarding the assessment of the commercial potential of Tesla's software business (Note: This article focuses on the FSD business and will not analyze other software businesses such as OTA paid upgrades and advanced connected vehicles), we believe it can be considered from two dimensions: short-term and medium- to long-term:</p><p>1) Short-term: Without changing the business model of charging a one-time fee for pre-installation, Tesla's software business is mainly driven by three major variables: vehicle sales, activation rate, and unit price.</p><p>2) Medium to long term: Musk is actively promoting the transformation of FSD from a one-time pre-installation fee model to a subscription service fee model. According to tech media outlet electrek, Tesla is expected to launch an FSD subscription service by the end of the year, priced at approximately $100 per month. Once the business model transformation for software subscription services is completed, every vehicle sold that activates FSD is expected to contribute continuous cash flow to Tesla.</p><p><img src=\"https://fid-75186.picgzc.qpic.cn/20210103204453320v235dzotu4s5893\"/>In the short term, we expect FSD revenue to reach nearly $7 billion by 2025, accounting for nearly 9% of Tesla's automotive business revenue and contributing 25% of the automotive business's gross profit. Based on the analysis of the three major variables of vehicle sales, activation rate, and unit price mentioned above, we have made a financial forecast for Tesla's FSD revenue (see Appendix 2 for detailed data). It is estimated that FSD revenue will reach nearly $7 billion in 2025, accounting for nearly 9% of Tesla's automotive business revenue and contributing 25% of the automotive business gross profit.</p><p>In the medium to long term, FSD is likely to shift to a software subscription service business model, with subscription service revenue expected to exceed $16 billion per year by 2030. Under the software subscription service model, the initial consumption threshold for FSD is further lowered, which is conducive to increasing consumer purchase rates and also aligns with Musk's business model of continuously charging for software. In the future, FSD will most likely switch to a software subscription service business model. Based on the software subscription service model, we predict that Tesla will have more than 18 million existing car owners by 2030, of which nearly 80% will become FSD subscribers, and FSD subscription service fees will reach $16 billion per year.</p><p><img src=\"https://fid-75186.picgzc.qpic.cn/20210103204454572v235ewchfvj37nu\"/>Unlike traditional analysis, through quantitative analysis of Tesla's software business, we can clearly see the value of software businesses, represented by autonomous driving, to automakers.

Y以及全新Model 3正式发售。特斯拉中国官网显示，Model Y长续航版起售价为33.99万元，此前为48.8万元，下调了14.81万元。Model Y Performance高性能版起售价为36.99万元，此前为53.5万元，下调了16.51万元。此外，特斯拉发售改款国产Model 3，其中，升级版Model 3（标准续航版）较老款新增电动尾门、热泵空调、双层隔音玻璃等配置，售价仍保持24.99万元；原售价为30.99万元的长续航版Model 3被下架，高性能版Model 3售价从41.90万元下降至33.99万元。10多万元的降幅让Model Y直接杀到了国产新势力部分主力车型的价格区间，这也给国内新能源车企带来更大竞争压力。有报道称，有车主甚至连夜退订此前认购的国产新势力车型，并将目光投向特斯拉。资料来源：特斯拉官网，安信证券研究中心降价背后的可能原因Reason持续创新后的更低成本？特斯拉汲取了Model 3在车架设计过度冗余的问题，简化了Model Y的车身结构，提升了车体的一体化程度，加快生产速度，并降低了生产成本。Model Y在白车身的低重心、坚固结构和碰撞保护方采用了大量铸造工艺，相比Model 3，白车身零件大幅减少。尽管标准续航版Model Y因续航未达马斯克标准而尚未推出，磷酸铁锂电池的使用辅以优化软件与效能提升续航里程的经验，或将帮助标准续航版Model Y突破230英里的续航里程限制，实现上市销售，拉低Model Y售价。此外，目前国产版Model Y 使用的是LG的三元锂电池，成本相对较高，后期搭载宁德时代磷酸铁锂电池的国产版Model Y成本有望进一步走低。Reason持续降价后的良性闭环？有数据表明，2019年下半年，标准续航版Model 3已调整过5次价格，调整后的到手价格分别为35.58万/29.91万/30.36万/27.15万/24.99万， Model 3一跃成为国内最具性价比的高端中型轿车之一；此外，2020年5月推出的长续航版Model 3也已经调整过1次价格。可以看到，国产Model 3的每一次降价均会带来销量的提升，2020年11月Model 3的销量已经突破2万辆，2020年1-11月国产Model 3累计销量达11.54万辆。持续降价带动销量上涨，快速提升了特斯拉在华保有量，加之特斯拉持续不断的产品创新，着力优化的实用性吸引更多的消费者，形成了一个良性循环。我们认为特斯拉降价的真正底气软件！软件！软件！Reason商业模式加速向“苹果”靠拢相比于传统车企，特斯拉更像是TO C的科技公司。我们在前期报告中指出特斯拉类“苹果”商业模式成立的基石是——打造出了划时代的智能汽车，国内新势力造车的代表人理想汽车创始人李想曾评价：“特斯拉是目前世界上唯一的智能汽车”。特斯拉基于软件+硬件（高集成的电子电气架构），以整车OTA为桥梁，可以实现汽车的持续升级和常用常新。一句话概括特斯拉汽车的智能化水平，就是真正把汽车从“功能机”升级为“智能机”。观察产业，可以看到传统车企也在奋起直追，复制特斯拉的整车OTA能力，但我们认为更多的是形似而神不似。传统车企做整车OTA的最大问题是，他们本质上还是To B 的公司，并不直接面对用户，“用户”是渠道经销商网络，因而也听不到大量的来自用户端的声音。更勿论随之而来的打通前端来自用户的声音和后端工程部门的研发，进而基于整车 OTA 完成车辆的持续迭代与升级了。相对于传统车企的To B属性，特斯拉从企业文化、组织结构、技术水平等方面来看，更像是TO C的科技公司，也更能实现将汽车从“功能机”升级为“智能机”。Reason软件业务贡献未来毛利特斯拉真的越来越像苹果了，其软件业务（FSD）有望在2025年将贡献汽车业务毛利的1/4。在2020年2月我们发布的报告《划时代新物种：特斯拉越来越像苹果了》中，我们反复强调：特斯拉就是汽车界的“苹果”，软件会是其商业模式核心组成部分。通过前文的量化分析，我们预测特斯拉的软件业务（FSD）有望在2025年将贡献汽车业务毛利的1/4，从财务数据上也将更反应特斯拉的软件和科技属性。以软件定义特斯拉的想法从何而来隐藏在财报中的秘密软件现金收入累积超10亿美元自动驾驶Autopilot FSD是特斯拉最核心的应用软件。特斯拉目前并未在其财报中单独披露软件业务的收入，分析公司的业务明细，我们可以把其软件收入组成分为三块，具体而言：01Autopilot FSD（Full Self-Driving）完全自动驾驶选装包特斯拉著名的自动驾驶的功能，也可以说是特斯拉汽车的灵魂。消费者付费激活后，可以享受到包括自动泊车、自动辅助导航驾驶、智能召唤等在内的高级自动驾驶功能，而且后续可以通过 OTA 空中软件持续升级自动驾驶能力。2020年7月1号，其价格已经上涨至8000美元/套（国内64000元/套）。02OTA付费升级特斯拉此前对于软件的OTA升级基本上是以免费的形式提供的。2019年以来，特斯拉开始积极尝试OTA付费升级。典型案例就是“Acceleration Boost”加速性能升级包。Model 3车主只要付费3000美元，即可将汽车的百公里加速性能从4.6s提升到4.1s。03高级车联网功能特斯拉从2019年Q4开始，首度开启车联网高级连接服务收费（9.9美元/月），车主支付了服务费后即可使用实时路况、卡拉OK、流媒体等高级车联网功能。其中，OTA付费升级以及高级车联网功能两块业务是特斯拉从2019年开始逐步发力的软件业务。现阶段，FSD是特斯拉最核心的应用软件，其软件收入也主要由FSD选装包贡献。揭示特斯拉FSD收入的关键变量递延收入由于特斯拉并不在财报中披露FSD的收入体量，投资者缺乏公开透明的途径进行跟踪其业务发展情况。在深入分析特斯拉财报之后，我们找到了可以揭示特斯拉FSD收入的核心变量——递延收入。特斯拉的CFO Zachary Kirkhorn在2020年Q1业绩说明会议上，公开了软件“递延收入”的概念，并对FSD收入的财务确认规则进行了详细介绍：1）当消费者选择激活FSD套件后，特斯拉会获得6000美元（现已上涨至8000美元）的现金，公司会将其中一半确认为当期收入，另一半则记为递延收入。2）后续收入的确认规则为，当特斯拉在FSD中新增加一项功能，就可将递延收入余额部分转换为当期收入。举例而言，2019年Q3，公司在FSD中添加了新功能Smart Summon（智能召唤），因此在当季度确认了3000万美元的递延收入。根据Zachary Kirkhorn披露，截止2020年Q1，特斯拉的FSD递延收入已经超过6亿美元。基于核心变量——递延收入，我们可以通过勾稽关系反算出特斯拉FSD激活率超25%，FSD 累计现金收入超10亿美元。根据下图所示的勾稽关系，通过关键变量——递延收入，我们可以反算出特斯拉FSD激活率以及累积FSD的现金收入。我们预计特斯拉FSD的整体激活率超25%，FSD 累计现金收入达到12.6亿美元，其中FSD在2019年的现金达到5.6亿美元。多方数据佐证，上述预计的特斯拉FSD激活率及现金收入与现实情况基本相符。1）根据美国科技媒体Electrek报道，截至2019年，特斯拉通过出售FSD套件获得的收入已经超过了10亿美元。2）德意志银行(Deutsche Bank)在2020年5月11日出具的特斯拉报告《Positive takeaways from Tesla investor meetings》中预测——特斯拉FSD整体的激活率大致在25%-30%，并且主要集中在美国市场。3）摩根士丹利（Morgan Stanley）在2019年10月2日出具的特斯拉报告《Tesla: In 5 Key Debates》中预估——特斯拉FSD整体的激活率大致在30%左右。未来预测特斯拉软件业务的商业潜力的分析框架——短期主要看汽车销量、激活率、单价三大变量的持续提升，中长期看商业模式变化。站在马斯克的视角，卖车只是开始，软件服务收费才是其未来最核心的商业模式。对于特斯拉软件业务的商业潜力的评估（附注：本文着重讨论FSD业务，暂不分析OTA付费升级、高级车联网等其他软件业务），我们认为可以从短期和中长期两个维度考虑：1）短期：在不改变前装一次性收费的商业模式的前提下，特斯拉软件业务主要由汽车销量、激活率、单价三大变量驱动2）中长期：马斯克正在积极推动FSD从一次性前装收费的模式转变成订阅服务持续收费的模式。根据科技媒体electrek报道，特斯拉有望在年底前推出FSD订阅服务，价格约为每月100美元。一旦完成软件订阅服务的商业模式转换，每辆激活FSD的销售车辆都有望为特斯拉贡献持续的现金流。短期来看，我们预计2025年FSD的收入将近70亿美元，占特斯拉汽车业务营收的接近9%，贡献25%的汽车业务毛利。综合前文对于汽车销量、激活率、单价三大变量的分析，我们对特斯拉FSD的收入进行了财务预测（详细数据参见附表2），预计2025年FSD的收入将近70亿美元，占特斯拉汽车业务营收的接近9%，贡献25%的汽车业务毛利。中长期来看，FSD将大概率切换成软件订阅服务的商业模式，预计2030年的订阅服务收入有望超过160亿美元/年。软件订阅服务的模式下，FSD前期消费门槛进一步降低，有利于提升消费者的购买率，并且也符合马斯克所倡导的软件持续收费的商业模式，未来FSD将大概率切换成软件订阅服务的商业模式。基于软件订阅服务模式下，我们预测2030年特斯拉将有超过1800万存量车主用户，其中近80%将成为FSD的订阅付费用户，FSD的订阅服务费将达到160亿美元/年。不同于传统的分析，我们通过对特斯拉软件业务的量化分析，可以清晰看到以自动驾驶为代表的软件业务对于整车厂的价值。我们认为，特斯拉只是汽车产业智能化、网联化浪潮的开端，在5G+AI驱动下，汽车电子产业变革大浪潮的投资机会或比10年前苹果产业链更为惊人！免责声明本报告仅供安信证券股份有限公司（以下简称“本公司”）的客户使用。本公司不会因为任何机构或个人接收到本报告而视其为本公司的当然客户。本报告基于已公开的资料或信息撰写，但本公司不保证该等信息及资料的完整性、准确性。本报告所载的信息、资料、建议及推测仅反映本公司于本报告发布当日的判断，本报告中的证券或投资标的价格、价值及投资带来的收入可能会波动。在不同时期，本公司可能撰写并发布与本报告所载资料、建议及推测不一致的报告。本公司不保证本报告所含信息及资料保持在最新状态，本公司将随时补充、更新和修订有关信息及资料，但不保证及时公开发布。同时，本公司有权对本报告所含信息在不发出通知的情形下做出修改，投资者应当自行关注相应的更新或修改。任何有关本报告的摘要或节选都不代表本报告正式完整的观点，一切须以本公司向客户发布的本报告完整版本为准，如有需要，客户可以向本公司投资顾问进一步咨询。在法律许可的情况下，本公司及所属关联机构可能会持有报告中提到的公司所发行的证券或期权并进行证券或期权交易，也可能为这些公司提供或者争取提供投资银行、财务顾问或者金融产品等相关服务，提请客户充分注意。客户不应将本报告为作出其投资决策的惟一参考因素，亦不应认为本报告可以取代客户自身的投资判断与决策。在任何情况下，本报告中的信息或所表述的意见均不构成对任何人的投资建议，无论是否已经明示或暗示，本报告不能作为道义的、责任的和法律的依据或者凭证。在任何情况下，本公司亦不对任何人因使用本报告中的任何内容所引致的任何损失负任何责任。本报告版权仅为本公司所有，未经事先书面许可，任何机构和个人不得以任何形式翻版、复制、发表、转发或引用本报告的任何部分。如征得本公司同意进行引用、刊发的，需在允许的范围内使用，并注明出处为“安信证券股份有限公司研究中心”，且不得对本报告进行任何有悖原意的引用、删节和修改。安信证券股份有限公司对本声明条款具有惟一修改权和最终解释权。","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"TSLA":1}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":2095,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"hots":[{"id":333749579,"gmtCreate":1609378153591,"gmtModify":1704978690980,"author":{"id":"3557305548001793","authorId":"3557305548001793","name":"Ikhas","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a0fd7b69b3c00ecf9cc780ede0cf5943","crmLevel":8,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3557305548001793","authorIdStr":"3557305548001793"},"themes":[],"title":"","htmlText":"bb","listText":"bb","text":"bb","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/333749579","repostId":"339422605","repostType":1,"repost":{"id":339422605,"gmtCreate":1609042156407,"gmtModify":1704977217721,"author":{"id":"3502662293881250","authorId":"3502662293881250","name":"安心睡大觉","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5644d6d3b2f1f98162851b875f4d8ac5","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3502662293881250","authorIdStr":"3502662293881250"},"themes":[],"title":"比特幣的價值與缺陷","htmlText":"但斌的茅臺，南非、張磊的騰訊，孫正義的阿里，李笑來的比特幣。這些都是投資的封頂之作，收益率都高的驚人。比特幣上漲倍數是四個最高的，我熟悉茅臺、騰訊的價值，暫時沒搞清楚阿里的核心價值，但對比特幣的價值一無所知。知道比特幣是2017年初的時候，印象特別深的是郎鹹平那一期《五問比特幣》，認爲比特幣毫無價值。我當時研究後的核心疑問有兩點：1、比特幣作爲貨幣，背後沒有主權信用背書，價值在哪？2、比特幣背後是一種永久性不公平，前面的人獲得了大量財富，越後面來的越是傻瓜，要讓大多數人接受，無外乎將手中的別墅換成了最初投資者手中的一美元鋼鏰。2018年底我終於遇到了在幣圈投資的同事，那一年比特幣價格相較於以前下降了不少，我將這兩個問題拋給他，沒有得到很好地回答。只是隱約感覺有價值。直到最近，比特幣價格暴漲到2.6萬美元一個，大連一家三口因爲比特幣自殺，研究的老虎證券涉及到未來業務中資金的出入金問題。我纔將比特幣的價值思考明白了。比特幣作爲一個非生產性資產，本身不產生價值。但不能說它就沒價值，它的價值主要體現在兩個方面：1、抗通脹，特別是貨幣通脹。這就抑制了貨幣政策的獨立性，例如美國只要開動印鈔機，無形中掠奪人們財富，那麼就會有更多的人去選擇實物資產。比特幣總量一定，未來肯定不會亂髮，天然抗通脹，成爲了很好替代品。這就是爲何08年之後誕生，2020年疫情之後美國無限量化之後比特幣大漲的原因。2.流動價值，特別是跨境匯款。不得不說比特幣誕生到較大範圍的運用流淌着骯髒的血液，就好比最初的鐵路下埋葬了很多奴工，淘金之路死去的淘金客。比特幣是很好的洗錢工具，如果要逃避監管，比特幣去中心化，可以讓傳統洗錢流失率12%至35%降低到5%以下，行情好的時候甚至可以洗的更多。如今這種流通價值，平常人學習後都能將資金在境內外來去自如，不受監管約束。而這種提高資金自由流動的效率，就是價值。巴菲特也知道，但他在美","listText":"但斌的茅臺，南非、張磊的騰訊，孫正義的阿里，李笑來的比特幣。這些都是投資的封頂之作，收益率都高的驚人。比特幣上漲倍數是四個最高的，我熟悉茅臺、騰訊的價值，暫時沒搞清楚阿里的核心價值，但對比特幣的價值一無所知。知道比特幣是2017年初的時候，印象特別深的是郎鹹平那一期《五問比特幣》，認爲比特幣毫無價值。我當時研究後的核心疑問有兩點：1、比特幣作爲貨幣，背後沒有主權信用背書，價值在哪？2、比特幣背後是一種永久性不公平，前面的人獲得了大量財富，越後面來的越是傻瓜，要讓大多數人接受，無外乎將手中的別墅換成了最初投資者手中的一美元鋼鏰。2018年底我終於遇到了在幣圈投資的同事，那一年比特幣價格相較於以前下降了不少，我將這兩個問題拋給他，沒有得到很好地回答。只是隱約感覺有價值。直到最近，比特幣價格暴漲到2.6萬美元一個，大連一家三口因爲比特幣自殺，研究的老虎證券涉及到未來業務中資金的出入金問題。我纔將比特幣的價值思考明白了。比特幣作爲一個非生產性資產，本身不產生價值。但不能說它就沒價值，它的價值主要體現在兩個方面：1、抗通脹，特別是貨幣通脹。這就抑制了貨幣政策的獨立性，例如美國只要開動印鈔機，無形中掠奪人們財富，那麼就會有更多的人去選擇實物資產。比特幣總量一定，未來肯定不會亂髮，天然抗通脹，成爲了很好替代品。這就是爲何08年之後誕生，2020年疫情之後美國無限量化之後比特幣大漲的原因。2.流動價值，特別是跨境匯款。不得不說比特幣誕生到較大範圍的運用流淌着骯髒的血液，就好比最初的鐵路下埋葬了很多奴工，淘金之路死去的淘金客。比特幣是很好的洗錢工具，如果要逃避監管，比特幣去中心化，可以讓傳統洗錢流失率12%至35%降低到5%以下，行情好的時候甚至可以洗的更多。如今這種流通價值，平常人學習後都能將資金在境內外來去自如，不受監管約束。而這種提高資金自由流動的效率，就是價值。巴菲特也知道，但他在美","text":"但斌的茅臺，南非、張磊的騰訊，孫正義的阿里，李笑來的比特幣。這些都是投資的封頂之作，收益率都高的驚人。比特幣上漲倍數是四個最高的，我熟悉茅臺、騰訊的價值，暫時沒搞清楚阿里的核心價值，但對比特幣的價值一無所知。知道比特幣是2017年初的時候，印象特別深的是郎鹹平那一期《五問比特幣》，認爲比特幣毫無價值。我當時研究後的核心疑問有兩點：1、比特幣作爲貨幣，背後沒有主權信用背書，價值在哪？2、比特幣背後是一種永久性不公平，前面的人獲得了大量財富，越後面來的越是傻瓜，要讓大多數人接受，無外乎將手中的別墅換成了最初投資者手中的一美元鋼鏰。2018年底我終於遇到了在幣圈投資的同事，那一年比特幣價格相較於以前下降了不少，我將這兩個問題拋給他，沒有得到很好地回答。只是隱約感覺有價值。直到最近，比特幣價格暴漲到2.6萬美元一個，大連一家三口因爲比特幣自殺，研究的老虎證券涉及到未來業務中資金的出入金問題。我纔將比特幣的價值思考明白了。比特幣作爲一個非生產性資產，本身不產生價值。但不能說它就沒價值，它的價值主要體現在兩個方面：1、抗通脹，特別是貨幣通脹

After all, the S&P 500's P/E climbed to 30 and earnings peaked only twenty years ago and now. Admittedly, the US stock market bull market may continue for some time, but it is clearly not advisable for investors to remain cautious and vigilant.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6f413590001cd843da7ab41f47554741\" tg-width=\"1080\" tg-height=\"718\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Last Friday, boosted by strong confidence in the prospects for economic recovery, the S&P 500 index once again broke its historical closing record. This means that the US stock market has reached a delicate juncture – P/E is extremely high, with earnings per share reaching a historic high. This has only happened twice in history, in September 2000 and now. Based on the closing level of 4185.47 points, the index has reached above 30 relative to \"normal\" earnings (see below).</p><p>At first glance, a P/E of 30 doesn't seem too scary. After all, last June, the most basic version of the P/E, namely the P/E based on the net profit records of the past four quarters under GAAP, once reached 31. At that time, the market was about 26% lower than it is now. By the end of the fourth quarter of last year, P/E had reached nearly 40. However, this number did not bother the bulls at the time; in fact, the S&P 500 index entered a party mode from then on.</p><p>The key point is that, against the backdrop of the economy being deeply tormented by the pandemic, using distorted profits to measure whether stock prices are expensive or low has completely lost its meaning. For example, from the fourth quarter of 2019 to the fourth quarter of 2020, one-third of corporate profits vanished, causing various valuation indicators to soar to extremely high levels.</p><p>It is obvious that as the pandemic crisis gradually becomes a thing of the past, corporate profits will rebound sharply from their lows. To determine whether current stock prices are in the expensive or low range on the price spectrum, and then predict the future direction of the stock market based on this, we must first obtain a key reference point: \"normalized profits\". Specifically, when the recovery finally materializes, S&P companies are most likely to make a profit. Here, you can use the earnings per share data for the fourth quarter of 2019, which was $139.47 after annualization.</p><p>There are two main reasons for selecting data from 2019. First, profits in 2019 not only reached an absolute record high, but were also at a historically high level relative to sales and other projects. This means that it will be much more difficult for the truly normalized profits to surpass their level in the future. Although the bulls might insist that a 30% P/E is not a problem, because 2021 profits would even dwarf 2019.</p><p>Secondly, even under the strong economy in 2019, quarterly profits remained largely unchanged, which means that corporate profits have reached a very high level relative to fundamentals, so there is little room for further profit growth. Even now, Wall Street analysts, who have always been known for their ultra-optimism, generally only expect annualized earnings per share in the second quarter of 2021 to reach $139, the same as in the fourth quarter of 2019. In short, in terms of corporate profits, a return to that peak is the most likely scenario to occur in 2021.</p><p>Historically, the S&P 500's unemployment rate exceeding 30% has occurred during periods of significant decline or even collapse in earnings, with the only exception being the current one. For example, in the fourth quarter of 1999, when the peak of the dot-com bubble was approaching, the P/E index reached 30.5, and at that time, earnings per share were at a historically high level, which was tantamount to sounding an alarm. Investors are essentially offering more than $30 for every $1 of profit, which is already at its limit and is unlikely to go any further.</p><p>Although earnings per share persisted for a while afterward, reaching a new high of $53.70 in the third quarter of 2000, they did not return to that level for the next four years. The record profits came as the S&P 500 also reached a near-record high of 1,518 points on September 1, 2000. At that time, the index had risen by 120% in the previous four years. In short, the most suitable time to compare it with the present is perhaps the period of 2000. After all, there are only two times when the S&P 500 index has peaked at both its earnings per share and its points.</p><p>Twenty years ago, on September 1, 2000, the traditional P/E of the S&P 500 was 26.75. From this perspective, today's P/E is 30, which is 12% higher than before. However, P/E alone clearly cannot reflect the overall picture of the market. For example, if we take fundamentals as a reference, earnings per share in 2000 were actually higher than in 2021. From this perspective, the P/E at the time was actually higher than it appeared because profits were destined to decline, while the P/E today is actually lower than it appears because profit levels will rise significantly.</p><p>Although the various factors that need to be taken into account are complex, with positive and negative factors intersecting, overall, corporate profit levels in the fourth quarter of 2019 looked similar to those at the peak of the tech bubble, both at the highs of their respective cycles, and even higher. For example, in 2019, the S&P 500's total earnings were equivalent to 5.4% of national income, one percentage point higher than the 4.4% in the four quarters ending in September 2000. In terms of the ratio of operating profit to sales, the so-called operating profit margin, the figure in 2019 reached 11.1%, which is 4 percentage points higher than the cycle 20 years ago. However, the index's return on equity was indeed better twenty years ago than in 2019, at 17.5% compared to 15.5%.</p><p>While not all, most indicators clearly show that corporate profits in 2019 were relatively higher than in 2000. For now, let's be conservative and assume that the two are on the same level. In conclusion, these are the only two periods in US stock market history where P/E reached very high levels around 30, while earnings reached historic highs. What clues can be gleaned from this comparison about the current and future of the S&P 500?</p><p>If investors had already entered the market, then the fact that the P/E climbed all the way to 30 during the stock market boom is certainly good news for them. However, if investors are only now preparing to enter the market, or if they are preparing not to cash in on their profits and continue to hold large U.S. stock indexes, then this is not good news for them. In this regard, it could not be clearer to look at what happened after September 1, 2000. The S&P 500 entered a long downward trend, falling to 801 points on March 11, 2003, a loss of 47% in the process. It was only seven years later, in September 2007, that the index returned to the level of September 2000.</p><p>As is well known, after that, due to the global financial crisis, another new downward channel awaited the index, and it was already March 2013 when it climbed above 1500 points again. In other words, over a twelve-year period, if Dividend returns are not counted, the return that the index can provide to investors is a huge zero.</p><p>Of course, no one can accurately predict whether the US stock market will experience a crash similar to the one after the bursting of the dot-com bubble. Currently, the bulls expect that the US stock market will enter full-speed sailing mode driven by two favorable factors: rapidly growing corporate profits will significantly exceed those of 2019, and ultra-low interest rates will continue to be maintained in the coming years, providing continuous support.</p><p>Of course, neither of these possibilities can be completely ruled out, but objectively speaking, neither is highly probable. As for how much benefit to gain from either, the probability will decrease further. First, let's look at corporate profits. As mentioned earlier, peak profits in 2019 were equivalent to 5.4% of national income, reaching a historic high. For profits to grow faster than GDP, as Wall Street expects, it means that the relative proportion of profits needs to be further increased, which is obviously difficult to expect.</p><p>Moreover, by the end of last week, the total market capitalization of the S&P 500 relative to national income had reached a staggering 161%, nearly a quarter higher than 130% in 2000 and nearly double the average figure of the past two decades. This means that increasing the profit share will become even more difficult.</p><p>Now, wages are finally starting to rise after years of stagnation, and corporate tax rates are likely to increase significantly during the Biden administration. Under these circumstances, maintaining profits above 160% of national income requires further profit expansion, and expecting profit expansion to continue is far too difficult a task.</p><p>As for interest rates, the bulls are hoping that the 10-year Treasury Bond yield will continue to rise at a rate lower than the GDP growth rate over the next few years. This is the premise of all expectations, but unfortunately, such a thing has rarely happened in history. The fact is that real interest rates, adjusted for inflation, normally rise at the same rate as economic growth, and the cycles in which real interest rates turn negative are often extremely short.</p><p>The most reasonable interpretation of the fact that today's yields are even lower than the inflation rate is that this is just a historical exception, a special phenomenon that occurred after the economy suffered a severe pandemic that is only happening once in many years.</p><p>In conclusion, it's best to respect history. After all, the S&P 500 P/E climbed to 30 and peaked in profits only twenty years ago and now. Admittedly, the US stock market bull market may continue for some time, but it is clearly not advisable for investors to remain cautious and vigilant.</p>","source":"txmg","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>The alarm went off!

After all, the S&P 500's P/E climbed to 30 and earnings peaked only twenty years ago and now. Admittedly, the US stock market bull market may continue for some time, but it is clearly not advisable for investors to remain cautious and vigilant.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6f413590001cd843da7ab41f47554741\" tg-width=\"1080\" tg-height=\"718\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Last Friday, boosted by strong confidence in the prospects for economic recovery, the S&P 500 index once again broke its historical closing record. This means that the US stock market has reached a delicate juncture – P/E is extremely high, with earnings per share reaching a historic high. This has only happened twice in history, in September 2000 and now. Based on the closing level of 4185.47 points, the index has reached above 30 relative to \"normal\" earnings (see below).</p><p>At first glance, a P/E of 30 doesn't seem too scary. After all, last June, the most basic version of the P/E, namely the P/E based on the net profit records of the past four quarters under GAAP, once reached 31. At that time, the market was about 26% lower than it is now. By the end of the fourth quarter of last year, P/E had reached nearly 40. However, this number did not bother the bulls at the time; in fact, the S&P 500 index entered a party mode from then on.</p><p>The key point is that, against the backdrop of the economy being deeply tormented by the pandemic, using distorted profits to measure whether stock prices are expensive or low has completely lost its meaning. For example, from the fourth quarter of 2019 to the fourth quarter of 2020, one-third of corporate profits vanished, causing various valuation indicators to soar to extremely high levels.</p><p>It is obvious that as the pandemic crisis gradually becomes a thing of the past, corporate profits will rebound sharply from their lows. To determine whether current stock prices are in the expensive or low range on the price spectrum, and then predict the future direction of the stock market based on this, we must first obtain a key reference point: \"normalized profits\". Specifically, when the recovery finally materializes, S&P companies are most likely to make a profit. Here, you can use the earnings per share data for the fourth quarter of 2019, which was $139.47 after annualization.</p><p>There are two main reasons for selecting data from 2019. First, profits in 2019 not only reached an absolute record high, but were also at a historically high level relative to sales and other projects. This means that it will be much more difficult for the truly normalized profits to surpass their level in the future. Although the bulls might insist that a 30% P/E is not a problem, because 2021 profits would even dwarf 2019.</p><p>Secondly, even under the strong economy in 2019, quarterly profits remained largely unchanged, which means that corporate profits have reached a very high level relative to fundamentals, so there is little room for further profit growth. Even now, Wall Street analysts, who have always been known for their ultra-optimism, generally only expect annualized earnings per share in the second quarter of 2021 to reach $139, the same as in the fourth quarter of 2019. In short, in terms of corporate profits, a return to that peak is the most likely scenario to occur in 2021.</p><p>Historically, the S&P 500's unemployment rate exceeding 30% has occurred during periods of significant decline or even collapse in earnings, with the only exception being the current one. For example, in the fourth quarter of 1999, when the peak of the dot-com bubble was approaching, the P/E index reached 30.5, and at that time, earnings per share were at a historically high level, which was tantamount to sounding an alarm. Investors are essentially offering more than $30 for every $1 of profit, which is already at its limit and is unlikely to go any further.</p><p>Although earnings per share persisted for a while afterward, reaching a new high of $53.70 in the third quarter of 2000, they did not return to that level for the next four years. The record profits came as the S&P 500 also reached a near-record high of 1,518 points on September 1, 2000. At that time, the index had risen by 120% in the previous four years. In short, the most suitable time to compare it with the present is perhaps the period of 2000. After all, there are only two times when the S&P 500 index has peaked at both its earnings per share and its points.</p><p>Twenty years ago, on September 1, 2000, the traditional P/E of the S&P 500 was 26.75. From this perspective, today's P/E is 30, which is 12% higher than before. However, P/E alone clearly cannot reflect the overall picture of the market. For example, if we take fundamentals as a reference, earnings per share in 2000 were actually higher than in 2021. From this perspective, the P/E at the time was actually higher than it appeared because profits were destined to decline, while the P/E today is actually lower than it appears because profit levels will rise significantly.</p><p>Although the various factors that need to be taken into account are complex, with positive and negative factors intersecting, overall, corporate profit levels in the fourth quarter of 2019 looked similar to those at the peak of the tech bubble, both at the highs of their respective cycles, and even higher.

的130%还要高出近四分之一，较之过去二十年的平均数字更是高出近一倍，这就意味着，利润占比想要提升，难度还将进一步增大。现在，工资在停滞多年后终于开始上涨，而企业税率很可能在拜登政府任内大幅度提升，在这种情况下，盈利要保持高过国民收入160%的水平，就已经需要利润进一步扩张了，指望利润扩张再扩张，这任务未免太过艰难。至于利率方面，牛派所指望的是，未来几年当中，十年期国债收益率的上涨速度将持续低于国内生产总值的增长速度，这是一切预期的前提，但遗憾的是，这样的事情在历史上极少发生。事实是，根据通货膨胀调整后的真实利率在正常情况下，其上涨速度是与经济增长同步的\"，而真实利率变成负数的周期，往往都极为短暂。今天收益率甚至不及通货膨胀率的现象，最合理的解读只能是，这只是一个历史的例外，是一种经济遭受多少年都仅此一次的严重疫情打击后，出现的特殊现象。总而言之，大家最好还是尊重一下历史，毕竟标普500指数市盈率攀升到30，且盈利见顶的情况，历史上只在二十年前和现在出现过。诚然，美股牛市可能还会继续一段时间，但是投资者不保持谨慎，不保持警惕，显然是不可取的。","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{".DJI":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":4866,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":343064676,"gmtCreate":1617664536895,"gmtModify":1704701429799,"author":{"id":"3557305548001793","authorId":"3557305548001793","name":"Ikhas","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a0fd7b69b3c00ecf9cc780ede0cf5943","crmLevel":8,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3557305548001793","authorIdStr":"3557305548001793"},"themes":[],"title":"","htmlText":"rise

Allen)创办微软，已经过去了46个年头。\n就像46岁的中年人，微软终于熬过了中年危机，以成熟低调的姿态重回高调耀眼的科技王座。\n为了纪念共同走过的那些岁月，小编翻箱倒柜，找出了微软一路走来的历程。\n帝国的崛起\n提到微软，还得从比尔·盖茨这一风云人物说起。\n19岁的比尔·盖茨应该是最成功的哈佛辍学者。\n1975年，比尔·盖茨从哈佛大学退学，和他的高中校友保罗·艾伦一起卖BASIC（Beginners' All-purpose Symbolic Instruction Code）。BASIC是「初学者通用符号指令代码」，是一种设计给初学者使用的程序设计语言。\n\n当盖茨还在哈佛读书时，他们还曾为MITS公司的Altair编制语言。\n后来，盖茨和艾伦搬到美国新墨西哥州阿尔伯克基，并在当地一家旅馆房间里创建了微软公司，公司创立初期以修改BASIC程序为主要业务继续发展。\n那么，你知道Microsoft这个名字如何得来的吗？\nMicrosoft一词由「Microcomputer」和「software」两部分组成。\n\n如果你知道DOS，这会充分暴露你的年龄！\n20世纪80年代，IBM公司选中微软为其新PC编写关键的操作系统软件——这成为微软发展中的一个重大转折点。\n但是由于当时时间紧迫，程序复杂，微软便以5万美元的价格从西雅图的一位程序编制者帕特森手中买下了一个操作系统的使用权，再把它改写为磁盘操作系统软件（MS-DOS）。\nMS-DOS只是一个单用户单任务的操作系统，像Windows 95、Windows 98和Windows Me等正是以DOS为操作系统载体。\n\nMS-DOS在IBM-PC机的普及取得了巨大的成功。其他的PC制造者都希望与IBM兼容，因此80年代，它成了PC机的标准操作系统。\n1995年，正值39岁的盖茨以129亿美元身价登顶世界首富的王座。微软当年销售收入为59亿美元，员工达到了17801人。\n实际上从1995年到2007年，盖茨连续13年《福布斯》全球首富排行榜第一，成为最大的人生赢家。\n跨世纪大作：Windows\n1983年11月10日，Windows操作系统首次登台亮相。该产品是MS-DOS操作系统的演进版，并提供了图形用户界面。\nMicrosoft Windows 1.0 于1985年正式推出，结束了微软操作系统的命令行时代。\n\n与Windows不同，MS-DOS通过使用命令来进行操作，系统根据用户输入的命令进行程序的运行。\n而Windows 1.0允许用户指向并单击以访问Windows，而不是键入MS-DOS命令。\n微软发布的Windows 1.0操作系统其实就是对MS-DOS的扩展，在当时没有受到欢迎。随着不断迭代，Windows 3.0终于迎来了最初的胜利。\n那是1989年末，微软正在努力工作，最终敲定了它所知道的迄今为止最好的Windows版本。\nWindows 3.0版通过一个新的3D斜面设计和闪亮的新图标在图形用户界面上投下了重注。\n\n正如微软当时所说，这是一个令人兴奋的产品。\n经过二十多年的发展，微软在2015年7月29日发布了如今大家都在使用的Windows 10操作系统。\n\n王者的落幕\n鲍尔默时代的微软一败再败。\n2000年比尔·盖茨把首席执行官的位置交给了曾经负责公司运营和日常管理的史蒂夫·鲍尔默，\n还给自己创建了一个新的职位：首席软件构架师。\n直到2008年，鲍尔默接替盖茨成为微软的总裁。在执掌微软的13年间，虽然鲍尔默带领微软创下了优秀的成绩：员工数增加3倍，年营收增长4倍，年利润增长10倍。\n但是，作为微软的第二任 CEO，鲍尔默遭受过很多的批评。\n\n他带领着微软的屡次尝试多以失败告终，Windows Phone 遭 iOS、Android 绞杀，Windows 8 频遭诟病，云计算难于突破。\n在鲍尔默出任微软CEO期间，微软的巨大潜力已经渗透到了软件界的方方面面，简直是所向披靡，\nWindows在PC操作系统市场的份额超过90%，微软的巨大影响已经对软件同行构成了极大的压力，把自己推上了反垄断法的被告位置。\n帝国反击：王者时代的归来\n2014年，一位46岁的印度人——萨蒂亚·纳德拉(Satya Nadella)正式接任微软第三任CEO。\n那时的微软犹如一个迟暮的巨人，难以追逐时代的步伐，而纳德拉却一手导演了微软的伟大复兴。\n\n纳德拉不仅仅是转变了微软的商业策略，还改革了微软的企业文化。他一直致力于通过改变微软的思维方式改变其运作方式。\n到现在，微软市值已经达1.83万亿美元。\n\n此后的5年中，纳德拉带领微软重新找到了方向。\n微软裁撤了前CEO鲍尔默以72亿美元收购的诺基亚手机业务，宣布历史上最大规模的裁员，裁员人数占该公司全球12多万名员工总数的14%。\n这一切取舍，全是为了将开发重心放在云端服务上。\n在纳德拉的领导下，微软削减了Windows部门的预算，并且建立了一个庞大的云计算业务——Microsoft Azure。\n\n目前，微软的云平台Azure赢得了许多大型企业客户的青睐。\n我们办公生产力软件Office也逐渐成为一个云服务，它获得了超过2.14亿订阅用户，这些用户每年都要缴纳99美元的订阅费。\n在微软内部员工看来，公司的复兴，纳德拉对企业文化的改造功不可没！\n上任CEO留下的微软正处于严重内斗之中，高管争权，团队之间遇到问题相互推卸责任。\n在《刷新——重新发现商业与未来》一书中，纳德拉直言，「商业策略转型并非他作为微软CEO的第一要务，CEO是首席执行官，更是文化执行官。」\n\n他激励微软员工成为「无所不学」（learn-it-all）的人。\n从Windows到云，纳德拉改造微软战车，成就了微软万亿美元市值。\n微软46岁，归来仍是王者。","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"MSFT":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":5388,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":340031505,"gmtCreate":1617321307907,"gmtModify":1704698689434,"author":{"id":"3557305548001793","authorId":"3557305548001793","name":"Ikhas","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a0fd7b69b3c00ecf9cc780ede0cf5943","crmLevel":8,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3557305548001793","authorIdStr":"3557305548001793"},"themes":[],"title":"","htmlText":"industry

Since the plan has not yet been officially announced, this report uses Biden's infrastructure and tax increase plans proposed during his campaign as a blueprint to understand Biden's infrastructure and tax increases from four perspectives (necessity, historical comparison, specific measures, and impact), in order to gain a general understanding of the measures and impact of the formal reconstruction plan in the future.</p><p>Biden's infrastructure: How to build it?</p><p><b>1. Is it necessary for the United States to invest heavily in infrastructure at present?</b></p><p>It is absolutely necessary. First, the state of infrastructure is worrying. According to ASCE's latest assessment, U.S. infrastructure remains \"mostly substandard,\" indicating a serious \"deterioration.\" According to the Global Competitiveness Report, the United States ranked 13th globally in infrastructure in 2019, up from 5th in 2002. Secondly, there is a large investment gap. The total infrastructure investment gap over the next decade has reached $2.59 trillion. Finally, infrastructure spending is far lower than that of major economies. Europe's infrastructure spending is equivalent to 5% of GDP, China's infrastructure spending is about 8% of GDP, and the United States' is only 2.4%. The United States mainly relies on local and state governments for infrastructure investment, but local governments are gradually \"unable to keep up\". As infrastructure stock continues to grow, state and local governments have had to bear more operating and maintenance costs, and new investment has been declining since the beginning of the 21st century.</p><p><b>II. Are there any precedents for the federal government leading infrastructure investment?</b></p><p>Historically, Biden's infrastructure investment is the second largest federal infrastructure investment in the United States since the last century. Since the beginning of the last century, the U.S. federal government has led four rounds of large-scale infrastructure investment, with the largest investment being the Roosevelt New Deal, which spent $18 billion on public works, accounting for 31% of GDP in 1933. The least invested was Obama's ARRA Act, which spent $120 billion on infrastructure, accounting for 0.8% of GDP in 2009. Eisenhower spent $25 billion to build interstate highways, accounting for 5.6% of GDP in 1956, while Clinton's information superhighway program cost a total of $400 billion, accounting for 5.8% of GDP in 1993. Biden's infrastructure investment amounted to approximately $1.3 trillion, accounting for 6.1% of GDP in 2019, making it the second largest investment since the last century.</p><p><b>III. What are Biden's specific infrastructure measures?</b></p><p>The plan proposed on Biden's campaign website is $2 trillion over 10 years, representing 9.3% of 2019 GDP. Infrastructure investment amounted to $1.3 trillion, accounting for 6.1% of GDP in 2019. The plan has three key points: 1) The content is very broad. It covers eight major areas: modern infrastructure, automotive industry development, clean power investment, building renovation and housing construction, clean energy investment, sustainable agriculture, equal community development, and manufacturing revitalization. 2) Promoting employment and rebuilding the middle class are the \"main focus\". 3) Keep manufacturing in the United States. The need to prevent manufacturing relocation is inherently consistent with the need to create jobs. It should be noted that the investment amounts for each sector in the plan are not yet clear, and only a few projects have proposed specific investment amounts.</p><p><b>IV. What impact will Biden's infrastructure projects have on the US economy?</b></p><p>1) Impact on GDP: Over 10 years, infrastructure spending will be approximately $130 billion annually. Estimated based on an output multiplier of 0.4-3 (assessed by the University of Maryland and the CBO), the additional output contribution to GDP will be approximately $52 billion to $390 billion annually, which is about 0.2% to 1.8% of the nominal GDP in 2019. 2) Impact on employment: Biden's reconstruction plan may create more than 10 million jobs in the United States over the next decade. 3) Bank of America estimates that Biden’s infrastructure plan may bring 2% to 9% GDP growth in the short term and “significant” GDP growth in the long term.</p><p>Biden raises taxes: How?</p><p><b>First, Biden's tax increase is almost certain.</b></p><p>Three reasons: 1) Tax increases are one of Biden's campaign slogans, and they are likely to be implemented. 2) Biden's campaign website explicitly states that the $1.3 trillion in infrastructure investment will be raised entirely by \"ensuring that the super-rich and corporations pay their fair share of (taxes).\" 3) Treasury Secretary Yellen has stated that part of the spending for the next bill (Biden's reconstruction plan) will be raised by tax increases.</p><p><b>Second, there are precedents for raising taxes.</b></p><p>Since the 1950s, the income tax rate in the United States has generally shown a downward trend, with more tax cuts and fewer tax increases. There were three major tax increases. The first was the \"Vietnam War Surcharge\" levied from 1968 to 1970 to cover the expenses of the Vietnam War. Second, in 1990, George H.W. Bush raised taxes to cope with the growing deficit. Third, Clinton raised taxes in 1993, which was the largest and most widespread tax increase in the United States since 1950, and its purpose was to reduce the fiscal deficit.</p><p><b>Third, the tax burden on the wealthy will increase, while the burden on the lower and middle classes will decrease; The tax burden on enterprises will increase, but the return of manufacturing will be encouraged.</b></p><p>Biden's target audience for tax increases is very clear: wealthy individuals and businesses, while tax incentives and credits for the lower and middle classes have been increased. On the one hand, the wage tax, income tax, capital gains tax, and inheritance tax for the wealthy will be increased; on the other hand, the corporate income tax rate will be raised again, and some other corporate taxes will be adjusted.</p><p><b>IV. What impact will Biden's tariffs have on the US economy?</b></p><p>In terms of economic growth, both the Tax Foundation and the Tax Policy Center estimate that tax increases will have a negative impact on economic growth over the next decade, reducing GDP by 1.62% to 3.4% over the next decade. In terms of tax revenue, the Tax Foundation believes that tax increases could raise approximately $2.8 trillion in tax revenue over the next decade, while the Tax Policy Center estimates that tax increases will reduce federal revenue by $161 billion over the next decade (about 8% of total revenue over 10 years). In addition, the Tax Foundation expects that tax increases will lead to lower wage levels and job losses, narrowing the income gap but reducing the overall after-tax income of residents.</p><p><b>Two key timelines: When might a formal redevelopment plan be launched?</b></p><p><b>The first key time point: April-May this year.</b></p><p>When Biden proposed the \"American Relief Plan\" on January 14th of this year, he clearly stated, \"When I appear before a joint session of Congress for the first time next month, I will present my 'Recovery Plan for a Better Future.'\" Biden's reconstruction plan should have been formally proposed in February, but the pandemic was the top priority. On February 11th, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi stated, \"We will not do anything until we pass the COVID-19 relief bill.\" Because the American relief plan encountered resistance in Congress and was not officially implemented until March 14th, Biden has not yet attended the joint session of Congress, and the reconstruction plan has not been formally proposed.</p><p>When will the joint session of Congress be held? This is the key. On March 24, White House Press Secretary Psaki said that there was no set date yet. Historically, the president has attended a joint session of Congress and delivered a \"speech to a joint session of Congress\" no later than February. It is now expected overseas that Biden will officially attend a joint session of Congress in April, at which time he will introduce the reconstruction plan to lawmakers. Goldman Sachs also predicts that the White House may submit a detailed budget proposal to Congress in May. Based on statements from senior Democratic officials, they hope the infrastructure plan will pass committees under the Senate and House of Representatives in May. Therefore, we expect the total scale and specific project details of the reconstruction plan to be announced in April or May.</p><p><b>The second critical time point: October.</b></p><p>First, after October, the Democratic Party can once again initiate the \"budget reconciliation procedure\". Second, the positive statements from top Democrats indicate that they will push the reconstruction plan to a congressional vote as quickly as possible or pursue a budget reconciliation process at the beginning of the new fiscal year.</p><p>Risk warning: Disagreements arise within the Democratic Party regarding the reconstruction plan.</p><p><b>Report Directory</b></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8a2d175dd5fcc77e4928e9a8001033b8\" tg-width=\"962\" tg-height=\"739\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>Main text of the report</p><p>Following the implementation of the $1.9 trillion U.S. relief Plan, discussions about the Biden Recovery Plan (Build Back Better Recovery Plan, which is also referred to as the \"Biden Infrastructure Plan\" in relevant domestic and international reports and reports because most of its measures are related to infrastructure) quickly intensified. According to a Bloomberg report on March 22, a reconstruction plan will soon be submitted to Biden, and the plan also includes a tax increase. White House Press Secretary Psaki also stated on the 22nd, \"Time is running out, so he will discuss the options, scale, and scope with his team this week.\" According to Biden's statement when proposing the relief plan, he will present his reconstruction plan to members of Congress during his first appearance at a joint session of Congress and his \"speech to a joint session of Congress,\" so the reconstruction plan may be officially \"unveiled\" in April.</p><p>Since Biden's reconstruction plan has not yet been released, this report will use the infrastructure and tax increase plans proposed by Biden during his campaign as a blueprint for analysis.</p><p>I. Biden's Infrastructure: How to \"Build\"?</p><p>Regarding Biden's infrastructure, we mainly need to clarify four questions. First, is it necessary for the United States to invest heavily in infrastructure at this time? Second, is there any historical experience of the US government leading large-scale infrastructure investment? If so, historically, what is the scale of Biden's infrastructure investment? Third, how exactly should the specific areas and measures of the infrastructure plan be constructed? Fourth, what is the impact of infrastructure plans on the US economy?</p><p>(a) Is it necessary for the United States to build large-scale infrastructure projects at present</p><p>The current state of infrastructure in the United States is worrying, and large-scale investment is very necessary. Most of the infrastructure systems in the United States were built in the 1960s, and many facilities have reached their maximum useful life and are nearing the point of \"obsolescence\".</p><p>I. The infrastructure condition is worrying, and the overall rating is low. The American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) rated U.S. infrastructure as \"D+\" (A-F) in 2017 and upgraded to \"C-\" in 2021. Although the rating has improved, it also indicates that U.S. infrastructure is still \"mostly substandard,\" showing a more serious \"deterioration\" situation. From a global perspective, the rating of the US infrastructure sector has also been declining over the past two decades. According to the World Economic Forum's Global Competitiveness Report, the United States ranked 13th globally in infrastructure in 2019, down from 5th in 2002, a drop of 8 places in 17 years.</p><p>Second, the United States currently has a large-scale infrastructure investment gap, which, if not filled, will have a huge negative impact on economic and social development. There are two sources of assessment: 1) A 2021 report by the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) stated that the total infrastructure investment gap in the United States has reached $2.59 trillion over the next decade. If not filled, the United States will lose $10 trillion in GDP and $2.4 trillion in exports by 2039. 2) A 2016 McKinsey study estimated that $150 billion in infrastructure investment would be needed annually from 2017 to 2030 to keep up with the U.S. economy’s demand for infrastructure.</p><p>Third, the United States spends far less on infrastructure than the world's major economies and relies heavily on state and local governments. European countries spend 5% of their GDP on infrastructure construction and maintenance, while China spends an average of about 8% of its GDP on infrastructure, while the United States spends only 2.4%[1]. Furthermore, unlike most other industrialized countries, the United States relies primarily on local and state government spending to meet its infrastructure needs. Most European countries or regions fund most infrastructure construction at the national level, but in 2017, only 25% of public infrastructure funding in the United States came from the federal government. This figure is far lower than the peak of 38% in 1977, indicating that the federal government is bearing less and less responsibility for spending on public infrastructure. As the stock of infrastructure in the United States continues to increase, state and local governments have had to bear more operating and maintenance costs, which has led to a decline in new infrastructure investment since the early 2000s.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/92d1fe0e962d44eff5f6d6a13da64df6\" tg-width=\"1080\" tg-height=\"482\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/80cf9e50d231575711b16ef73e71bb98\" tg-width=\"1080\" tg-height=\"383\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>(ii) Has the federal government made large-scale infrastructure investments in history?</p><p>Since the beginning of the last century, the United States has experienced four large-scale infrastructure investments led by the federal government. Historically, Biden's infrastructure plan is the second largest federal infrastructure investment in the United States since the beginning of the last century. Since the beginning of the last century, the U.S. federal government has led four rounds of large-scale infrastructure investment. The largest investment was in Roosevelt's New Deal, which spent $18 billion on public works, accounting for 31% of GDP in 1933. The least invested was Obama's ARRA Act, which included $120 billion in infrastructure spending, accounting for 0.8% of GDP in 2009. Eisenhower spent $25 billion to build interstate highways, about 5.6% of GDP in 1956, while Clinton's Information Superhighway program totaled $400 billion, or 5.8% of GDP in 1993. Biden's campaign website announced that infrastructure spending was approximately $1.3 trillion, accounting for about 6.1% of GDP in 2019, making it the second largest investment since the last century.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/482f1bb788c01537a9201e79b2e0f4b1\" tg-width=\"804\" tg-height=\"380\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>1. Roosevelt's New Deal</p><p>Following the Great Depression, to stimulate employment recovery, Roosevelt signed the National Industrial Recovery Act of 1933, believing that extensive public works programs could directly create jobs. The establishment of agencies such as the Federal Economic Relief Administration, the Public Works Administration (PWA), and the Works Promotion Agency (WPA) has created over ten million jobs in the United States. By the eve of World War II, federal government spending on engineering and direct relief had reached $18 billion, accounting for 31% of U.S. GDP in 1933 and 14% of U.S. GDP in 1941. In terms of broad spending, Roosevelt's New Deal federal spending totaled $41.7 billion, accounting for 73% of U.S. GDP in 1933 and 32% of U.S. GDP in 1941.</p><p>Large-scale public works spending has also yielded significant results: in terms of public works, WPA's small projects include 78,000 bridges and viaducts and 572,000 miles of rural roads; In the first six years of its establishment, the PWA completed approximately 1.14 street and highway projects, totaling 37,000 miles[2]. By the eve of World War II, the United States had built nearly 1,000 airfields, more than 12,000 sports fields, and more than 800 school buildings and hospitals. In terms of employment, the WPA alone provided jobs for approximately eight million people between 1935 and 1943.</p><p>2. Eisenhower: Interstate Highway</p><p>In the 1950s, Eisenhower advocated the construction of an interstate highway system in the United States. In 1956, he signed the Federal Highway Aid Act, authorizing $25 billion to build 41,000 miles of interstate highways over a decade. This cost would be paid for by tax revenues such as gasoline taxes deposited into the Federal Highway Trust Fund, with the federal government providing about 90% of the total expenditure and the remaining 10% paid by the states. The cost of building interstate highways accounted for about 5.6% of U.S. GDP in 1956.</p><p>3. Clinton: \"Information Superhighway Plan\"</p><p>In 1992, U.S. presidential candidate Bill Clinton proposed building an information superhighway during his campaign. After Clinton took office in 1993, the \"Information Superhighway Project\" was officially implemented. The planned investment is $400 billion over 20 years to gradually lay telecommunications fiber optic cables to all home users. In 1994, the U.S. government proposed an initiative to build a global information infrastructure, which aims to connect global information networks through satellite communications and telecommunications fiber optic cables and form a competitive mechanism for information sharing[3]. The total investment in the Information Superhighway Program accounted for 5.8% of U.S. GDP in 1993.</p><p>4. Obama: ARRA Fiscal Stimulus Act</p><p>Following the financial crisis, Obama signed the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) fiscal stimulus bill in February 2009, with an initial total size of $787 billion. The Congressional Budget Office projected total spending of approximately $840 billion in 2015, of which about $120 billion was for infrastructure projects, including: $48 billion for transportation and public transportation projects, $31 billion for the modernization of federal buildings, $31 billion for the modernization of school and scientific facilities, $6 billion for water conservancy projects, and $5 billion for housing climate change projects. Infrastructure spending under the ARRA Act accounted for only 0.8% of GDP in 2009.</p><p>(iii) What are the specific measures of Biden's infrastructure plan?</p><p>1. Three key points of the infrastructure plan</p><p>The \"Building Modern, Sustainable Infrastructure and a Fair, Clean Energy Future\" plan proposed on Biden's campaign website spans 10 years and totals $2 trillion, accounting for approximately 9.3% of GDP in 2019. If we only look at infrastructure spending, it is approximately $1.3 trillion, accounting for about 6.1% of GDP in 2019. The plan published on the campaign website has two characteristics:</p><p>First, the content is very broad. The plan is not limited to traditional infrastructure and clean energy investments, but also includes new infrastructure such as smart cities and broadband, automotive industry development, building renovation and affordable housing construction, sustainable agriculture, manufacturing revitalization and SME development, and community equality and development.</p><p>Secondly, promoting employment and rebuilding the middle class are the \"main focus\". It can be said that increasing employment and rebuilding the middle class are major objectives of Biden's massive infrastructure development. In Biden's vision, the plan can significantly create new jobs. For example, investment in infrastructure will create millions of jobs, the automotive industry will create 1 million jobs, investment in the power sector will create millions of jobs, investment in construction and housing will create 1 million high-paying jobs, and agricultural protection will create 250,000 jobs.</p><p>Third, keep manufacturing in the United States. Preventing the relocation of manufacturing is inherently consistent with the need to create jobs. This statement was mentioned multiple times in the plan, for example: ensuring that automakers are encouraged to build or restructure vehicle or parts factories domestically; Invest in battery technology, but ensure that battery production is carried out domestically, etc.</p><p>In addition, it is worth noting that the specific investment amounts for each sector in the infrastructure plan are still unclear, with only a few projects proposing clear investment amounts. Because the plan was very \"rough,\" it did not have a very detailed spending plan, and only proposed investment amounts for a few projects, such as increasing federal procurement by $400 billion during the first term (the specific procurement plan was not specified). $100 billion to improve public school buildings; In his first year in office, he invested $50 billion to repair highways, roads, and bridges; Invest $20 billion to build rural broadband infrastructure and provide $60 billion to expand broadband access in rural areas; An additional $10 billion will be invested over 10 years to support transportation projects in low-income areas; A $40 billion, 10-year transformation project fund will be used to fund major infrastructure projects, among other things. The investment amount explicitly mentioned in the plan brief is only a little over $800 billion.</p><p>2. Beyond infrastructure, the plan covers eight major areas.</p><p>Overall, Biden's infrastructure plan is not limited to the \"infrastructure sector,\" but has a very broad scope, covering eight major areas: modern infrastructure, automotive industry development, clean electricity investment, building renovation and housing construction, clean energy investment, sustainable agriculture, equal community development, and manufacturing revitalization (a brief introduction is below; see the appendix for details).</p><p>First, build modern infrastructure.</p><p>1) Road repair and construction. In his first year in office, he invested $50 billion in repairing highways, roads, and bridges, and made transportation investments in remote areas. 2) The Second Railway Revolution. Invest heavily in high-speed rail, improve the passenger and freight railway systems, promote the electrification of the railway system, and reduce diesel emissions. 3) Vigorously develop public transportation. By 2030, high-quality public transportation systems will be built in cities with a population of over 100,000. Invest an additional $10 billion over 10 years to support transportation projects in low-income areas. 4) Improve the airport. Double funding for airport improvement programs, provide competitive grants for major airport renovation projects, and fully implement next-generation aviation technology systems. 5) Invest heavily in freight infrastructure, including inland waterways, freight corridors, freight railways, transit facilities and ports. Increase grants for the BUILD and INFRA transportation infrastructure grant projects from 1.8 billion to 3.5 billion annually; Add 2.5 billion yuan annually to the Army Corps of Engineers to promote the modernization of ship locks in inland waterways; Support port port infrastructure. 6) Water conservancy infrastructure construction. Replace aging pipes, double federal investment in clean drinking water and water infrastructure, monitor lead and other contaminants in water systems, and hold polluting companies accountable. Invest in water technology research and development and encourage private sector innovation. 7) New infrastructure projects: smart city construction. $1 billion annually to help five cities pilot new planning strategies and smart city technologies. Invest in broadband networks. Invest $20 billion to build rural broadband infrastructure, and $60 billion to expand broadband access in rural areas and increase the number of broadband providers participating. 8) Establish a transformation project fund. Establish a $40 billion, 10-year transformation project fund to provide assistance for large and complex infrastructure projects.</p><p>Second, it will enable the U.S. auto industry to lead the world this century and accelerate the transition to low-carbon and carbon-free vehicles.</p><p>1) Demand side: Restore the full tax credit for electric vehicles, use federal procurement to increase demand for clean vehicles, and accelerate the upgrade of 3 million government-system vehicles. The goal is to have all new buses manufactured in the United States achieve zero emissions by 2030, converting 500,000 school buses nationwide into zero-emission vehicles. 2) Encourage automakers to build or restructure vehicle or parts factories domestically. 3) Invest $5 billion in battery and energy storage technologies over five years, while ensuring that battery production is carried out domestically. 4) Establish a national charging system consisting of 500,000 public charging points, and provide an additional $1 billion annually to ensure that charging stations are installed by certified technicians. 5) Convene the U.S. Department of Energy and Transportation to coordinate special demonstration projects and provide grants to municipalities and counties willing to pilot new charging infrastructure. 6) Establish fuel economy standards to reduce air pollution.</p><p>Third, clean power investment: achieve carbon-free power generation by 2035.</p><p>1) Develop clean electricity and achieve carbon-free power generation by 2035. 2) Vigorously develop the power grid, promote market reforms, and expand the regional electricity market. 3) Establish energy efficiency and clean electricity standards (EECES) for utilities and grid operators; 4) Upgrade transmission lines to support a larger regional electricity market and promote large-scale energy storage demonstration projects. 5) Research investment and tax incentives for carbon capture, permanent storage, and utilization of carbon capture technologies will be doubled.</p><p>Fourth, building renovation to improve building energy efficiency.</p><p>1) Promote school modernization. Invest $100 billion to improve public school buildings and upgrade child care and early learning facilities across the country. 2) Building energy-saving renovation. Within four years, 4 million commercial buildings will be upgraded and 2 million households will undergo energy-saving renovations. Promote the electrification of the construction industry and increase investment in energy-saving renovation projects for low-income housing and key technologies such as electric heat pumps; Construction of net-zero carbon federal buildings, etc. 3) The carbon footprint of U.S. building stock will be reduced by half by 2035. 4) Promote the construction of 1.5 million public housing units and inject more funds into low-income communities to promote the construction of affordable housing and the development of small businesses.</p><p>Fifth, make historic investments in clean energy innovation.</p><p>1) Increase federal procurement by $400 billion during the first term, with a focus on purchasing key clean energy inputs such as batteries and electric vehicles. 2) Focus on strategic research areas such as clean energy, clean transportation, clean industrial processes and clean materials over the next four years. 3) Strengthen and build key clean energy supply chains in the United States, address issues such as dependence on rare earth minerals, and accelerate innovation in supply chain resilience. 4) Invest heavily in national laboratories, high-performance computing facilities, and other critical infrastructure.</p><p>Sixth, invest in sustainable agriculture and environmental protection.</p><p>1) Through grassroots climate organizations, call on and mobilize a new generation of Americans to engage in environmental protection and climate change response. 2) Make preliminary investments to clean up the damage and impact of past resource extraction on the environment. 3) Maintain American farms and ranches. Provide low-cost funding for farmers to transition to new equipment and methods, fund research and development in precision agriculture and new crops, and establish a voluntary carbon agriculture market; Pursuing pro-worker and pro-family peasant trade policies; Strengthening food supply security and resilience; Ensure fair competition among small and medium-sized farms, etc.</p><p>Seventh, community equality and development.</p><p>1) Provide $5 billion annually to expand the new market tax credit and make the program permanent; 2) Provide double funding to the Community Development Financial Institutions Fund to support financial institutions in low-income areas. 3) Establish a $10 billion urban revitalization fund to carry out creative revitalization projects in struggling cities. 4) Funding anchor institutions in impoverished areas (referring to hospitals, colleges and universities, as well as government administrative agencies, etc.). 5) Fully implement the \"10-20-30 Plan\" (allocating 10% of all federal programs to counties where 20% or more of the population has lived below the poverty line in the past 30 years).</p><p>Eighth, revitalize the country's manufacturing industry and small and medium-sized enterprises.</p><p>1) Revitalize the manufacturing industry. Quadruple funding for the Manufacturing Expansion Partnership Project to provide technical support to small manufacturers in global competition; Develop low-carbon manufacturing in each state; Use tax credits and subsidies to help businesses upgrade equipment and processes, invest in expanding or building new factories, and deploy low-carbon technologies; Provide funding for more competitive or low-carbon manufacturing industries, etc. 2) Promote the development of small and medium-sized enterprises Extend the National Small Business Credit Initiative program to 2025, and increase federal funding to $3 billion; Provide $5 billion to states to develop policies that encourage small business startups, such as supporting technology transfer from public universities to the private sector.</p><p>(iv) What is the impact of Biden's infrastructure on the US economy?</p><p>How should the impact of infrastructure spending on the economy be assessed? We can draw on past assessments of infrastructure effectiveness by American academia and think tanks: 1) A 2014 study by the University of Maryland showed that every $1 spent on public transportation infrastructure investment increases GDP by about $3, with a greater impact during economic recessions. 2) According to a 2014 report by the University of Chicago, an $83 billion infrastructure investment plan—roughly equivalent to 0.6% of GDP—will create 1.7 million jobs in the first three years. 3) According to estimates by global consulting firm McKinsey & Company, every 1 percentage point of GDP increase in U.S. infrastructure spending will create 1.5 million jobs for the economy. 4) The Economic Policy Institute estimates that the return on investment in infrastructure is very high. A review of dozens of infrastructure studies shows that every $100 spent... in the long run will increase private sector output by $13 (median) and $17 (average), respectively. 5) According to the U.S. Congressional Budget Office's (CBO) assessment of Obama's ARRA Act, the output multiplier for infrastructure is between 0.4 and 2.2.</p><p>We can draw on the assessment results of infrastructure effects from American academia and think tanks to roughly estimate the overall impact of Biden's infrastructure plan on the US economy and employment.</p><p>1) Impact on GDP: Biden's infrastructure plan identifies infrastructure spending of approximately $1.3 trillion, with an investment cycle of 10 years, averaging about $130 billion per year, accounting for about 0.6% of GDP in 2019. Estimated based on an output multiplier of 0.4-3 (combined with the output multiplier estimated by the University of Maryland and the CBO), the additional output contribution to GDP over the next ten years will be approximately $52 billion to $390 billion, which is about 0.2% to 1.8% of the nominal GDP in 2019.</p><p>2) Impact on employment: According to the University of Chicago's employment impact estimate, $1.3 trillion in infrastructure spending will create more than 2 million jobs annually over the next decade. According to McKinsey's assessment, it is estimated that approximately 10 million jobs will be created over the next decade. The job impact estimated in the Biden team's plan brief is to create more than 10 million jobs. In summary, Biden's reconstruction plan could create more than 10 million jobs in the United States over the next decade.</p><p>3) Bank of America estimated in a report that Biden’s $2 trillion infrastructure plan could bring 2% to 9% GDP growth in the short term and “significant growth” in the long term, and that every 1% increase in U.S. GDP growth would bring about 3% to 4% growth in the earnings of S&P 500 companies[4].</p><p>II. Biden's Tax Increase: How Will It Be</p><p>Similarly, let's understand Biden's tax increases from four perspectives. First, is Biden certain he wants to raise taxes, and what is the purpose of raising taxes? Second, is there any precedent for raising taxes in American history? Third, how does Biden plan to raise taxes? Fourth, what impact will the tax increase have on the US economy?</p><p>(a) Is Biden determined to raise taxes? What is the purpose?</p><p>Will Biden raise taxes? Tax increases should be a certainty. First, Biden clearly proposed a tax increase plan during his campaign, which was one of his campaign slogans, and it is highly likely that he will implement it. Second, Biden's campaign website states that up to $1.3 trillion in infrastructure investment will be funded entirely by \"ensuring that the super-rich and corporations pay their fair share of taxes.\" Third, Treasury Secretary Yellen has stated that part of the spending for the next bill (referring to Biden's reconstruction plan bill) will be raised by tax increases.</p><p>Biden's tax hikes have three purposes: first, to raise funds for reconstruction programs; second, to fulfill campaign promises; and third, to promote tax fairness through tax system adjustments and to adjust the wealth gap through redistribution. It is clear from the tax system adjustments that the tax burden on the wealthy, high-income groups, and businesses has increased, while the tax credits for low- and middle-income earners have expanded significantly.</p><p>(ii) Are there any precedents for tax increases?</p><p>Before 1950, the highest marginal rates of personal income tax and corporate income tax in the United States both showed a gradual upward trend. During this period, the main reason for tax increases was to raise funds for war. During World War I and World War II, the highest marginal rates of personal income tax and corporate income tax rose significantly. Since the 1950s, the highest marginal tax rates for personal income tax and corporate income tax in the United States have generally shown a gradual downward trend, with many periods of tax cuts and very few periods of tax increases.</p><p>There have been five major tax cuts since 1950: the Kennedy tax cuts in 1963, the Carter tax cuts in 1979, the Reagan tax cuts in the 1980s, the George W. Bush tax cuts in 2001, and the Trump tax cuts in 2017.</p><p>The most obvious tax increases since 1950 have been three.</p><p>The first time was in the late 1960s. The main reason for the tax increase was still war factors. From 1968 to 1970, in order to cover the expenses of the Vietnam War, the United States levied the \"Vietnam War Surcharge,\" which was abolished after 1970.</p><p>The second instance was in 1990, when George H.W. Bush passed the Oversight Budget Reconciliation Act of 1990 to cope with the increased deficit caused by the sharp rise in public spending on defense and healthcare, raising the highest marginal personal income tax rate from 28% to 31%.</p><p>The third was Clinton's tax increase in 1993, which was also the largest and most widespread tax increase in the United States since 1950. To reduce the fiscal deficit, Clinton proposed a tax increase plan in 1993, raising the top marginal personal income tax rate from 31% to 39.6% and the top marginal corporate income tax rate from 34% to 35%. It is worth noting that the increase in the highest marginal personal income tax rate from 35% to 39.6% in 2012 was not due to tax increases, but rather because the Bush tax cuts had expired, and the tax rate automatically returned to the level before the tax cuts.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/059fc482c64a72c92006019e12fd347f\" tg-width=\"819\" tg-height=\"450\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9a271519721bfe2d2e70b5c022a30421\" tg-width=\"1080\" tg-height=\"683\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>(iii) How does Biden plan to raise taxes?</p><p>Biden's tax increases mainly focus on two aspects:<b>First, wage tax, income tax, capital gains tax, and inheritance tax for high-income groups; second, the corporate income tax rate will be raised again, and some corporate taxes will be adjusted.</b>As can be seen from the specific details of the following clauses, Biden's targets for tax increases are very clear: wealthy groups and businesses, while tax incentives and credits for the lower and middle classes of society have been increased.</p><p>1. Individual tax system adjustment: The tax burden on the wealthy increases, while the burden on the lower and middle classes decreases.</p><p>1) A 12.4% Social Security payroll tax would be levied on people earning more than $400,000 a year, split equally between employers and employees. Under the pioneering tax law, individuals with annual incomes above 137,700 do not need to pay Social Security payroll tax.</p><p>2) Raise the maximum personal income tax rate for taxable income exceeding $400,000 from the current 37% to 39.6%; For groups with an annual income exceeding $400,000, even with tax incentives for itemized deductions, their personal income tax rate must not be lower than 28%. Restore the \"Pease Limit\" on item deductions for taxable income exceeding $400,000; For groups with taxable income exceeding $400,000, the eligible business income deduction will be gradually eliminated.</p><p>3) Tax long-term capital gains and qualified Dividend income exceeding US$1 million at an ordinary income tax rate of 39.6%, eliminating the progressive nature of capital gains tax.</p><p>4) Tax credits: Expand the labor income tax credit for employees aged 65 and above without children, and provide individuals with tax credits related to renewable energy; Expand the Child and Dependent Tax Credit (CDCTC) from a maximum of $3,000 to $8,000 ($16,000 for multiple dependents) and increase the maximum reimbursement rate from 35% to 50%. In 2021, the Child Tax Credit (CTC) for children aged 17 and under will be increased from a maximum of $2,000 to $3,000, while an additional $600 credit will be provided for children under 6, with the CTC being fully refunded. It is worth mentioning that the measures regarding CTC have been implemented in the 1.9 trillion relief plan; Rebuild the first-time homebuyer tax credit policy, providing a $15,000 tax credit for first-time homebuyers.</p><p>5) Restore the rates and exemptions for inheritance tax and gift tax to the levels of 2009. Following Trump's tax reform in 2017, the estate and gift tax exemption for 2018-2025 was increased from $5 million to $10 million per person, while the tax rate remained at 40%. If it returns to 2009 levels, the tax allowance will be reduced from the current 10 million to 3.5 million, and the tax rate will increase from 40% to 45%.</p><p>6) Other adjustments lacking clear information: Replace traditional deductions by providing refundable tax credits to balance the tax benefits of traditional retirement accounts (such as 401(k) and individual retirement accounts); Abolish certain provisions of the real estate tax; Expanding the Affordable Care Act premium tax credit; Create a refundable tenant tax credit and provide a credit of no more than $5 billion per year, aiming to keep rent and utility bills below 30% of tenants' monthly income; Increase the amount of housing tax credits for low-income earners.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ee544b934d79e80772ee93dede7fba86\" tg-width=\"954\" tg-height=\"583\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c55ac12a24c96f38ba548d45117f82cb\" tg-width=\"945\" tg-height=\"759\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>2. Corporate tax system adjustment: Tax burden increases, but manufacturing is encouraged to return.</p><p>1) Raise the corporate income tax rate from 21% to 28%.</p><p>2) Impose a minimum tax on companies with book profits exceeding $100 million. The minimum tax is an alternative tax – businesses will pay the higher of regular corporate income tax or the 15% minimum tax, while still allowing net operating loss (NOL) and foreign tax credits.</p><p>3) Double the Global Intangible Low Tax Income Tax rate for overseas subsidiaries of U.S. companies from 10.5% to 21%. It is proposed to conduct a country-by-country assessment of GILTI of overseas subsidiaries and remove the provision that treats GILTI below 10% of qualified corporate asset investments (QBAI) as a return exemption.</p><p>Prior to the 2017 tax reform, the United States generally taxed the global income of its companies and residents. U.S. companies could apply to defer taxation on the active business income of their overseas subsidiaries until the income was repatriated to the United States as Dividend. Following tax reform, the United States exempted earnings from active operations of U.S. companies' overseas subsidiaries, meaning they would not be taxed even if these earnings were repatriated (but passive investment income from foreign subsidiaries would still be taxed). The U.S. Congress, concerned that a complete exemption for multinational corporations' foreign income could exacerbate their practice of shifting profits to low-tax jurisdictions overseas, imposed a minimum tax rate of 10.5% on low-tax income from global intangible assets to prevent profit shifting. GILTI refers to revenue generated from intangible assets such as patents, trademarks, and copyrights. Intangible assets are highly mobile, and this tax rate attempts to prevent U.S. companies from transferring intangible assets overseas.</p><p>4) Tax credits: Establish tax credits for the manufacturing sector; Expand tax credits for new markets and make them permanent; Provide tax credits for small businesses that adopt workplace retirement savings plans; Expand tax credits related to renewable energy, including those for carbon capture, use, and storage, as well as those for residential energy efficiency, and restore the Energy Investment Tax Credit (ITC) and Electric Vehicle Tax Credit, ending tax subsidies for fossil fuels.</p><p>5) Other adjustments lacking clear information: A 10% surtax will be imposed on companies that \"transfer manufacturing and service jobs overseas in order to sell products or provide services to the U.S. market.\" A priority 10% Made in America tax credit is provided for activities that resume production, revitalize closed or soon-to-be-closed facilities, restructure facilities to promote manufacturing employment, or expand manufacturing wage scales.</p><p>(iv) The impact of Biden's tariffs on the US economy</p><p>The impact of tariffs on the economy is quite complex. We mainly rely on assessments by overseas think tanks to gain a general understanding of the impact of Biden's tariffs on the US economy.<b>In terms of economic growth, both the Tax Foundation and the Tax Policy Center estimate that tax increases will have a negative impact on economic growth over the next decade, reducing GDP by 1.62% to 3.4% over the next decade. In terms of tax revenue, the Tax Foundation believes that tax increases could raise approximately $2.8 trillion in tax revenue over the next decade, while the Tax Policy Center estimates that tax increases will reduce federal revenue by $161 billion over the next decade (about 8% of total revenue over those 10 years).</b>In addition, the Tax Foundation expects that tax increases will lead to lower wage levels and job losses, narrowing the income gap but reducing the overall after-tax income of residents.</p><p>1. Tax Foundation estimates</p><p>1) Impact of fiscal revenue: Biden’s tax plan will raise approximately $2.8 trillion over the next 10 years. 2) Economic impact: Over the next decade, it will reduce GDP by a total of 1.62%, GNP by a total of 1.83%, reduce the capital stock by 3.75%, reduce the long-term average wage level by 1.15%, and cause the loss of 542,000 jobs. 3) Impact of income distribution: Biden’s tax plan will reduce the after-tax income of the richest 1% of taxpayers by about 7.7% by 2030, and the average after-tax income of all taxpayers will decrease by 1.9%.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/92310243b616c89248067f2f1a18ffc3\" tg-width=\"1080\" tg-height=\"475\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>2. Tax Policy Center</p><p>1) Economic impact: This will reduce the total US GDP by 3.4% over the next decade. The impact on GDP will turn positive in 2040, and the positive impact will gradually increase in the years after 2040. 2) Revenue impact: This will reduce U.S. federal revenue by $161 billion from 2021 to 2030 (approximately 8% of total revenue over those 10 years) and by $90 billion from 2031 to 2040. By 2040, the impact of the tax plan on federal revenue will turn positive, and its positive effect will gradually increase in the following years of 2040.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0b75c8d26db2d05446f6e6db4dec6a9a\" tg-width=\"944\" tg-height=\"470\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3d0a76e285bdc0d17be49c9ec0fbade5\" tg-width=\"951\" tg-height=\"364\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>III. Key Timeline: When might the formal reconstruction plan be launched?</p><p>Currently, the Biden team has not released a formal plan or investment details. To track Biden's reconstruction plan, there are two key timelines worth paying attention to:</p><p><b>The first key time point: April-May this year.</b></p><p>When Biden first proposed the \"American Relief Plan\" on January 14 this year, he clearly stated: \"Next month, when I attend my first joint session of Congress, I will propose my 'Recovery Plan for a Better Future'[5].\" Under normal circumstances, Biden's reconstruction plan should have been formally proposed in February, but the pandemic was the top priority. On February 11, House Speaker Pelosi said, \"We will not do anything until we pass the COVID-19 relief bill.\" Because the American relief plan encountered resistance in Congress and was not officially implemented until March 14, Biden has not yet attended the joint session of Congress, and the reconstruction plan has not been formally proposed.</p><p>When will the joint session of Congress be held? This is the key. On March 24, White House Press Secretary Psaki stated, \"There is no set date yet... We are certainly still interested in committing to a joint meeting. We will stay in touch with them, but I don't know the specific time.\" Historically, the latest time a president has attended a joint session of Congress and delivered a \"speech to a joint session of Congress\" is no later than February. It is now expected that Biden will officially attend a joint session of Congress in April[6], at which time he will introduce the reconstruction plan to lawmakers. Goldman Sachs also predicts that the White House may submit a detailed budget proposal to Congress in May. Based on statements from senior Democratic officials, they hope the infrastructure plan will pass committees under the Senate and House of Representatives in May. Therefore, we expect the total scale and specific project details of the reconstruction plan to be announced in April or May.</p><p><b>The second critical time point: October.</b></p><p>The launch and implementation of Biden's reconstruction plan requires the approval of the U.S. Congress. Currently, Democrats control the House of Representatives and can easily pass bills there. However, the Democrats only have a slight advantage in the Senate, with only one more vote than the Republicans, and cannot bypass the Senate's \"filibuster\" (60 votes are required). There are only two ways for Biden's reconstruction plan to pass the Senate. One is to secure the support of at least 10 more Republican senators, provided that all Democratic senators agree. Second, the budget reconciliation process will be reactivated, consistent with the congressional process followed by the $1.9 trillion U.S. relief plan, requiring only 51 votes to pass the Senate.</p><p>Based on current statements from senior Republican Senate officials, the feasibility of the first option is extremely low. Senate Republican Leader McConnell said on Monday, \"We've heard that a so-called infrastructure bill may be introduced in the coming months, which could actually be a Trojan horse containing significant tax increases and other left-wing policies that harm jobs.\"</p><p>For Biden's reconstruction plan to be implemented, the most likely outcome is to initiate a budget reconciliation process. The U.S. fiscal year runs from October to September of the following year, and the budget reconciliation process can generally only be used once in a fiscal year (originally, the three areas of revenue, expenditure, and deficit each had one opportunity to initiate the budget reconciliation process each fiscal year, but bills generally cover more than one area, and historically, the budget reconciliation process can only be used once in a fiscal year at most). This year, the $1.9 trillion U.S. relief plan has already used the \"quota\" from fiscal year 2021. If the budget reconciliation process is to be initiated again, it will have to wait until the start of fiscal year 2022. October is the second crucial time. First, by October, the Democratic Party can once again initiate the \"budget reconciliation process.\" Secondly, judging from the statements of Democratic lawmakers, they hope to quickly pass the reconstruction plan bill. For example, House Speaker Pelosi hopes that Congress will take swift action to develop a transformative infrastructure plan.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b55345e7966f98cb44655e2ee1d5f0ea\" tg-width=\"1080\" tg-height=\"379\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>Appendix IV: Details of Biden's Reconstruction Plan</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2aeb3bd2d6946393ea99fee60d03300f\" tg-width=\"805\" tg-height=\"614\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/118a22c23672c23b7ffdaff2e00b0f9b\" tg-width=\"805\" tg-height=\"423\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1fd4d7b6dfaec3e2161aa5abc88d706f\" tg-width=\"804\" tg-height=\"522\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ee04e29c93d385e9e3f0123b9a2a6941\" tg-width=\"804\" tg-height=\"430\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6a302cf76ac1ec43059d2ec6818aa587\" tg-width=\"806\" tg-height=\"425\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>","source":"lsy1584436024241","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>A detailed explanation of Biden's reconstruction plan: How to build it?

Since the plan has not yet been officially announced, this report uses Biden's infrastructure and tax increase plans proposed during his campaign as a blueprint to understand Biden's infrastructure and tax increases from four perspectives (necessity, historical comparison, specific measures, and impact), in order to gain a general understanding of the measures and impact of the formal reconstruction plan in the future.</p><p>Biden's infrastructure: How to build it?</p><p><b>1. Is it necessary for the United States to invest heavily in infrastructure at present?</b></p><p>It is absolutely necessary. First, the state of infrastructure is worrying. According to ASCE's latest assessment, U.S. infrastructure remains \"mostly substandard,\" indicating a serious \"deterioration.\" According to the Global Competitiveness Report, the United States ranked 13th globally in infrastructure in 2019, up from 5th in 2002. Secondly, there is a large investment gap. The total infrastructure investment gap over the next decade has reached $2.59 trillion. Finally, infrastructure spending is far lower than that of major economies. Europe's infrastructure spending is equivalent to 5% of GDP, China's infrastructure spending is about 8% of GDP, and the United States' is only 2.4%. The United States mainly relies on local and state governments for infrastructure investment, but local governments are gradually \"unable to keep up\". As infrastructure stock continues to grow, state and local governments have had to bear more operating and maintenance costs, and new investment has been declining since the beginning of the 21st century.</p><p><b>II. Are there any precedents for the federal government leading infrastructure investment?</b></p><p>Historically, Biden's infrastructure investment is the second largest federal infrastructure investment in the United States since the last century. Since the beginning of the last century, the U.S. federal government has led four rounds of large-scale infrastructure investment, with the largest investment being the Roosevelt New Deal, which spent $18 billion on public works, accounting for 31% of GDP in 1933. The least invested was Obama's ARRA Act, which spent $120 billion on infrastructure, accounting for 0.8% of GDP in 2009. Eisenhower spent $25 billion to build interstate highways, accounting for 5.6% of GDP in 1956, while Clinton's information superhighway program cost a total of $400 billion, accounting for 5.8% of GDP in 1993. Biden's infrastructure investment amounted to approximately $1.3 trillion, accounting for 6.1% of GDP in 2019, making it the second largest investment since the last century.</p><p><b>III. What are Biden's specific infrastructure measures?</b></p><p>The plan proposed on Biden's campaign website is $2 trillion over 10 years, representing 9.3% of 2019 GDP. Infrastructure investment amounted to $1.3 trillion, accounting for 6.1% of GDP in 2019. The plan has three key points: 1) The content is very broad. It covers eight major areas: modern infrastructure, automotive industry development, clean power investment, building renovation and housing construction, clean energy investment, sustainable agriculture, equal community development, and manufacturing revitalization. 2) Promoting employment and rebuilding the middle class are the \"main focus\". 3) Keep manufacturing in the United States. The need to prevent manufacturing relocation is inherently consistent with the need to create jobs. It should be noted that the investment amounts for each sector in the plan are not yet clear, and only a few projects have proposed specific investment amounts.</p><p><b>IV. What impact will Biden's infrastructure projects have on the US economy?</b></p><p>1) Impact on GDP: Over 10 years, infrastructure spending will be approximately $130 billion annually. Estimated based on an output multiplier of 0.4-3 (assessed by the University of Maryland and the CBO), the additional output contribution to GDP will be approximately $52 billion to $390 billion annually, which is about 0.2% to 1.8% of the nominal GDP in 2019. 2) Impact on employment: Biden's reconstruction plan may create more than 10 million jobs in the United States over the next decade. 3) Bank of America estimates that Biden’s infrastructure plan may bring 2% to 9% GDP growth in the short term and “significant” GDP growth in the long term.</p><p>Biden raises taxes: How?</p><p><b>First, Biden's tax increase is almost certain.</b></p><p>Three reasons: 1) Tax increases are one of Biden's campaign slogans, and they are likely to be implemented. 2) Biden's campaign website explicitly states that the $1.3 trillion in infrastructure investment will be raised entirely by \"ensuring that the super-rich and corporations pay their fair share of (taxes).\" 3) Treasury Secretary Yellen has stated that part of the spending for the next bill (Biden's reconstruction plan) will be raised by tax increases.</p><p><b>Second, there are precedents for raising taxes.</b></p><p>Since the 1950s, the income tax rate in the United States has generally shown a downward trend, with more tax cuts and fewer tax increases. There were three major tax increases. The first was the \"Vietnam War Surcharge\" levied from 1968 to 1970 to cover the expenses of the Vietnam War. Second, in 1990, George H.W. Bush raised taxes to cope with the growing deficit. Third, Clinton raised taxes in 1993, which was the largest and most widespread tax increase in the United States since 1950, and its purpose was to reduce the fiscal deficit.</p><p><b>Third, the tax burden on the wealthy will increase, while the burden on the lower and middle classes will decrease; The tax burden on enterprises will increase, but the return of manufacturing will be encouraged.</b></p><p>Biden's target audience for tax increases is very clear: wealthy individuals and businesses, while tax incentives and credits for the lower and middle classes have been increased. On the one hand, the wage tax, income tax, capital gains tax, and inheritance tax for the wealthy will be increased; on the other hand, the corporate income tax rate will be raised again, and some other corporate taxes will be adjusted.</p><p><b>IV. What impact will Biden's tariffs have on the US economy?</b></p><p>In terms of economic growth, both the Tax Foundation and the Tax Policy Center estimate that tax increases will have a negative impact on economic growth over the next decade, reducing GDP by 1.62% to 3.4% over the next decade. In terms of tax revenue, the Tax Foundation believes that tax increases could raise approximately $2.8 trillion in tax revenue over the next decade, while the Tax Policy Center estimates that tax increases will reduce federal revenue by $161 billion over the next decade (about 8% of total revenue over 10 years). In addition, the Tax Foundation expects that tax increases will lead to lower wage levels and job losses, narrowing the income gap but reducing the overall after-tax income of residents.</p><p><b>Two key timelines: When might a formal redevelopment plan be launched?</b></p><p><b>The first key time point: April-May this year.</b></p><p>When Biden proposed the \"American Relief Plan\" on January 14th of this year, he clearly stated, \"When I appear before a joint session of Congress for the first time next month, I will present my 'Recovery Plan for a Better Future.'\" Biden's reconstruction plan should have been formally proposed in February, but the pandemic was the top priority. On February 11th, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi stated, \"We will not do anything until we pass the COVID-19 relief bill.\" Because the American relief plan encountered resistance in Congress and was not officially implemented until March 14th, Biden has not yet attended the joint session of Congress, and the reconstruction plan has not been formally proposed.</p><p>When will the joint session of Congress be held? This is the key. On March 24, White House Press Secretary Psaki said that there was no set date yet. Historically, the president has attended a joint session of Congress and delivered a \"speech to a joint session of Congress\" no later than February. It is now expected overseas that Biden will officially attend a joint session of Congress in April, at which time he will introduce the reconstruction plan to lawmakers. Goldman Sachs also predicts that the White House may submit a detailed budget proposal to Congress in May. Based on statements from senior Democratic officials, they hope the infrastructure plan will pass committees under the Senate and House of Representatives in May. Therefore, we expect the total scale and specific project details of the reconstruction plan to be announced in April or May.</p><p><b>The second critical time point: October.</b></p><p>First, after October, the Democratic Party can once again initiate the \"budget reconciliation procedure\". Second, the positive statements from top Democrats indicate that they will push the reconstruction plan to a congressional vote as quickly as possible or pursue a budget reconciliation process at the beginning of the new fiscal year.</p><p>Risk warning: Disagreements arise within the Democratic Party regarding the reconstruction plan.</p><p><b>Report Directory</b></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8a2d175dd5fcc77e4928e9a8001033b8\" tg-width=\"962\" tg-height=\"739\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>Main text of the report</p><p>Following the implementation of the $1.9 trillion U.S. relief Plan, discussions about the Biden Recovery Plan (Build Back Better Recovery Plan, which is also referred to as the \"Biden Infrastructure Plan\" in relevant domestic and international reports and reports because most of its measures are related to infrastructure) quickly intensified. According to a Bloomberg report on March 22, a reconstruction plan will soon be submitted to Biden, and the plan also includes a tax increase. White House Press Secretary Psaki also stated on the 22nd, \"Time is running out, so he will discuss the options, scale, and scope with his team this week.\" According to Biden's statement when proposing the relief plan, he will present his reconstruction plan to members of Congress during his first appearance at a joint session of Congress and his \"speech to a joint session of Congress,\" so the reconstruction plan may be officially \"unveiled\" in April.</p><p>Since Biden's reconstruction plan has not yet been released, this report will use the infrastructure and tax increase plans proposed by Biden during his campaign as a blueprint for analysis.</p><p>I. Biden's Infrastructure: How to \"Build\"?</p><p>Regarding Biden's infrastructure, we mainly need to clarify four questions. First, is it necessary for the United States to invest heavily in infrastructure at this time? Second, is there any historical experience of the US government leading large-scale infrastructure investment? If so, historically, what is the scale of Biden's infrastructure investment? Third, how exactly should the specific areas and measures of the infrastructure plan be constructed? Fourth, what is the impact of infrastructure plans on the US economy?</p><p>(a) Is it necessary for the United States to build large-scale infrastructure projects at present</p><p>The current state of infrastructure in the United States is worrying, and large-scale investment is very necessary. Most of the infrastructure systems in the United States were built in the 1960s, and many facilities have reached their maximum useful life and are nearing the point of \"obsolescence\".</p><p>I. The infrastructure condition is worrying, and the overall rating is low. The American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) rated U.S. infrastructure as \"D+\" (A-F) in 2017 and upgraded to \"C-\" in 2021. Although the rating has improved, it also indicates that U.S. infrastructure is still \"mostly substandard,\" showing a more serious \"deterioration\" situation. From a global perspective, the rating of the US infrastructure sector has also been declining over the past two decades. According to the World Economic Forum's Global Competitiveness Report, the United States ranked 13th globally in infrastructure in 2019, down from 5th in 2002, a drop of 8 places in 17 years.</p><p>Second, the United States currently has a large-scale infrastructure investment gap, which, if not filled, will have a huge negative impact on economic and social development. There are two sources of assessment: 1) A 2021 report by the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) stated that the total infrastructure investment gap in the United States has reached $2.59 trillion over the next decade. If not filled, the United States will lose $10 trillion in GDP and $2.4 trillion in exports by 2039. 2) A 2016 McKinsey study estimated that $150 billion in infrastructure investment would be needed annually from 2017 to 2030 to keep up with the U.S. economy’s demand for infrastructure.</p><p>Third, the United States spends far less on infrastructure than the world's major economies and relies heavily on state and local governments. European countries spend 5% of their GDP on infrastructure construction and maintenance, while China spends an average of about 8% of its GDP on infrastructure, while the United States spends only 2.4%[1]. Furthermore, unlike most other industrialized countries, the United States relies primarily on local and state government spending to meet its infrastructure needs. Most European countries or regions fund most infrastructure construction at the national level, but in 2017, only 25% of public infrastructure funding in the United States came from the federal government. This figure is far lower than the peak of 38% in 1977, indicating that the federal government is bearing less and less responsibility for spending on public infrastructure. As the stock of infrastructure in the United States continues to increase, state and local governments have had to bear more operating and maintenance costs, which has led to a decline in new infrastructure investment since the early 2000s.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/92d1fe0e962d44eff5f6d6a13da64df6\" tg-width=\"1080\" tg-height=\"482\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/80cf9e50d231575711b16ef73e71bb98\" tg-width=\"1080\" tg-height=\"383\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>(ii) Has the federal government made large-scale infrastructure investments in history?</p><p>Since the beginning of the last century, the United States has experienced four large-scale infrastructure investments led by the federal government. Historically, Biden's infrastructure plan is the second largest federal infrastructure investment in the United States since the beginning of the last century. Since the beginning of the last century, the U.S. federal government has led four rounds of large-scale infrastructure investment. The largest investment was in Roosevelt's New Deal, which spent $18 billion on public works, accounting for 31% of GDP in 1933. The least invested was Obama's ARRA Act, which included $120 billion in infrastructure spending, accounting for 0.8% of GDP in 2009. Eisenhower spent $25 billion to build interstate highways, about 5.6% of GDP in 1956, while Clinton's Information Superhighway program totaled $400 billion, or 5.8% of GDP in 1993. Biden's campaign website announced that infrastructure spending was approximately $1.3 trillion, accounting for about 6.1% of GDP in 2019, making it the second largest investment since the last century.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/482f1bb788c01537a9201e79b2e0f4b1\" tg-width=\"804\" tg-height=\"380\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>1. Roosevelt's New Deal</p><p>Following the Great Depression, to stimulate employment recovery, Roosevelt signed the National Industrial Recovery Act of 1933, believing that extensive public works programs could directly create jobs. The establishment of agencies such as the Federal Economic Relief Administration, the Public Works Administration (PWA), and the Works Promotion Agency (WPA) has created over ten million jobs in the United States. By the eve of World War II, federal government spending on engineering and direct relief had reached $18 billion, accounting for 31% of U.S. GDP in 1933 and 14% of U.S. GDP in 1941. In terms of broad spending, Roosevelt's New Deal federal spending totaled $41.7 billion, accounting for 73% of U.S. GDP in 1933 and 32% of U.S. GDP in 1941.</p><p>Large-scale public works spending has also yielded significant results: in terms of public works, WPA's small projects include 78,000 bridges and viaducts and 572,000 miles of rural roads; In the first six years of its establishment, the PWA completed approximately 1.14 street and highway projects, totaling 37,000 miles[2]. By the eve of World War II, the United States had built nearly 1,000 airfields, more than 12,000 sports fields, and more than 800 school buildings and hospitals. In terms of employment, the WPA alone provided jobs for approximately eight million people between 1935 and 1943.</p><p>2. Eisenhower: Interstate Highway</p><p>In the 1950s, Eisenhower advocated the construction of an interstate highway system in the United States. In 1956, he signed the Federal Highway Aid Act, authorizing $25 billion to build 41,000 miles of interstate highways over a decade. This cost would be paid for by tax revenues such as gasoline taxes deposited into the Federal Highway Trust Fund, with the federal government providing about 90% of the total expenditure and the remaining 10% paid by the states. The cost of building interstate highways accounted for about 5.6% of U.S. GDP in 1956.</p><p>3. Clinton: \"Information Superhighway Plan\"</p><p>In 1992, U.S. presidential candidate Bill Clinton proposed building an information superhighway during his campaign. After Clinton took office in 1993, the \"Information Superhighway Project\" was officially implemented. The planned investment is $400 billion over 20 years to gradually lay telecommunications fiber optic cables to all home users. In 1994, the U.S. government proposed an initiative to build a global information infrastructure, which aims to connect global information networks through satellite communications and telecommunications fiber optic cables and form a competitive mechanism for information sharing[3]. The total investment in the Information Superhighway Program accounted for 5.8% of U.S. GDP in 1993.</p><p>4. Obama: ARRA Fiscal Stimulus Act</p><p>Following the financial crisis, Obama signed the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) fiscal stimulus bill in February 2009, with an initial total size of $787 billion. The Congressional Budget Office projected total spending of approximately $840 billion in 2015, of which about $120 billion was for infrastructure projects, including: $48 billion for transportation and public transportation projects, $31 billion for the modernization of federal buildings, $31 billion for the modernization of school and scientific facilities, $6 billion for water conservancy projects, and $5 billion for housing climate change projects. Infrastructure spending under the ARRA Act accounted for only 0.8% of GDP in 2009.</p><p>(iii) What are the specific measures of Biden's infrastructure plan?</p><p>1. Three key points of the infrastructure plan</p><p>The \"Building Modern, Sustainable Infrastructure and a Fair, Clean Energy Future\" plan proposed on Biden's campaign website spans 10 years and totals $2 trillion, accounting for approximately 9.3% of GDP in 2019. If we only look at infrastructure spending, it is approximately $1.3 trillion, accounting for about 6.1% of GDP in 2019. The plan published on the campaign website has two characteristics:</p><p>First, the content is very broad. The plan is not limited to traditional infrastructure and clean energy investments, but also includes new infrastructure such as smart cities and broadband, automotive industry development, building renovation and affordable housing construction, sustainable agriculture, manufacturing revitalization and SME development, and community equality and development.</p><p>Secondly, promoting employment and rebuilding the middle class are the \"main focus\". It can be said that increasing employment and rebuilding the middle class are major objectives of Biden's massive infrastructure development. In Biden's vision, the plan can significantly create new jobs. For example, investment in infrastructure will create millions of jobs, the automotive industry will create 1 million jobs, investment in the power sector will create millions of jobs, investment in construction and housing will create 1 million high-paying jobs, and agricultural protection will create 250,000 jobs.</p><p>Third, keep manufacturing in the United States. Preventing the relocation of manufacturing is inherently consistent with the need to create jobs. This statement was mentioned multiple times in the plan, for example: ensuring that automakers are encouraged to build or restructure vehicle or parts factories domestically; Invest in battery technology, but ensure that battery production is carried out domestically, etc.</p><p>In addition, it is worth noting that the specific investment amounts for each sector in the infrastructure plan are still unclear, with only a few projects proposing clear investment amounts. Because the plan was very \"rough,\" it did not have a very detailed spending plan, and only proposed investment amounts for a few projects, such as increasing federal procurement by $400 billion during the first term (the specific procurement plan was not specified). $100 billion to improve public school buildings; In his first year in office, he invested $50 billion to repair highways, roads, and bridges; Invest $20 billion to build rural broadband infrastructure and provide $60 billion to expand broadband access in rural areas; An additional $10 billion will be invested over 10 years to support transportation projects in low-income areas; A $40 billion, 10-year transformation project fund will be used to fund major infrastructure projects, among other things. The investment amount explicitly mentioned in the plan brief is only a little over $800 billion.</p><p>2. Beyond infrastructure, the plan covers eight major areas.</p><p>Overall, Biden's infrastructure plan is not limited to the \"infrastructure sector,\" but has a very broad scope, covering eight major areas: modern infrastructure, automotive industry development, clean electricity investment, building renovation and housing construction, clean energy investment, sustainable agriculture, equal community development, and manufacturing revitalization (a brief introduction is below; see the appendix for details).</p><p>First, build modern infrastructure.</p><p>1) Road repair and construction. In his first year in office, he invested $50 billion in repairing highways, roads, and bridges, and made transportation investments in remote areas. 2) The Second Railway Revolution. Invest heavily in high-speed rail, improve the passenger and freight railway systems, promote the electrification of the railway system, and reduce diesel emissions. 3) Vigorously develop public transportation. By 2030, high-quality public transportation systems will be built in cities with a population of over 100,000. Invest an additional $10 billion over 10 years to support transportation projects in low-income areas. 4) Improve the airport. Double funding for airport improvement programs, provide competitive grants for major airport renovation projects, and fully implement next-generation aviation technology systems. 5) Invest heavily in freight infrastructure, including inland waterways, freight corridors, freight railways, transit facilities and ports. Increase grants for the BUILD and INFRA transportation infrastructure grant projects from 1.8 billion to 3.5 billion annually; Add 2.5 billion yuan annually to the Army Corps of Engineers to promote the modernization of ship locks in inland waterways; Support port port infrastructure. 6) Water conservancy infrastructure construction. Replace aging pipes, double federal investment in clean drinking water and water infrastructure, monitor lead and other contaminants in water systems, and hold polluting companies accountable. Invest in water technology research and development and encourage private sector innovation. 7) New infrastructure projects: smart city construction. $1 billion annually to help five cities pilot new planning strategies and smart city technologies. Invest in broadband networks. Invest $20 billion to build rural broadband infrastructure, and $60 billion to expand broadband access in rural areas and increase the number of broadband providers participating. 8) Establish a transformation project fund. Establish a $40 billion, 10-year transformation project fund to provide assistance for large and complex infrastructure projects.</p><p>Second, it will enable the U.S. auto industry to lead the world this century and accelerate the transition to low-carbon and carbon-free vehicles.</p><p>1) Demand side: Restore the full tax credit for electric vehicles, use federal procurement to increase demand for clean vehicles, and accelerate the upgrade of 3 million government-system vehicles. The goal is to have all new buses manufactured in the United States achieve zero emissions by 2030, converting 500,000 school buses nationwide into zero-emission vehicles. 2) Encourage automakers to build or restructure vehicle or parts factories domestically. 3) Invest $5 billion in battery and energy storage technologies over five years, while ensuring that battery production is carried out domestically. 4) Establish a national charging system consisting of 500,000 public charging points, and provide an additional $1 billion annually to ensure that charging stations are installed by certified technicians. 5) Convene the U.S. Department of Energy and Transportation to coordinate special demonstration projects and provide grants to municipalities and counties willing to pilot new charging infrastructure. 6) Establish fuel economy standards to reduce air pollution.</p><p>Third, clean power investment: achieve carbon-free power generation by 2035.</p><p>1) Develop clean electricity and achieve carbon-free power generation by 2035. 2) Vigorously develop the power grid, promote market reforms, and expand the regional electricity market. 3) Establish energy efficiency and clean electricity standards (EECES) for utilities and grid operators; 4) Upgrade transmission lines to support a larger regional electricity market and promote large-scale energy storage demonstration projects. 5) Research investment and tax incentives for carbon capture, permanent storage, and utilization of carbon capture technologies will be doubled.</p><p>Fourth, building renovation to improve building energy efficiency.</p><p>1) Promote school modernization. Invest $100 billion to improve public school buildings and upgrade child care and early learning facilities across the country. 2) Building energy-saving renovation. Within four years, 4 million commercial buildings will be upgraded and 2 million households will undergo energy-saving renovations. Promote the electrification of the construction industry and increase investment in energy-saving renovation projects for low-income housing and key technologies such as electric heat pumps; Construction of net-zero carbon federal buildings, etc. 3) The carbon footprint of U.S. building stock will be reduced by half by 2035. 4) Promote the construction of 1.5 million public housing units and inject more funds into low-income communities to promote the construction of affordable housing and the development of small businesses.</p><p>Fifth, make historic investments in clean energy innovation.</p><p>1) Increase federal procurement by $400 billion during the first term, with a focus on purchasing key clean energy inputs such as batteries and electric vehicles. 2) Focus on strategic research areas such as clean energy, clean transportation, clean industrial processes and clean materials over the next four years. 3) Strengthen and build key clean energy supply chains in the United States, address issues such as dependence on rare earth minerals, and accelerate innovation in supply chain resilience. 4) Invest heavily in national laboratories, high-performance computing facilities, and other critical infrastructure.</p><p>Sixth, invest in sustainable agriculture and environmental protection.</p><p>1) Through grassroots climate organizations, call on and mobilize a new generation of Americans to engage in environmental protection and climate change response. 2) Make preliminary investments to clean up the damage and impact of past resource extraction on the environment. 3) Maintain American farms and ranches. Provide low-cost funding for farmers to transition to new equipment and methods, fund research and development in precision agriculture and new crops, and establish a voluntary carbon agriculture market; Pursuing pro-worker and pro-family peasant trade policies; Strengthening food supply security and resilience; Ensure fair competition among small and medium-sized farms, etc.</p><p>Seventh, community equality and development.</p><p>1) Provide $5 billion annually to expand the new market tax credit and make the program permanent; 2) Provide double funding to the Community Development Financial Institutions Fund to support financial institutions in low-income areas. 3) Establish a $10 billion urban revitalization fund to carry out creative revitalization projects in struggling cities. 4) Funding anchor institutions in impoverished areas (referring to hospitals, colleges and universities, as well as government administrative agencies, etc.). 5) Fully implement the \"10-20-30 Plan\" (allocating 10% of all federal programs to counties where 20% or more of the population has lived below the poverty line in the past 30 years).</p><p>Eighth, revitalize the country's manufacturing industry and small and medium-sized enterprises.</p><p>1) Revitalize the manufacturing industry. Quadruple funding for the Manufacturing Expansion Partnership Project to provide technical support to small manufacturers in global competition; Develop low-carbon manufacturing in each state; Use tax credits and subsidies to help businesses upgrade equipment and processes, invest in expanding or building new factories, and deploy low-carbon technologies; Provide funding for more competitive or low-carbon manufacturing industries, etc. 2) Promote the development of small and medium-sized enterprises Extend the National Small Business Credit Initiative program to 2025, and increase federal funding to $3 billion; Provide $5 billion to states to develop policies that encourage small business startups, such as supporting technology transfer from public universities to the private sector.</p><p>(iv) What is the impact of Biden's infrastructure on the US economy?</p><p>How should the impact of infrastructure spending on the economy be assessed? We can draw on past assessments of infrastructure effectiveness by American academia and think tanks: 1) A 2014 study by the University of Maryland showed that every $1 spent on public transportation infrastructure investment increases GDP by about $3, with a greater impact during economic recessions. 2) According to a 2014 report by the University of Chicago, an $83 billion infrastructure investment plan—roughly equivalent to 0.6% of GDP—will create 1.7 million jobs in the first three years. 3) According to estimates by global consulting firm McKinsey & Company, every 1 percentage point of GDP increase in U.S. infrastructure spending will create 1.5 million jobs for the economy. 4) The Economic Policy Institute estimates that the return on investment in infrastructure is very high. A review of dozens of infrastructure studies shows that every $100 spent... in the long run will increase private sector output by $13 (median) and $17 (average), respectively. 5) According to the U.S. Congressional Budget Office's (CBO) assessment of Obama's ARRA Act, the output multiplier for infrastructure is between 0.4 and 2.2.</p><p>We can draw on the assessment results of infrastructure effects from American academia and think tanks to roughly estimate the overall impact of Biden's infrastructure plan on the US economy and employment.</p><p>1) Impact on GDP: Biden's infrastructure plan identifies infrastructure spending of approximately $1.3 trillion, with an investment cycle of 10 years, averaging about $130 billion per year, accounting for about 0.6% of GDP in 2019. Estimated based on an output multiplier of 0.4-3 (combined with the output multiplier estimated by the University of Maryland and the CBO), the additional output contribution to GDP over the next ten years will be approximately $52 billion to $390 billion, which is about 0.2% to 1.8% of the nominal GDP in 2019.</p><p>2) Impact on employment: According to the University of Chicago's employment impact estimate, $1.3 trillion in infrastructure spending will create more than 2 million jobs annually over the next decade. According to McKinsey's assessment, it is estimated that approximately 10 million jobs will be created over the next decade. The job impact estimated in the Biden team's plan brief is to create more than 10 million jobs. In summary, Biden's reconstruction plan could create more than 10 million jobs in the United States over the next decade.</p><p>3) Bank of America estimated in a report that Biden’s $2 trillion infrastructure plan could bring 2% to 9% GDP growth in the short term and “significant growth” in the long term, and that every 1% increase in U.S. GDP growth would bring about 3% to 4% growth in the earnings of S&P 500 companies[4].</p><p>II. Biden's Tax Increase: How Will It Be</p><p>Similarly, let's understand Biden's tax increases from four perspectives. First, is Biden certain he wants to raise taxes, and what is the purpose of raising taxes? Second, is there any precedent for raising taxes in American history? Third, how does Biden plan to raise taxes? Fourth, what impact will the tax increase have on the US economy?</p><p>(a) Is Biden determined to raise taxes? What is the purpose?</p><p>Will Biden raise taxes? Tax increases should be a certainty. First, Biden clearly proposed a tax increase plan during his campaign, which was one of his campaign slogans, and it is highly likely that he will implement it. Second, Biden's campaign website states that up to $1.3 trillion in infrastructure investment will be funded entirely by \"ensuring that the super-rich and corporations pay their fair share of taxes.\" Third, Treasury Secretary Yellen has stated that part of the spending for the next bill (referring to Biden's reconstruction plan bill) will be raised by tax increases.</p><p>Biden's tax hikes have three purposes: first, to raise funds for reconstruction programs; second, to fulfill campaign promises; and third, to promote tax fairness through tax system adjustments and to adjust the wealth gap through redistribution. It is clear from the tax system adjustments that the tax burden on the wealthy, high-income groups, and businesses has increased, while the tax credits for low- and middle-income earners have expanded significantly.</p><p>(ii) Are there any precedents for tax increases?</p><p>Before 1950, the highest marginal rates of personal income tax and corporate income tax in the United States both showed a gradual upward trend. During this period, the main reason for tax increases was to raise funds for war. During World War I and World War II, the highest marginal rates of personal income tax and corporate income tax rose significantly. Since the 1950s, the highest marginal tax rates for personal income tax and corporate income tax in the United States have generally shown a gradual downward trend, with many periods of tax cuts and very few periods of tax increases.</p><p>There have been five major tax cuts since 1950: the Kennedy tax cuts in 1963, the Carter tax cuts in 1979, the Reagan tax cuts in the 1980s, the George W. Bush tax cuts in 2001, and the Trump tax cuts in 2017.</p><p>The most obvious tax increases since 1950 have been three.</p><p>The first time was in the late 1960s. The main reason for the tax increase was still war factors. From 1968 to 1970, in order to cover the expenses of the Vietnam War, the United States levied the \"Vietnam War Surcharge,\" which was abolished after 1970.</p><p>The second instance was in 1990, when George H.W. Bush passed the Oversight Budget Reconciliation Act of 1990 to cope with the increased deficit caused by the sharp rise in public spending on defense and healthcare, raising the highest marginal personal income tax rate from 28% to 31%.</p><p>The third was Clinton's tax increase in 1993, which was also the largest and most widespread tax increase in the United States since 1950. To reduce the fiscal deficit, Clinton proposed a tax increase plan in 1993, raising the top marginal personal income tax rate from 31% to 39.6% and the top marginal corporate income tax rate from 34% to 35%. It is worth noting that the increase in the highest marginal personal income tax rate from 35% to 39.6% in 2012 was not due to tax increases, but rather because the Bush tax cuts had expired, and the tax rate automatically returned to the level before the tax cuts.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/059fc482c64a72c92006019e12fd347f\" tg-width=\"819\" tg-height=\"450\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9a271519721bfe2d2e70b5c022a30421\" tg-width=\"1080\" tg-height=\"683\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>(iii) How does Biden plan to raise taxes?</p><p>Biden's tax increases mainly focus on two aspects:<b>First, wage tax, income tax, capital gains tax, and inheritance tax for high-income groups; second, the corporate income tax rate will be raised again, and some corporate taxes will be adjusted.</b>As can be seen from the specific details of the following clauses, Biden's targets for tax increases are very clear: wealthy groups and businesses, while tax incentives and credits for the lower and middle classes of society have been increased.</p><p>1. Individual tax system adjustment: The tax burden on the wealthy increases, while the burden on the lower and middle classes decreases.</p><p>1) A 12.4% Social Security payroll tax would be levied on people earning more than $400,000 a year, split equally between employers and employees. Under the pioneering tax law, individuals with annual incomes above 137,700 do not need to pay Social Security payroll tax.</p><p>2) Raise the maximum personal income tax rate for taxable income exceeding $400,000 from the current 37% to 39.6%; For groups with an annual income exceeding $400,000, even with tax incentives for itemized deductions, their personal income tax rate must not be lower than 28%. Restore the \"Pease Limit\" on item deductions for taxable income exceeding $400,000; For groups with taxable income exceeding $400,000, the eligible business income deduction will be gradually eliminated.</p><p>3) Tax long-term capital gains and qualified Dividend income exceeding US$1 million at an ordinary income tax rate of 39.6%, eliminating the progressive nature of capital gains tax.</p><p>4) Tax credits: Expand the labor income tax credit for employees aged 65 and above without children, and provide individuals with tax credits related to renewable energy; Expand the Child and Dependent Tax Credit (CDCTC) from a maximum of $3,000 to $8,000 ($16,000 for multiple dependents) and increase the maximum reimbursement rate from 35% to 50%. In 2021, the Child Tax Credit (CTC) for children aged 17 and under will be increased from a maximum of $2,000 to $3,000, while an additional $600 credit will be provided for children under 6, with the CTC being fully refunded. It is worth mentioning that the measures regarding CTC have been implemented in the 1.9 trillion relief plan; Rebuild the first-time homebuyer tax credit policy, providing a $15,000 tax credit for first-time homebuyers.</p><p>5) Restore the rates and exemptions for inheritance tax and gift tax to the levels of 2009. Following Trump's tax reform in 2017, the estate and gift tax exemption for 2018-2025 was increased from $5 million to $10 million per person, while the tax rate remained at 40%. If it returns to 2009 levels, the tax allowance will be reduced from the current 10 million to 3.5 million, and the tax rate will increase from 40% to 45%.</p><p>6) Other adjustments lacking clear information: Replace traditional deductions by providing refundable tax credits to balance the tax benefits of traditional retirement accounts (such as 401(k) and individual retirement accounts); Abolish certain provisions of the real estate tax; Expanding the Affordable Care Act premium tax credit; Create a refundable tenant tax credit and provide a credit of no more than $5 billion per year, aiming to keep rent and utility bills below 30% of tenants' monthly income; Increase the amount of housing tax credits for low-income earners.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ee544b934d79e80772ee93dede7fba86\" tg-width=\"954\" tg-height=\"583\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c55ac12a24c96f38ba548d45117f82cb\" tg-width=\"945\" tg-height=\"759\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>2. Corporate tax system adjustment: Tax burden increases, but manufacturing is encouraged to return.</p><p>1) Raise the corporate income tax rate from 21% to 28%.</p><p>2) Impose a minimum tax on companies with book profits exceeding $100 million. The minimum tax is an alternative tax – businesses will pay the higher of regular corporate income tax or the 15% minimum tax, while still allowing net operating loss (NOL) and foreign tax credits.</p><p>3) Double the Global Intangible Low Tax Income Tax rate for overseas subsidiaries of U.S. companies from 10.5% to 21%. It is proposed to conduct a country-by-country assessment of GILTI of overseas subsidiaries and remove the provision that treats GILTI below 10% of qualified corporate asset investments (QBAI) as a return exemption.</p><p>Prior to the 2017 tax reform, the United States generally taxed the global income of its companies and residents. U.S. companies could apply to defer taxation on the active business income of their overseas subsidiaries until the income was repatriated to the United States as Dividend. Following tax reform, the United States exempted earnings from active operations of U.S. companies' overseas subsidiaries, meaning they would not be taxed even if these earnings were repatriated (but passive investment income from foreign subsidiaries would still be taxed). The U.S. Congress, concerned that a complete exemption for multinational corporations' foreign income could exacerbate their practice of shifting profits to low-tax jurisdictions overseas, imposed a minimum tax rate of 10.5% on low-tax income from global intangible assets to prevent profit shifting. GILTI refers to revenue generated from intangible assets such as patents, trademarks, and copyrights. Intangible assets are highly mobile, and this tax rate attempts to prevent U.S. companies from transferring intangible assets overseas.</p><p>4) Tax credits: Establish tax credits for the manufacturing sector; Expand tax credits for new markets and make them permanent; Provide tax credits for small businesses that adopt workplace retirement savings plans; Expand tax credits related to renewable energy, including those for carbon capture, use, and storage, as well as those for residential energy efficiency, and restore the Energy Investment Tax Credit (ITC) and Electric Vehicle Tax Credit, ending tax subsidies for fossil fuels.</p><p>5) Other adjustments lacking clear information: A 10% surtax will be imposed on companies that \"transfer manufacturing and service jobs overseas in order to sell products or provide services to the U.S. market.\" A priority 10% Made in America tax credit is provided for activities that resume production, revitalize closed or soon-to-be-closed facilities, restructure facilities to promote manufacturing employment, or expand manufacturing wage scales.</p><p>(iv) The impact of Biden's tariffs on the US economy</p><p>The impact of tariffs on the economy is quite complex. We mainly rely on assessments by overseas think tanks to gain a general understanding of the impact of Biden's tariffs on the US economy.<b>In terms of economic growth, both the Tax Foundation and the Tax Policy Center estimate that tax increases will have a negative impact on economic growth over the next decade, reducing GDP by 1.62% to 3.4% over the next decade. In terms of tax revenue, the Tax Foundation believes that tax increases could raise approximately $2.8 trillion in tax revenue over the next decade, while the Tax Policy Center estimates that tax increases will reduce federal revenue by $161 billion over the next decade (about 8% of total revenue over those 10 years).</b>In addition, the Tax Foundation expects that tax increases will lead to lower wage levels and job losses, narrowing the income gap but reducing the overall after-tax income of residents.</p><p>1. Tax Foundation estimates</p><p>1) Impact of fiscal revenue: Biden’s tax plan will raise approximately $2.8 trillion over the next 10 years. 2) Economic impact: Over the next decade, it will reduce GDP by a total of 1.62%, GNP by a total of 1.83%, reduce the capital stock by 3.75%, reduce the long-term average wage level by 1.15%, and cause the loss of 542,000 jobs. 3) Impact of income distribution: Biden’s tax plan will reduce the after-tax income of the richest 1% of taxpayers by about 7.7% by 2030, and the average after-tax income of all taxpayers will decrease by 1.9%.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/92310243b616c89248067f2f1a18ffc3\" tg-width=\"1080\" tg-height=\"475\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>2. Tax Policy Center</p><p>1) Economic impact: This will reduce the total US GDP by 3.4% over the next decade. The impact on GDP will turn positive in 2040, and the positive impact will gradually increase in the years after 2040. 2) Revenue impact: This will reduce U.S. federal revenue by $161 billion from 2021 to 2030 (approximately 8% of total revenue over those 10 years) and by $90 billion from 2031 to 2040. By 2040, the impact of the tax plan on federal revenue will turn positive, and its positive effect will gradually increase in the following years of 2040.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0b75c8d26db2d05446f6e6db4dec6a9a\" tg-width=\"944\" tg-height=\"470\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3d0a76e285bdc0d17be49c9ec0fbade5\" tg-width=\"951\" tg-height=\"364\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>III. Key Timeline: When might the formal reconstruction plan be launched?</p><p>Currently, the Biden team has not released a formal plan or investment details. To track Biden's reconstruction plan, there are two key timelines worth paying attention to:</p><p><b>The first key time point: April-May this year.</b></p><p>When Biden first proposed the \"American Relief Plan\" on January 14 this year, he clearly stated: \"Next month, when I attend my first joint session of Congress, I will propose my 'Recovery Plan for a Better Future'[5].\" Under normal circumstances, Biden's reconstruction plan should have been formally proposed in February, but the pandemic was the top priority. On February 11, House Speaker Pelosi said, \"We will not do anything until we pass the COVID-19 relief bill.\" Because the American relief plan encountered resistance in Congress and was not officially implemented until March 14, Biden has not yet attended the joint session of Congress, and the reconstruction plan has not been formally proposed.</p><p>When will the joint session of Congress be held? This is the key. On March 24, White House Press Secretary Psaki stated, \"There is no set date yet... We are certainly still interested in committing to a joint meeting. We will stay in touch with them, but I don't know the specific time.\" Historically, the latest time a president has attended a joint session of Congress and delivered a \"speech to a joint session of Congress\" is no later than February. It is now expected that Biden will officially attend a joint session of Congress in April[6], at which time he will introduce the reconstruction plan to lawmakers. Goldman Sachs also predicts that the White House may submit a detailed budget proposal to Congress in May. Based on statements from senior Democratic officials, they hope the infrastructure plan will pass committees under the Senate and House of Representatives in May. Therefore, we expect the total scale and specific project details of the reconstruction plan to be announced in April or May.</p><p><b>The second critical time point: October.</b></p><p>The launch and implementation of Biden's reconstruction plan requires the approval of the U.S. Congress. Currently, Democrats control the House of Representatives and can easily pass bills there. However, the Democrats only have a slight advantage in the Senate, with only one more vote than the Republicans, and cannot bypass the Senate's \"filibuster\" (60 votes are required). There are only two ways for Biden's reconstruction plan to pass the Senate. One is to secure the support of at least 10 more Republican senators, provided that all Democratic senators agree. Second, the budget reconciliation process will be reactivated, consistent with the congressional process followed by the $1.9 trillion U.S. relief plan, requiring only 51 votes to pass the Senate.</p><p>Based on current statements from senior Republican Senate officials, the feasibility of the first option is extremely low. Senate Republican Leader McConnell said on Monday, \"We've heard that a so-called infrastructure bill may be introduced in the coming months, which could actually be a Trojan horse containing significant tax increases and other left-wing policies that harm jobs.\"</p><p>For Biden's reconstruction plan to be implemented, the most likely outcome is to initiate a budget reconciliation process. The U.S. fiscal year runs from October to September of the following year, and the budget reconciliation process can generally only be used once in a fiscal year (originally, the three areas of revenue, expenditure, and deficit each had one opportunity to initiate the budget reconciliation process each fiscal year, but bills generally cover more than one area, and historically, the budget reconciliation process can only be used once in a fiscal year at most). This year, the $1.9 trillion U.S. relief plan has already used the \"quota\" from fiscal year 2021. If the budget reconciliation process is to be initiated again, it will have to wait until the start of fiscal year 2022. October is the second crucial time. First, by October, the Democratic Party can once again initiate the \"budget reconciliation process.\" Secondly, judging from the statements of Democratic lawmakers, they hope to quickly pass the reconstruction plan bill. For example, House Speaker Pelosi hopes that Congress will take swift action to develop a transformative infrastructure plan.</p><p><img

付春生主要观点1.9万亿美元救济落地后，关于拜登基建计划的讨论热度迅速升温。由于计划目前尚未正式公布，本篇报告以拜登在竞选时提出的基建计划和加税计划作为蓝本，从四个角度（必要性、历史比较、具体措施、影响）去理解拜登的基建和加税，以期对未来正式的重建计划的措施和影响进行大致摸底。拜登基建：怎么建？一、美国目前有没有必要大兴基建？非常有必要。首先，基础设施状况堪忧。据ASCE最新评估，美国基础设施仍「大多低于标准」，表现出较为严重的「恶化」状况。据《全球竞争力报告》，2019年美国在基础设施领域的排名居全球第13位，2002年时则居第5位。其次，存在大规模投资缺口。未来十年基建总投资缺口已经达到2.59万亿美元。最后，基建支出力度远低于主要经济体，欧洲基建支出相当于GDP的5％，中国基建支出约占GDP的8％，而美国仅为2.4％。美国主要依赖地方和州政府进行基建投资，但地方政府逐渐「力不能及」。随着基建存量不断增加，州和地方政府不得不承担更多的运营和维护成本，新增投资额自21世纪初以来一直下降。二、有无联邦政府主导基建投资的先例？从历史比较看，拜登基建是上世纪来美国第二大规模的联邦基建投资。上世纪以来，美国联邦政府主导了四轮大规模基建投资，投资力度最大的是罗斯福新政，公共工程类支出180亿美元，占1933年GDP的31%；投资力度最小的是奥巴马ARRA法案，基建类支出1200亿美元，占2009年GDP的0.8%。艾森豪威尔修建州际高速公路的耗资为250亿美元，占1956年GDP的5.6%，克林顿的信息高速公路计划总投资额4000亿，占1993年GDP的5.8%。拜登基建投资的规模大约1.3万亿美元，占2019年GDP的6.1%，是上世纪以来规模第二大的投资。三、拜登基建的具体措施有哪些？拜登竞选网站上提出的计划规模为2 万亿美元，为期10年，占2019年GDP的9.3%；其中基建投资1.3万亿美元，占2019年GDP的6.1%。计划有三个重点：1）内容十分广泛。涵盖了现代化基建、汽车工业发展、清洁电力投资、建筑改造和住房建设、清洁能源投资、可持续农业、社区平等发展和制造业振兴共八大领域。2）促进就业和重建中产阶级是「重头戏」。3）把制造业留在美国。防止制造业外迁与创造就业的需求是内在一致的。需注意的是，计划中各领域的投资额尚不明晰，只有少数项目提出了明确投资额。四、拜登基建对美国经济有何影响？1）对GDP的影响：10年里，每年基建支出约1300亿，按照产出乘数0.4-3来估计（马里兰大学和CBO的评估），每年对GDP的额外产出贡献约为520亿~3900亿美元，约为2019年名义GDP的0.2%~1.8%。2）对就业的影响：拜登的重建计划在未来十年或将给美国创造超千万的就业岗位。3）美银估计，拜登基建计划在短期内可能会带来2％至9％的GDP增长，从长期来看会使GDP「显著增长」。拜登加税：怎么加？一、拜登加税基本是确定的。三大理由：1）加税是拜登竞选口号之一，大概率将履行。2）在拜登竞选网站上明确写到， 1.3万亿基建投资将全部通过「确保超级富豪和企业支付他们公平的（税收）份额」来筹集。3）财政部长耶伦曾表示，下一个法案（拜登重建计划）的一部分支出将由加税来筹集。二、加税有先例可寻。1950年代以来，美国所得税率整体呈下降趋势，减税多，加税少。主要的加税有三次，一是1968-1970年为应对越战开支而征收的「越战附加税」。二是1990年老布什为应对赤字增长而加税。三是1993年克林顿加税，这也是1950年以来美国最大范围和规模的一次加税，其目的也是为了削减财政赤字。三、富人税负增加，中下阶层减负；企业税负增加，但鼓励制造业回流。拜登的加税对象非常明确，就是富有群体和企业，对社会中下阶层的税收优惠和抵免反而提高了。一方面，提高富裕群体的工资税、所得税、资本利得税和遗产税等，另一方面，重新上调企业所得税率，对其他一些企业税进行调整。四、拜登加税对美国经济有何影响？就经济增长而言，税务基金会和税收政策中心均预估加税会对未来十年对经济增长造成负面影响，会使未来十年GDP下降1.62%~3.4%。就税收收入而言，税务基金会认为加税在未来十年可以筹集约2.8万亿税收收入，而税收政策中心估计加税将使未来十年联邦收入减少1610亿美元（约占10年总收入的8%）。此外税务基金会预计加税将使工资水平下降、就业岗位流失，使收入差距缩小但整体居民税后收入下降。两个关键时间点：正式的重建计划可能会在什么时候推出？第一个关键时间点：今年4-5月。拜登在今年1月14日提出「美国救济计划」时曾明确说道：「在我下个月第一次出席国会联席会议时，我将提出我的‘重建更好未来的复苏计划’。」拜登的重建计划本应该在2月份就正式提出，但疫情才是第一要务，2月11日众议院议长佩洛西表示，「在我们通过新冠疫情纾困法案之前，我们不会做任何事情。」由于美国救济计划在国会遭遇阻力，直到3月14日才正式落地，因此拜登至今还未出席国会联席会议，重建计划也还没有正式提出。国会联席会议什么时候召开呢？这是关键。3月24日白宫发言人普萨基表示，目前还没有确定时间。历史上，总统出席国会联席会议并发表「在国会联席会议上的演讲」的时间最晚不超过2月份。现在海外预期拜登将在4月正式出席国会联席会议，那么届时他将向议员介绍重建计划。另据高盛预计，白宫或在5月向国会递交详细的预算方案。再根据民主党高层的表态，希望基建方案能在5月通过参众两院下属的委员会，所以我们预计，重建计划的总规模和具体的项目细节大概率将于4-5月公布。第二个关键时间点：10月。第一，10月以后民主党可再次启用「预算和解程序」。第二，民主党高层的积极表态表明其会尽可能快地推动重建计划进入国会表决或者在新财年伊始就推动重建计划再走预算和解程序。风险提示：民主党内部就重建计划产生分歧。报告目录报告正文在1.9万亿美国救济计划落地后，关于拜登重建计划（Build Back Better Recovery Plan，因其大部分措施与基建相关，国内外相关报道和报告也将之称为「拜登基建计划」）的讨论热度迅速升温。据彭博3月22日的报道，近期重建计划方案将递交给拜登，且该计划还包含了加税方案。白宫新闻秘书普萨基也在22日表示，「时间快了，所以他本周将与他的团队讨论有哪些选择，规模和范围。」根据拜登在提出救济计划时的表态，他将在第一次出席国会联席会议并发表「在国会联席会议上的演讲」时，向国会议员推介他的重建计划，所以重建计划或将在4月正式「亮相」。由于拜登的重建计划目前尚未公布，本篇报告就以拜登在竞选时提出的基建计划和加税计划作为蓝本来分析。一、拜登基建：怎么「建」？关于拜登基建，我们主要弄清楚四个问题即可。第一，美国目前有没有必要大兴基建？第二，有没有美国政府主导基建大投资的历史经验？如果有，从历史比较，拜登基建投资规模如何？第三，基建计划的具体领域和措施，到底如何建？第四，基建计划对美国经济的影响如何？（一）美国目前有必要大兴基建吗？美国目前的基础设施状况堪忧，非常有必要进行大规模投资。美国大部分的基础设施系统建成于1960年代，许多设施已经达到了最大使用期限，接近「报废」的关头。一、基础设施状况堪忧，综合评定等级较低。美国土木工程师学会（ASCE）2017年对美国基础设施的评定等级为「D+」（等级为A-F），2021年的评定等级升至「C-」。虽然评级有所好转，但也表明美国基础设施仍「大多低于标准」，表现出较为严重的「恶化」状况。从全球比较看，近二十年来美国基础设施领域的评级也在不断下降。根据世界经济论坛的《全球竞争力报告》，2019年美国在基础设施领域的排名位居全球第13位，而2002年时则位居5位，17年里下降了8个名次。二、美国目前存在大规模基建投资缺口，如果不弥补，会对经济和社会发展造成巨大负面影响。有两个评估来源：1）美国土木工程师学会（ASCE）2021年报告认为，未来十年美国基建投资总缺口已经达到2.59万亿美元，如果不弥补，到2039年美国将损失10万亿GDP，损失2.4万亿出口。2）麦肯锡2016年的研究认为，从2017年至2030年，每年需要1500亿美元的基础设施投资，才能跟上美国经济对基础设施的需求。三、美国基建支出力度远低于世界主要经济体，并且主要依赖于州和地方政府。欧洲国家在建设和维护基础设施上的支出相当于GDP的5％，中国的基础设施支出平均约占其GDP的8％，而美国仅为2.4％[1]。此外，与多数其他工业化国家的不同之处在于，美国主要依赖地方和州政府的支出来满足其基础设施的需求。大多数欧洲国家或地区在国家层面上为大部分基础设施建设提供资金，但2017年美国公共基础设施资金中只有25％来自联邦政府，这个数字远低于1977年38％的峰值，表明联邦政府在公共基建上承担的支出责任越来越少。随着美国基建存量不断增加，州和地方政府不得不承担更多的运营和维护成本，也使得基建的新增投资额从2000年代初以来一直下降。（二）历史上联邦政府进行过基建大投资吗？上世纪以来，美国经历过四次联邦政府主导的大规模基建投资，从历史比较看，拜登基建计划是上世纪以来美国第二大规模的联邦基建投资。上世纪以来美国联邦政府主导了四轮大规模基建投资，投资力度最大的是罗斯福新政，公共工程相关支出180亿美元，占1933年GDP的31%；投资力度最小的是奥巴马ARRA法案，其中基建类支出1200亿美元，占2009年GDP的0.8%。艾森豪威尔修建州际高速公路的耗资为250亿美元，约占1956年GDP的5.6%，克林顿的信息高速公路计划总投资额4000亿，占1993年GDP的5.8%。拜登竞选网站上公布的基建类支出大约为1.3万亿美元，约占2019年GDP的6.1%，是上世纪以来规模第二大的投资。1、罗斯福新政大萧条后，为了刺激就业复苏，1933年罗斯福签署《国家工业复兴法》，他认为通过广泛的的公共工程计划能直接带来就业机会。通过设立联邦经济救济署、公共工程管理局（PWA）、公共事业振兴署（WPA）等机构为美国带来了逾千万的就业。到二战前夕，联邦政府工程费用和直接救济费用支出高达180亿美元，占1933年美国GDP比重的31%，占1941年美国GDP比重的14%。如果从广义支出看，罗斯福新政的联邦支出总额为417亿美元，占1933年美国GDP比重的73%，占1941年美国GDP比重的32%。大规模公共工程支出也取得了显著成果：公共工程方面，WPA的小型项目包括了7.8万座桥梁和高架桥、57.2万英里乡村公路；而PWA在建立的前六年里即完成了约1.14个街道和公路项目，总长达3.7万英里[2]。到二战前夕，美国一共修建了近1000座飞机场、12000多个运动场、800多座校舍与医院。就业方面，仅WPA就在1935-1943年为大约八百万人提供了工作机会。2、艾森豪威尔：州际高速公路1950年代，艾森豪威尔主张修建美国州际高速公路系统。1956年，他签署了《联邦援助公路法》，获得了250亿美元的授权，用于在十年内建造4.1万英里的州际高速公路，这笔费用将由存入联邦公路信托基金的汽油税等税收收入支付，联邦政府提供约90%的总支出，其余10%由各州支付。修建州际高速公路的耗资约占1956年美国GDP的5.6%。3、克林顿：「信息高速公路计划」1992年，美国总统候选人克林顿在竞选时提出，要建设信息高速公路。1993年克林顿上台后，正式实施「信息高速公路计划」。计划投资额为4000亿美元，为期20年，逐步将电信光缆铺设到所有家庭用户。1994年，美国政府提出建设全球信息基础设施的倡议，旨在通过卫星通讯和电信光缆连通全球信息网络，形成信息共享的竞争机制[3]。信息高速公路计划总投资额占1993年美国GDP的5.8%。4、奥巴马：ARRA财政刺激法案金融危机后，奥巴马在2009年2月签署财政刺激法案《美国复苏和再投资法案（ARRA）》，初始总规模为7870亿美元，2015年国会预算办公室预计总支出大约为8400亿美元，其中大约有1200亿用于基建项目相关支出，包括：480亿用于运输和公共交通项目，310亿用于联邦建筑现代化改造，310亿用于学校设施和科学设施现代化改造，60亿用于水利项目，50亿用于房屋气候改造项目。ARRA法案的基建类支出规模占2009年GDP比重仅为0.8%。（三）拜登基建计划的具体措施？1、基建计划的三个重点拜登竞选网站上提出的「建设现代、可持续的基础设施和公平、清洁的能源未来」计划，计划跨度为期10年，总规模为 2 万亿美元，约占2019年GDP的9.3%；如果仅看基建类支出，大约为1.3万亿美元，约占2019年GDP的6.1%。竞选网站上公布的计划有两个特点：第一，内容十分广泛。计划不仅仅局限于传统的基础设施和清洁能源投资，还包括智慧城市和宽带等新基建，汽车工业发展，建筑改造和保障性住房建设，可持续农业，制造业振兴和中小企业发展，社区平等和发展等多个领域。第二，促进就业和重建中产阶级是「重头戏」。可以说，增加就业和中产阶级重建是拜登大兴基建的一大主要目的。在拜登的设想里，计划可以大幅创造新的就业岗位，比如：基建领域的投资将创造数百万个就业机会，汽车工业领域将创造100万个就业机会，电力领域的投资将创造数百万个就业岗位，建筑和住房领域投资将创造100万个高薪岗位，农业保护领域将创造25万个工作岗位等。第三，把制造业留在美国。防止制造业外迁，与创造就业的需求是内在一致的。这一说法在计划中多次被提及，比如：确保鼓励汽车制造商在国内建造或重组整车或零部件工厂；投资电池技术但要确保电池生产在国内进行等等。此外，值得说明的是，基建计划中各个领域的具体投资额尚不明晰，只有少数项目提出了明确投资额。由于该计划简介十分「粗糙」，并没有十分细致的支出计划，只在少数项目上提出了投资额，比如：在第一个任期内增加4000亿美元的联邦采购（具体采购计划没有说明）；1000亿美元改善公立学校建筑；执政第一年投入500亿美元修复高速公路、公路和桥梁；投资200亿美元建设农村宽带基础设施，提供600亿资金来扩大农村地区的宽带接入；10年内额外投入100亿美元支持低收入地区的交通项目；400亿美元、为期10年的转型项目基金用于资助重大基建项目等等。计划简介中明确提及投资额度的，零零散散加总，仅有8000多亿美元。2、不仅是基建，计划覆盖八大领域整体来看，拜登的基建计划不仅仅是局限在「基建领域」，覆盖面非常广泛，涵盖了现代化基建、汽车工业发展、清洁电力投资、建筑改造和住房建设、清洁能源投资、可持续农业、社区平等发展和制造业振兴共八大领域（下文是简介，详情参见附录）。第一，构建现代化的基建设施。1）道路修复和建设。执政第一年投入500亿美元用于修复高速公路、道路和桥梁，对边远地区进行交通投资等。2）第二次铁路革命。大力投资高铁，完善客运和货运铁路体系，推动铁路系统电气化，减少柴油排放。3）大力发展公共交通。到2030年，在超过10万人口的城市构建高质量的公共交通系统。在10年内额外投入100亿美元支持低收入地区的交通项目。4）改进机场。为机场改善计划提供双倍资金，为主要机场改造项目提供竞争性赠款，全面实施下一代航空技术系统等。5）大力投资货运基础设施，包括内河航道、货运走廊、货运铁路、中转设施和港口。把BUILD和INFRA交通基建赠款项目赠款从每年18亿提高至35亿；每年为陆军工程兵团增加25亿资金，推动内陆水道的船闸现代化；支持港口基础设施。6）水利基础设施建设。更换老化管道，把联邦对清洁饮用水和水基础设施的投资增加一倍，监测供水系统中铅和其他污染物，追究污染企业的责任。投资水技术研发，号召私人部门创新。7）新基建项目：智能城市建设。每年用10亿美元帮助5个城市试行新的规划战略和智慧城市技术。投资宽带网络。投资200亿美元建设农村宽带基础设施， 600亿资金来扩大农村地区的宽带接入，增加宽带提供商的参与数量等。8）建立转型项目基金。设立一个400亿美元、为期10年的转型项目基金，为庞大复杂的基建项目提供援助。第二，使美国汽车业在本世纪领先全球，加快向低碳和无碳汽车过渡。1）需求方面：恢复电动汽车全额税收抵免，利用联邦采购增加清洁汽车的需求，加速300万辆政府系统汽车的升级换代。设定到2030年所有美国制造的新巴士都实现零排放的目标，将全国50万辆校车转化为零排放汽车。2）鼓励汽车制造商在国内建造或重组整车或零部件工厂。3）五年内在电池和储能技术方面投资50亿美元，同时确保电池生产在国内进行。4）建立一个由50万个公共充电网点组成的全国充电系统，每年额外提供10亿美元资金以确保充电站由经过认证的技术人员安装。5）召集美国能源和交通部协调特别示范项目，向愿意试行新型充电基础设施的市镇和县提供赠款。6）制定燃油经济性标准，减少空气污染。第三，清洁电力投资：2035年实现无碳发电。1）发展清洁电力，到2035年实现无碳发电。2）大力发展电网，推动市场改革，扩大区域电力市场。3）为公用事业和电网运营商建立能源效率和清洁电力标准（ EECES ）；4）升级输电线路以支持更大的区域电力市场，推进大规模储能示范项目。5）将加倍提高对捕获碳、永久封存和利用捕获碳的技术的研究投资和税收优惠。第四，建筑改造，提高建筑能效。1）推动学校现代化。投资1000亿美元改善公立学校建筑，升级全国各地的儿童保育和早期学习设施。2）建筑节能改造。在4年内升级400万栋商业建筑，对200万户家庭进行房屋节能改造。推动建筑行业电气化，加大对低收入房屋节能改造项目和电热泵等关键技术的投资；建造净零碳联邦建筑等。3）2035年美国建筑存量碳足迹减少一半。4）推动建设150万套公共住房，向低收入社区注入更多资金以促进经济适用房的建设和小企业的发展。第五，对清洁能源创新进行历史性投资。1）在第一个任期内增加4000亿美元的联邦采购，其中一个重点是购买电池和电动汽车等关键的清洁能源投入。2）未来4年内专注于清洁能源、清洁交通、清洁工业流程和清洁材料等战略研究领域。3）加强和建设美国关键的清洁能源供应链，解决对稀土矿物的依赖等问题，加快供应链弹性方面的创新。4）大力投资国家实验室、高性能计算能力设施以及其他关键基础设施。第六，投资于可持续农业和环境养护。1）通过民间气候组织号召和动员新一代美国人投入到保护环境和应对气候变化的工作中。2）进行前期投资，以清理以往资源开采对环境造成的破坏和影响。3）维护美国的农场和牧场。为农民向新设备和新方法过渡提供低成本资金，资助精密农业和新作物的研究开发，建立自愿碳农业市场；追求亲工人和亲家庭的农民贸易政策；加强粮食供应的安全性和恢复能力；确保中小型农场的竞争公平等。第七，社区平等和发展。1）每年提供50亿美元，扩大新市场税收抵免并使该计划永久化；2）为社区发展金融机构基金提供双倍资金，支持低收入地区的金融机构。3）设立100亿美元的城市振兴基金，在陷入困境的城市开展创造性的振兴项目。4）资助贫困地区的锚定机构（指医院、学院和大学以及政府行政机构等）。5）全面实施「10-20-30计划（在所有联邦项目中，将10%的资金分配给过去30年有20%或以上的人口生活在贫困线以下的县）」。第八，振兴全国的制造业和中小企业。1）振兴制造业。将制造业扩展伙伴项目的资金提高四倍，为小型制造商在全球竞争中提供技术支持；在每个州发展低碳制造业；利用税收抵免和补贴帮助企业升级设备和流程、投资扩建或新建工厂、部署低碳技术；为更具竞争力或低碳的制造业提供资金等。2）推动中小企业发展。把国家小企业信贷倡议计划延长到2025年，联邦拨款增加至30亿美元；向各州提供50亿美元资金，制定鼓励小企业创业的政策，比如支持从公立大学向私营部门转让技术。（四）拜登基建对美国经济的影响？基建类支出对经济的影响如何评估？可以借鉴过往美国学界和智库对基建效果的评估结果：1）2014年马里兰大学的一项研究表明，公共交通基础设施投资每花费1美元，就会使得GDP增长增加约3美元，在经济衰退期间产生的影响更大。2）根据2014年芝加哥大学的报告，一项830亿美元的基础设施投资计划——大约相当于国内生产总值的0.6%——将在头三年创造170万个就业机会。3）根据全球咨询公司麦肯锡的估计，美国基础设施支出每增加1个百分点的GDP，将为经济增加150万个就业机会。4）经济政策研究所估计，础设施投资的回报率很高。对数十项基础设施研究进行回顾，每支出100美元……从长期来看，将使私营部门的产出分别提高13美元（中位数）和17美元（平均值）。5）据美国国会预算办公室（CBO）对奥巴马ARRA法案的评估，基建类的产出乘数在0.4-2.2之间。可借鉴美国学界和智库对基建效果的评估结果，从整体上大概估算拜登基建计划对美国经济和就业的影响。1）对GDP的影响：拜登基建计划中，确定的基建类支出大约是1.3万亿美元，投资周期10年，平均每年的支出约为1300亿，约占2019年GDP比重的0.6%，按照产出乘数0.4-3来估计（结合马里兰大学和CBO估计的产出乘数），未来十年，每年对GDP的额外产出贡献约为520亿~3900亿美元，约为2019年名义GDP的0.2%~1.8%。2）对就业的影响：根据芝加哥大学的就业影响估计，1.3万亿的基建类支出未来十年将每年创造逾200万个工作岗位。根据麦肯锡的评估结果估计，未来十年将带动约1000万的就业。拜登团队在计划简介中的就业影响估计是带动超1000万个就业。综合来看，拜登的重建计划在未来十年或将给美国创造超千万的就业岗位。3）美国银行在一份报告中估计，拜登的2万亿美元的基础设施计划在短期内可能会带来2％至9％的GDP增长，从长期来看会使GDP「显著增长」，并且美国GDP增长每增加1％，将带来标准普尔500公司收益的3％到4％左右的增长[4]。二、拜登加税：怎么加？同样的，我们从四个问题来理解拜登加税。第一，拜登是不是确定要加税，加税的目的是什么？第二，加税在美国历史上有先例吗？第三，拜登打算怎么加税？第四，加税对美国经济有何影响？（一）拜登确定要加税？目的何在？拜登是否要加税？加税应该是肯定的。第一，拜登在竞选时曾明确提出加税计划，这是其竞选口号之一，大概率将履行。第二，在拜登的竞选网站上写到，基础设施领域多达1.3万亿美元的投资，将全部通过「确保超级富豪和企业支付他们公平的（税收）份额」来筹集资金。第三，财政部长耶伦曾表示，下一个法案（指拜登的重建计划法案）的一部分支出将由加税来筹集。拜登加税的三个目的：一是为重建计划筹集资金，二是兑现竞选承诺，三是通过税制调整以促进税收公平，通过二次分配来调节贫富差距。从税制调整中可以很明显地看出，富人和高收入阶层、企业的税负压力增大，而中低收入者的税收抵免则明显扩大。（二）加税有先例可寻吗？在1950年以前，美国个人所得税和企业所得税最高边际税率均呈逐渐上升趋势，这一时期，加税的主要原因是为战争筹资，在一战和二战期间，个人所得税和企业所得税最高边际税率大幅上升。从1950年代以来，美国个人所得税和企业所得税最高边际税率整体呈逐渐下降趋势，减税时期多，加税时期极少。1950年以来，主要的减税有五次： 1963年肯尼迪减税、1979年卡特减税、1980年代里根减税、2001年小布什减税、2017年特朗普减税。而1950年以来的加税，最明显的有三次。第一次是1960年代后期，加税的主要原因还是战争因素，从1968年-1970年，为了应对越南战争的开支，美国征收了「越战附加税」，1970年以后取消。第二次是1990年老布什为了应对国防和医疗等社会公共开支大幅上升带来赤字增加，在1990年通过《1990年监察预算调解法案》，将个人所得税最高边际税率从28%提高至31%。第三次是1993年克林顿加税，这一次也是1950年以来美国最大范围和规模的一次加税。为了削减财政赤字，克林顿在1993年提出增税计划，将个人所得税最高边际税率从31%提高至39.6%，将企业所得税最高边际税率从34%提高至35%。值得注意的是，2012年个人所得税最高边际税率从35%上升至39.6%并非是加税导致，而是小布什减税期限已满，税率自动回到减税前的水平。（三）拜登打算如何加税？拜登加税主要是在两个方面，一是高收入群体的工资税、所得税、资本利得税和遗产税等，二是重新上调企业所得税率，对一些企业税进行调整。从下述条款的具体细则中可以看出，拜登的加税对象非常明确，就是富有群体和企业，对社会中下阶层的税收优惠和抵免反而提高了。1、个体税制调整：富人税负增加，中下阶层减负1）对年收入超过40万美元的人征收12.4%的社会保障工资税（Social Security payroll tax），由雇主和雇员平分。在先行的税法下，年收入高于13.77万的个人不需要支付社会保障工资税。2）将应税收入超过40万美元的最高个人所得税税率从现行法律规定的37%上调至39.6%；对于年收入超过40万美元的群体，即便有分项扣除的税收优惠，其个人所得税率也不得低于28%；恢复对应税收入超过40万美元的项目扣除额的「皮斯限制」；对应税收入超过40万美元的群体，逐步取消符合资格的业务收入扣除额。3）按39.6%的普通所得税税率对100万美元以上的长期资本利得和合格股息收入征税，消除资本利得税的累进性。4）税收抵免：扩大65岁以上无子女员工的劳动所得税抵免，为个人提供可再生能源相关的税收抵免；将儿童和受扶养人税收抵免(CDCTC)从最高3000美元扩大到8000美元(多个受扶养人为16000美元)，并将最高偿还率从35%提高到50%。在2021年，将17岁及以下儿童的儿童税收抵免(CTC)从最高2000美元提高到3000美元，同时为6岁以下儿童提供600美元的额外抵免，CTC将全额退还。值得一提的是，关于CTC的措施已在1.9万亿救济计划中实施；重建首次购房者的税收抵免政策，为首次购房者提供1.5万美元的税收抵免。5）将遗产税和赠与税的税率和免税额恢复到2009年的水平。2017年特朗普税改后，将2018-2025年的遗产和赠与税的免税额从每人500万提高至1000万，税率仍然定在40%。如果回到2009年水平，免税额将从现在的1000万降至350万，税率则从40%提高至45%。6）其他缺乏明确信息的调整项目：通过提供可退还的税收抵免来取代传统的扣除项目，以平衡传统退休账户(如401(k)和个人退休账户)的税收优惠；取消房地产税的某些规定；扩大《平价医疗法案》的保费税收抵免；创建可退还的租户税收抵免并提供每年不超过50亿美元的抵免额度，旨在将租金和水电费保持在租户月收入的30%以下；加大对低收入者住房税收抵免的额度。2、企业税制调整：税负增加，但鼓励制造业回流1）将企业所得税税率从21%提高到28%。2）对账面利润超过1亿美元的公司征收最低税。最低税是一种替代税——企业将支付常规企业所得税或15%最低税中的更高者，仍然允许净经营亏损(NOL)和外国税收抵免。3）将美国公司海外子公司的全球无形资产低税收收入(Global Intangible Low Tax Income)税率从10.5%提高一倍至21%。提议对海外子公司的GILTI进行分国家评估，取消将低于合格企业资产投资(QBAI) 10%的GILTI视为回报豁免的条款。在2017年税改前，美国一般对其公司和居民的全球收入征税，美国公司可以申请推迟对海外子公司的活跃业务收益征税，直到收益作为股息汇回美国。在税改之后，美国豁免了美国公司海外子公司活跃业务的收益，即使这些收益被汇回国内也不会被征税(但仍对外国子公司的被动投资收入征税)。美国国会担心将跨国公司的海外收入完全豁免，可能会加剧其将利润转移到海外低税收司法管辖区的做法，因此对全球无形资产低税收收入制定了10.5%的最低税率，以阻止利润转移。GILTI是指无形资产(如专利、商标和版权)带来的收入。无形资产具有高度的可移动性，该税率试图阻止美国公司将无形资产转移到海外。4）税收抵免：建立制造业税收抵免；扩大新市场的税收抵免并使之永久化；为采用工作场所退休储蓄计划的小企业提供税收抵免；扩大与可再生能源相关的税收抵免，包括碳捕获、使用和储存的税收抵免以及住宅能效的税收抵免，并恢复能源投资税收抵免(ITC)和电动汽车税收抵免，结束对化石燃料的税收补贴。5）其他缺乏明确信息的调整项目：对那些「为了向美国市场销售产品或提供服务而将制造业和服务业工作岗位转移到国外」的企业征收10%的附加税。为恢复生产、振兴已关闭或即将关闭的设施、重组设施以促进制造业就业或扩大制造业工资规模的活动，提供优先的10%的「美国制造」税收抵免。（四）拜登加税对美国经济的影响加税对经济的影响较为复杂，主要借鉴海外智库的评估来大致了解拜登加税对美国经济的影响。就经济增长而言，税务基金会和税收政策中心均预估加税会对未来十年对经济增长造成负面影响，会使未来十年GDP下降1.62%~3.4%。就税收收入而言，税务基金会认为加税在未来十年可以筹集约2.8万亿税收收入，而税收政策中心估计加税将使未来十年联邦收入减少1610亿美元（约占这10年总收入的8%）。此外，税务基金会预计加税将使工资水平下降、就业岗位流失，使收入差距缩小但整体居民税后收入下降。1、税务基金会（Tax Foundation）的估计1）财政收入的影响：拜登税收计划将在未来10年筹集约2.8万亿美元。2）经济的影响：在未来十年，使GDP总共减少1.62%，GNP总共下降1.83%，使资本存量减少3.75%，使长期平均工资水平下降1.15%，损失54.2万个工作岗位。3）收入分配的影响：拜登的税收计划到2030年将导致最富有的1%纳税人的税后收入减少7.7%左右，所有纳税人的税后收入平均下降1.9%。2、税收政策中心（TaxPolicy Center）1）经济影响：使未来十年美国GDP总共下降3.4%，对GDP的影响将在2040年转正，在2040年以后的年份，正向影响将逐渐增大。2）收入影响：将使2021年至2030年的美国联邦收入减少1610亿美元（约占这10年总收入的8%），2031年至2040年减少900亿美元。到2040年，税收计划对联邦收入的影响将转正，其正效应在2040年的随后年份将逐渐增加。三、关键时间点：正式的重建计划可能会在什么时候推出？目前，拜登团队还没有公布正式的计划方案和投资细则，后续要追踪拜登的重建计划，有两个关键的时间节点值得关注：第一个关键时间点：今年4-5月。拜登在今年1月14日首次提出「美国救济计划」时曾明确说道：「下个月，在我第一次出席国会联席会议时，我将提出我的‘重建更好未来的复苏计划’[5]。」正常情况下，拜登的重建计划本应该在2月份就正式提出，但疫情才是第一要务，2月11日众议院议长佩洛西表示，「在我们通过新冠疫情纾困法案之前，我们不会做任何事情。」由于美国救济计划在国会遭遇阻力，直到3月14日才正式落地，因此拜登至今还未出席国会联席会议，重建计划也还没有正式提出。国会联席会议什么时候召开呢？这是关键。3月24日白宫发言人普萨基表示，「目前还没有确定时间…我们当然仍有兴趣承诺进行一次联合会议。我们会与他们保持联系，但我不知道具体的时间。」历史上，总统出席国会联席会议并发表「在国会联席会议上的演讲」的时间最晚不超过2月份。现在海外预期拜登将在4月正式出席国会联席会议[6]，那么届时他将向议员介绍重建计划。另据高盛预计，白宫或在5月向国会递交详细的预算方案。再根据民主党高层的表态，希望基建方案能在5月通过参众两院下属的委员会，因此我们预计，重建计划的总规模和具体的项目细节大概率将于4-5月公布。第二个关键时间点：10月。拜登的重建计划的推出实施，需要经过美国国会的同意。目前民主党掌控众议院，可以在众议院轻松通过法案。但是民主党在参议院只是略占优势，仅比共和党多1票的投票权，无法绕过参议院的「阻挠议事」（需要60票）。拜登的重建计划要想在参议院获得通过，只有两个办法。一是在保证所有民主党参议员同意的前提下，至少再争取10位共和党参议员的支持。二是再次启用预算和解程序，和1.9万亿美国救济计划走的国会流程一致，只需要51票即可通过参议院。就目前共和党参议院高层的表态来看，第一种办法的可行性非常低，参议院共和党领导麦康奈尔本周一表示：「我们听说，未来几个月可能会提出所谓的基础设施法案，实际上可能是暗藏大幅加税和其他有损就业的左翼政策的特洛伊木马。」拜登的重建计划要想落地，最大的可能是启动预算和解程序。美国财政年度是每年10月至次年9月，预算和解程序一个财年一般只能使用一次（本来收入、支出和赤字三个领域每财年各有一次启动预算和解程序的机会，但是法案一般不只涉及一个领域，基本上三个领域都会覆盖，历史经验看，预算和解程序也是一个财年最多一次），今年1.9万亿美国救济计划已经使用过2021财年的「额度」，若要再次启用预算和解程序，只能等到2022财年开始。10月份是第二个关键的时间点，第一，到10月份，民主党可以再次启用「预算和解程序」。第二，从民主党议员的表态来看，他们希望能快速通过重建计划法案，比如众议院议长佩洛西希望国会快速采取行动制定变革性的基建计划。四附录：拜登重建计划细则内容","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{".DJI":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":2285,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":836273024,"gmtCreate":1629504191868,"gmtModify":1676530059075,"author":{"id":"3557305548001793","authorId":"3557305548001793","name":"Ikhas","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a0fd7b69b3c00ecf9cc780ede0cf5943","crmLevel":8,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3557305548001793","authorIdStr":"3557305548001793"},"themes":[],"title":"","htmlText":"call+put","listText":"call+put","text":"call+put","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/836273024","repostId":"831047902","repostType":1,"repost":{"id":831047902,"gmtCreate":1629275789206,"gmtModify":1676529987850,"author":{"id":"3475881360925617","authorId":"3475881360925617","name":"老鲁随笔","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d535174472de4c802c0f5dd0dd467dc2","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3475881360925617","authorIdStr":"3475881360925617"},"themes":[],"title":"爆賺36倍！美股期權Vertical

It takes 5 to 10 years to turn them into \"overnight success,\" with dozens of setbacks and course corrections along the way.</p><p><b>So, choose something you're passionate about and get started.</b></p><p><b>Slow and fast compliance</b></p><p>Duan Yongping once said, \"Slow is fast.\"</p><p>Coinbase is not a case of rapid rise and wild growth. On the contrary, although it was founded earlier, its trading volume has far surpassed that of its successors.</p><p>If we compare global cryptocurrency exchanges to a classroom, then Coinbase is a typical \"good student\":<b>Despite his average grades, he was honest and obedient, and was well-liked by his teachers.</b></p><p>At the crossroads of growth speed and compliance, Coinbase chose compliance.</p><p>Coinbase has been investing heavily in obtaining regulatory licenses, holding Money Transmitter licenses in all 50 states in the United States. It is also one of the few exchanges to hold a BitLicense issued by New York State specifically for digital currency exchanges, and has obtained licenses to trade legal tender in 33 countries and has established payment channels.</p><p>In addition to its exchange business, Coinbase has also applied for and acquired licenses on a large scale in the upstream and downstream of the industry chain. Currently, Coinbase holds a series of financial licenses, including payments, savings, loans, financial derivatives trading, alternative asset trading, brokerage trading, and investment advisory.</p><p>Previously, internal employees revealed that Coinbase's compliance team once numbered nearly one-third of the company, occupying a large amount of the company's resources. This led to Coinbase's high transaction fees and insufficient investment in technology, operations, and user experience.</p><p>Due to compliance, Coinbase cannot offer trading in a large number of cryptocurrencies, nor does it offer derivatives trading such as contracts, resulting in it lagging far behind similar exchanges outside the United States in terms of trading volume.</p><p>In Coinbase's compliance process, former Chief Legal Officer Brian Brooks played a pivotal role, working with various regulatory agencies to spearhead the establishment of the Crypto Rating Council (CRC), an industry alliance.</p><p>In 2020, Brian Brooks was hired as the supervisor.<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/BAC\">Bank of America</a>The head of the U.S. Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC).</p><p>Coinbase's compliance-focused operating strategy did not allow it to achieve exponential growth in trading volume and finances in the short term. However, due to its compliant operations and regulatory recognition, it is far ahead of other similar companies in accessing the mainstream financial sector, laying a solid foundation for its long-term development in the US market.</p><p>After completing its compliance infrastructure, Coinbase, which had been delayed in fulfilling its obligations, finally ushered in a spring of harvest in 2021.</p><p>Coinbase has long been \"critically acclaimed but not commercially successful,\" only achieving its first profit in 2017. In 2019, it suffered a net loss of $30 million, but it turned a profit with a net profit of $322 million in 2020.</p><p>In the first quarter of 2021, Coinbase experienced a surge in performance, achieving revenue of $1.8 billion, a surge of 844% compared to the same period last year, and net profit approaching $800 million.</p><p>All of this is inseparable from Coinbase's early compliance efforts.</p><p><b>Building the Future</b></p><p>Coinbase's slow and stable performance also stems from Brian Armstrong's long-term planning.<b>The exchange business is a means to an end, not Coinbase's ultimate goal or destination.</b></p><p>In 2016, Brian Armstrong predicted the development of blockchain in the next few years based on the historical development patterns of the Internet. He divided his future of the blockchain world into four main stages and formulated a development blueprint for Coinbase over the next ten years based on what Coinbase could do at each stage.<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a8b4e8f8597b30239154d9904b4ec5b9\" tg-width=\"600\" tg-height=\"173\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><b>Phase 1 (Agreement Phase): Development Agreement (serving 1 million people)</b></p><p>During this phase, new protocols (Bitcoin, Ethereum, etc.) were created, and people began to improve them.</p><p>Open-source communities are developed around each protocol, and in some cases, these protocols are sponsored and helped by enterprises. The race for protocols has begun, and it remains to be seen which protocol can be scaled up and attract application developers.</p><p>Coinbase will not participate in this phase of development, but will only maintain close cooperation with some excellent players.</p><p><b>Phase 2 (Infrastructure): Establish a digital currency exchange (serving 10 million people)</b></p><p>According to Brain Armstrong, investment or speculation is an indispensable initiation and acceleration mechanism for the future establishment of blockchain payment networks, and therefore exchange business is indispensable.</p><p>Initially, Coinbase was just a wallet. Later, it established the GDAX exchange for institutional and professional investors, which is now Coinbase Pro. This forms Coinbase's core business, and Coinbase will use the revenue from this phase to invest in the next phase of its plans, while continuing to expand these businesses to more countries.</p><p><b>Phase 3 (User Portal): Establish a portal for digital currency applications (serving 100 million people)</b></p><p>When consumers start using blockchain applications (dApps), they need a simple user interface and portal. In the internet world, the portal is HTML and a Web browser, which are built on the TCP/IP protocol.</p><p>In the blockchain world, Coinbase believes it will be a similar product to a WEB browser that has not yet been developed, and its underlying structure may be a wallet completely controlled by the user.</p><p>This will lower the barrier to entry for ordinary people to use it and reduce the difficulty of developing blockchain applications.</p><p>Coinbase will participate in this phase by establishing or investing in related teams.</p><p><b>Phase 4 (Decentralized Applications): Building an open financial system application (serving 1 billion people)</b></p><p>Brian Armstrong believes that the existing traditional financial system will be rebuilt into an open network accessible to users worldwide, with future applications including:</p><p>Loans (mortgages, small business loans, microloans, etc.) Venture capital (seed investment, traditional VCs, risky debt, etc.) Investments (stocks, index funds, savings accounts, etc.) Identity and reputation (ID cards, identity verification, credit scores, etc.) Remittances (cross-border remittances) Merchant processing (retail, online orders) Coinbase will participate in this phase by building teams, acquiring and investing in various companies, and Coinbase will also build developer tools and work with regulators to draft regulatory solutions suitable for this industry.</p><p>In summary, in Brian Armstrong's plan, exchanges are only the first step in building an ecosystem, and the money earned from exchanges will continue to be used to participate in the next phase of infrastructure construction and investment, thereby ultimately securing a place in an open financial system for billions of people.</p><p>In 2016, Brian Armstrong believed they were at the end of the second phase, but still in the early stages of blockchain.</p><p>Subsequently, Coinbase firmly executed this plan, upgrading Gdax trading to Coinbase Pro, targeting institutional users, and continuously expanding its reach through acquisitions:</p><p>They developed the Wallet app Toshi, which was later renamed Coinbase Wallet; Acquired Cipher Browse, an Ethereum dApp browser and wallet; Acquisition of Ethereum P2P trading platform Paradex; Acquisition of Xapo's custody business; Acquisition of Tagomi, a lead brokerage platform for digital asset trading; Acquired Routefire, a crypto trading infrastructure provider; Acquisition of Bison Trails, a blockchain infrastructure provider; Acquisition of cryptocurrency task website Earn.com... Acquisition of three licensed financial services companies, securities dealers Keystone Capital, Venovate Marketlpace, and Digital Wealth LLC. Going public is not the end or goal of Coinbase. Everything Coinbase is doing now is still preparing for the fourth phase, building an open financial system for the Coinbase ecosystem.</p><p><b>The \"American Dream\" of Cryptocurrency</b></p><p>Coinbase's success is difficult to replicate.</p><p>Lei Jun often says that even pigs can fly when they stand at the forefront of the cryptocurrency trend. There are many pigs that can fly when they stand at the forefront of the cryptocurrency trend, but there is only one Coinbase. Because it is in the United States, why don't China, Japan, and South Korea have \"Coinbase\"?</p><p><b>The United States still maintains monetary hegemony, is the center of global capital markets, and has gradually gained pricing power in Bitcoin.</b></p><p>In terms of regulation, China, the United States, and Japan have different regulatory approaches.</p><p>After 1994, \"heavy chain suppression of cryptocurrencies\" became the main theme of China's blockchain world.</p><p>China defines blockchain as a<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/III\">Information services</a>The technology is regulated by the Cyberspace Administration of China, while the financial risks that may arise from blockchain and cryptocurrencies are regulated by the People's Bank of China.</p><p>The main regulatory agencies in the United States include the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC).</p><p>Regarding token issuance and exchanges, the United States has not adopted a one-size-fits-all approach. Instead, it has included utility tokens and securities tokens in its respective regulatory systems. The issuance of securities tokens requires registration in accordance with securities laws, while exchanges need to obtain licenses to operate.</p><p>At the same time, the US SEC has frequently taken action to crack down on various illegal ICOs.</p><p>Although Japan is one of the few countries in the world that provides legal protection for digital assets, and the establishment and operation of cryptocurrency exchanges are entirely legal and compliant, due to stringent regulations...<b>The lack of currency listing authority on Japanese stock exchanges makes it more difficult for domestic projects to raise funds and trade, and to some extent hinders the development of innovative projects.</b></p><p>Today, Coinbase has become, to some extent, a model for the US cryptocurrency regulatory balancing act.</p><p>Secondly, the United States, as the world's largest economy, provides Coinbase with ample space. As Wall Street embraces Bitcoin, Coinbase has become the \"Bitcoin steward\" for institutions due to its compliance advantages. According to data from Bituniverse on April 13, the Coinbase platform currently has 870,000 Bitcoin, far exceeding Binance (215,100) and Huobi (252,300).</p><p><b>The rise of Coinbase reflects the decline of Bitcoin' pricing power in the Eastern world, while the Western world, centered on the United States, has gained more leverage and influence.</b></p><p>Whether it's its business focus or its competitive advantage, Coinbase cannot do without the US regulatory agencies and the US market behind it.<b>Coinbase is not an ideal story of decentralization, but rather the \"American Dream\" of cryptocurrency.</b></p>","source":"lsy1592805329705","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Coinbase Apocalypse: The Cryptocurrency American Dream Starting from an Eleven-Page PPT</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 12.5px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nCoinbase Apocalypse: The Cryptocurrency American Dream Starting from an Eleven-Page PPT\n</h2>\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n<p class=\"head\">\n<strong class=\"h-name small\">深潮TechFlow</strong><span class=\"h-time small\">2021-04-13 18:51</span>\n</p>\n</h4>\n</header>\n<article>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d202e56fe292c12f1ec756eff7095093\" tg-width=\"1080\" tg-height=\"565\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">A historic moment is approaching: Coinbase will list on Nasdaq in the United States on Wednesday (14th) (ticker symbol COIN), marking a milestone in the cryptocurrency world.</p><p>Bloomberg reports,<b>Coinbase's valuation could reach approximately $100 billion, a figure exceeding the combined market capitalization of the Nasdaq exchange and its parent company on the New York Stock Exchange.</b></p><p>Founded in 2012, Coinbase doesn't have much of a legendary story of unbridled growth.

On the contrary, although it was founded earlier, its trading volume has far surpassed that of its successors.</p><p>If we compare global cryptocurrency exchanges to a classroom, then Coinbase is a typical \"good student\":<b>Despite his average grades, he was honest and obedient, and was well-liked by his teachers.</b></p><p>At the crossroads of growth speed and compliance, Coinbase chose compliance.</p><p>Coinbase has been investing heavily in obtaining regulatory licenses, holding Money Transmitter licenses in all 50 states in the United States. It is also one of the few exchanges to hold a BitLicense issued by New York State specifically for digital currency exchanges, and has obtained licenses to trade legal tender in 33 countries and has established payment channels.</p><p>In addition to its exchange business, Coinbase has also applied for and acquired licenses on a large scale in the upstream and downstream of the industry chain. Currently, Coinbase holds a series of financial licenses, including payments, savings, loans, financial derivatives trading, alternative asset trading, brokerage trading, and investment advisory.</p><p>Previously, internal employees revealed that Coinbase's compliance team once numbered nearly one-third of the company, occupying a large amount of the company's resources. This led to Coinbase's high transaction fees and insufficient investment in technology, operations, and user experience.</p><p>Due to compliance, Coinbase cannot offer trading in a large number of cryptocurrencies, nor does it offer derivatives trading such as contracts, resulting in it lagging far behind similar exchanges outside the United States in terms of trading volume.</p><p>In Coinbase's compliance process, former Chief Legal Officer Brian Brooks played a pivotal role, working with various regulatory agencies to spearhead the establishment of the Crypto Rating Council (CRC), an industry alliance.</p><p>In 2020, Brian Brooks was hired as the supervisor.<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/BAC\">Bank of America</a>The head of the U.S. Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC).</p><p>Coinbase's compliance-focused operating strategy did not allow it to achieve exponential growth in trading volume and finances in the short term. However, due to its compliant operations and regulatory recognition, it is far ahead of other similar companies in accessing the mainstream financial sector, laying a solid foundation for its long-term development in the US market.</p><p>After completing its compliance infrastructure, Coinbase, which had been delayed in fulfilling its obligations, finally ushered in a spring of harvest in 2021.</p><p>Coinbase has long been \"critically acclaimed but not commercially successful,\" only achieving its first profit in 2017. In 2019, it suffered a net loss of $30 million, but it turned a profit with a net profit of $322 million in 2020.</p><p>In the first quarter of 2021, Coinbase experienced a surge in performance, achieving revenue of $1.8 billion, a surge of 844% compared to the same period last year, and net profit approaching $800 million.</p><p>All of this is inseparable from Coinbase's early compliance efforts.</p><p><b>Building the Future</b></p><p>Coinbase's slow and stable performance also stems from Brian Armstrong's long-term planning.<b>The exchange business is a means to an end, not Coinbase's ultimate goal or destination.</b></p><p>In 2016, Brian Armstrong predicted the development of blockchain in the next few years based on the historical development patterns of the Internet. He divided his future of the blockchain world into four main stages and formulated a development blueprint for Coinbase over the next ten years based on what Coinbase could do at each stage.<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a8b4e8f8597b30239154d9904b4ec5b9\" tg-width=\"600\" tg-height=\"173\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><b>Phase 1 (Agreement Phase): Development Agreement (serving 1 million people)</b></p><p>During this phase, new protocols (Bitcoin, Ethereum, etc.) were created, and people began to improve them.</p><p>Open-source communities are developed around each protocol, and in some cases, these protocols are sponsored and helped by enterprises. The race for protocols has begun, and it remains to be seen which protocol can be scaled up and attract application developers.</p><p>Coinbase will not participate in this phase of development, but will only maintain close cooperation with some excellent players.</p><p><b>Phase 2 (Infrastructure): Establish a digital currency exchange (serving 10 million people)</b></p><p>According to Brain Armstrong, investment or speculation is an indispensable initiation and acceleration mechanism for the future establishment of blockchain payment networks, and therefore exchange business is indispensable.</p><p>Initially, Coinbase was just a wallet. Later, it established the GDAX exchange for institutional and professional investors, which is now Coinbase Pro. This forms Coinbase's core business, and Coinbase will use the revenue from this phase to invest in the next phase of its plans, while continuing to expand these businesses to more countries.</p><p><b>Phase 3 (User Portal): Establish a portal for digital currency applications (serving 100 million people)</b></p><p>When consumers start using blockchain applications (dApps), they need a simple user interface and portal. In the internet world, the portal is HTML and a Web browser, which are built on the TCP/IP protocol.</p><p>In the blockchain world, Coinbase believes it will be a similar product to a WEB browser that has not yet been developed, and its underlying structure may be a wallet completely controlled by the user.</p><p>This will lower the barrier to entry for ordinary people to use it and reduce the difficulty of developing blockchain applications.</p><p>Coinbase will participate in this phase by establishing or investing in related teams.</p><p><b>Phase 4 (Decentralized Applications): Building an open financial system application (serving 1 billion people)</b></p><p>Brian Armstrong believes that the existing traditional financial system will be rebuilt into an open network accessible to users worldwide, with future applications including:</p><p>Loans (mortgages, small business loans, microloans, etc.) Venture capital (seed investment, traditional VCs, risky debt, etc.) Investments (stocks, index funds, savings accounts, etc.) Identity and reputation (ID cards, identity verification, credit scores, etc.) Remittances (cross-border remittances) Merchant processing (retail, online orders) Coinbase will participate in this phase by building teams, acquiring and investing in various companies, and Coinbase will also build developer tools and work with regulators to draft regulatory solutions suitable for this industry.</p><p>In summary, in Brian Armstrong's plan, exchanges are only the first step in building an ecosystem, and the money earned from exchanges will continue to be used to participate in the next phase of infrastructure construction and investment, thereby ultimately securing a place in an open financial system for billions of people.</p><p>In 2016, Brian Armstrong believed they were at the end of the second phase, but still in the early stages of blockchain.</p><p>Subsequently, Coinbase firmly executed this plan, upgrading Gdax trading to Coinbase Pro, targeting institutional users, and continuously expanding its reach through acquisitions:</p><p>They developed the Wallet app Toshi, which was later renamed Coinbase Wallet; Acquired Cipher Browse, an Ethereum dApp browser and wallet; Acquisition of Ethereum P2P trading platform Paradex; Acquisition of Xapo's custody business; Acquisition of Tagomi, a lead brokerage platform for digital asset trading; Acquired Routefire, a crypto trading infrastructure provider; Acquisition of Bison Trails, a blockchain infrastructure provider; Acquisition of cryptocurrency task website Earn.com... Acquisition of three licensed financial services companies, securities dealers Keystone Capital, Venovate Marketlpace, and Digital Wealth LLC. Going public is not the end or goal of Coinbase. Everything Coinbase is doing now is still preparing for the fourth phase, building an open financial system for the Coinbase ecosystem.</p><p><b>The \"American Dream\" of Cryptocurrency</b></p><p>Coinbase's success is difficult to replicate.</p><p>Lei Jun often says that even pigs can fly when they stand at the forefront of the cryptocurrency trend. There are many pigs that can fly when they stand at the forefront of the cryptocurrency trend, but there is only one Coinbase. Because it is in the United States, why don't China, Japan, and South Korea have \"Coinbase\"?</p><p><b>The United States still maintains monetary hegemony, is the center of global capital markets, and has gradually gained pricing power in Bitcoin.</b></p><p>In terms of regulation, China, the United States, and Japan have different regulatory approaches.</p><p>After 1994, \"heavy chain suppression of cryptocurrencies\" became the main theme of China's blockchain world.</p><p>China defines blockchain as a<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/III\">Information services</a>The technology is regulated by the Cyberspace Administration of China, while the financial risks that may arise from blockchain and cryptocurrencies are regulated by the People's Bank of China.</p><p>The main regulatory agencies in the United States include the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC).</p><p>Regarding token issuance and exchanges, the United States has not adopted a one-size-fits-all approach. Instead, it has included utility tokens and securities tokens in its respective regulatory systems. The issuance of securities tokens requires registration in accordance with securities laws, while exchanges need to obtain licenses to operate.</p><p>At the same time, the US SEC has frequently taken action to crack down on various illegal ICOs.</p><p>Although Japan is one of the few countries in the world that provides legal protection for digital assets, and the establishment and operation of cryptocurrency exchanges are entirely legal and compliant, due to stringent regulations...<b>The lack of currency listing authority on Japanese stock exchanges makes it more difficult for domestic projects to raise funds and trade, and to some extent hinders the development of innovative projects.</b></p><p>Today, Coinbase has become, to some extent, a model for the US cryptocurrency regulatory balancing act.</p><p>Secondly, the United States, as the world's largest economy, provides Coinbase with ample space. As Wall Street embraces Bitcoin, Coinbase has become the \"Bitcoin steward\" for institutions due to its compliance advantages. According to data from Bituniverse on April 13, the Coinbase platform currently has 870,000 Bitcoin, far exceeding Binance (215,100) and Huobi (252,300).</p><p><b>The rise of Coinbase reflects the decline of Bitcoin' pricing power in the Eastern world, while the Western world, centered on the United States, has gained more leverage and influence.</b></p><p>Whether it's its business focus or its competitive advantage, Coinbase cannot do without the US regulatory agencies and the US market behind it.<b>Coinbase is not an ideal story of decentralization, but rather the \"American Dream\" of cryptocurrency.</b></p>\n<div class=\"bt-text\">\n\n\n<p> source：<a

Armstrong偶然间阅读了比特币白皮书，从此打开了加密货币的大门，他以9美元的价格购买了1000多枚比特币，在比特币价格一度跌到2美元的时候，Armstrong并没有离场，而是一直靠编写代码来购买比特币，与此同时，他觉察到了其中的创业机会，也许自己可以创建一个比特币公司？2年后的夏天，Brian与与合作伙伴Fred Ehrsam共同创建了Coinbase，以钱包的形式。两人设想，Coinbase将成为一个比特币市场，人们可以在这里购买加密货币。随后，他们将Coinbase登记入了Y Combinator创业孵化器项目，在 YC 路演日上，Brian Armstrong用了十一页PPT描绘 Coinbase 理想与愿景，“Coinbase之于比特币，就好比 iTunes之于MP3 。”2017年，当Brian Armstrong回顾这十一页Pitch Deck时，颇有感想，写下了这段话：伟大的事物都是从卑微的起点开始的。你身边看到的大多数东西，一开始不过是一个简单的想法和一个粗糙的原型，要把它变成 \"一夜成功\"，需要5到10年的时间，一路上要经历几十次挫折和路线修正。所以，选择一件你热衷的事情，开始吧。合规的慢与快段永平曾言，“慢就是快”。Coinbase并不是快速崛起，野蛮生长的案例，相反，尽管它成立较早，但是交易量远被它的后辈们超越。如果把全球加密货币交易所比作一间教室，那么Coinbase就是典型的“好学生”：尽管成绩一般，但是老实听话，深受老师的喜欢。在发展速度与合规的十字路口，Coinbase选择了合规。Coinbase一直在获得监管牌照方面不惜投入重金，拥有美国50个州的转账交易牌照（Money Transmitter License），同时成为为数不多的、拥有纽约州专门为数字货币交易所颁发的BitLicense的交易所，在33个国家取得合法交易法币的许可并打通支付渠道。除了交易所业务，Coinbase在产业链上下游也大规模申请和收购牌照， 目前Coinbase拥有支付、储蓄、贷款、金融衍生品交易、另类资产交易、券商交易和投资顾问等一系列金融牌照。此前据内部员工透露，Coinbase合规团队人数一度接近公司的1/3，占据公司大量资源，这也导致Coinbase手续费高昂，在技术、运营和用户体验上投入不足。因为合规，Coinbase无法提供大量币种交易，也没有提供合约这样的衍生品交易，导致其在交易量方面远远落后于美国境外的同类交易所。在Coinbase的合规进程中，前任首席法务官Brian Brooks发挥了举足轻重的作用，配合各个监管机构，牵头建设了行业联盟性质的加密数字货币评级委员会（Crypto Rating Council，CRC）。2020年，Brian Brooks被聘请担任为监管美国银行业的美国货币监理局（OCC）负责人。Coinbase专注合规的经营战略并没有让它在短期内实现交易量以及财务方面的指数级增长，但是由于它的合规经营，并且受到监管的认可，它在接入主流金融领域方面遥遥领先于其它同类公司，奠定了它在美国市场中长期发展的坚实基础。在完成合规的基础建设之后，延迟满足的Coinbase终于在2021年迎来收获的春天。Coinbase长期“叫好不叫座”，2017年才实现首次盈利，2019年净亏损3000万美元，直到2020年牛市来临，扭亏为盈，净利润3.22亿美元。2021一季度，Coinbase业绩全面爆发，实现营收18亿美元，较去年同期暴增844%，净利润接近8亿美元。这一切都离不开Coinbase早期的合规建设。建设未来Coinbase的慢与稳，也源于Brian Armstrong的长期规划，交易所业务是手段，而不是Coinbase的最终目的与归宿。2016年，Brian Armstrong 根据互联网的历史发展规律，预测了区块链未来几年的发展，他将其区块链世界未来划分为四个主要的阶段，并根据每个阶段 Coinbase能做的事情，制定了 Coinbase未来十年的发展蓝图。第一阶段（协议阶段）：开发协议（服务100万人）在这个阶段，新的协议（比特币、以太坊等）被创造了出来，人们开始改进这些协议。开源社区会围绕着每一个协议进行开发，在某些情况下，这些协议会得到企业的赞助和帮助。协议的竞赛已开始上演，究竟哪个协议可以得到扩展，并吸引应用开发者，仍有待于观察。Coinbase 不会参与这个阶段的开发，只会和一些优秀的玩家保持紧密合作。第二阶段（基础设施）：建立数字货币交易所（服务1000万人）在Brain Armstrong看来，投资或者说投机对于未来区块链的支付网络建立是不可或缺的初始化加速机制，因此交易所业务不可或缺。最初，Coinbase只是钱包，后来为机构和职业投资者建立了GDAX交易所，也就是如今的Coinbase Pro，这构成了Coinbase的核心业务，Coinbase 将用这阶段的收入来投资下一阶段计划，同时继续将这些业务扩展到更多的国家。第三阶段（用户入口）：为数字货币应用建立入口（服务1亿人）消费者在开始使用区块链应用（dApp）时，他们需要的是一个简单的用户界面和入口，互联网世界里的入口是HTML与Web浏览器，这是建立在TCP/IP协议之上。在区块链世界里，Coinbase 认为它会是尚未开发出来的WEB浏览器同类产品，其底层可能是一个完全由用户控制的钱包。这将降低普通人使用它的门槛，并且降低区块链应用的开发难度。Coinbase 将通过建立或投资相关的团队来参与这一阶段。第四阶段（去中心化应用）：打造一个开放式金融系统应用（服务10亿人）Brian Armstrong 认为现有的传统金融系统将被重建为一个开放式的网络，可供全球用户访问，未来需要的应用包括：贷款（抵押贷款、小企业贷款、小额贷款等）风险投资（种子投资、传统VC，风险债务等）投资（股票、指数型基金、储蓄账户等）身份与声誉（身份证、身份认证、信用评分等）汇款（跨境汇款）商户处理（零售、网络订单）Coinbase会通过建立团队、收购和投资各种公司的方式来参与这一阶段，并且Coinbase 也将建立开发者工具，并与监管机构合作来起草适合这一行业的监管方案。总结起来，在Brian Armstrong的规划中，交易所只是构建生态的第一步，并持续利用交易所赚的钱去参与下一个阶段的基础设施建设与投资，从而最终在面向十亿人的开放金融系统中占据一席之地。2016年，Brian Armstrong认为他们处于第二阶段的末尾期，但仍处于区块链的早期阶段。此后，Coinbase 坚定地执行了这个计划，把Gdax交易升级成Coinbase Pro，发力机构用户，并持续通过收购，拓宽自己的边界：开发了钱包应用 Toshi，后来改名为 Coinbase Wallet；收购以太坊dApp浏览器和钱包Cipher Browse；收购以太坊P2P交易平台Paradex；收购Xapo的托管业务；收购数字资产交易主经纪商平台Tagomi；收购加密交易基础设施提供商Routefire；收购区块链基础设施提供商Bison Trails；收购加密货币任务网站Earn.com……收购三家持牌金融服务公司，证券交易商 Keystone Capital，Venovate Marketlpace 和 Digital Wealth LLC 。……上市也不是Coinbase的终点和目的，目前Coinbase所做的一切，仍然在为第四个阶段，构建Coinbase生态的开放金融系统做准备。加密货币的“美国梦”Coinbase的成功难以复制。雷军常说，站在风口上，猪都能飞起来，站在加密货币的风口上飞起来的猪有很多，但Coinbase只有一个，因为它在美国，为什么中国、日本、韩国没有“Coinbase”？美国依然掌握了货币霸权，是全球资本市场的中心，并且逐渐得到了比特币的定价权。监管上，中国、美国、日本的监管思路不同。九四之后，“重链抑币”成为中国区块链世界的主旋律。中国将区块链定义为一种信息服务技术，监管主体是中央网信办，而对于区块链以及加密货币可能带来的金融风险，则由中国人民银行进行监管。美国的监管机构主要包括美国证券交易委员会 (SEC)、商品期货交易委员会（CFTC）。对于代币发行和交易所，美国并没有采用一刀切的方式，而是将实用型通证和证券性通证分别纳入相应监管体系，证券属性代币的发行需要依照证券法登记注册，交易所经营则需要获得牌照。与此同时，美国SEC频繁出手，打击各类非法ICO。尽管日本是全球为数不多为数字资产提供法律保障的国家之一，加密货币交易所的设立运营也完全可以合法合规，然而由于监管严苛，日本交易所没有上币权，从而导致本土项目募资和交易的难度变大，一定程度上阻碍了创新项目的发展。如今的Coinbase，一定程度上成为了美国加密货币监管平衡术下的样本。其次，美国作为全球最大的经济体，为Coinbase提供了广阔的空间，当华尔街拥抱比特币，Coinbase也因为其合规优势成为了机构们的“比特币大管家”，据Bituniverse 4月13日数据，目前Coinbase平台拥有87万枚比特币，远超币安（21.51万）和火币（25.23万）。Coinbase的崛起，背后是东方世界比特币定价权的衰落，以美国为中心的西方世界获得更多筹码以及话语权。无论是业务重心还是护城河，Coinbase都离不开身后的美国监管机构以及美国市场，Coinbase并不是去中心化的理想故事，更多是加密货币的“美国梦”。","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"COIN":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":4664,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"lives":[]}
