The Trump administration may withdraw from stimulus negotiations, sending US stocks down 300 points
Despite the recent good news about the vaccine, risks remain as the epidemic continues, the Fed chairman said on Thursday, re-emphasizing the importance of fiscal stimulus measures.

Global financial giants gather at a high-level forum to discuss monetary policy and negative interest rates
Since the beginning of this year, in response to the impact of the COVID-19 epidemic on the economy, major central banks around the world have cut interest rates or expanded asset purchases. While these measures have contributed to stabilizing the economy, low interest rates and loose financial conditions may encourage excessive risk accumulation, leaving the financial system fragile in the long run.
At a high-level forum on China's development on Thursday night, the head of the International Monetary Fund said that the crisis caused by the current epidemic is far from over and that monetary policy needs to remain loose to support economic recovery. However, the next easing policy should be more targeted, fiscal policy should also make efforts to tie in with monetary policy, and special liquidity support should be withdrawn when financial conditions improve.

HSBC Holdings PLC: negative interest rates may have a negative impact on the resilience of the global financial system
People related to the HSBC Group said that monetary policy should be accurate drip irrigation, while considering the issue of policy exit. Global government support for companies generally has some effect, but this support cannot last indefinitely, and some companies may fall back into trouble once the policy is withdrawn. According to some past experience, non-performing loans may be a drag on economic development after economic recovery, weakening the ability of banks to provide financial support to the real economy. After this crisis, the financial industry is likely to face a surge in non-performing loans in the coming years.
He also pointed out that at the policy level, the implementation of negative interest rates has considerable uncertainty, which may support both loan demand and loan supply. In practical terms, negative interest rates are not very feasible because it is difficult for many people to understand negative interest rates, which may have a negative impact on the resilience of the global financial system.
Credit Suisse: looking forward to the next 6 to 12 months, global funds will continue to flow into the Chinese stock market
In fact, there has been a shift of money from Europe and the US to emerging markets such as China in the last six to 12 months, especially in recent weeks. In addition, the magnitude of quantitative easing in the major developed economies is increasing, and some of the funds have been diverted to emerging markets such as China from various perspectives such as future returns.
UBS strategists say a new outbreak in Europe and the US has cast a shadow over expectations of a global economic recovery after global stocks were sold off at one point. If more countries are forced to impose some travel restrictions or close cities, the de-risk trend of global stock markets is likely to be further deepened. Given China's success in controlling the epidemic and the continued economic recovery, the A-share market is expected to outperform the rest of the world.
