Trump strikes again: Is U.S. employment data falsified, causing market panic?
Recently, former U.S. President Trump made big news again, directly stating that the newly released employment data is 'fake', believing that someone is deliberately trying to sabotage him before the election to damage his reputation. As soon as this statement was made, Wall Street and the political arena erupted.
Market reaction: Investors are panicking.
The financial market fears uncertainty the most; with Trump's outburst, the stock market and cryptocurrencies immediately began to fluctuate. Some institutional investors have already started adjusting their strategies, fearing there may indeed be problems with the data, leading to a sudden market crash. For example, Bitcoin's price has been volatile in recent days, and some hedge funds are quietly increasing their positions in gold as a safe haven.
Why is this matter so sensitive?
Economic data = political weapons? In the U.S., key indicators like employment data and inflation numbers are often used by politicians as weapons. If data can indeed be manipulated, how can the market still have faith?
Precision strikes before the election? Trump believes that releasing data at this time is aimed at him. Similar things have happened before, such as before the 2016 election when the FBI suddenly reopened the investigation into Hillary's 'email scandal', which directly affected the election situation.
The market hates 'surprises'. Wall Street likes predictability; if even official data is not trustworthy, then investment models must be completely rebuilt.
What impact does this have on Chinese investors?
Fluctuations in the U.S. stock market may affect the sentiment of the A-shares, especially those heavily invested by foreign capital.
If the U.S. dollar weakens due to political turmoil, the RMB exchange rate may passively appreciate, affecting export enterprises.
Cryptocurrency may become a short-term safe haven option, but the risks are extremely high; ordinary people should not blindly follow the trend.
Personal opinion:
Trump's accusations may not all be true, but they do expose an issue — in the U.S., economic data is becoming increasingly politicized. Investors need to learn to distinguish between what are real signals and what is noise. For example, one can compare data from different institutions or observe the market's genuine reactions instead of just listening to politicians argue.
This farce once again proves that under Western electoral politics, economic data can also become a 'weapon'. Ordinary people investing should not just look at news headlines but should ponder the logic behind them. The market carries risks, and decisions should be made cautiously.#加密市场回调
