Not helping Washington fill the deficit? Pro-US countries cut US debt purchases by over 60%, Japan slashes by 99%, Taiwan and South Korea listed as sellers ZH不幫華府填赤字?親美國家買美債縮手逾6成 日本暴減99% 台、韓名列賣方
Newtalk新聞 美國政府債務持續膨脹,過去被視為美債穩定買盤的友好國家,如今卻紛紛縮手。根據《彭博》分析美國財政部與國務院數據,今年前 8 個月,與美國關係密切的國家及地區,合計淨買入 1,743 億美元中長期美國公債,較去年同期大減逾 60%,創 2021 年以來同期最低。 其中,身為美債最大海外持有國的日本,今年前 8 個月僅淨買入 3.89 億美元,年減高達 99%;韓國則淨賣出 238 億美元,創下自 1977 年有紀錄以來同期最高。台灣同樣出現淨賣出,顯示華府的亞洲盟邦們也正在調整美債配置。 報導指出,這波變化並非單純出於政治考量。報導指出,亞幣走弱、國內公債殖利率上升、美股投資需求增加,以及對美國政策不確定性的擔憂,都可能促使資金重新配置。由於統計同時涵蓋官方與民間投資人,無法直接認定各國正有計畫地減碼美債。 目前,美國政府債務規模已突破 40 兆美元,財政部需要持續吸引資金支應支出。然而,川普政府的關稅政策及政策不確定性,加上日本、歐洲等地公債殖利率攀升,使全球投資人有更多選擇,不再只能將資金投入美債。 以日本為例,國內公債殖利率升至數十年高點,縮小海外債券的相對吸引力;韓國投資人則更偏好股票。美國外交關係委員會資深研究員 Brad Setser 指出,台灣資金也逐漸轉向股票與銀行存款,反映部分擁有龐大經常帳盈餘的經濟體,不再將美債視為主要資金去處。 Setser 認為,這是全球資金配置逐漸「去儲備化」的現象,意即海外資產更多透過退休基金、國有銀行及其他大型機構持有,而非集中於央行外匯存底。儘管這不代表各國正在全面「去美元化」,但可能削弱美債過去相對穩定的官方需求。 不過,美債仍有其他買家。今年前 8 個月,與美國立場最不一致的國家反而淨買入 …

US-Japan-Philippines maritime cooperation exercise concludes; China and Indonesia's 'Sharp Blade' joint training begins, South China Sea rivalry draws attention ZH美日菲海上合作演習剛落幕 中與印尼「利刃」聯訓登場 南海較勁受關注
Newtalk新聞 美國、日本與菲律賓日前在南海周邊舉行海上合作活動,中國則宣布將與印尼於廣東展開「利刃-2026」陸軍反恐聯合訓練。兩項活動時間接近,但演習地點、軍種及訓練科目均有所不同,呈現南海周邊國家不同的安全合作模式。 美日菲「海上合作活動」於 10 月 24 日在菲律賓專屬經濟區內結束,為期 6 天。日本海上自衛隊派出「霧雨」號護衛艦,美國海岸防衛隊則出動「伯索夫」號,菲律賓方面投入「米格爾·馬爾瓦爾」號艦艇,以及 AW109 直升機、C-208B 運輸機和 FA-50 戰機。 美日菲「海上合作活動」於 10 月 24 日在菲律賓專屬經濟區內結束,為期 6 天。 圖:翻攝自 環球譯視 演習項目包括通信演練、分隊戰術、攝影演練、甲板降落資格認證、垂直補給、海域態勢感知及搜救等,未涉及實彈射擊、反潛對抗或兩棲登陸。菲律賓軍方表示,活動目的是加強後勤、海上安全及緊急應變方面的協調。 中國國防部則於 10 月 26 日發布消息指出,10 月下旬至 11 月上旬,中國與印尼兩軍將在廣東舉行「利刃-2026」陸軍反恐聯合訓練,這也是該系列第 …

Polar cold air moves south before winter! Huge 'blue split polar vortex' appears in the Arctic Circle, Japan and South Korea bear the brunt ZH入冬前極區冷空氣南移!北極圈現巨大「藍色分裂極渦」 日韓首當其衝
Newtalk新聞 未來一週將有3波東北季風接連報到,昨(27)晚開始北台灣已能感受到涼意,北部空曠地區最低溫更下探17度。前中央氣象局長鄭明典表示,目前北方有個「分裂極渦」,會把冷空氣由北極圈內帶出來,屬於入冬前的極區冷空氣南移事件;不過這個分裂極渦對韓國、日本的影響比較明顯,對台灣影響不大。 氣象署指出,本週首波東北季風自昨晚開始影響台灣,桃園以北、東半部及恆春半島天氣轉為濕涼;30日第二波東北季風又會增強,屆時高溫將降至25至26度,北部和東半部地區有雨;接著11月2日又有第三波東北季風增強,北部及東半部天氣再度轉為濕涼,嘉義以北到宜蘭一帶的都會區清晨低溫約20至22度,空曠地區則會下探17至19度。 對此,鄭明典也貼出全球500hPa(百帕)位勢高度(Geopotential Height)圖指出,從圖中可以看到,在地球北邊、也就是北極圈的位置,有一個很大的藍色極渦正在分裂中。鄭明典說明,分裂極渦會把冷空氣由北極圈內帶出來,這次是東亞分裂極渦南移到北緯60度以南,算是入冬前的極區冷空氣南移事件。 不過鄭明典也提到,由於目前還沒立冬,加上這波分裂極渦屬於「波數2」結構,對韓國、日本的影響比較明顯,台灣則影響不大,因此還不會特別冷;台灣真正要注意的,是「波數3」的極區冷空氣外流事件。延伸閱讀:睽違4年多!華航、長榮歐洲線「重返俄羅斯航路」 陳世凱回應了下週迎立冬!3波東北季風連襲「低溫剩1字頭」 專家:天氣跟過去很不一樣3波東北季風連襲!鄭明典曝「0度線逐漸南下」:北方冷空氣開始活躍了變天了!3波東北季風輪番襲台 未來一週天氣一圖看桃園以北及宜蘭今偏涼、高溫僅23度 未來一週東北季風接力報到天氣再轉涼
