This guy does not understand liquidity at all. In his theory, the specular needs to dump Chinese assets to cause panic. The reality is there is no way to dump, the market is not liquid in China. Even if one investor is willing to lower the price of his property, the others would not follow because if the market is bad, then there is no buyer no matter how low the price is. So even if one or two speculator wanted to dump assets to cause panic, so long as they do not have incentives (liquidity - chances of getting sales done) for the others to lower their prices, there is no way they could cause panic. This is not like bond or stock transactions. In China, since leverage is not huge (which creates little loan repay pressure on investors), investors traped in a bad market would opt to wait rather than dump.
Actually the liquidity of the real property market in the US is better than China. If he really likes his theory, the shorters should dump the US assets to cause panic to make their shorts on US dollars and US indexes profitable.
He is a daydreaming gambler.
All devrivatives are "derivatives" and are more exposed to fluctuation in the real world. The bigger the derivatives market, the bigger leverage. A small change in real world could easily make the wrong better out of the game. Do typically the speculars would try to balance both sides of the derivatives. How was he so sure the players are all (or the majority) on the shorters side? If there are more long speculators, the shorters would die faster.
His own example made it clear that the shorters lose money not because of his sale of the losing short contracts but because there are tons of longs buying the bond (he himself is using 10X leverage doing that). That is called short squeeze.
The guy did not even know how he made money. I bet he will lose all of his money if he stays in the market a little longer. |
