The United States has been clamoring for a huge trade deficit with other trading partners before, and President Trump also hopes to narrow this trade deficit through the escalation of trade friction, so that the trade deficit between the United States and other countries can be narrowed. In fact, the United States not only has an annual trade deficit of $460 billion with China and other countries, but also has a huge trade deficit with most countries in the world.
Although the United States has a population of only 320 million, it is the first consumer market in the world. Americans like to spend in advance and overdraw. In the United States, the supply of goods in low-end manufacturing industry is insufficient and basically blank, so we can only import a large number of cheap goods from other countries. To put it bluntly, after the global division of labor, the United States is mainly engaged in high-end manufacturing, while American citizens can only rely on imports for their daily necessities. In this case, it is not surprising that the United States has a huge trade deficit with most countries.
Every American has five insurances, so invest your money in insurance. Because the yield of insurance is 5% or even higher, which is far greater than the savings rate of American banks and has long-term income, many insurance companies are richer and have more say than banks.

Futures, stocks, real estate, industry, bonds, trusts, funds, collectibles, etc. Occupy most of the investment market, no one wants to deposit money in the bank.
