China investors are undoubtedly familiar with the stock in the capital market. In view of the domestic stock market, people can't help but feel a kind of abandoned and tasteless regret. A-shares have been in a bear market since 2009. The unique unilateral trading mode of A-shares makes investors have few opportunities to participate in the market and increases investment risks, but the advantages of the two-way trading mode of crude oil investment have been well reflected. Compared with stocks, the biggest advantage of crude oil investment is the efficiency of capital utilization. Crude oil investment is margin trading, which improves the efficiency of capital utilization compared with full stock trading. The unique T+ 1 trading mechanism in China stock market makes the stock operation very difficult and inflexible. T+0 trading mechanism of crude oil investment is easy to grasp the market at any time, avoid risks and has strong operational flexibility.
Second, perfect market mechanism and flexible trading time;
Compared with futures investment closely related to crude oil investment, domestic futures investment mainly focuses on agricultural products and industrial raw materials futures contracts, and agricultural products investment is greatly affected by seasonality, and the transaction continuity is insufficient. However, crude oil is an international energy trading variety, which is active and persistent; Moreover, the main force of domestic futures investment is seriously manipulated, which is prone to a bad situation in which a single banker controls the market. The huge international supply and demand of crude oil investment is simply beyond the control of such a financial group, so the market trend of crude oil investment is more reasonable and easier to grasp; Futures trading time is mainly concentrated in daytime working hours, while crude oil investment trading is mainly concentrated in European and American countries, so its active trading time is mainly concentrated from 8: 00 pm to 1 1 point, which is a good working time stagger, which is convenient for focusing on market operation and paying attention to Zhongcai.
Third, the investment demand that cannot be replaced by hedging;
How about crude oil investment? What are the advantages of crude oil investment? Compared with precious metals with high domestic investment enthusiasm in recent years, crude oil and precious metals are inextricably linked as investment targets, and their price responses to international fundamentals such as the international situation, the US economic environment and the European debt crisis are basically in the same direction. However, from their basic properties, we can find that precious metals are mainly used in jewelry technology, medical equipment and storage. Compared with crude oil, the market demand for precious metals is not high. As an industrial raw material, crude oil is widely used in various industrial production and processing, which has a national strategic position, and its spot market demand is stronger than that of silver, so investors have a greater demand for hedging by combining spot and futures, which well reflects one of the advantages of crude oil compared with silver-hedging.
Fourth, the threshold is lower and the investment recovery cycle is faster.
Compared with the crude oil investment and the real estate industry, which had the biggest investment income in previous years, the real estate industry started a wave of excellent investment market in 2006. However, at present, the government's enthusiasm for market investment in various purchase restrictions has decreased, and there is a big bubble and potential risks. Secondly, the real estate industry has a high investment threshold, which is beyond the reach of ordinary retail investors. Real estate investment has a long payback period and slow capital withdrawal. However, the price of crude oil fluctuates greatly, coupled with its two-way trading mode, there are many investment opportunities, the trading threshold of using margin is low, the investment demand of small and medium-sized investment is met, and the investment return period is short.
