Russia again increased investments in US securities

9
The US Ministry of Finance published data according to which in August Russia increased investments in the US public debt by $ 800 million and brought it up to $ 9,3 billion.



This investment in US bonds is the first in 2019. Of the total investment above, long-term securities account for $ 6,259 billion, and the rest - for short-term ones.

It is hardly worth worrying about such a small investment: with its investments, Russia is not even in the top 30 countries that are the largest holders of US debt. Moreover, it steadily reduces this indicator.

If we talk about the largest holders of American debt, then first of all we need to recall Japan, the volume of investments of which today is, without exaggeration, an astronomical amount of 1,175 trillion dollars.

At the same time, the "Land of the Rising Sun" this year alone increased its investment by $ 45 billion.

Second place on this list is China, with investments of $ 1,103 trillion and a small decline.

And closes the top three "leaders" of the faithful satellite of the United States - the United Kingdom, the amount of investments in which the American debt reaches 350 billion dollars.

      So anyway, this invested money is not Russian, it is withdrawn from the Russian economy at least until the maturity of the bonds. And all the expenses for "currency transactions" under contracts, etc., will (according to the Central Bank's plans) be sought from internal reserves "- that is, downloaded from citizens. Look, they have already started talking about the fact that Russians keep so many billions of dollars in accounts in Russian banks as "stash" for a rainy day - and this is a mess - the Central Bank believes that Russian citizens should not have foreign currency deposits, it is necessary to create such conditions that citizens are forced to get rid of the currency, selling it to the state and for this it is necessary to introduce negative rates on foreign currency deposits, fixed rates of internal conversion, etc.

        "Quae sunt Caesaris Caesari et quae sunt Dei Deo" ... - Caesar is Caesar, but God is God ...

        - The Central Bank was not created to comply with and fulfill Russia's interests ...

        It was created as a private banking organization, and exists exclusively as a branch of the US Federal Reserve System (US Federal Reserve), as well as a private banking organization of the Rothschilds and Rockefellers. Thus, the Central Bank of Russia does not belong to Russia and the Russian people ...

        - But the Central Bank is already ... as a given ... nothing can be done about it ... only the Bolsheviks could cope with this at the beginning of the last century ...
        - And everything else ... - this is already "stupid lyrics", when one sovereign state is so afraid of its people that it is forced to recklessly trust everyone in the world famous swindler ... - so great is the fear ... -But this is how- it's clear ...
        But when this same state (little adventure for him), in addition to everything else, begins to "collect candy wrappers" and is ready to ditch their state for these candy wrappers ... then this ... this ... this ... is already such a pathology, which is simply incomprehensible to the mind ... -Alas ...

          Why is it "incomprehensible to the mind"? This is where everything is clear. Who runs Russia now is right: "Siloviks" and "Ozero" cooperative with relatives and hangers-on-friends-girlfriends, and most of them got out of the 80-90s of the Soviet era "blackmail" - that is, they got used to " sell "," protect "," remove competitors "," take away "and" hide "- they simply do not know and do not know how to do anything else. Their economic advisors are" boys "," specially selected "and have completed short-term 3-month courses" of management and economics "at Columbia and Yale Universities, moreover, funded by Soros and the CIA. What do you think, what interests may all this fraternity have?

            You have confirmed only my first part of the statements, where as a "summary":

            - But this is somehow understandable ...

            - I repeat once again ... - it's all just clear ... - about "Columbia and Yale Universities", about "Soros and the CIA funding", foreign accounts, etc ... - About "these" everything is clear and so ... - they will be draped later, when they are "squeezed" (if "squeezed") to their accounts ... - in the USA, in Britain, in Zap. Europe, etc ... This is the "first part" ...

            -And the "second part" ... about China ... and no longer about "these", but about "others" ... about "collecting candy wrappers", about ditching your own state in a different way .... about "pathology" ... etc ...
            - What are "these others" counting on .. ??? - They will not then live in China in honor, glory and wealth ... - In China they will be killed very quickly or hidden in such a way that not a word or a soul will remain about them ... - And they themselves will not go to China .., and will go again to the "dollar states" ... -to the USA, Canada, Australia, etc.
            - And the "candy wrappers-yuan", for the "collecting" of which the Chinese will pay with these "other" dollars (if the Chinese are generous at all and will not be killed) ... -so they will remain wrappers ...
            - Here is the summary:
            1. The first villains earn dollars by placing public funds in other people's assets, etc ...;
            2. The second villains earn dollars by facilitating and organizing government deals, where valuable government goods are sold for counterfeit foreign "candy wrappers" ...
            - Both "those" and "these" villains commit their crimes for the sake of receiving dollars in ... in ... in ... in their caraman ...

    So they work, the United States owes 20 trillion. dollars, Japan 10 trillion. Debts are sold to each other, and they tell us what their economic growth is.
    Will they repay debts? Or forgive each other?

    Russia again increased investments in US securities

    In vain (if this, of course, is true), but how it all began well.

    US Treasury published data

    There is no trust in them, they could also throw a fake.

    Well, we talked about gold, now we have to deal with business. And how does the Central Bank still get profit, not investing these billion dollars in modernization of the country? Do you say Putin? And who will finance the United States - Grudinin?
