霍华德·马克斯:信心的作用·第2则

霍华德·马克斯《《信心的作用》》· The Role of Confidence · 财富 · 投资 · 认知 · 领导

The primary impact of confidence on the economy is simple. If people think the economic future will be good, they’ll spend and invest . . . thus things will be good. Consumers’ optimism will translate into incremental demand for goods, adding to GDP. Consumer buying will convince businesses to invest in expanded facilities and additional workers in order to keep up with growing demand. Businesses’ investment in plant and workers will add to GDP. Newly hired workers will have money to spend, and their buying will add further to the cycle. The reports of confidence-fueled increases in GDP and other positive mentions of the economy in the media will reinforce this virtuous circle of optimism: back to step one.

白话

信心对经济的影响其实很简单:大家觉得未来经济会好,就会花钱、投资,经济就真的好了。消费者乐观,买的东西多了,GDP就上去;企业看到需求涨,就扩大生产、多招人,这又推高GDP;新员工有了钱也去消费,形成良性循环。媒体再一报道,大家更乐观,循环又从头开始。所以信心能自我实现,关键是要让这个循环转起来。
