ByteDance Trader Earns 30 Million: CPI and Non-Farm Data Are Not Market Noise

On July 5, Leto Bao, the protagonist of "ByteDance Trader Earns 30 Million," reviewed his journey of making 30 million in the U.S. stock market at Binance Square. He stated that CPI, non-farm payrolls, and Federal Reserve policies are macroeconomic factors, while earnings season reflects the performance of specific companies or industries and also indicates changes in the macroeconomy. Leto Bao noted that the CPI price index is one of the key indicators monitored by the Federal Reserve. A high CPI typically indicates significant inflationary pressure, while a low CPI may reflect deflationary pressure. The Federal Reserve's long-term goal is to maintain inflation around 2%, representing a moderate inflation environment, which implies slow currency depreciation and relatively healthy investment, consumption, and credit activities. Non-farm data also influences market judgments. There is a certain correlation between overheating employment and inflation, but the relationships among macroeconomic indicators are complex and not simply linear. The Federal Reserve is responsible for formulating economic policies related to interest rates and adjusts these policies to support the U.S. economy. Leto Bao believes that CPI, non-farm data, Federal Reserve policies, and earnings seasons should not be viewed merely as "noise"; they all hold significant reference value. He mentioned that he previously overlooked the interest rate hike environment when investing in Nvidia, resulting in a substantial account drawdown, thus emphasizing the need to consider macroeconomic factors in investment decisions. Leto Bao, a former employee of ByteDance, is known as the "ByteDance Stock Trader." He reportedly made approximately 30 million RMB in profits by investing in the AI storage sector and subsequently resigned. The story began when he noticed an unusual price increase while buying hard drives on Pinduoduo, prompting him to research data storage demand and heavily invest in related stocks.
