Introduction: In the new century, many factors will influence global finance. Meanwhile, the role of government in financial market has been increasingly weakened. Furthermore, with the concentration of financial assets into the U.S., the global economy is more and more dominated by few rich people. As a result, global finance has taken on a new look: global economic and financial integration, global excess liquidity, sharp increase of global financial assets, intense concentration of wealth, continuing imbalance of global economy and finance, and so forth. All of the above will have impact on our investment decisions.
