job well done and very easy to follow ReplyHard Time for Soft Currencies [view article]
bmaclaverty: Interesting possibility--this option is always available--the U.S. has done it for the last sever years. I have not made an explicit study of bouts of competitive devaluations, so I cannot speak with any special knowledge of the subject. Just off the top of my head, if this kind of destructive practice did occur, it would most likely be on a regional basis. S.E. Asia, Latin America, Eastern Europe, etc. If this is the way it would play out, then the controlling forces would be the regional leaders. In Asia it is China, with Japan playing a more silent role. In Latin America, Mexico and Brazil are local leaders, but the U.S. is still the Monroe Doctrine practiticioner and would yield much influence. Eastern Europe is difficult for me to assess. The old Soviet Union members are now, for the most part, looking to Euroland, but some in the furtherest east (Bulgaria, Romania and all the absurdistans that populate western asia) are still under Russian influence to some degree.It's just a guess, but I think the real leaders of these regions could keep a lid on the kind of destructive practices you fear.
Best wishes,

Thanks for the comments, guys. Chance, good idea about using a symbolic language in a book about currencies. I'll get to work on it, soon. (:~)Ray Reply

Malaysia is a play similar to Brazil: they have oil and food, and one of the safest markets, comparable to australia and singapore. ReplyEmerging Markets With Low Valuations [view article]

I'd like to see the exchange rate adjusted returns as well. And to note also that Brazil was pretty much starting in the sub-basement to generate such returns. ReplyTotal Returns by Country Since March 2003 [view article]
Bespoke needs to go over to Gannett and hire an out-of-work copy editor to edit its copy. This is poorly written.What's being compared to what here? If the "MSCI World Index Local Currency" index is up 68%, how come the 22 listed components are up far more than 68% on a "total return" basis? Isn't this perhaps a story on currency inflation?
Fill in the gap in the logic here, I am not a mind reader. Reply

Interesting. Good stuff. How much of this is due to the currency exchange rates/weak dollar? Reply
