    The WisdomTree Chinese Yuan Fund doesn't seem to be following the Yuan very closely ... based on my analysis, the fund has an approximately .69 correlation with the Yuan. Not very impressive.

    For comparison, a while back I did some analysis on the British Pound ETF and I think that had a perfect 1.00 correlation with the fund

    Thanks for a very useful article. With an Obama win likely, I am looking for a way to play stagflation. I thought the Swiss Franc might be a good place to put a portion of my growing cash position (45%) to work for both safety and income reasons. Your article gives me more ideas and options. My equity portfolio is heavily weighted to energy, commodities, and pipeline utilities; with a smaller exposure to technology and electric utilities. Currency ETFs will give a bit of diversification on the cash side. Reply

    Hey "Mr Germany" So which hedge fund/PE fund with $billions AUM (sorry Deutsche Marks, because the Germans are "tired" of the Euro) did you say you run again? I mean with your level of technical expertise in all things market and you incredible investing record -- the "pikers" must be throwing money at you to run, right?

    lol...

    The Indian Economy and Gold Imports [view article]
    My heartiest thanks to your extremely realistic situation of India as a whole. With my similar views, I had felt lonelier by the day and was almost like an outcast from my financial journalistic community who has been trained by their bosses to only look at the brighter sides of the corporate life. Well, I pray that this oncoming painful times positively and proactively stirs up the senses of our so-called upwardly mobile middle-class masses that have been intoxicated and numbed by the excessive consumerism spewed by rising income levels. Can you initiate a nation-wide dialogue in this direction? Reply

    Time will prove you wrong ... You have not seen the determination and dedication of the common people in this country.. India will continue to grow and prosper.. irrespective of the policy blunders of the central and state govts. And i will see you write about " How India withstood the global recession" soon. Reply

    The Indian Economy and Gold Imports [view article]
    I congratulate Mr. Kumar on writing such a wonderful assesment of Indian economy. He has the courage to call a spade a spade. I also disagree completely many views by other readers, who are basically over-optimistic about Indian economy and stocks. I am particularly taken aback by views of Mr. Nagesh and am addressing them sequentially here.
    First he talks about India's GDP growth, but the fact is that this growth means nothing. India may be growing at 7 or 8 percent and yet may end up in a ditch. What at the end of the day means is whether you are able to export more than you import or vice versa. Indian trade deficit is growing at 20% annum. Japanese
    economy is growing at a mere 1/4th the rate of India, but it adds $150 billion to itself every year. That's what counts. The emphasis on GDP is a game for business journalists, the people who don't understand economy and know only to take notes when the real economists speak. So please forget about India's "phenomenal" GDP growth. If GDP growth alone was the criteria, I dole out another another example; even Ethiopia is growing at
    8.4% this year. Does it mean that Ethiopian economy is stronger than all Europe, Japan, and US economies? Ha.

    Mr. Nagesh is also wrong about the corporate tax. Their collections prove nothing. Corporates are experts in running businesses, not in predicting economic cycles or movements of the markets. Having stake in the growth, they are usually blind to what sort of economic situations lie ahead. They feel the growth will go on and on. But this is not the case. There have been busts and busts around the world and the corporates which have been oblivious to them have literally lost their businesses. In the US during 1999-2000 the tax
    collections were strong, and yet the recession followed in the following year.

    Mr. Nagesh's harping on whether 60% or 70% of the Indian population is dependent on agriculture shows that he is just interested in oneupmanship, and has not imbibed the spirit of the article. Would it matter much if whether 6 members or 7 of his family went hungry? Will he argue about the exact number?
    The fact is that every two out of three Indians is directly or indirectly dependent on agriculture, and the bigger fact is that most of them are unhappy with the state of affairs. That's what counts most.
    Finally, if he thinks that the government and Indian businesses will give extra filliip to agriculture, probably he has not studied Indian agriculture. Agriculture is the last thing on anybody's mind, a reason why the problems have become so huge, so deeprooted.

    I again congratulate Mr. Kumar on writing a fair assessment on the Indian Economy. He is sending out the most honest views to the world. Kudos
    S. Gangadhar.
