Are U.S. Markets About to Get Drilled?

You have it backwards. China got itself into this mess with currency policy. Now it complains endlessly about an undervalued dollar. If they didn't behave this way, the "imbalances" would have corrected themselves already years ago.

The Brazilian Economy Is Recovering

Brazil's long-standing protectionism has done a great job insulating it from a lot of our current problems. Até logo

Chinese Retaliation - Detained Rio Executive Should Make Us Nervous

This bogus charge is yet another reason China should never have been permitted to join the WTO without conditions.

More Whining About the Dollar

Is anyone surprised? India basically sided with the Soviet Union in the past. Working with the US has only been out of mutual interest, and India is no ally.

Yes it's dependent on the US but Canada is one of few countries that can be a net exporter of both food and oil.

Really? Then why did they put 70% into a single asset?

Chinese Consumer Growth Could Hurt U.S. - Scotia

Well there's opportunity, if China actually paid for their vast theft of software, entertainment, pharm, and so on. The piracy rates in China are staggering compared to the US and much of the west.

China'a One-Birth Policy to Stifle Future Economic Growth

It's my understanding the one-birth policy is a farce. People can often avoid it by paying a penalty of one something like a bag of rice.

Why ETFs Are a Scam

OK, but how you can make a comparison to a closed fund? If people can't get into BZL then EWZ is one of the few choices left.

This is not accurate. They ruled in a case. The Supreme Court does not pass laws.

Is Obama Selling Military Secrets to China for Debt Forgiveness?

Why would the Chinese pay for the B-2 plans? Haven't they already stolen them?

Why Investors Must Own Gold

Careful what you wish for. You might miss US dominance. Europe and others complain about arrogant Americans ignoring their concerns. Why do they think China will treat them better? If they already kill their own dissidents, they won't give a crap about foreigners.

Will China End Its Co-Dependent Relationship with the U.S.?

Gosh I'm sick of hearing China complain.

They chose to intentionally deflate their currency beyond belief and restrict currency exchange. They chose to put 80+% into one bucket. They chose their reserve currency. If they wanted guarantees on their agency debt holdings, they should have bought treasuries with a smaller return. China has done all of this intentionally and then wants to portray a "poor China" image.

Last year my company started a fund to support earthquake victims in China. WHAT??! China is loaded with reserves. Why are we donating money?

Is the U.S. Dollar Headed for a Mighty Crash? Part I

Explain to me again why the US ever got into protected trade agreements with a totalitarian government like China. The US escorted them into the WTO with absolutely no conditions whatsoever. China has no qualms about stealing patented products, processes, intellectual property, pharmaceutical products, blocking US competition within China. What would the trade balance be like without this theft and fixed FX? Maybe "slightly" better?

Check out the latest consequence of their antics. Chinese counterfeit malaria drugs killing people and creating a "superbug" parasite.

Tell me where are the lawsuits? If a US company produced lead painted toys, they would be destroyed. Heck the EU grabbed serious money from MSFT and Intel for much less of an offense.
