Options Trader: Friday Outlook [view article]
The pollution point is well taken although I have never heard of a world class marathon runner not wanting to come to US for the olympics for fear of illness. As far as absolutes go, you are correct that we have larger absolute numbers, but exponential increase in demand from such low levels from China and India have been a main cause of inflation meanwhile they still have lower levels. As far as the debt question goes...China can absolutely call in all our debt if they want to see a plunge in the world economy, the dollar fall off the face of the earth which would be beneficial for them how? We are their second biggest importer, they need us as much if not more than we need them, so the theoretical argument about whether they should call in the debt is ludicrious.

User, per capita statistics are fantastic but do not accurately reflect the absolute demand (which is all the market cares about) that has skyrocketed for everything because of the sheer size of China and India. People are not asking the Chinese to live at a lower standard of life than other countries, we are stating matter of factly that increased demand has brought prices through the roof. Second, Chinese government might be tryin its darndest to keep inflation down, but the last numbers say they are failing miserably with record inflation. Finally, I only agree with one part of ur assertation that US policy has impacted inflation and is our divining into alternative energies n the chain effect that has had on the grains and other foodstuff(that when produced are the root of every food we eat) that has sent inflation for (go try and buy some milk see how much more expensive it is) a nice little ride. To say that China and Indian are not a major reason for inflation is to have no idea of economics, markets, or common sense. Apr 18 12:04 PM
