Mark Mobius: Positive Outlook for Emerging Markets

China may attack India: So it may pretend to do but it is a ridiculous assertion that it could in any way win in a country with a much younger militarily enabled population of similar size which has its own nuclear deterrent and a large well trained fighting army.
Getting troops across the Himalyas would also take some doing for China and just where would they start in such an immense country as India?
The US couldn't defeat Iraq nor Afghanistan and the Pakistanis can't defeat the Taleban because the native people were prepared to fight, as in Vietnam, and as they would be in India. It makes no sense whatsoever for China to fight India although it might threaten to do so to keep its population under control. As in India and Russia, the problem for China is its Moslem peoples.

Its all about Government market manipulation hand in hand with the banks. So Banks should win but watch out if they don't.

My experience of charts is that there is a certain amount of self fulfilment in them. Right now they all look to me ready for more downside across the board, but are very useful nonetheless.
