  • Implications Of China's New Focus On Growing Domestic Consumer Demand: Miners, ADRs And ETFs [View article]
    When a person or country consume more than it produce, that is over consumption. When going into debt is not short term or when the debt is carried beyong a single cycle or when there will be no way of paying out the debt, that is irresponsible.

  • Real Estate Bubbles In The U.S. And China - Difference And Implications [View article]
    Every Chinese are aspire to own property or properties. The demand of properties fuel the price explosion. Will the real estate bubble burst? I hope so, as much as 80-90% of the Chinese population hope so. If that happen, they will buy or upgrade themselves to bigger and better accomodations.
    The 65-80 million of empty properties are own by less than 10% of the people whom do not know what else to do with their money. Will I shed a tear if they lose money?

    The Yuan is at least 5-10 years away from becoming a major reserve currency. But for China, 5-10 years is a very short time.

    The weaker Yen is hurting both Japan and Australia. Japanese importer have to pay more for Australian resources, Australian resources became more expensive to Japanese buyers. A lose-lose situation.

    Two surveys in Japan indicate 71-75% of Japanese people decry the mayor's view about " comfort women". Most Japanese are great people. There are a few jerks in Japan as there are a few jerks in China and the US or anywhere else.

    The student is right. If one has a billion Yen, he will still have a billion Yen when the Yen will worth 1/2 as much. Is that the reason why people want to put their cash into stocks before their cash value get any lower?

    The weaker Yen will help the exporters, but trade was not Japan's problem until this year. The weak Yen reduce people's savings and that will not increase people's consumption. If Japan's growth is at someone else expense, it will not be long lasting.
