Chinese TV to investors: dump the dollar
2007-11-18

#6  Or it could be some Chinese MSM idiot who didn't get the memo. I agree with GP0723, the run on the dollar is probably over for now. But I look for the Chinese to try again next October, as described in the other dollar thread.

#5  It would be wonderful for us if they do dump their dollars now. They would lose a ton of money in the deal, and we would be far more insulated if their economy nose dives.

#3  Very poor timing. Technical analysis indicates that the $USD bottomed on Wed, Nov 14 against the Euro at .68 and the US dollar index also set its final lows recently.

There is virtually no one left to jump on this bandwagon and as is typical in financial markets, once a trend becomes accepted as the conventional wisdom a reversal is on the way.

Watch how this performs over the next few weeks for confirmation:

#2  Since China's economy seems to be entirely based on export, I think this is a great idea. Is this how you control inflation in a 2rd world shithole?

#1  Chinese TV equals government TV, so this sounds like the government has made some 'investements' that benefit from getting other suckers to dump their dollars.
