China & U.S. Play Chicken: Currency Manipulation

[Phead128]

The Fed just decided to print $600 billion dollars through "Quantitive Easing" or the American way of currency manipulation.

US manipulates currency

China manipulates currency

Japan manipulates currency

EVERYONE DOES IT!

The Fed is also manipulating to lower the USD, by monetary easing.

This monetary easing, is simply printing USD to buy their own debt. It is exactly the same with currency intervention, which is if you pour USD to the market, then USD will plunge.

So, in american's mind, they can do anything they want, but other countries must listen to them. In fact, they are just trying to move their crisis to China and other countries.

@halim181276 Everyone says the US can do what it wants, I believe that the US has become a slave to maintaining its kingdom. It is printing money to pay off its debt, by devaluing the dollar, it makes it easier to pay off its debt

Moreover, because the USD runs the world economy, it is too big to fail. The US is able to make all of its ridiculous pollicies solely because denying the US would be bad for the counties and the US. But because we keep trying to patch up rather than fix,itgetsworse

Here is a quote from USEconomy.``When the Fed does Quantitative Easing it is printing money. This causes the dollar to lose value and is inflationary, which in turn causes the Yuan to rise in value. Therefore, we manipulate the currency as much as the Chinese, making us hypocrites.``

Greed........greed..greed. this sums very well for US

China's currency is artificially propped up. Only a matter of time until it falls.

[liebstandarteadolf]

@FulinYu Nope, it will be sustained for as long as their is confidence in the Chinese currency. This confidence is here to stay for China's huge foreign currency reserve.

[FulinYu]

@liebstandarteadolf You need to understand how countries "control" their currency. You can't deny the laws of supply and demand, and the Yuan doesn't maintain its value simply because the Chinese government decrees it to be so.  -- If actual value is different from the "propped up" value of the Yuan, a market fall will happen. It's just basic econimics - sorry, it's true.

[liebstandarteadolf]

@FulinYu You've been fed too much neo-classical economic theory. And even by neo-classical standard, your statement only makes half a sense.

[FulinYu]

@liebstandarteadolf China is the number one country and currency on earth.

Europe Canada and US are stupid and bad. --Is that what you want me to say?

[liebstandarteadolf]

@FulinYu No, that's not my intention. I was trying to encourage you to incorporate some practicality into your theory. Little did you realise that in the real world, markets always fail. Perfect markets don't exist. Yet, the world goes on.

[FulinYu]

China currency will fall by corruption

China's economy to save the world, now, the United States do not need it anymore

[qq41068497]

The United States is the world's largest currency manipulator. Non-interference in others is also its own tight control. The United States as a harmful non-self-interest

[crossxlui]

Open market transactions, M1 & M2 increases, bond issuing, interest rate playing done by the federal reserve are all a form of currency manipulation (Supply side control over the US dollar). The pot is calling the kettle black?

[jjbarbados]

All do that in every direction.

The Euro and the Sterling pound are ficticiously high currencies.

The US had manipulated its currency and the commodities market for ages. Be honest, we had 15 countries with `hard currency` and the rest of the world

devalued working for pennies. The problem is, there are new actors in the World scene, no one is vitallike 30 years ago, the US and Europe should start working on a more worldwide currency and start sweating again.

[fabulerner]

The Gold standard had massive problems as well. You wackos don't know what you're talking about.

[FreeTheTruth1]

The FED needs to stop printing the dollars like there's no tomorrow. This is causing inflation. Now they want other countries to inflate their currency to meet their out of control printing of the dollars? The dollar is not even backed by gold anymore. This is so irresponsible.

[sugarpuddin88]

The Federal Reserve Bank is privately owned

The FED owes its duty to private shareholders!

America can no longer create money debt & interest free!

It's a criminal organization that caused 3 depressions in the 30's (google their retraction of money and the correlating collapse of biz & unemployment)

Then, the FEDs same shareholders bought up property and companies at pennies on a dollar!

The FED wants the USA to collapse! The FED is NOT part of the US Government!

[sugarpuddin88]

Every 15 months, the USA owes another trillion dollars against Gov expenses!

Prop up the bad guys with money!

Reward the mistakes!

Weve increased the Money Supply 70% since October!!!!!

Can you imagine?!

Bernanke refused to show up the other day before congress

Altogether, the worlds markets over the past four weeks saw $11 trillion worth of assets wiped out. This sum corresponds to virtually the entire annual gross national product of the US, or the European Union.
