This is probably really big news.

I think “that’s all folks” is probably more accurate a headline…
Seems like China’s getting ready to dump its foreign currency reserves, and this is the first step.Report
Turn the lights out, the parties over. Maybe the CAD will finally reach its value.Report
Not sure whether it will actually get anywhere – the article also mentioned the Gulf States trying to set up some new currency like the Euro which would be one of the ones in the “currency basket” replacing the USD, and it takes a lot of time and negotiation to set up a unified currency like that if the Euro’s any example.Report
Is there any question that this will eventually happen, though? It shouldn’t be a shock. I’m not very well educated about economics, so I wonder: what sort of preparation should the US be doing for when this will happen?Report
Well if China starts dumping their US dollar reserve expect the trade deficit to decrease a lot.
Obviously this is due to the weakened financial state of the US from the last eight years of Democratic fiscal madness… wait…
Can we finally put the last shovel full of dirt on the myth of the Republicans being the party of fiscal responsability?Report
