China Currency Manipulation Act...................

Per what the Pom-Pom wavers over under the porch, refer to it as:

Here's some more - "whacko, Stratfor-rag, Oliver Stone-esque conspiracy theory gibberish":

They think this doesn't exist:

Oil is being used as a Geopolitical Weapon to twist China's Arm to:

1. Re-peg...then ultimately free float their currency.

2. To come to the table and adopt free & fair trade policy's.

3. To stop their Sabre Rattling towards Taiwan & Japan; their Nuclear & Missile Technology support of North Korea, Iran etc.

4. To more effectively manage their growth, consumption & strategic acquisition of commodities as to not upset the economic and geopolitical balance in the world.

As I've said for a while; Oil is not presently trading upon it's underlying "real" fundamentals... nor is it going to be; in the future.

An Options Straddle strategy - leveraging "volatility" is the play in the Oilpatch...with a present negative bias on the economic & underlying fundamentals at current price levels.

Oil is unquestionably being used as a very, very effective Geopolitical & Economic Weapon of Mass Destruction...and we are most certainly embattled(that's the PC word...INTENSE COLD WAR is the "reality" word)with China ...and Oil, Currencies, Trade & Geopolitic's are certainly all inter-related.

For Goldbugs....we've been reading for a few years now - what's going to happen when the Chinese re-peg, or ultimately someday free float their currency.

Well that day is coming....better study the above link & get up to speed on all that's happening vis a vie - The Chinese Currency Manipulation Act et al...
