China is a having a truly monumental slow down, which makes sense as US and global buying is down. India has slown down big time.

I've personally caught a lot of crap when I bring up the old cliche about when the US catches a cold, the world catches pneumonia..

But what some folks can't seem to recognize is that trade deficits represent "manufacturer financing" on an international scale. And just like the "Big 3", when people stop buying and financing their cars, it's their business that suffers more than the consumers who buy their products. Those consumers can just either default on their loans, or refuse to upgrade.
