They will engineer the fall. Today the long bond got massacred. The feds will need to intervene by buying more long bonds.

As you know, the Chinese are on pins and needles. The Yuan will rise and the dollar will fall and both countries will do it behind the scenes.

It will work for the Chinese in the end anyway. In a practicle sense the Chinese need to import massive amounts of food going forward and raw materials. If the Yuan is strong it costs them less to import.

The Chinese got started on exports, but as they acheive wealth they will have to manufacture for what they can get, because everyone can manufacture, but only some countries have soft and hard commodities to export.

And the US is the bread basket of the world. We sell China food and they sell us manufactured goods.

I also think China is preparing to run the entire country on electricity i.e copper's rise in price.
