I can only give an opinion. Maybe someone can prove or disprove what I say. The Chinese economy is growing at 7% or so IF one just calculates the investment into the infrastructure. I cannot prove this, but building small cities that remain unoccupied, building regional/international airports in towns/areas that cannot support them, building railroad lines to nowhere and state of the art rail stations in backwoods towns, etc. is all good for the economy when you make the original investment. Thus 7% (or higher) "growth". My question is how do you factor in all that "idle" over capacity? I would think one would have to subtract from GDP, but I am not sure. I do have some "far out their" speculation on why they are doing all this, but do not want to state it publicly. Maybe there is someone with expertise in this area reading your board that can comment on the above? RDK.
