David, Regarding this Message 21272704 , it is merely an update. Before your return to BBR, many months ago i noted on this BBR that the philosophical discussion happening at high enough quarters on the mainland started on whether to replace Mao's pic with Sun's image ... I commented at the time that should the switch be done, ceremonies and all, then buy, buy more, followed by, of course, sell, sell everything. Message 19263962 September 2nd, 2003 (b) There will most likely be no symbolic revaluation of the Yuan vs. USD because there appears to be a power struggle within the Chinese political sphere that is gaining life of own. No one at this juncture can be seen to set off socio-economic instability. The issue on the surface is nothing more than whether Mao’s picture should come off the Tian An Men (Gate of Heavenly Peace) chinavista.com , to be replaced by picture of Sun Yat-sen sunyatsen.hawaii.org . Below the surface, the issue is status quo vs. more representative rule. The power struggle is between the old guard of the Jiang Ze-ming (ex-communist party chairman, current chairman of Central Military Commission) school and the current front-runner reformers of Hu Jin-tao (current communist party chairman) and Wen Jia-bao (Premier). I do not know what I am talking about when it comes to Chinese ruling politics. I merely listen to others better positioned, and nod my head in feigned understanding. Something I do think I know what I am talking about: should the reformers win, buy PRC stocks with abandon and without fear. Should the struggle drag out or drag into the open, stay away from PRC stocks. <<CCP>> ? nothing to do with much. It is all an issue of the direction of the Force. <<KMT>> should it be the impetus again for reform across the Chinese world as an agent/catalyst, why not, so be it, as it should. Pedigree is only a dog food to some (thankfully not all) folks living on your continent. Chugs, J P.S. The Maurice, CB, and brain_h, they know even less than I on some issues and enough matters, for they are not in touch with the Force, and most of the time, not even reality, and sometimes, not even what's for dinner. The problem is of course not that they do not know, it is that they believe they do know. But that is only a problem for them.
