Hi Craig,

Way to go! Thanks for the info re: Exchange Stabilization Fund financing.

Some interesting quotes from this AM's S. China Morning Post re: Hong Kong's monetary policy...

'Hands off' policy urged

scmp.com

"The pressures are still building on the
Hong Kong dollar and the perception of
over-valuation, which we feel is to some
degree overstated, is nevertheless going
to build,"

and...

"The markets are going to be surprised by
the severity and longevity of the Asian
currency crisis"

also, this quote from Chief Executive Tung Chee-hwa in another article in SCMP...

"'If we don't hold the peg, the
consequences are unimaginable.''

Something to keep an eye on.

Mark
