QUOTE(Hansel @ Oct 23 2015, 09:38 PM) OKay,... demand poor from China, that's why the PBOC needs to initiate more stimulus. Demand poor means oil price can't go up. Hence, it's oil price drops causing the PBOC to cut rates. Or you could look at it this way, China decreases rate could be a way to deter the US from raising it's rates. We know China owns majority of US debts. So in a way, they would want to control US.

QUOTE(AVFAN @ Oct 25 2015, 01:55 PM) what china is doing is obvious - they will do what it takes to keep >7% gdp growth. devalue, cut rates to allow cheaper rmb to export more. if it gets worse, they will devalue again. this put downward pressure on currencies of major trading partners be it rm, aud or sgd. i missed this forecast made a month ago, looking realistic now. So they are indirectly trying to prevent US from raising rates?

QUOTE(Showtime747 @ Nov 12 2015, 11:09 AM) Following the "rumours" last time, the update says the "domestic issues" will be solved by 1H16 when "the company" passes the debt to other companies and wind down the exposure. This is the only worry by foreign funds now. Other fundamentals like current account, budget deficit, inflation, unemployment, etc will go back to the "old normal". By then, RM will back to stable like past few years and only the usual external factors like oil price, USD rates hike, Euro/Japan/China QE will affect the RM drastically The above is from my "source", who predicted <4.00 by 1H16. Sounds plausible to me 1H16 = 16/11 or 16/12?

QUOTE(MGM @ Nov 24 2015, 08:15 AM) So China is selling US treasuries when USD is high and buying emerging countries' govt bonds when their currencies at their lowest? That must be one of the reasons for the uptick of these currencies. Maximum profit?
