AsiaPac Stocks, FX Tumble As China Devalues Yuan Most In 4 Weeks, Sees "No Need For Massive Economic Stimulus"
Losses from the US session extended following comments in one of the government's official mouthpieces that "China doesn't need massive stimulus." A BoNZ rate cut (blaming China's devaluation) sent Kiwi tumbling, Ringgit hit a fresh 17 year low against the USD, Japanese stocks collapsed over 650 points so far, and Chinese stocks are opening notably lower. Volume remains de minimus (99% below average) in Chinese futures trading as China devalues the Yuan by the most since Aug 13 and injects another 80 billion Yuan liquidity.
US weakness did not help but once this hit early on in the Asia session...

Just your everday ordinary price discovery.
Perhaps Helicopter Ben Schmoemanke could assist in this price discovery over in Asia?
WAR BITCHEZ
This makes sense. Why bother to spend all the reserves with a calm, orderly devaluation? Why not just let it rip? Gonna get there anyway.
Reserves are there for when you don't want your currency under pressure. Better things to buy.
Like gold.
KABOOM
And what would the Libor rigging be compaired to their devaluation?
How does ZIRP compaire to their devaluation?
We're doing shit that is way way worse and we're doing it already for a shitlong time.
I even don't understand why markets are going down! Because all it means is that everybody will soon be printing more money. And that's also called a devaluation.
The dollar and the euro already devalued 25% in 7 years time!!
Thank god for the deflation spiral or we'd be in a world of hurt right now.
China's growing at 4%. They will be stimulating very soon.

Great freelance work opportunity for anyone... Work for three to eight h a day and profit in the range of $5000-$12000 each month... Weekly payments... Here is what i do... www.earnmore9.com
Every bit of money they inject into the market is a T-Bill that they have sold. Looks like they are on track for $100B+ in sales for this month.

No. Their 'Foreign Reseves' are NOT simply a horde of US Treasuries.
Neither is what is being injected into the equities markets doesn't encompass the interventions.
The Government and govenment owned/managed corporations are borrowing out of their own commercial Banking system such as it is.
...Leverage, derivatives, rehypothecation -and short selling.
Don't listen to what they say.
Watch and use your reason -and your imagination.
There are many ways to counterfeit and lie, and this is a war between countefeiters and liars.
It is clear that you have not been trained in the intelligence services. Making inferences on limited data but understanding the objectives of your combatant.
Your statment isn't even formed into a refutation only a different assertion that supports a New York world view.
Watching the great global unwind is quite surreal..
SELL! SELL! SELL! before it is all gone.......

Does that work for (zombie) banks?

Things will continue to become increasingly unhinged the closer we get to the end.
Then...POOF! Order out of chaos.
Well, that de-escalated quickly.
Dive, dive, dive.
China doesn't need massive stimulus because China will be invading Alaska.

Time to sell mor treasuries. Prease call Belgium and unroad dis crap!
This is clearly reflective of Pluto in China's 2nd House. Total destruction.
I believe it is also in their first, third and fourth house. Ask Xi.
collapse Mr Author- no if some dopey central bank increases the market 7 per cent for no good reason anyone whos half smart will look at profit taking the next day
Dow down tomorrow 2000 points.
And the earth is hallow.
If that happens I can retire ;-)
And you are short ___________? Please fill in da' blank as I'd hate for you to retire alone!
XLF...financial services index. Out-of-the-money puts for more punching power. Major leverage if you've got the balls to bet against the Fed and risk losing it all.
Boat drinks, bitches!!
Tick tock, tick tock...
Me too.
The Earth is holy? It could be hollow. That is a fair debate. However, holy? I seriously doubt that ..
Now according to some analysis and interpretation of Elliot Wave Theory, the Dow could be down as much as 5000. Very, very soon .. (like before the end of the month.)
Elliott Wave? I suppose you believe in the tooth fairy as well?
Kondratieff Waves make more sense.
HeeeHeeee they must have listened to Fink. Fools.
It smells like victory
"Do-Not-Panic!!!
I've talked to my people, your all knowing, all seeing, all everything, benevolent, altruistic government bureaucratic official regulatory bodies (in concert with central banking cartels worldwide) have this all under control. Don't sell, you need to be BUYING!" - Wang Krammer
And one day we will wake up and none of the fiat currency will be worth anything.
What? Everyone's selling? Then BUY! BUY! BUY! Now everyone is buying? Then Sell! Sell! Sell!

Good luck!
that last sentence doesn't make sense to me. if one merely wanted to weaken one's currency one would simply buy usd assets ala japan. the only thing that makes sense is that the yuan is wanting to crash due to debauchery and outflows but they are supporting it in a controlled descent.
I don't know if you guys saw the high entropy (not volatility) on S&P futures and SPY ETF since 2:22:22 pm until the close but heavy hands were very present. Ask nanex about it. geez is frightening, someone is loading for a 2-3 day swing with high range
contract rollover coming
Longest, most bearish pattern I have ever seen - the current 4 year long China H-Shares coil-breakout-reversal. It'll go from 9600 to 6000, minus 40% more, and will drag world indices down with it. Click the monthly to see the 1st half of the collapse pattern as well as what the last half of the disaster will look like, after western debt-binge banking policies have been attempted by centrist-thinking ChiComs:

It seems that the members of investing.com are in unison. It can't get more bearish then already is: 100%.
I forgot to say. B_T_F_D
China props its market through next Thursday and then it doesn't. "Year of the Sheep" - very appropriate.
What the hell is the price of Gold doing in the rest of the World ???
Looks like the prunge protection team is on the nikkei. Will they have enough steam? Oh, the drama.
It's all Tim Cook's fault. If Apple would have shown a rounder square 6" iPhone, stocks would be up 5%.
Apple didn't go high end enough with a Hermes leather band. I mean a $1 piece of stitched leather selling for $1100 isn't bourgeoisie enough. It should have been a vinyl band selling for $5000.
I like people saying it is awesome because it is the cheapest product Hermes has ever produced. IT'S A FUCKING LEATHER WATCH BAND MADE IN CHINA WITH A HERMES LOGO STAMPED ON THE INSIDE!!!
For $1100 it should be made of the belly skin of baby seals clubbed to death by Bildebergers.
but it unlocks a Hermes watch face for the Apple watch.... WELL HOLY SHIT, A GRAPHIC MADE IN ADOBE ILLUSTRATOR SURE MAKES IT WORTH $1100. Hell make it $2200 for allowing the graphic to switch from a black background to a white one.
There is stupid and them there's iStupid.
iDidn't see enough to make me rush out and buy any new iApple toys.
and a good, supporting tweet:

INFIDELS,KOMRADES,remain calm,the central commitee is in firm control of the market! please look for further instructions in the coming days as your leaders are tracking down and rounding up suspicious short sellers and other related activities against the state.
They are also going after tall sellers. And sellers of average height.
Yes, I have been waiting for this all day. Explosions tomorrow and two trading days until Shemitah. I hope these Zionist banking pricks expose themselves to the world because they just can't help themselves. This isn't China's fault either, that the western media over hyped a major stimulus, they set themselves up.
I agree with you, China is a follower - not a leader.
They depend on a lot of things, one of which is the American consumption market, which has hit a wall. And on top of that, they are dealing with their own 'tech mania' bubble like we did in 1999 - only worse. Scary part is that the heads say they have the 2nd strongest economy on the planet, so what does that say about us?
So help me out here, China good or China bad? Or..is it all the Jew's fault? Which is it?
Those damm chinesejews of course. .........................................................sarc
The Chinese are known as "The Jews of the Orient" - look it up.

You can't help yourself. You want to live beyond your means? The banks will loan you the money. At interest.

Looks like China found another buyer of 80 Billion T-bills...

So more Chinese chemical stockpiles get blown up overnight, news in the morning.
Shit blowing up in China is the new normal. Oh, and then another North American pipeline...

Welcome to central banking theory.
No prob. China's gonna let foreign central banks onshore into the Yuan market.

Where is the PPT?
Or are they all asleep right now and won't get going until near the opening bell in New York at 9:30am?
Always love to see a currency like the NZD hammered for having a 2.75% rate versus a currency sitting at a zero percent rate along with 19 trillion in debt!
Hey bankers stop trying to make chicken salad out of chicken shit. Let this mother crash so we can have a real recovery based on fundamentals.
hasn't stopped the usual BoJ overnight ramp of e-mini on relatively low volume. Looks like nothing was happening and then K-Hen must have rolled out of bed and sent a blistering call across the Pacific to get some Asian action.
Now there is a bubble - the Yen is the biggest costume party on the planet
Li 'Superman' Ka-shing has completed his move to pull up stakes in China and Hong Kong with the merger of his last asset in HK, Cheung Kong Infrastructure Holdings with Power Assets Holdings.
Best indicator yet that the writing on the wall is not grafitti.
So, let me see if I completely get this...first, China devalues CHY, twice! Then they intervene directly in the FX market to defend the CHY. Now they are devaluing again? I don't get it. Devalue, then spend billions upon billions on: "Oh crap, we didn't mean to devalue that much, we need to buy" and then devalue again? Where is the logic here? Can someone explain?
it's all bullshit
I am from EU and I can tell you that China is buying everything here very fast: "property, companies etc.". This all seems to be accelerating for the last few months. So you ask what is going on? I am not so sure yet, but if you consider all the dots, like China removing the dollar from oil trade, it does seem that China is finally ready (or perhaps does not have any other option now, in the face of the USA and EU deflation) to wean itself off the dollar, even despite of all the risks.
Another article claims that one of the reasons may be that gold has run out and China cannot buy more gold from the West (which they considered as the most important compensation for being paid the worthless dollar). Quote:
"China has sold $100 billion worth of Treasury bonds over the last two weeks. Before they sold these, they devalued their yuan by about 5% which is the same thing as making their dollar holdings worth 5% more in yuan …so they increased their sale by the equivalent of $5 billion! Please understand the following because it is VERY important, we have not experienced hyper inflation in the U.S. because the debt was always “sterilized”. We actually exported the inflation to other nations and as long as they did not sell the actual dollars (if they sold Treasuries), the trade remained sterilized. It was reported Friday China had actually sold their dollars realized from the Treasury sales for …you guessed it YUAN! This drove the yuan up versus the dollar so China added even more to their trade. Brilliant!"
The rest of the article is in the link below.

Not the same.
Devalue Yuan is good for their export based economy.
The billions of Treasuries sold are to support their banks and their internal markets.

And.... US futures are UP! Makes PERFECT sense!!
These have all been on a long downward spiral - nothing new.
Look at 3-5 year pricing and they are all on a long slide down.
I love it,
China Devalues the Yuan and dumps more US junk off its balance sheet.
Question, who is stupid enough to buy it and
when will the stupid stop buying it?
