China Storms Back To Put Things Back In Order, Says Willing To Buy Debt Of Crisis Nations

Tyler Durden's picture




 

Well, that was a brief hiccup for the ponzi scheme. Luckily, the market has forgotten that it priced in China bailing out Europe two days ago so it is time the vacuum tubes are reminded. From Bloomberg: "China's NDRC says China using foreign reserves to support investment abroad; NDRC Vice Chairman says in transcript of remarks on website double-dip recession abroad is “avoidable,” willing to buy bonds of sovereign-debt crisis nations. National Development and Reform Commission Vice Chairman Zhang Xiaoqiang spoke in an interview with the media in Dalian today, according to transcript distributed on the planning agency’s website today." EURUSD predictably soars... for at least a few more minutes, when we start the whole bailout rotation all over again, first with Russian, then Brazil, etc, etc. In the meantime, what all this means, read the post by Dylan Grice on how to deal with a whole world gone pathlogically rogue, and willing to lie and cheat in order to preserve the status quo.

Is it not natural that under the guidance of the US, the world order is rogue world order?

All your examples are of "hard" assets or producing assets. No paper promises in there (ie: bonds). They may buy a bit of sovereign paper, but really, do you think the Chinese are that stupid to load up on the world's paper supply to watch it all burn? They'll continue to buy hard/producing assets, until they have to refocus on the issues at home which are certain to arise as the global system continues to become unglued.

At least the Chinese people won't mind paying for the wealth of the western world.

The Chinese have plenty of money to spare for everybody!

They just love to work like slaves to make plastic crap for people who make 50 times more money in order to make sure the are rich enough to pay for the plastic crap.

I used to think about the Chinese as poor exploited people but it's pretty clear they just love to work their asses off for peanuts.

I'm sure their "work ethic" has nothing to do with fear of starvation and destruction/seizure of agricultural land by a rapacious Central Government bent on enslavement of it's own people to enrich their elites.

Sorry to interrupt your racist rant, please don't let facts about the common people get in the way of your hatred of yellow people.

For fucks sake people their government is essentially the Nazi Germany of modern Asia complete with slave labor plants. If they weren't restrained by the US and to a lesser extent Russia I think they might be just as imperial as well. Quit blaming the common people for the decisions of the elites.

If he represents the Chinese top Oligarchy he speaks for the greatest creditor nation of the world, the greatest Oil consumer, the greatest steel consumer and the greatest exporter of industrial goods to the west. Now...if you add up all those facts...you are looking at a giant, maybe a young giant that has grown too fast, has clay feet etc., but a giant none the less, and to boot with a vested interest that his export markets don't collapse. As then, all his fiat credit reserves are worth NOTHING. 

I think you can give them credit to  know where their bread is buttered and where they should spend their pile of accumulated fiat wealth. In the dire circumstances created by the corrupt Oligarchs of their debtor clients.

How the broken, ponzi market reacts is not really his concern...but yours...

Falak, you're aiming ther right direction. However you missed the real driver of thes Chinese leadership, living.

If China doesn't keep their growth under control, either direction, the people will rise up. And in China, a nation without Western/Christian values, when the people rise up they don't vote the leaders out of office. They pull a French Revolution.....

That is why the Chinese leadership has bought into the fiat system of bailing out the West. If they don't, to where do they run? They can't stay in China. And if they let the West collapse, no Western nation will take them and no third world country can protect them.

If you dobt this, recall the way the US got Pakistan onboard after 9/11; "if you are against us we will bomb you back into the stone age". (paraphrased only in sentence structure, "we will bomb you back into the stone age" is a direct quote)

Behind the scenes, International Politics is far far closer to a La Cosa Nostra Meeting than the stage play that is the UN.

in my book China in not scared of US power. The last Seventy years have proven this since 1949 upto Vietnam. 

China is a centrally controlled political system. It will never surrender to a people's revolution. It controls it at all levels. If there is an economic down turn it will clamp down on the depressed regions. Period. Like North Korea does.

La Cosa Nostra in China is the Communist Oligarchy. Not O'bammy's CIA.  They run their own country. They will run their region as US power declines. This country is not a push over. Take your rose tinted glasses off. China will make its voice felt, what ever happens in the West. Those empty cities are their expression of local muni "irrational exuberance" in a country that has enjoyed 10% growth rates over more than a decade. Its a young country and has no hang ups like the Japanese, who were defeated in 1945 and aging.

   You gotta love this. China has grown wealthy by selling products we do not really need back to us for decades. In order to maintain our unsustainable lifestyle of decadence and prance around in Imagationaland we had to resort to printing paper out of thin air and issuing growing debt which is purchsed by China with our own money.  They in turn do the same with Europe because their wealth comes from feeding the lifestyle of luxury with their slave labor but none realize that is the fulcrum shifts back toward equilibrium eventually the middles class of the EU & U.S. (AS CONFRIMED BY DATA) shows more and more citizens simply are out of money. This can only end in war.

Anyone who is not part if the cultural insanity that currenly infects our halls of power knows that bail-outs are just another hit for the junkie, it solves nothing and wastes money.

Therefore, China will not do full on bail-outs. It will be: "here is 30% of what you asked for at 100% interest, and we get our pick of real estate in your capital city. You can have more when we think you're headed in the right direction and that will come at 150% interest", and so on.

Kenneth Lieberthal director of the John L. Thornton China Center states on Yahoo's Daily Ticker that: "When China sees a diplomatic opportunity they may put a little money behind it and reap some diplomatic benefits,"  "I wouldn't be surprised if they do buy some [Italian debt], I will be surprised if they buy a lot."

If  he's right then I don't see China's intervention as much reason for optimism for a Chinese bailout of Europe as I think it will take a lot more than a token diplomatic gesture bond purchase to rescue the Eurozone.
