昨天Z/ X C那个讲话,今天奥巴马就有反应。。注意他的用词。仔细体会下。
BEIJING, China -- China, flexing some of its might as a growing economic power, has suggested overhauling the global monetary system by boosting the use of an alternative to the U.S. dollar.
As the largest holder of U.S. debt, China has expressed concern about its investment if the dollar should collapse.
On Monday the governor of the People's Bank of China proposed expanded use of an alternative -- the International Monetary Fund's SDR, or Special Drawing Right, an accounting unit based on the euro, Japanese yen, pound sterling and U.S. dollar.
"Special consideration should be given to giving the SDR a greater role," Zhou Xiaochuan said Monday.
Wider use of SDRs would ease dependence on any one currency and limit the effects of a single country's fiscal policies, Zhou said.
For Americans, that could mean higher interest rates for loans of all types, including mortgages and credit cards.
China's suggestion comes ahead of next week's Group of 20 economic summit in London. The G-20 nations represent 85 percent of world's gross domestic product.
Though the statement reflects China's unease with the long-term prospects of the dollar, it was not a major factor in the currency market on Tuesday, said Kathy Lien, director of currency research, at Global Forex Trading.
"I don't think market is reacting to [Zhou's comments], because the dollar is rising, not weakening," she said.
In his news conference on Tuesday, U.S. President Barack Obama said he didn't believe there is a need for a global currency. "I would just point out that the dollar is extraordinarily strong right now. And the reason the dollar is strong right now is because investors consider the United States the strongest economy in the world with the most stable political system in the world," Obama said.
China has an estimated $2 trillion in foreign reserves and is the United States' largest creditor, having bought more than $1 trillion of its debt.
Despite its concerns, Beijing will keep buying Treasuries, even as it keeps a close eye on their value.
"Investing in U.S. Treasury bonds is an important component of China's foreign currency reserve investments," Hu Xiaolian, deputy governor of the People's Bank of China said this week. "We are naturally relatively concerned with the safety and profitability of U.S. government bonds."
Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao expressed similar concerns earlier this month.
"We have loaned a e amount of money to the United States," Wen said. "Of course, we are concerned about the safety of our assets" and "call on the United States to honor its word and stay a credible nation and ensure the safety of Chinese assets."
Washington is spending trillions of dollars to shore up the the U.S. economy, including a stimulus package, bailouts of top American industries and the purchase of billions of dollars in bad bank assets.
Those programs could undermine the dollar, making China's investments less valuable.
But China's purchase of U.S. debt helps, in a sense, to underwrite Beijing's success. By helping to underpin the economy of a top trading partner, China ensures that there will be a market for its consumer goods.作者: 江水海水 时间: 2009-3-25 23:30 作者: jerry-gann 时间: 2009-3-25 23:33
"I would just point out that the dollar is extraordinarily strong right now. And the reason the dollar is strong right now is because investors consider the United States the strongest economy in the world with the most stable political system in the world,"
People’s Bank of China Governor Zhou Xiaochuan said the world’s third-largest economy is recovering and contrasted his government’s “decisive” action with delays in other countries.
“Leading indicators are pointing to recovery of economic growth,” Zhou said in an article on the central bank’s Web site today. The government “has taken prompt, decisive and effective policy measures, demonstrating its superior system advantage when it comes to making vital policy decisions,” he said.
Zhou called this week for the creation of a new international reserve currency, signaling concern at the dollar’s weakness and China’s ambitions for a leadership role at next week’s Group of 20 summit. Finance Minister Xie Xuren urged world leaders today to step up economic stimulus to restore market confidence and to fend off trade protectionism.
“China has clearly been moving ahead of the rest of the G- 20 in terms of thought leadership and laying the groundwork for what will be discussed,” said Glenn Maguire, chief Asia-Pacific economist at Societe Generale SA in Hong Kong. “China responded extremely quickly and with great vigor to the slowdown.”
China’s urban fixed-asset investment jumped 26.5 percent in the first two months from a year earlier, new lending quadrupled in February and vehicle sales rose 25 percent as the government implements a 4 trillion yuan ($585 billion) stimulus package. The Shanghai Composite Index has jumped 30 percent this year.
Systemic Risk
G-20 leaders convene in London April 2 to find ways of strengthening international regulation in the aftermath of the worst financial crisis since the 1930s.
China is becoming more assertive on international monetary and economic issues as the G-20 summit approaches. Earlier this month, Premier Wen Jiabao said he was worried about the value of China’s Treasury holdings and asked the U.S. to guarantee their safety.
Zhou said today that governments should consider giving mandates to finance ministries and central banks to use extraordinary means to contain systemic risk “in order to allow them to act boldly and expeditiously without having to go through a lengthy or even painful approval process.”
U.S. Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner called this week for expanded government powers to deal with failing non-bank financial institutions such as American International Group Inc.
Today, Geithner is expected to ask Congress to bring large hedge funds, private-equity firms and derivatives markets under federal supervision for the first as part of a revamp of U.S. financial rules, administration officials said on condition of anonymity.
Decline Curbed
On China’s economy, Zhou said measures already taken have produced “preliminary” results and the “rapid decline in growth has been curbed.”
Besides the stimulus package, China has cut interest rates five s since September, has offered incentives for exporters and has stalled the gain in its currency to achieve an economic growth target of 8 percent.
The Shanghai Composite Index gained 3.1 percent to the highest level in six weeks today. The gauge is the best performer this year among 89 benchmark measures tracked worldwide by Bloomberg.
Hong Kong billionaire Li Ka-shing said in Hong Kong today that investors with cash should consider buying equities and real estate, adding China’s economic recovery will be the “fastest.”
Global Recession
China’s growth slid to the weakest pace in seven years in the fourth quarter as trade slumped because of the global recession.
SAIC-Iveco Hongyan Commercial Vehicle Co., a Chinese truckmaker, said today it is winning orders from local miners for deliveries as early as the third quarter, indicating demand may be recovering.
“We are receiving truck orders for their operations in Southern Africa and India,” Matthew Wang, general manager of SAIC-Iveco Hongyan’s Kairui sales center, said in an interview during the Asian Mining Congress in Singapore. “Our business is increasing as copper prices rise.”
China will make more cuts to export taxes on textiles, garments, steel, non-ferrous metals, petrochemicals and electronics from April 1 to help revive key industries, the State Council said yesterday.
“Chinese policy makers seem increasingly confident that their response to the sharp fall in external demand has successfully limited the damage to overall growth,” said Brian Jackson, senior strategist at Royal Bank of Canada in Hong Kong.作者: 天威太阳 时间: 2009-3-26 21:19

在奥巴马的庞大救市资金已创人类历史记录之际,美国的失业率也升至25年来最高,由此折射出美国经济危机的程度。而奥巴马动用巨额国家资金救助私人企业,并倾向银行国有化的一揽子方案,则被经济学家视为“饮鸩止渴”,将把美国经济“毒化”。
