真所谓墙倒众人推,美元对多种货币都创下了新低,官方的,各国央行抛售美元储备,其他投机者就更不用说了,做空美元,买入贵金属,原油等保值工具。连我这个小小的投机分子,也趁机踩上一脚。爽啊!如果,18日真的如市场预期的那样减息,情况可能会更恶劣。+ i1 O, _& |' q V

An option for diversifying away US$ risk from personal experience - I went to Beijing to open a premium account with the Hong Kong Bank which allows me to operate the account globally.

China seemingly insatiable demand for copper,iron ore, nickel and other metals seems set to continue. it would be a Chinese economic slowdown, not a collapse of house prices in USA, that would spell bad news for the mining sector. 7 Q1 L& g* S) p# S$ P

RMB is the worst currency possible. It went straight down into the toilet along with the USD. It was 1/5 CND 5 years ago and it's less than 1/7 now. Plus, RMB cannot be exchanged both ways freely, making it actually worse than the USD.

But you also need to see that there is a higher return rate on RMB assets. Think a about it. If you bought 1 yuan stock in Chinese stock market 1.5 year ago, now it will end up with 4 yuan. at the same time TSX went up only 27%
