There is a large number of Chinese companies listed on the HK market.
Having got ourselves into a debt-induced economic crisis, the only permanent way out is to reduce the debt – either directly by abolishing large slabs of it, or indirectly by inflating it away.

This doesn't make great reading, probably no huge surprise to anyone though.

A collision with the United States now seems inevitable. It is therefore important to understand the forces driving China, and it is time for STRATFOR to review its analysis of China.
An Inherently Unstable Economic System
China has had an extraordinary run since 1980. But like Japan and Southeast Asia before it, dramatic growth rates cannot maintain themselves in perpetuity.
STRATFOR sees a race on, but it isn’t a race between the Chinese and the Americans or even China and the world. It’s a race to see what will smash China first, its own internal imbalances or the U.S. decision to take a more mercantilist approach to international trade

Great Power Rivalry. China's Role as America's Creditor
"From Export Juggernaut to a Credit Addict"
by Mike Whitney http://www.globalresearch.ca/index.p...t=va&aid=18516
"China is headed for trouble. It's economy is reeling from overinvestment, underconsumption, and razor-thin profit margins. That's a tough mix in the best of times; and these aren't the best of times. When the bubble starts to unwind; defaults will increase, consumption will drop and economic activity will slow to a crawl. That will force the renminbi to rise whether the Party bosses like it or not.
China's business model is deeply flawed. The domestic market needs to expand so there's less dependence on exports. Personal consumption is the key, which means that wages and living standards will have to rise. The government needs a wealth-distribution plan--like the New Deal--to increase demand and create a thriving middle class. And that's the rub, because the class war goes on in China just as it does in United States.
Kind Regards

Amazing!
According to the People's Bank of China, China's foreign exchange reserves hit a new high of 2.4471 trillion U.S. dollars at the end of March. That's up 25 percent from last year. The PBOC says China's foreign exchange reserves increased 48 billion U.S. dollars in the first quarter, compared to a gain of 126.5 billion U.S. dollars in the fourth quarter.
US $13 trillion DEBT
China $2.45 trillion CASH

Danger signs all too real for China
the only two countries to have accumulated such large foreign exchange reserves, relative to global GDP, were the United States in 1929 and Japan in 1989".
