.Is it true currency will perform a "Spring scrimmage?" .</ P> <P> dollar plunged many countries to intervene in the exchange rate </ P> <P> 9 15, Wednesday, when the pointer go to Beijing 11:30, traders are suddenly aware of the super push up pay .dollar against the yen. .And because the rapid turnover enlarged list of retail level has been difficult to enter for the first time. .Day, the dollar closed at 85.55 against the Japanese yen, or 2.99%, nearly 5 months to record its biggest one day gain. .Difficult to understand is that just the day before the currency hit a 15-year low. .</ P> <P> alarming is that, then Japanese Finance Minister publicly confirmed wild Tianjia Yan, Japanese Finance Ministry had foreign exchange intervention, but declined to intervene in size. .Nevertheless, the yen has not been so out of sharp appreciation of fate. .As of last Friday's close, the U.S. dollar against the yen since January to close at 81.9,9 has fallen nearly 3%. .</ P> <P> sharp appreciation of the yen weakening exports and the economic slowdown home and less abroad, the Bank of Japan announced on October 5 inter-bank unsecured overnight call rate down to zero from 0.1% to 0.1%. .Not only is this the line to restart the first time since 2006, zero interest rate policy, is shot twice within 1 month intervene in currency markets. .Unfortunately, according to statistics, 1 October to 8 fall between the U.S. dollar against the yen is still about 2%. .</ P> <P> International Monetary Fund (IMF) Managing Director Dominique Strauss-Kahn said 7 days, as countries around the world lack of coordination between monetary policy, "currency war" may occur. .And if that is the "war" means that participants not only the yen side. .In fact, including the Korean won recently, the Australian dollar, Brazilian real, the euro and other currencies out of the unilateral strong market. .Abnormal rise in national currency, some countries have emitted the signal, or the central bank has intervened in the exchange rate. .Currency War has triggered! .</ P> <P> data, October 1 to 8, the euro gained 2.2% against the dollar, close to 8 months to high; Australian dollar rose 2.2% to 0.9851 total, a record 27 year high .level; dollar won, the dollar is down against the Thai baht were 1.8%, 1.5%. .Since the latter of which in one fell swoop hit its lowest level since August 2007. .</ P> <P> However, the Japanese central bank intervention in currency markets as a winter wildfire, a "currency war" has followed the smoke into the sky. .One South Korean government said that in order to prevent the inflow of foreign capital over the impact of won, want to strengthen the foreign exchange derivatives. .In view of potential volatility in currency markets recently, plans to intervene when necessary. .Statistics show that South Korea currently holds U.S. Treasury bonds has risen to the highest point since March this year, $ 39,300,000,000; 4, the Brazilian government called for the stability of the Brazilian real currency, increasing foreign investors for fixed income investments in Brazil's financial .operating tax rate to 4%, also approved an increase in the local market to absorb dollars, </ P> <P> dollars buried quantitative easing "evil" </ P> <P> 1914 年 6 months, the Sarajevo War lit up directly .4 years smoke. .The source of the money behind the war what is it? .</ P> <P> Thunder Guotai Junan Li, chief economist to the "Daily News" said the direct cause of war, the U.S. dollar currency devaluation, resulting in other currencies against the U.S. dollar. .But in the end, the most essential reason is the market expected the Fed will start the second round of quantitative easing, eventually lifting the dollar lower long-term expectations. .The fact is that many countries tend to rely on currency depreciation to boost the economy, but the results while filling a substantial influx of commodity hedge funds, gold and other assets, resulting in inflation expectations increase; on the other hand, the financial crisis, national policy is more .tend to short-term. .In this way not only failed to improve the balance sheet, but the stimulus by means of quantitative easing growing debt levels. .</ P> <P> "because November will be held in the Federal Reserve meeting on interest rates, so the strength of short-term non-US currencies will be high probability events, which is why governments did not intervene in currency markets to boost the currency after the reasons," Lee said Thunder ."But it is worth noting that, due to more competitive U.S. long-term, long term U.S. dollar is likely to be reversed." </ P> <P> data, October 1 to 8, the dollar index fell .2%, 9 single month plunged more than 5%, so the dollar index since the second half of this year the cumulative drop of 10%. .The reporters found that the first half of 2000 to the end of the year and a half year to 21, only hit in the first half of 2002 the largest decline of 9%, during an average of 0.6%. .</ P> <P> Dongguan Yu Jie, deputy director of Securities Research Institute, told reporters that the money is the root cause of war, the United States want to restart the quantitative easing, and ultimately the depreciation of the dollar and stimulate exports purposes. .It is worth mentioning that such a move is equivalent to the expense of future benefits in exchange for immediate, in order to shift the financial crisis losses. .But in that case, the U.S. dollar currency long-term dominance will certainly be shaken. .Even so, other countries are more likely to just say do not do, in the hedge funds have entered the commodity market conditions, currency intervention alone is simply very difficult to reverse the trend depreciation of the dollar. .</ P> <P> Geithner made "multilateral cooperation," the first step </ P> <P> yesterday (October 10) the end of the IMF and World Bank annual meeting, U.S. Treasury Secretary Gate .more satisfied implicitly expressed the views of the current international monetary situation, because he did not put the finger at China. .He believes that economic development in some countries should not harm other countries, built on the basis of economic interests. .Most developed countries, domestic consumption in emerging markets while driving should promote exports, so as to make them (manipulator) of the currency appreciation. .</ P> <P> In addition, he also pointed out that, IMF rebalance the world economy which plays an important role, should play the role of commander in chief to support a number of countries for the economy to balance the action. .Some media said, following the adoption of the House Ways and Means Committee Chairman Geithner Levin, Sander "multilateral cooperation programs," after the first step. .Not long ago, the U.S. House of Representatives by 348 votes to just 79 votes by a large proportion of the "exchange rate reforms to promote Fair Trade Act." .</ P> <P> However, most developed and the exchange rate issue that still need to be treated with caution. .Many heads of state and finance ministers are concerned that recent exchange rate in some countries (eg China) will provoke more stress imposed by a strong resistance. .Popular "currency war" the statement from Brazil Finance Minister 吉多曼特加 September 27 announced the Brazilian government will intervene in currency markets when the statement. .</ P> <P> International Monetary Fund (IMF) Managing Director Dominique Strauss - Kahn said: "IMF should be 'better' in capital flows, foreign exchange reserves and exchange rates work.

Dispute over the exchange rate indicates that the world economy will be big changes.

<P> 7th of this month, the IMF's Strauss-Kahn warned that if some countries tried to use the exchange rate tools to address its problems, this is risky because the currency could trigger war. .</ P> <P> Kahn's argument was very kind. .From the situation in recent months, the currency in some places, in fact, the war broke out. .By the U.S. dollar continued to depreciate against major currencies due to exchange rate of the dispute, but the problem of representation, and its essence is that the overall pattern of the world economy is undergoing fundamental change. .</ P> <P> According to statistics, this year, all major economies, currencies against the U.S. dollar continued to rise. .If the yen against the dollar in the past two months has been repeatedly hit a new high in 15 years, the Australian dollar against the U.S. dollar in the past month has been accumulated by 8.3%. .The euro against the dollar in the past week has increased by 2.3%. .</ P> <P> In addition, a considerable part of the country or region emerging economies currencies in the past few months the rapid rise against the dollar. .Especially those highly dependent on foreign demand, export-oriented economy, its currency's rapid appreciation against the U.S. dollar has been a serious threat to the local export enterprises, affecting the local economy. .</ P> <P> this end, the economy is smoking on the currency of this war has shown a high degree of apprehension. .Late last month, Brazilian Finance Minister said, we are in a currency war. .General devaluation of national currencies, which poses a threat to us. .Brazil will take decisive action to prevent excessive appreciation of their currencies. .</ P> <P> Prior to this, Japan is suddenly in the Sept. 15 implementation of the intervention in the foreign exchange market intervention operations. .Subsequently, other countries and economies have also pledged to intervene in the market to intervene. .For example, South Korea expressed its readiness to intervene when necessary, India and Thailand issued a similar warning to take appropriate action. .</ P> <P> dispute in this exchange rate, the target than the largest two countries. .Although China in this global financial crisis, very quickly adopted special measures to stimulate their economies, and for the world economy has created conditions for the recovery of precious, but the United States does not appreciate, is still forced to take on the attitude of China's exchange rate. .</ P> <P> the United States and some countries with developed economies, why do it? .If we look only to the two countries to look, just staring at the RMB exchange rate, may be too narrow field of vision is not conducive to see the heart of the problem. .If we developed economies, the current situation can have a little more understanding, I am afraid to think different. .</ P> <P> First, the 2008 outbreak of the international financial crisis in the U.S. fire. .Over the years the U.S. government and residents caused by excessive deficit spending and trade deficits, has long been the U.S. economy can not get into a quagmire. .Although the outbreak of the financial crisis was brewing at home the consequences of financial speculation, but it is a reflection of U.S. economic structural imbalances, long-term imbalance is a reflection of the world economy. .</ P> <P> Now, the United States to get rid of "twin deficits" of the entanglement, the most good way is to let the dollar fall. .This will allow other countries to bear the costs of economic adjustment, the United States, resulting in U.S. dollar assets in other countries has shrunk dramatically, exports have slowed, competitiveness weakened rapidly, while the United States to influence by playing in major U.S. markets, and reap speculative gains, while expanding the U.S. .exports in order to fix loopholes in the twin deficits. .</ P> <P> history, the U.S. has done so, and now the United States is doing. .Now, the United States not only put pressure on the yuan, against other major currencies have depreciated to the offensive. .Among them, especially export-known for emerging economies to take a depreciation of the strategy. .Why? .Because the administration to create jobs, exports doubled in the implementation plan, implementation of the "re-industrialization", not how the line with the depreciation of the dollar? .</ P> <P> look at the situation in other developed economies, particularly in developed economies in Western Europe and the Nordic conditions. .Recently, high-welfare states are experiencing these problems there are two, one is a sovereign debt problem, the other is the extension of employment. .These two issues is the recent spread north-western Europe countries, as well as mass protests continued, the strike continued. .Why do some places will burst out of these two problems? .</ P> <P> the one hand, there are similarities between these countries and the United States, the use of financial leverage over the government and people over-spending, resulting in debt; the other hand, in the economic structure and industrial structure problems exist on the hollow ., also makes these high-welfare state is very fragile economic base; coupled with social welfare standards, requiring huge financial support, if the economy is a problem, it is difficult to maintain this standard. .</ P> <P> so, whether it is in the U.S. and some developed countries in northwest Europe, are now facing a triple challenge: how to compress expenditure, the second is how to create jobs and the third is how to increase exports. .In the current round of severe financial crisis has not subsided when taken inappropriately tight fiscal policy, increasing employment, on the economic recovery is very bad. .In this case, can choose only the increase in exports. .</ P> <P> Now, when developed economies began to turn around tip, through currency depreciation to improve the export competitiveness of their products, began to reshape the country's manufacturing industry, increase exports and earn foreign exchange earnings, when the world .trade patterns are being re-shuffling of the time, does it mean? .Especially those in East Asia has long been dependent on exports to maintain economic growth, economies, does that mean? .</ P> <P> conclusion is obvious that the original external demand environment has changed, the external power has decreased, even disappeared. .The resulting is, the entire world production structure, employment structure, product structure, trade structure, economic structure of the big changes. .It is now we are considering a variety of macro and micro issues, can not avoid the new situation. .</ P>.

"Currency war": there are no winners in a game.

<P> While countries agreed to deepen the International Monetary Fund (IMF) as the "exchange rate the police" role, but could not find common ground, has been unable to reach consensus on specific agreements. .Governments had to "peace" to deliver the aspirations held in Seoul next month, the Group of 20 (G20) summit. .</ P> <P> analysts pointed out that once the "currency war" broke out, and ultimately will lead to global trade war, and even endanger the global financial system. .</ P> <P> 1 back: depreciation of the dollar </ P> <P> the lead in the second annual meeting of IMF and World Bank on exchange rate issues, the world's major economies, began to draw the front. .US-led Western developed economies, exchange rate misalignment will blame others, and emerging economies is the United States accused the extremely loose monetary policy led to the influx of hot money and make the global exchange rate system and imbalance. .</ P> <P> as the IMF's Strauss-Kahn said: "RMB revaluation should not be covered by his government as a fig leaf for their questions. Scapegoating always easy." </ P> <P> this ."currency war" can not be ignored behind the depreciation of the dollar is the dominant factor. .As the primary international reserve currency, the United States can be diverse and subtle ways, for example, affect the market transaction through the U.S. Treasury interest rates and money supply, or by lowering benchmark interest rates affect the dollar exchange rate. .</ P> <P> recent months, the Fed will once again expand the money supply, thus further reducing the expected short-term U.S. bond yields have been putting pressure on the dollar and boosted the euro, yen and other emerging markets .currency. .This forced some governments to take response measures. .</ P> <P> Brazilian Finance Minister Mantega October 9, said, "and the rapid expansion of the zero interest rate monetary policy to stimulate domestic demand though, but also led to currency devaluation. So developing countries will continue to accumulate foreign exchange reserves .thus avoiding the "volatility and appreciation". </ P> <P> the People's Bank of China Deputy Governor Yi Gang during the annual meeting of the "Business News", told reporters that the current U.S. interest rates are at historically low levels, emerging markets .national monetary policy, "recipient", rather than the makers, the carry trade to a large extent explains the result of capital inflows in emerging market countries facing appreciation pressure. </ P> <P> Brazil's former Minister of Finance .Pedro Malan (PedroMalan) In an interview with "Business News" interview, also said the dollar carry trade is the result of low interest rates in emerging markets mainly due to currency appreciation pressure. </ P> <P> Russian Deputy Finance Minister .Pankin (DmitryPankin) at the annual conference that China, Brazil, Russia and India will be the currency of any sharp evaluation of the control to be strongly resisted. Pankin said the four countries have agreed position that the exchange rate itself is not a problem, but only .willingness to invest such savings will and the result of deeper problems. </ P> <P> 2 results: there are no winners </ P> <P> more and more countries are trying to devalue the currency to increase export competitiveness, stimulate economic growth .. Despite the current national action to intervene in currency markets is still relatively modest, but there is still imminent danger. EU Economic and Monetary Affairs Commissioner Rehn said: "The war is not a currency, but competitive or competitive devaluation does not appreciate the perspective .Obviously, the situation moving in an unfavorable direction. ."</ P> <P> analysts pointed out that if the" currency war "were to happen, the Federal Reserve estimated in 2011 will clearly be the extent to which, after further quantitative easing policy. If there are signs that the Fed's policy of quantitative easing .measures more restrained, may still stabilize the foreign exchange market. </ P> <P> a certain sense, the current "currency war" is more like money in the name of the modern trade war. Since the crisis, the export trade .restore economic growth to become the world's lifeblood, and countries can not directly use tariffs to protect their commodity, currency devaluation as an important shield to increase competitiveness. </ P> <P> However, despite the devaluation to promote exports, but also damage the trading partners .interests, which may take the depreciation of the same strategy. and currency war "losers" will launch a trade war pre-emptive attempt by way of re-establishing trade barriers for trade advantage. </ P> <P> Once this multi-country .game "currency war" broke out, countries in the tooth for a tooth, tit for tat actions into a vicious circle. The global economy will slide into a fear of trade protectionism, "melee", the end result will be a collective defeat. </ P> .<P> has successfully predicted the credit crisis, economics professor at New York University Lubin Ni (NourielRoubini) recently said: "We are in a devaluation of the world all want, but every currency devaluation is not balanced .. .Currency intervention will eventually lead to trade war war. ."</ P> <P> this" war "is far more than the influence of the trade level. Currency brokers may also be in trouble, as did 2008 and suffered heavy losses. Their loss will further spread to the global financial system .other areas, the consequences would be unthinkable. </ P> <P> as Korean Ministry of Finance Planning Executive Yoon Jeung-hyun pointed out, if all countries cooperate with each other, can achieve better results, if the distrust, and pursue their own interests, will be faced with ."worst case". </ P> <P> 3 address: Urgent global collaboration </ P> <P> the last century, the Great Depression 30 years has proven this "worst case." In response to the Great Depression and then .protect American jobs, the U.S. passed the "Smoot - Hawley Tariff Act" (Smoot-HawleyTariffAct), a substantial increase in tariffs on most imported products, triggering a trade war, global recession deepened. </ P> .<P> Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke has repeatedly stressed that, in 1929, after the stock market crash, the world if not to the extreme protectionist trade policies, maybe we will not fall into the last century, the Great Depression of 30's appalling. </ .P> <P> World Bank President Robert Zoellick called for international cooperation to solve the problem, avoid repeating the 30's during the Great Depression countries to take selfish strategy error: "History has proved that selfish, beggar thy neighbor policy is no way out. .If we fall into strife or into any form of protectionism, then we may repeat the Great Depression of the thirties of last century when the mistakes. ."He said, governments current dispute on the exchange rate will hit investor confidence is not conducive to private sector participation into the world economic recovery. </ P> <P> French Finance Minister Christine Lagarde (ChristineLagarde) said during the meeting .: "We want (money) peace rather than 'war'. ."The French central bank governor, Noah (ChristianNoyer) also said policy makers around the world need to" develop the market confidence, rather than launching the currency war. ."He pointed out that excessive exchange rate volatility would damage economic growth. </ P> <P> At the same time, Kahn called on countries not only in words, mild language, but also to take concrete steps:" Language is not valid .. .Language can not change things, we must adopt specific policies. ."</ P> <P> 4 follow-up: the exchange rate or the leading G20 summit </ P> <P> Rehn also called on countries around the world need to strengthen coordination of monetary policy in order to avoid exchange rate fluctuations and achieve more balanced economic growth. He .that such collaboration can be the framework of IMF or the G20. </ P> <P> British Chancellor of the Exchequer George Osborne (GeorgeOsborne) on Friday said: "We do need to be more market-oriented, reflecting the basic .surface exchange rate mechanism, G20 and the IMF should play a role in helping achieve this goal. ."</ P> <P> Because it is difficult to find common ground, governments agreed at the annual meeting by the IMF to act as" exchange rate the police "role, the development of relevant reports to show how the policies of one country to other countries. These studies will mainly .concentrated in the United States, China, Britain, the euro zone. </ P> <P> Kahn said: "The spillover effects of the discussion of the report have been carried out for several months, and now has become our 'toolbox' part. ."</ P> <P> In addition, IMF's Strauss-Kahn on Friday also made a" systemic stability "of the initiative. In accordance with the initiative, IMF coordination in many areas to alleviate the" money .war "tensions. But in the end of the IMF meeting, he proposed a more narrow approach that will focus on strengthening the IMF to members on the review of exchange rate policies. </ P> <P> many officials support .IMF exchange rate to play a greater role, but also that the IMF a more limited capacity to act, because the organization can not force members to accept his views. Some officials suggested the IMF should continue to play in the G20 meeting of advisory role. </ .P> <P> exchange rate is likely to be held in Seoul next month's Group of 20 (G20) summit, the dominant issue. if the differences between countries summit in Seoul are still unable to get mediation, will mark the G20 is .response to the financial crisis and the formation of the united front broken. </ P>.
