^ Do you think he's right?

China has some new promos running on CNN and co that suggests to me that they want more foreign investments in the country, maybe to buy up their over-built real estate assets. . . I dunno really undecided

If that is the case, maybe he has a point? maybe they(china) are already jittery themselves.

But with 1Billion potential consumers( dunno how many can really afford to consume anything for now though) they should be able to get enough Chinese consumers to buy up those assets, or maybe that's just one of the "china myth" he kept referring to.

Interesting stuff. . .

He raises some pretty good points. And he has data to support his hypothesis.

Will be interesting to see how it turns out.
