China threatens US with disposal of American securities

China’s ongoing accusations of spreading the coronavirus and Washington’s threat to cancel part of its US debt could force Beijing to retaliate with US securities. About this writes the Chinese publication South China Morning Post.

According to the newspaper, China, tired of US accusations, may sell part of the US public debt, thereby collapsing the dollar. According to reporters, Beijing is considering the option of using a "trump card in the sleeve", which at the most inopportune moment may shake the American securities market. The fact is that Washington is currently busy issuing new bonds to finance a number of programs adopted to combat coronavirus infection and its consequences, and their volume reaches 4 trillion. dollars.

There is a strong desire for countries such as China and Russia to move away from settlements in US dollars. At least in order to "disarm" the US government

said Xu Sitao, chief economist at Deloitte China.

Note that the US public debt to China is 1,1 trillion. dollars, part of which Washington is threatening to write off as a response to China’s spread of the coronavirus. But the United States itself will not do this, the newspaper writes. But China can sharply reduce the volume of investments in US securities or even sell part of the US public debt, which will lead to a sharp jump in interest rates on securities of the US Treasury.

However, according to some experts, the dumping by China of even the entire US public debt will not lead to any collapse of the dollar, since the US Federal Reserve will buy it "to the last cent." What is 1,1 trillion. US government debt, owned by China, against the background of the fact that the Fed over the past month and a half bought up government bonds by 2,5 trillion. dollars and continues to engage in such a ransom. On the other hand, the dumping of the US government debt by China may lead to a chain reaction, which cannot but affect the American economy.

and where are the Chinese then will keep the money ???? American bonds are the most reliable and safe way to earn income - there is no alternative to them now. Fortunately or unfortunately - but it is.

[Arthur 85]

If the state needs to keep money somewhere, then it has the wrong Gosplan ... However, the capstran simply does not have it. And in a healthy person’s economy, how much is produced, how much is consumed, plus or minus bast shoes. And if we consciously produce surpluses, then we roughly imagine what we should receive in return. And this (drum roll) is not American debt with a yield of 1-3%.

[Tycoon]

This is what you argue with socialist norms - state plans and capes of the country ........ In the economy of a healthy person, what he produced should be less than the cost of what he sold (consumed) and, as a result, profit (income) or what do you call surplus. In any country there is planning, it is called differently but it is. Any country should have cash reserves, which are formed from you said surplus. But in what form to store these surpluses is a question and at the moment there is nothing regarding the reliability of American bonds, whether you like it or not.

[Arthur 85]

Um. In general, you are right somewhere, but not quite. If you dig very deeply, then these reserves - they are in extreme cases. Historically, they were kept in the form of grain and precious metals. Of course, it is more convenient to keep them in the dollar - it is much more liquid. At any moment - if you are not an enemy of the United States - you can buy at least bread for it, even Aegis destroyer ... But here's the thing: if it’s only trouble in your country, you can buy grain for a dollar. And if really big trouble comes? I do not want to be impolite, but can you imagine how far the Chinese will send foreign shareholders and intellectual property owners? And they, in turn, where will the owners of the treasuries be sent who will try to exchange them for at least something? Though on a decommissioned barge ...
The economy of a healthy person for a year in Siberia established the production of T-34, and the economy of a smoker cannot establish the production of medical masks in two months.
Therefore, according to the mind, it is necessary to work to meet current needs and to develop NZ. What, of course, can not be done by creative youth: how will we be without an iPhone and eat three years ago (not expired, in any case) stew? ..
In short, I do not see a good way out. The modern world economy does not have a margin of safety. If the cow virus doesn’t leave us, Nature has many more surprises.

[Tycoon]

By the way, I agree with the example of the economy of a smoker - but an example of the economy of a healthy person does not fit, by the way, perhaps the modern economy does not have a margin of safety, but no one has proposed or proved anything else ....

[Arthur 85]

It was a little off topic, but it was thought: if Stalin handed Churchill and Truman a bag of diamonds, maybe the Cold War would not have happened?
By the way, I forgot the most important thing: the capitalist system simply has no purpose. For it is satisfying to eat, and even capture the whole world - the goal is not.

[Tycoon]

and what is the purpose of the goal ???? and the question, why do C. and T. need a diamonds in a suitcase ????

[Arthur 85]

The socialist way of life has a goal: to increase education all people on the planet, provide them with a reliable future, eradicate wars, prejudices, obscurantism and superstition, reach other planets, and save your own from greedy "startups", like that.
Why do they need a suitcase? Why did they fight against the USSR? How not to keep your personal p0pu warm? Is this the goal of capitalism, or something I don’t understand? .. So I have to lie to them (the capitalists) because there is not a single argument than capitalism is better, except "You have already got a gulag."

[Tycoon]

The socialist way of life is not viable, and you can no longer continue

[Arthur 85]

Well then, humanity is over. For either it will be communist, or it will not be - it will destroy itself in the pursuit of profit. In my opinion, this is an axiom, i.e., a self-evident statement.

Quote: Tycoon

perhaps the modern economy does not have a margin of safety, but nobody else has proposed or proved effectiveness yet.

World history of all centuries until the 20th worked just like this different. It was focused on the production of what someone needs, and for which that person can pay with money received from the personal production of what someone needs. With such an economy, there are no exchanges or loans, and it is extremely stable. It does not give quick and gratuitous technological breakthroughs, but it also does not impose any debts on a person's "tomorrow". It goes like a train. The world would have made an iPhone anyway, just a few decades later. The only serious threat to her is crop failure. But we gradually learned to cope with this, and I do not mean GMOs, but normal farming methods, equipment in the fields, more accurate knowledge of the climate, etc. Until now, any family that does not have loans lives exactly as they have lived for centuries. But I wanted more, and immediately. And at the same time, something (apartment, house) suddenly became unattainably expensive, and the person himself went into debt. Everything would be fine, but super profits from the modern economy, to which there is "no alternative", are accumulating in the hands of a handful of billionaires.

[Tycoon]

A bunch of billionaires in the 16th century was in the 18th, as well as exchanges and loans .......

That you argue socialist norms-gosplans and cap of the country

Sadness, of course, with your knowledge would be back to school. Planned economy or market economy => just a tool, sometimes both can be used, if not always. All corporations operate as planned, not market-based.
And here such a thing "Income" and "Profit" are two different concepts; and American debt now, a rather toxic asset, which is quietly being abandoned, and that's all; the reason for this is their stupidity and impudence

And in general, stop these nonsense about the economy, see enough "mega-economists" on YouTube and then shine with knowledge; I emphasize in red if there are no signs of a genius-mathematician, this person cannot be an economist. For you can be a bad economist but a good mathematician, but you cannot be a good economist and a bad mathematician.

[Motorist]

the result is profit

Well, the "profit" of 500-1000% on buying and selling (not production!) Is already too much ... Some of the "ancients" have set the same limit of 300% (any crime).

[Tycoon]

tell me where now in the world you can get a profit of 500%, well, at least 299% .... Do not offer drugs and weapons ....

[Motorist]

Pavel, spare parts. For example (very rude, offhand): the manufacturer’s UV flame detector costs 500 (not the prime cost!), And the boiler manufacturer already exceeds 2000.

Gold is a cool product, only the price is market. Only today an ounce of 1000 dollars, tomorrow 1500 dollars. and after tomorrow, 800 dollars. And who will be responsible for the loss of money ????

[malyvalv]

Gold in itself is money. Gold is not used in calculations only because of inconvenience. If any country issues a crypto secured by gold, then everyone will forget about the dollar. Rather, then not the cost of gold will be expressed in dollars but the value of the dollar in ounces.

[Tycoon]

it's from the realm of science fiction ......

[Voltsky]

energy currency is a promising monetary unit, not gold; for it’s not convenient to use even as a basis

[Tycoon]

What is it like ??? please explain the concept of energy currency ????

[Voltsky]

the price of money is tied to energy, that is, how much energy can you buy for one unit of money, including gas, oil and electricity; instead of the "gold standard"
After all, the production of any product can be estimated in the energy spent on it, but how this currency will look, as if you can and crypto

US bonds are the most reliable and safest way to earn income

Only this reliable method turned out to be highly dependent on the economic and market considerations of the Fed, and now also on the political blackmail of the administration and the US president personally.
One such statement is already depreciating US government securities.
Yes - China may sell these securities at a loss, the US will have some temporary difficulties with loans (the loan rate will jump).
The only question is whether China will want to sell securities for US dollars - which are depreciating due to "quantitative easing".

Paul! Why "hold" bonds? Income not invested in business is not useful. Currency, albeit devalued, received for bonds can be used. China has many options with its geopolitical influence, they will bring him income not once, but here and now, and not sometime in the future - the situation with the virus shows this

[Tycoon]

and you, too, are investing your personal savings into a penny ??? Or do you save something on deposit or in currency, in case you need money urgently ???? By the way, the money invested in a business tends to burn through - a business is a business, but a stable income on bonds and you can sell them at the purchase price ....

[mikh-korsakov]

Paul. The way China coped with the epidemic proves that it is the country itself that can get out of difficulties. Therefore, China does not need to worry about "rainy days". Yes. a certain amount of funds is needed, but keeping them abroad is not at all necessary, there are different tools. The whole question is in the amount invested in deposits. No one argues that an airbag is needed, but that does not mean. that you need to go to sleep on it. China now has unprecedented influence in Africa. African authorities are particularly eager to cooperate with China. because China does not condition its aid on something stupid like respecting human rights. Africa is a treasure trove of rare minerals needed in high-tech - to buy up their deposits and adjust production technology - now become a ruler. But China does not want this, it contradicts its philosophy. This is what saves the fattening West.

I don’t really follow the relations between China and the United States, but I have the impression that Donald Fredovich wants to become Nixon. On the contrary. As you know, Nixon forged relations between the United States and Chairman Mao, promising the PRC technologies and markets for Chinese goods, thanks to which China has developed economically. Today the "global" world is breaking up into "regional" worlds, not forever, of course, but according to the law of a pendulum - it is time to throw stones, time to collect stones. That is, Trump wants to "take away" some of the technologies from China again, which of course looks at least naive.

China has long been working for the whole world. (taking into account the population). As for the United States, we must give them their due, it was they who taught the Chinese to work efficiently.

China threatens US with disposal of American securities

[rotmistr60]

China "quickly" got tired of massive pressure from the United States and accusations against itself, therefore, for now, through the media, it launched information about a possible disposal of American securities. It’s very interesting what other trump cards he has up his sleeve in a long-term trade war with the Americans. Some political analysts are already predicting a "cold war" between the United States and China, similar to the global confrontation between the United States and the USSR.

[Kasym]

70% of the US demand for rare earths is met by Chinese manufacturers. Beijing has already threatened the United States, which could limit the export of these metals.
I think that these rattling sanctions from two sides will not end in anything. USA and PRC like Siamese twins. The PRC needs the US market, and the United States needs the flow of consumer goods from this country. Trump can only increase customs excise taxes on Chinese goods, but this will also lead to a rise in the cost of goods for the population. Return of production to the USA - prices will also soar for the products of these plants.
But the United States needs to do something with its huge public debt, so Trump is raising this issue of sanctions with the EU and with Southeast Asia. Still, the negative balance in trade with these parts of the world threatens the main product of the United States - the dollar. Therefore, the Trump pandemic problem needs to be used to the full extent - it will write off part of the state debt under this pretext.

[Tycoon]

nobody will write off anything if at least one dollar is written off - this whole system will fly into the abyss.

The main thing of Russia is to climb a tree in time and watch the battle of two tigers The Turkish banking regulator has banned local banks from conducting transactions in Turkish lira with three major international banks - Citigroup Inc., BNP Paribas SA and UBS Group AG - amid the depreciation of the Turkish lira to a record low against the dollar.

The decision of the Agency for Regulation and Supervision of Banking of Turkey (BDDK) explained that the financial institutions did not fulfill their obligations on transactions in lira in a timely manner. The press release of the regulator notes that restrictions are introduced to ensure the stable functioning of the banking sector and its protection from dangerous practices.

The lira against the US dollar on Thursday fell to a record low of 7,2692 lira for $ 1. Lira has been under serious pressure for several weeks amid growing investor doubts about the ability of the Turkish authorities to support the economy and national currency in a crisis caused by the coronavirus pandemic, the Financial Times writes.

According to one FT source, the BDDK solution came as a complete surprise to Citigroup, BNP Paribas, and UBS.

On Friday, the lira adds 0,3%, the rate is 7,1408 lira / $ 1.

The BDDK's actions "could cause enormous damage to Turkey," said Tim Ash, economist at BlueBay Asset Management.

“I think the regulator should think very hard about what he wanted to achieve with this,” says Ash.

According to him, blocking foreign banks from access to the country's foreign exchange market will significantly complicate transactions in lira.

Earlier in the Turkish media there were reports that the lira depreciation was due to a coordinated attack by foreign banks, organized from London. Anadolu agency said that the Turkish authorities intend to initiate legal procedures in relation to financial institutions, according to which they may face fines or a ban on transactions. Lucky Turks, cho =).

Banknotes are not Treasury notes. And although they have some similarities, they are issued on an individual basis and are individually labeled.
That is, the United States can at any time refuse any particular holder of this type of securities in their compliance with the goznak.
De facto, the USA does this without saying anything, by default.
China is forced to hold these bonds as a condition of admission to the US market and a guarantee of maintaining the interests of the United States, without which the United States will take the same guarantees by military means, simply capturing China by force.
China is not strong enough to dictate US conditions, and he did not want to work with Russia to surpass these weaknesses.
Although it is already obvious that if the United States makes a decision, China will starve and die, for example, the crown of the virus.
