The article you quote criticised well known economists. Also the argument you are making now is different. The argument you had was that China would not stop buying US Treasuries. The argument now is that you think America wants China to stop buying US Treasuries to stop manipulating their currency. You have just contradicted yourself. I am tired of this arguing. I have made my point. Please go away.
Dude... this all goes back to the question I posed you "Let me ask you this: why do you think there's a huge foreign demand for US/UK/EU bonds at these absurd levels?" Note... nothing about the future. It's about things that happened up to the present. You are the only arguing about these things. I asked you a simple macro question on why certain things happened. You failed over and over again and now trying to divert. " The argument you had was that China would not stop buying US Treasuries." <- when did I ever say that. Every article I posted I simply said that it describes the reason why China has been buying treasuries - which, again, is the question I posed. Why? Afraid this won't look good when you pump your "product" next time? If you want to sell snake oil, at least make it about something that doesn't make you sound like a complete embarrassment whenever you try to talk about.
Yep. Lost my old email address; had to create a new account. Now maybe you can use your admin power to either restore my old acct or port my old posts over?
First you did not state China you just said foreign countries. Second there are other reasons. Oil and middle east unrest being two of them. It was more of an open question not a a closed single answer. Third I did answer your question. Fourth your answer was a disagreement with other economists. Which means even if I am wrong well known economists are also wrong. I know you are sjfan. You were banned and you have a new name.
It's cool - I don't really care - it was tied to an old old email address that I haven't used in years and I had long lost access to;
If I remember correctly. The reason you left was because I asked you what the neoclassical synthesis was and you could not answer. That is a closed question you did not know. That revealed you to be a charlatan. The question you asked me was open and could have many answers. I gave you several. Here is a link where you made an fool of yourself and broke ET etiquette. http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=220007&perpage=6&pagenumber=11
I didn't leave. And I pointed you that you are a terrible liar. Feel free to close this thread. Since it's clearly derailed by us - I'm responsible to. Might as well use your admin power for something useful.
