The problem is that the asset bubbles, at least in Singapore, are partly due to foreign investors.The Asia governments are combating the asset bubbles and the stock market bubbles. I think the bubbles in stock markets in Asia, notably in Hong Kong, are due to large foreign institutional investors.It makes sense for them to invest in Asia economies since the Greenback is declining steadily.

I am not so sure that investors in Asia are so foolish to allow asset bubbles. With the amount of people and businesses around, the liquidity and currencies must be chasing bargains like mad.We need a cross-rate table to assess things properly. Datastream, a Reuters service, last week clearly indicated that this yuan/renminbi hysteria is unfounded.Carry trades in any forms a small portion of GDP’s, so let’s just relax.

China holds huge US Debt and it is unrealistic and foolish,to ask her to allow the Yuan/RNB to rise,without the USA reciprocating in kind,namely,reducing Budget Deficit and stopping Bernanke from using his/the, Helicopter.
