Th Chinese Stk market just d th Nikki vn

trding bv 50-67 tim rning n vrg, as th US

Chin Stk market is in a rriu place nd th lt
re-adjustment w 25% loss in under a mnth.
Still Chin' middl l i mrging nd wages are riing
[but 15% NYT reports in m areas], whih might
lw down trade dfiit and inr US rdut
muh f wht i sold hr i made in Chin. It will l

as well. Chin will hv t dl with their infltin and
th have nthr rblm, not nugh people to work
in all th r.
Wht if the US Middle Class t ll th purchases f ll
th Chin products? Nt likl u - mb not,

but there are changes in the US l, th US is ing

If th Unitd Stt Middl Cl fl poor nd hit a

It i dfinitl hwing in rtil l. There are some

Indeed, economists nt l tht the War in Iraq i
