President Obama – Yuan Currency Manipulation, China RMB Rate

U.S. Senate Banking Committee Chairman Chris Dodd responds to reporters concerning his expectation of what President elect Obama will do concerning the China Yuan currency manipulation.

Buy China yuan while the American dollar is strong and wait for U.S. pressure legislatively to be applied during the Obama administration. Huge potential profits as the yuan gets released from captivity to rise to all-time highs.

For those without much intestinal fortitude to ride the waves of change during this unprecedented global financial crisis, park your life savings in gold and watch the currencies of the world unravel after which you can reposition and relocate your fortunes in the appropriate currency of choice once stability returns to global financial markets. Gold has been a timeless and solid bet for savvy investors unwilling to risk their hard earned money. http://www.bullionvault.com/#paulfdavis

In June of 2007, despite pressure from the US Congress, the Bush administration refused acknowledge and cite China as a country that manipulates its currency to gain unfair trade advantages. Yet that finding was quickly challenged by a group of senators who said they would introduce legislation to make it easier for the United States to pursue economic sanctions against China for allowing its currency to rise in value more quickly against the dollar.

American manufacturers contend that China is undervaluing its currency by as much as 40 percent. Contributing to a recession and an unprecedented jobless rate in America, China yuan currency manipulation has produced a massive US-China trade gap exceeding an all-time high of $232.6 billion, one-third of America’s record deficit of $758.5 billion last year.

Expect a majority Democratic Congress and President elect Obama to take aggressive action against China for manipulating their currency and artificially keeping the yuan and RMB rate. The time for change has come and it will begin in the global economy as President Obama applies pressure with his economic team on countries like China who have manipulated their currency, held the yuan down, to profit handsomely at the expense of the U.S. economy.

The Obama administration will not mirror the passivity an complacency of the Bush administration, but rather take aggressive action to remedy the global market injustices and create a level playing field for all in the international markets. That being said, when the strategic economic dialogue is unveiled, as President Obama takes office on January 20. 2009, expect immediate pressure on China and Japan to stop the manipulation of their currencies.

China’s currency hit a new high against the American dollar on in June of 2007 when the United States’ congress began to increasingly demand China increase the value of the yuan more quickly. Once the People’s Bank of China complied and set the midpoint at 7.6282, the minute trading started the 7.63 barrier was instantly broken for the first time since China ended the peg to the US dollar in July 2005.

Although the China yuan is currently allowed to move 0.5 percent up or down the midpoint in a day, expect more pressure to be applied from the Obama administration and Washington upon China in the coming months. This will translate into record highs for those investing in China yuan, as its artificially low valuations break free and begin to rise to all-time highs.

Expect U.S. lawmakers, Chris Dodd, and the Obama administration to put unprecedented pressure on China to stop manipulating their currency and let the yuan rise to all-time highs. Once the controls on the yuan are lifted, the yuan a.k.a. RMB will hit record highs.

That being said, a very safe and wise long-term investment is the China yuan given the fact China holds over $1 trillion of U.S. debt and manufactures countless goods and products bought throughout America by salivating consumers lusting for Chinese items.

For more than half a century, US labor-intensive industry has mostly shifted overseas. Take the shoe industry for example. In 1976, in the US market 53 pairs of shoes per 100 pairs were domestically made. That figure dropped to 22 pairs in 1986; 11 pairs in 1996; and only only one and half pairs per 100 were domestically made in 2006.
Now, 98.5 percent of the shoes worn by Americans are imported. In 2005, the US imported 1.8 billion pairs of various kinds of shoes from China. The average American wore six pairs of shoes made in China.

American lawmakers are adamantly calling for punitive action against China if it fails to take faster action to let the yuan rise. Once President elect Obama enters the White House, expect immediate action against China to ensure compliance and a release of the yuan from captivity and Chinese governmental intervention.

China to Diversify Foreign Currency Reserves, Dump Dollars, and Invest its $1 Trillion Elsewhere

China will soon begin to diversify its foreign currency reserves and dump dollars by the billions. As China invests its $1 trillion from trade surpluses elsewhere, other central and foreign banks will dump dollars. We holding dollars will lose much. 

China’s spectacular trade surplus and mighty strength as the lender of last resort to many nations including America, which owes $10 trillion in debt, are raising eyebrows as many investors are dumping dollars and buying China’s Yuan, a highly undervalued currency.

http://ads.easy-forex.com/Gateway.aspx?gid=104994

http://www.bullionvault.com/#paulfdavis

[b]China’s plan to diversify foreign currency reserves is an unprecedented move away from the U.S. dollar.[/b]

The Chinese government announced the formation of a new agency to oversee investment of China’s $1 trillion in foreign currency reserves, representing a potent new force in international finance.

Finance Minister Jin Renqing offered no specifics about how much of the currency reserves would be made available to the investment agency. But analysts say the agency is expected to control one of the world’s biggest investment funds, and one that could singlehandedly alter the value of national currencies on a global scale. As China seeks more attractive investment earnings with its vast financial holdings and moves away from the devaluing dollar, expect the U.S. economy to take a nosedive. When it does (and already beforehand for savvy investors with sufficient foresight), watch for a run on the U.S. banks and widespread dumping of the dollar in favor of the Euro, Yuan, gold, and other safe havens.

http://www.bullionvault.com/#paulfdavis

http://ads.easy-forex.com/Gateway.aspx?gid=104994

The Chinese government says one model for the agency was Temasek Holdings, the Singapore government’s successful investment agency, which manages an $84 billion global portfolio of investments.

China already has the world’s largest foreign exchange holdings, which is growing rapidly because of the country’s huge trade surpluses. According to the International Herald Tribune most of the reserves China now accumulates are conservatively invested in U.S. Treasury bonds and other government securities, which earn little return for China yet help to keep interest rates in the United States and other countries low.

The investment agency allows China to quickly diversify its foreign exchange holdings away from the dollar. Given the fact China and many Asian tigers loaning billions of dollars to the U.S. are disenchanted with America’s imperialistic foreign policy in Iraq, when disgust reaches its peak the dumping of dollars and non-renewing of loans to the U.S. could bankrupt the American economy.

China is ready to aggressively invest its huge trade surpluses as it seeks higher returns away from the dismal dollar. The impact of China’s emergence as a major global investor will be huge and a devastating blow to the U.S. economy as they progressively shift away from dollars in favor of more appreciating assets and higher yielding investments.

Rumor has it that China will soon begin dumping dollars by the billions. Before that happens, the American people would be wise to put their investments and protect their life savings in gold and other currencies such as the Euro and Chinese Yuan (which is greatly undervalued).

The biggest priority in these turbulent and troubling economic times is security, which the dollar no longer provides.

Mortgage Fraud in Florida – Attorney General suit Largest Mortgage Fraud Case in the United States

[b]For a real estate property appraiser who does not inflate housing prices, turn to Florida’s Mid-State Appraisals for trustworthy, accurate, and timely appraisals with a fast turnaround time.[/b]

http://midstateappraisals.org/

midstateappraisals@earthlink.net

The Florida Attorney General sued 10 companies and 15 individuals for their alleged roles in a major mortgage fraud scheme in September, 2008 precipitating and preceding widespread bankruptcies on Wall Street.

Given the number of defendants, the case may be the largest mortgage fraud case ever filed in the United States. According to the lawsuit filed here in Orlando, the ring obtained more than $37-million in mortgages for at least 60 home purchases and siphoned off more than $6-million of the proceeds for their own use. Approximately 50 of the houses later went into foreclosure.

The particular situation victimized the economy according to Florida’s Attorney General Bill McCollum. The group of white-collar professionals systematically defrauded banks and mortgage lenders, stealing millions for their own personal use and leaving a gaping hole in the system.

According to the St. Petersburg Times, starting in July 2005 and continuing through at least January 2007, three of the ring’s leaders allegedly defrauded lenders by recruiting “straw buyers” with good credit and using them to create false applications to buy homes throughout Central Florida.

Even more astonishing and frightening is the lawsuit, filed by the Attorney General’s Mortgage Fraud Task Force, claims the ring conspired with Realtors to artificially inflate purchase prices, thus enabling them to obtain larger mortgage loans.

Considering this type of fraudulent activity is happening nationwide with realtors, mortgage brokers, and straw buyers collectively conspiring to deceive the banking industry; the American economy could be bankrupted rather quickly without aggressive regulation and enforcement.

Artificially boosting the prices of homes and providing mortgages far more than the actual sales price with the buyer or a third party pocketing the difference is a federal offence. Unfortunately for the American economy, it seems this type of activity has been going on for quite some time.

The Attorney General’s office said there may be a separate investigation by the state Department of Business and Professional Regulation, which oversees the real estate industry. Thankfully, Attorney General Bill McCollum is aggressively prosecuting the fraud ring. This is precisely the type of aggressive legal intervention Florida and the American economy so desperately need.

Otherwise we would all be better served investing our dollars in a stronger, less volatile currency, with a more stable and regulated banking system such as the Euro or Chinese Yuan. For those with less intestinal fortitude, gold has proven a sure safe haven for centuries during economic decline and times of turbulence.

FBI Mortgage Fraud Task Force – Implications for Real Estate Property Appraisers in Florida

The FBI provided insight into the breadth and depth of mortgage fraud crimes perpetrated against the United States and its citizens, Florida being first and foremost on the list. Current mortgage fraud projections, issues, and hot spots in the troubled U.S. economy have enormous implications to the banking industry and real estate property appraisers in particular.

A builder for over 20 years and also a real estate broker, Paul Davis brings a wealth of knowledge to the table as an appraiser.

http://www.midstateappraisals.org

midstateappraisals@earthlink.net

A combined effort between banks and real estate property appraisers is needed to adequately identify, prevent, report, and thwart mortgage fraud activity. The FBI’s Financial Crimes Criminal Investigative Division (CID) and Financial Crimes Intelligence Unit are aggressively and cooperatively reporting the latest developments and pertinent data to empower the nationwide mortgage fraud task force.

As mortgage fraud crimes escalate, the burden on federal law enforcement increases. With the anticipated upsurge in mortgage fraud cases, the FBI employed additional strategies to proactively address the crime problem. The FBI works with the Department of Justice (DOJ)-Mortgage Fraud Working Group on a number of mortgage fraud related issues, including the creation and finalization of standard loss valuation criteria associated with mortgage fraud violations, and assisting the banking industry with the construction of a centralized repository of mortgage-related documentation.

The valuation criteria and mortgage related documentation is where real estate property appraisers and their appraisals provided lenders are going to increasingly be monitored and regulated in the near future.

Currently the FBI has mortgage fraud working groups or task forces in 32 field divisions across the country. The FBI divisions stationed in Florida are based out of Miami and Tampa. Moreoever the FBI continues to encourage the use of undercover operations as an effective technique to address mortgage fraud.

The recent stock market crashes across global markets have strongly affirmed, mortgage fraud if not dealt with has the potential to cripple the American economy and all foreign economies closely connected to it. Suspicious Activity Reports (SARs) from financial institutions indicate an increase in mortgage fraud. SARs increased 31-percent to 46,717 during Fiscal Year (FY) 2007. The total dollar loss attributed to mortgage fraud is unknown. However, 7 percent of SARs filed during FY 2007 indicated a specific dollar loss, which totaled more than $813 million.

Subprime mortgage issues remain a key factor in influencing mortgage fraud directly and indirectly. The subprime share of outstanding loans has more than a doubled since 2003 putting a greater share of loans at higher risk of failure. Additionally, during 2007 there were more than 2.2 million foreclosure filings reported on approximately 1.29 million properties nationally, up 75 percent from 2006. The declining housing market affects many in the mortgage industry who are paid by commission. The FBI says during declining markets, mortgage fraud perpetrators may take advantage of industry personnel attempting to generate loans to maintain current standards of living.

Many of the key industry personnel often involved are real estate property appraisers valuing the homes and properties prior to bankers signing off on loans.

Data from law enforcement and industry sources identify the states most affected by mortgage fraud during 2007 and indicated that the top 10 mortgage fraud states for 2007 were Florida, Georgia, Michigan, California, Illinois, Ohio, Texas, New York, Colorado, and Minnesota.

The downward trend in the housing market provides an ideal climate for mortgage fraud perpetrators to employ a myriad of schemes suitable to a down market. Several of these schemes have emerged with the potential to spread as the recent rise in foreclosures, depressed housing prices, and decreased demand place pressure on lenders, builders, and home sellers. Emerging and re-emerging schemes for 2007 included builder-bailouts, seller assistance, short sales, foreclosure rescue, and identity thefts exploiting home equity lines of credit.

Fraudulent practices have become dreadfully systemic within the mortgage industry, as unrestrained mortgage fraud has bankrupted some of the best and longtime solid financial institutions. If the FBI fails to quickly regulate, enforce, and imprison fraudulent professionals within the banking and real estate industry, expect to see the dollar tank along with the U.S. economy. After which consumers will only be able to buy gold, Euros, or China’s Yuan to protect their life savings and investments.

http://www.bullionvault.com/#paulfdavis

Real estate property appraisers therefore may be the last line of defense to maintain accountability and accuracy before straw buyers succeed in excessively borrowing beyond the market value of a property’s worth and thereby jeopardize the security of loans throughout the banking industry.

Real estate property appraisers must like never before show due diligence when representing their fiduciaries the banks and report to legal authorities any manipulative and coercive attempts by lenders and borrowers to adjust property valuations they sign off on in their appraisal reports.

Secure Investments Considering World’s Best Banking Systems as measured by World Economic Forum

The World Economic Forum has identified the world’s soundest banking systems across the globe. Vital information for any consumer and investor to know in these devastatingly uncertain and turbulent times.

http://www.bullionvault.com/#paulfdavis

http://ads.easy-forex.com/Gateway.aspx?gid=104994

Canada has the world’s soundest banking system. Good news for me considering my wife is Canadian. Should this Yankee need to flee for a financial safe haven (and free health care), Canada will be a great option.

Closely behind followed Sweden, Luxembourg and Australia. As financial crisis and bank failures shake world markets, the survey by the World Economic Forum provided some enlightening and startling information about arrogant and seemingly (now questionably) economic super powers such as Britain and America.

Britain, which once ranked in the top five, has slipped to 44th place behind El Salvador and Peru, after a 50 billion pound ($86.5 billion) pledge this week by the government to bolster bank balance sheets.

The United States, where some of Wall Street’s biggest financial names have collapsed and been crippled in recent weeks, rated only 40, just behind Germany at 39, and smaller states such as Barbados, Estonia and even Namibia, in southern Africa.

The World Economic Forum’s Global Competitiveness Report is worth earnestly heeding and considering before investing in nations whose banking systems are problematic and given to systemic failures.

As for me, I’m extremely bearish on the dollar. Despite short-term gains based on momentary hype, patriotism, and the global credit crunch …look for the central and foreign banks across the globe to dump dollars and buy gold, Euros, Chinese yuan, and Japanese yen. The day of dollar dominance is over!

http://www.bullionvault.com/#paulfdavis

http://ads.easy-forex.com/Gateway.aspx?gid=104994

My advice to investors, follow the lead of the Central and foreign banks. Beware of listening to the U.S. media’s propaganda machine. The world is disenchanted with America thanks to the war in Iraq and U.S. military imperialism to prop up the dollar as OPEC’s currency of choice. America’s longtime arrogance is coming to an end with the death of the dollar.

http://www.bullionvault.com/#paulfdavis

http://ads.easy-forex.com/Gateway.aspx?gid=104994

When the dollar dies, look for the global economy to say good riddance.

The top 20 ranked banking systems are:

1. Canada

2. Sweden

3. Luxembourg

4. Australia

5. Denmark

6. Netherlands

7. Belgium

8. New Zealand

9. Ireland

10. Malta 11. Hong Kong

12. Finland

SEC Suspends Fair Value Accounting, U.S. Bailout Legislation Thwarts Market Transparency

Ironically, in typical Washington and Wall Street fashion (remember the proverbial revolving door between business and political “service”) the bailout legislation engineered by Washington further allows Wall Street accountants to cook the books, postpone recording losses, and suspend fair value accounting at the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

http://www.bullionvault.com/#paulfdavis

http://ads.easy-forex.com/Gateway.aspx?gid=104994

I suppose a temporary placebo is preferred in Washington over market transparency. Evidently lame duck President George W. Bush would like a bit more breathing room before he is replaced. Incidentally, President Bush has broken the record for most days spent on vacation as a U.S. President, by far surpassing President Ronald Reagan amassing more than 500 days on holiday.

Is it any wonder the U.S. economy is in deep recession and nearing depression?

If you have any brains, protect what is left of your life savings by buying gold, Euros, or Chinese yuan. Sell your dollars before they decline and devalue overnight.

Protect Your Savings, Learn from Foreign Central Banks and the Super Rich

In uncertain economic times as these when U.S. banks, government institutions, and the FDIC itself is nearing bankruptcy… don’t be unwise and bet on big brother to take care of you. Let’s not forget the United States of America is the world’s largest debtor nation with $10 trillion and counting amassing billions in interest daily.

http://ads.easy-forex.com/Gateway.aspx?gid=104994

Given America’s troubling foreign policy by which it irritates and alienates many of the nations holding its debt and Treasury bills, it won’t be long before the nations of the world and OPEC say no more and opt for other currencies over the dollar.

Be discerning and diligent to guard your hard earned assets and protect your life savings. Learn from the foreign central banks governing monetary policy of nations and the super rich, who diversify their currency reserves and are increasingly adding their holdings of gold, Euros, and Chinese yuan while dumping dollars.

Foreign Currency Exchange Swap Lines – What Central Banks are Whispering?

In response to continued strains in short-term funding markets, Central Banks across the world have coordinated actions to significantly expand the capacity to provide U.S. dollar liquidity. Central banks publicly commit to continue to work together closely and say they are prepared to take appropriate steps as needed to address funding pressures.

This should serve to drive up the value of the dollar on the short-term (for a month or so) until fear and panic eventually take hold and Central Banks one by one begin dumping dollars.

That being said, there are some short-term possible gains for those who invest in the dollar and substantial long-term gains for those who sell dollars while they are high and opt to invest and protect their savings in strong currencies such as the Euro and Chinese yuan. Of course a safe haven for consumers and investors with less intestinal fortitude would be gold.

http://www.bullionvault.com/#paulfdavis

http://ads.easy-forex.com/Gateway.aspx?gid=104994

The U.S. Federal Reserve announced several initiatives to support financial stability and to maintain a stable flow of credit to the economy during this period of significant strain in global markets.

The Fed commits to continue to adapt these liquidity facilities as necessary and will keep them in place as long as circumstances require.

Actions by the Federal Reserve include:  (1) an increase in the size of the 84-day maturity Term Auction Facility (TAF) auctions to $75 billion per auction from $25 billion beginning with the October 6 auction, (2) two forward TAF auctions totaling $150 billion that will be conducted in November to provide term funding over year-end, and (3) an increase in swap authorization limits with the Bank of Canada, Bank of England, Bank of Japan, Danmarks Nationalbank (National Bank of Denmark), European Central Bank (ECB), Norges Bank (Bank of Norway), Reserve Bank of Australia, Sveriges Riksbank (Bank of Sweden), and Swiss National Bank to a total of $620 billion, from $290 billion previously.

These steps are being undertaken in an attempt to mitigate pressures evident in the term funding markets both in the United States and abroad.  The Federal Reserve’s actions are desiring to reassure financial market participants that financing will be available against good collateral, which they hope will lessen concerns about funding and rollover risk.

84-Day Maturity TAF Auctions
The increase to $75 billion per auction will triple the supply of 84-day maturity credit to $225 billion from $75 billion.  TAF credit at the 28-day maturity will remain at $75 billion.  The total amount of TAF credit available in the 28-day and 84-day auction cycles will double to $300 billion from $150 billion.

Foreign Exchange Swap Lines
The Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) has authorized a $330 billion expansion of its temporary reciprocal currency arrangements (swap lines).  This increased capacity will be available to provide funding for U.S. dollar liquidity operations by the other central banks.  The FOMC has authorized increases in all of the temporary swap facilities with other central banks.  These larger facilities will now support the provision of U.S. dollar liquidity in amounts of up to $30 billion by the Bank of Canada, $80 billion by the Bank of England, $120 billion by the Bank of Japan, $15 billion by Danmarks Nationalbank, $240 billion by the ECB, $15 billion by the Norges Bank, $30 billion by the Reserve Bank of Australia, $30 billion by the Sveriges Riksbank, and $60 billion by the Swiss National Bank.  As a result of these actions, the total size of outstanding swap lines is $620 billion.

All of the temporary reciprocal swap facilities have been authorized through April 30, 2009.

Dollar funding rates abroad have been elevated relative to dollar funding rates available in the United States, reflecting a structural dollar funding shortfall outside of the United States.  The increase in the amount of foreign exchange swap authorization limits will enable many central banks to increase the amount of dollar funding that they can provide in their home markets.  This should help to improve the distribution of dollar liquidity around the globe. Whether the value of the dollar holds on the long term against inflation and deflation however is highly unlikely.

That being said, there are some short-term possible gains for those who invest in the dollar and substantial long-term gains for those who sell dollars while they are high and opt to invest and protect their savings in strong currencies such as the Euro and Chinese yuan. A more cautious and safe route for consumers and investors is also found in the safe haven of gold.

Libor Rate Indicates a Dying Dollar and Sketchy U.S. Treasury

The LIBOR is among the most common of benchmark interest rate indexes used to make adjustments to adjustable rate mortgages.

Watch out for choking credit markets, as the financial crisis spreads from the U.S. to European stock markets causing a domino effect throughout the financial world.

Over the weekend, Germany implemented a bailout of its own, injecting €50 billion to help out struggling Hypo Real Estate bank, the nation’s Financy Ministry said.

Nevertheless as banks in Europe struggle, the European Central Bank has maintained its key lending rate. That tells me the Euro will be the strongest currency in the world and the one to invest in.

If you like gold for asset protection – play it safe here.   http://www.bullionvault.com/#paulfdavis

The 3-month Libor rate seems to be getting higher as the global credit crunch tightens on national banks throughout the world.
