China fact of the day
If Wal-Mart were a country, it would be China's eighth largest trading partner...
That is from Jeremy Haft's cheesy-looking but at times interesting All the Tea in China: How to Buy, Sell, and Make Money on the Mainland.

Since trading partner implies both imports and exports is this still true if you add WMT's exports to China and compare it to China's two way trade with other countries?

Today
25th October I see the dollar dwindling in circles. There is no chance the dollar will come up now as the Far Eastern economies are bettering the American dollar not just on the currency field, but the skies see the Chinese and Russian satellites after many year . Do not know if we are back to the era of Mao like years but the dollar is definitely out for some time.
Seems bad but that is the fact American will have to live with. I think the downfall was mostly because of the Iraq war and no oil or no WMD. The oil has shot up to 90 but this should not worry the consumers. The reason is simple. We are talking of the CPI. This means what one commentator has said, American can spend a lot. The purchasing power therefore denotes the GDP or NDP. Oil at 100 also is cheap( although at this time all eyes are on Iraq and turkey borders, I guess this is a political maneuver too), and the fires in California have shifted all eyes not on oil but the growing China and India and the Iran shaking hands with Putin who agrees that Iran can have the nuke facilities.
This put the GDP off the scoreboard for now. WE are looking at the CPI and the money I have to spend at this time. Do I have enough, then why do I to worry about the GDP. What is more the globalization state we are a small village. Therefore, I can safely look at the other places not particularly mine and leave the GDP totally off my life

Sir
I have some one who has posted the comment in Chinese Language. Not that I mind but I simply do not understand whether he is trying to tell me or praise my writing. Any way this is news. The complete African continent depends on the Chinese good as we in Tanzania cannot afford the expensive designer's choice. With the fake and counterfeits that comes out from through the world is so much that I know in confidence that I am buying the cheap goods from India, Fareast or China. We have been living with these goods since 1961 the independence of Tanzania.
I have no complaints .For that matter I see very little complain on the Chinese products from many countries except US and Australia screaming the head on toys only. That is not the Chinese total product. We have many other good things that come out from China
I thank you
