Is This the Death of the Chinese Economic Miracle?
The Chinese are letting their currency devaluate in an attempt to revive a slowing economy. We wonder if this is the death of the Chinese economic miracle. The Wall Street Journal reports that U.S. stocks are sharply lower after the Chinese currency move.
U.S. stock indexes slid Tuesday after China’s devaluation of its currency signaled growing worry about slow growth from one of the world’s biggest importers of raw materials.
The onshore yuan on Tuesday posted its biggest one-day loss in two decades. A weaker yuan could hurt the competitiveness of firms outside China by making their goods and services relatively more expensive, while companies that generate sales in China could find revenue generated in yuan is worth less in their home currency.
The bosses of the managed capitalism economy have often seemed infallible as cheap labor attracted foreign investment and produced cheap and profitable exports for decades. However, we have often compared China to Japan of the 1980’s when the Japanese seemed ready to take over the world. A glut of hidden debt took down the Japanese economy and sent it into two decades of deflation. If this is the death of the Chinese economic miracle hidden debt may be the culprit for China as it was for Japan.
Chinese Debt
Many people know that China holds a few trillion in hard currency reserves. However, many businesses in China have debts denominated in U.S. dollars and not yuan. The Financial Times reports that China’s dollar debts come under pressure as the yuan devaluated.
