Krugman took on the topic recently, calling for a significant appreciate of the yuan.<br /><br />http://www.nytimes.com/2010/03/15/opinion/15krugman.html<br /><br />Mr Hempton: any comments? Possible topic for a future blog post?<br /><br />If you do tackle the issue, would you kindly mention your inflationary outlook on such a move? If Chinese goods became more expensive, it seems like we would be importing inflation, not deflation like we do now. And Krugman mentions if interest rates rise, the Fed could just buy long dated treasuries to hold rates down. But wouldn't this be akin to printing money and add further to inflation? <br /><br />Many thanks.Quinnnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4815867514277794362.post-81468617718550203892010-03-18T15:44:40.754+11:002010-03-18T15:44:40.754+11:00Scott - closer 60km...
