Beijing turns to currency to cool inflation<\/strong><\/a> <\/a><\/h2>\n
The Associated Press\u00a0– \u200e2 hours ago\u200e<\/div>\n

BEIJING (AP) \u2014 Surging inflation that helped trigger protests in Shanghai is prompting China’s leaders to turn to a tool they long resisted: Speeding up the rise of the country’s tightly controlled currency.<\/p>\n

Rising prices are a political threat to China’s communist leaders and they have declared taming inflation their priority. But they suffered a setback in March, when a double-digit jump in food costs pushed inflation to a 32-month high of 5.4 percent. That was despite four interest rate hikes since October, curbs on bank lending and government orders to producers to hold down price increases…On Friday, the central bank set the yuan’s exchange rate at 6.49 to the U.S. dollar \u2014 its highest official level since a currency revaluation in 2005.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

While those steps may help reduce certain forms of inflation in Russia and China, they are likely to contribute to increased inflation in countries like the USA which import a lot of goods from China.\u00a0 And even the Russian gasoline export tax may as well as it will tend to increase the price of oil around the world.\u00a0 Not only would fuel shortages within Russia hurt politically, they also could contribute to an increase in inflation over there as well.<\/p>\n

Furthermore, increases in interest rates (which both the Russians and Chinese are doing) will ultimately affect the USA and UK which are borrowing heavily and who will need to continue to refinance their debts.<\/p>\n

What is happening in the Russia and China today are just small additional steps that will have negative ramifications on the USA and its dollar.\u00a0 And this is consistent with Bible prophecy.<\/p>\n
