China is not the Currency Manipulator!!!
The diplomacy games have started up once again between China
and the USA, two economic giants currently. USA has been the economic power
since long but China has been approaching recently and approaching good, almost
threatening the US economy. There are always presumptions made across the globe
that China has been undervaluing its currency which is actually not benefiting
the global economic equity and interestingly, USA did work a lot to convince
the world that China has not been working well for the global economic
fraternity. But then, coming to this period of time, the treasury department
has said that China is not the one who manipulated the currency though it
admits that the yuan is undervalued significantly.
The statistics suggest that yuan has gained almost a 9.3
percent in the nominal terms whereas 12.6 percent in real terms against the
dollar since 2010. Experts claim that both the country administrations have
come to the grounds of diplomacy escaping the fact that both should have come
to the confrontations for the discussions and then come up with appropriate
decisions. Recently, China has gone through fresh elections and USA has shown
up in the right time starting to convince China to work together, with mere
hope of success. The diplomatic lines say that China has reduced the
intervention and it is already on the steps to liberalize its controls on
capital movements which happen to be a part of the long term plan establishing
a flexible exchange rate regime. It is not only now when USA has been saying
this but even Mitt Romney during the presidential elections had argues that
China has been intentionally suppressing its currency value which is making its
goods cheaper globally and also creating unemployment in the USA.
Chinese Central Bank Governor Zhou Xiaochuan, on the other
hand, has said that the full convertibility of their currency is their next
step in an overhaul of the exchange-rate system. It is after almost the seven
quarter slowdown that the largest economy in Asia is showing the signs of
recovery and the two big administrations have shown some signs of possible
confrontations.
Both the economies have large impact on the overall
commodity market, therefore all global partners have been waiting for the
best!!!
