billybong Posted September 9, 2016 Share Posted September 9, 2016 (edited) http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2016-09-08/goldman-calculates-true-growth-rate-chinas-debt What this really means, is that China's debt/GDP, estimated most recently by the IIF at 300%... ... is now growing between 30% and 40% per year, when one accounts for the unaccounted for "shadow" credit conduits. Here is how Goldman concludes this stunning observation: The PBOC appears to have shifted to a less dovish, though still supportive, policy bias in the last few months. However, given the prospective headwinds from slower housing construction and tighter on-budget fiscal stance in the coming months, there remains a clear need to sustain a high level of infrastructure investment, which is credit intensive, to achieve the minimum 6.5% full-year growth target (see our recent comment here). This poses constraints on how much further the PBOC can keep reining in credit, in our view. Translating Goldman, some time around 2019, China's total Debt/GDP will be over 400%, an absolutely ridiculous number, and one which assured a banking, if not global, financial crisis. The only saving grace is that for the time being, the PBOC and Beijing have managed to sweep away China's unfixable problems under the rug, with a series of amazing distractions and the effectively nationalization of the stock, bond and FX markets. Alas, this is also the basis for "recovery" in all other developed nations, which means that as of this moment, it is a race between the world's central banks not who can devalue the fastest, but who can avoid losoing credibility first, and watch as these Keynesian mountains of debt, never before seen in the history of manking, come crashing down as JM Keynes "long run" finally catches up with everyone.

billybong Posted September 16, 2016 Share Posted September 16, 2016 (edited) ^ Probably nearer a 65 year low now. ^ On current trends give it another 5 years and velocity will be down to the lowest since just after the end of World War 2. Say 2020? Where is the inflation? House prices and assets etc? Edited September 16, 2016 by billybong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
