China's consumption of metals and other commodities in 2015 and expected demand with slower growth
08/26/2015
As producers of commodities that aggressively expanded during the boom years adjust production to reflect slower growth in China, supply should adjust to new levels of demand. Experts say the size of the Chinese economy means it will still require a steady supply of metals and other commodities. In the long run, as the Indian economy takes off some of the new demand from India could fill in for slower growth from China.

Declining confidence in economic decisionmaking in China in 2015, with opaqueness, lack of transparency, and unreliable data
08/25/2015
The decisionmaking for the economy and financial markets in July-August 2015 reveals flaws with a failed intervention in stock markets following an effort to prop up the markets, a devaluation of the currency, and other moves. The decisionmaking also showed a level of opaqueness, lack of transparency, and unreliable data, that increased nervousness in the financial markets.

Germany's stock market and the DAX Exchange with more exposure to China than the economy
08/26/2015
China is the fourth largest market for German exports, and the growth in the U.S., UK and Eastern Europe for exports is making up for the lower Chinese exports. As a result the economy is proving to be much more resilient than the stock market- the DAX exchange gave up all of the 27% in gains made in 2015 by August 2015 with the crisis in China. Experts see a positive trend for the German economy and the euro was a safe haven in August 2015.

China's pathway to economic progress for investment and consumer spending different from that in Japan, South Korea and Taiwan
08/25/2015
Porter of the NYT cites experts who point to the high investment rates of 50% and lower household consumer spending of 35% as very different from the 35% for investment and 50% for consumer spending that happened when Japan, Tawan and South Korea got to the level of development where China is in 2015. A large part of this is because of the state driven model pursued by the Communist Party in China that puts investment by state run enterprises ahead of consumers and savers.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
