A4:
Appreciating the Yuan may not decrease unemployment in China. Employment is China's greatest political concern with 1.3 billion - possible unrest / destabilization. Appreciating the Yuan would increase the wealth of Yuan holders and help all exporters to China (U.S. / non-Chinese exports).

This diversification is well underway. China's goal is to have its currency fully convertible. It will achieve this goal soon, as is shown by the convertibility now with Hong Kong. As this occurs, it will be in both China's and the world's best economic interests to let the Yuan find its own competitive level against the dollar, the Yen and the Euro. I see little risk of destabilization. These monetary authorities are not fools and they will engineer this to occur on a gradual basis.
A6:
I think the Chinese government. should let the Yuan float. The Chinese need to become less reliant on exports to drive their economy and increase their consumer spending. If this would happen, you would see the trade deficit balance out, and the Chinese would not have to such a large reserve of dollars. I think that in the next decade we will see a change in which the US will have... [continues]
