Bankruptcies in China Will Scare A Lot Of People

There is no question that there is now debt in China. In 2008 whn the world had a problem, China could help bail us out because they had gigantic money saved for a rainy day and they spent some of that money. America spent a lot of money but we did not have any money saved up, we just printed it and borrowed it. Yes, there is a difference in the world between 2016 and 2008, is that China does have debt now but nothing like America, Britain or Portugal or some other countries in the world.

You are going to have bankrupcies in China, at least I hope we are going to have bankruptcies in Chin, I hope that the Government lets them go bankrupt and that is going to scare a lot of people and de disruptive.

Global Markets: "I Am Worried About The World"

I am worried about the world in 2016 and in 2017. You have to remember, Japan which is the third largest economy in the world is in recession, officially in a recession, and many parts of Europe as you well know, there is a disaster going on in Europe.

The world economy is suffering in a lot of places and for people to blame all this on China... China is a victim more than a cause going forward. The real cause of course is the American central bank and the American government running up debt but China is a victim like everybody else.
