In
a time when China is losing between a third and half of its pig herds
as a result of the unprecedented decimation unleashed by African swine
fever - less affectionately known as pig ebola - which has sent wholesale pork prices in China soaring to all time highs...
... China is increasingly finding itself at America's mercy.
・・・中国は米国の慈悲に頼らざるを得ないという状況におちいりつつある。
As Bloomberg reports, as China's hog herd is collapsing, Beijing's imports of U.S. pork exploded to a weekly record.
ブルームバーグによると、中国の養豚は崩壊状態だ、米国から中国への豚肉輸入は爆発的に増えている。
According to USDA data, in the week ended Oct. 3, pig imports soared
to 142,200 metric tons, more than 7 times greater than September's total
shipments of 19,900 tons.
China signaled it may import as much as 400,000 tons to stem a
domestic shortfall, and it now appears that the US may be the easiest
source of said pigs, which needless to say grants the US substantial
leverage in the ongoing trade talks. The swine fever outbreak killed
millions of pigs. The country also appeared poised to boost purchases of
agriculture products as a good-will gesture before talks between
Washington and Beijing on easing trade tensions.
Meanwhile, as BBG notes, volatility in hog futures in Chicago has
surged to a record, spurred by speculation on exactly when Chinese
demand would finally surface. The answer: right now.
最後の2段落だけ訳をいれました。 Big Silver-Stock Potential Adam Hamilton February 7, 2020 2689 Words The silver miners’ stocks are looking interesting. While they really lagged silver’s surge on gold’s bull-market-breakout rally last summer, their upleg since remains intact. Gold stocks’ own upleg peaked in early September. And silver itself remains wildly undervalued relative to gold, overdue to mean revert dramatically higher. When that happens during gold’s next upleg, the silver stocks have big potential to soar. Like the global silver market is vastly smaller than gold’s, silver stocks are a proportionally-little fraction of the precious-metals miners. As a small subset of a usually-ignored contrarian sector, the silver stocks often languish in obscurity. For decades there wasn’t even a silver-stock index, making sector analysis difficult. ...

Gold - Preparing For The Next Move by Tyler Durden Fri, 03/22/2019 - 05:00 Authored by Alasdair Macleod via GoldMoney.com, Note: this article is not and must not be construed as investment advice. It is analysis based purely on economic theory and empirical evidence. この記事は単なる分析であり、投資を推奨するものではない。 The global economic outlook is deteriorating. Government borrowing in the deficit countries will therefore escalate. US Treasury TIC data confirms foreigners have already begun to liquidate dollar assets, adding to the US Government’s future funding difficulties. The next wave of monetary inflation, required to fund budget deficits and keep banks solvent, will not prevent financial assets suffering a severe bear market, because the scale of monetary dilution will be so large that the purchasing power of the dollar and other currencies will ...
