China cuts US Treasury holdings to lowest in nearly 12 years amid volatility in the US

China trimmed its holdings of US Treasury bonds for a fourth straight month in March by more than $15.2 billion, taking the total holdings to the lowest level since June 2010, in what experts said was a move to reduce losses as Treasury bond prices slid and help diversify China's foreign exchange holdings in the long run.

Compared with other foreign holders of US debts, China's reduction was moderate. In comparison, Japan trimmed $73.9 billion of US Treasury bonds in March, the largest drop among foreign holders, which experts said is a desperate move to shore up the yen's decline against the US dollar.

Tian said that in the short run, China may continue to buy US Treasury bonds, given there are few other better options for China to invest its vast foreign exchange reserve assets, but it should accelerate foreign exchange restructuring in the long run.

Tian suggested that China should increase its gold reserves, anchor the yuan to critical resource exports like rare earths, and increase the amount of yuan settlement and yuan pricing power when importing resources from other nations.

Turkey food inflation apart from known issues. the unique about Turkey is selling its real estate to wealthy people and long term rentals to tourists. now add lots of IT offshoring. when you add all these things there is very little left for Turks at reasonable prices. wealthy can consume much more without producing anything locally. the known issues are also unique.

US investigators believe someone in the cockpit deliberately crashed a China Eastern flight that suddenly plunged to the ground in southern China in March, the Wall Street Journal has reported.

The flight data recorders recovered from the crash site were sent to the United States for analysis and show that someone – possibly a pilot or someone who had forced their way into the cockpit – input orders to send the aircraft into a nosedive.

“The plane did what it was told to do by someone in the cockpit,” a person familiar with the preliminary assessment by experts on the US National Transportation Safety Board told the Journal.

How long has the pilot and Co-pilots been employed with the airline and what were their financial situations, marital status. Were they habitual gamblers, involved in different business schemes etc.. Also were those pilots flew domestic only or were they international pilots as well. What was their religion, ethnic belongings, were they Han Chinese? Or members of the ethnic groups. These criterion am assuming have been looked at or looking into these to eliminate each of those possibilities with respect to finding the possible motivation(s) for the theory that it was a criminal act and not an act of God.

Take a look at the history of 737 vertical crashes. When it’s non western the initial blame is always on human factors. This includes the Max.

Eventually the real problem surface years later.

Pilots are not stupid, they are fully aware that diving a commercial plane with recorders on board bear no financial fruits what they dream of.

Israel's actions could eventually escalate the current Russia-NATO conflict into WW3 if they decide to go that way.
Unfortunately there are a lot of people in both countries who seem to think that is a good thing. In the US because it will bring back Jesus, and in Israel because it will bring back David. Lol. Retarded idiots. Most likely result is dying in a ball of fire.
