Re: China Revaluation Q.

Impact on the majors as I see it:

1 Capital flowing out of the USD due to less Asian (not just China but Japan, Korea, Malaysia etc) central bank buying of the USD and US treasuries.

2 Capital flowing into Asian currencies seeking capital appreciation.

3 Capital flowing into other major currencies as Asian central banks rebalance their reserves away from the USD and into a basket of currencies.

Net effect should be?

USD/JPY to fall

EUR/JPY to fall

AUD/JPY to fall

AUD/USD to rise

AUD/EUR to rise

EUR/USD to rise
