Benjamin Wey's Way

With pre-G-20 summit meetings on the horizon, tensions continue to rise as China and Germany oppose the United State’s demand for lower a lower trade deficit and surplus. Beijing has called America’s push to let China’s currency appreciate a step toward “controlled economics.” Oddly enough, just this past Friday the Federal Open Market Committee injected over $600 million dollars into a US stimulus plan.

 

With that in mind, I wanted to gauge your interest in speaking with Benjamin Wey, a US-China business and trade relations expert and President of New York Global Group, a middlemarket firm specializing US-China investments and consulting, on the G-20 summit, “controlled economics,” and the ongoing currency war.

 

According to Ben:

 

• “When the Fed announced a new $600 million stimulus plan to bring US interests rate lower and keep it that way, they did a lot more to more to artificially improve its economy than any other country.”

 

• “Both sides of the trade, importers and exporters will not be affected by a lower trade deficit and surplus. The biggest influencer currently is, again, the US Fed’s large stimulus boost.”
