Dutch central bank transfers gold reserves from US and Canada to UK and Israel to diversify risks

Xie Jinhe: China's capital outflow helps Taiwan's economy, saying China is on the wrong track

Xie Jinhe pointed out that Taiwan's economic boom in recent years has actually benefited from capital outflows from China. Due to China's sluggish domestic demand, the bursting of the real estate bubble and improper policies, capital flight has led to Taiwanese businessmen leaving China and capital returning to Taiwan. He criticized China for taking the wrong track, and analyzed issues such as Sun Art Retail, RMB appreciation, the decline in U.S. debt holdings, and the impact of the Sino-US struggle on Taiwanese capital.
