China's Struggling Airlines Get Tax Break

China is taking new steps to shore up its aviation industry amid global economic turmoil, giving struggling airlines a $360 million tax break and $26 billion in loans to its main aircraft maker, state media said Friday.
The airline aid follows injections of government capital to help two of China's three main state-owned carriers through a travel slump. The lending to Aviation Industry Corp. of China reflects Beijing's continued desire to build up a civilian aircraft industry despite a decline in demand for planes.

Airlines will be exempt from a tax on fuel surcharges through 2010, a move that will save them up to 2.5 billion yuan ($360 million), the newspaper Shanghai Securities Journal said. It said the step is retroactive to Jan. 1, 2008.
China's airlines lost 7 billion yuan in January-November, according to state media. Beijing has injected a total of 13 billion yuan into China Eastern Airlines and China Southern Airlines.
Meanwhile, a group of 10 state-owned banks signed an agreement with AVIC on Thursday on a rotating credit line of up to 176 billion yuan, the newspaper China Securities News and the Xinhua News Agency reported.

AVIC is a co-owner of Commercial Aircraft Corp. of China, the lead company in the Chinese government's effort to produce large passenger jets to compete with global giants Boeing Co. and Airbus Industrie.
AVIC general manager Lin Zuoming said the money will be used for projects by the company's subsidiaries but gave no details, the Securities News said.
The push into commercial aviation comes despite government orders for carriers to cut back on aircraft purchases.

"We encourage airlines to cancel or delay 2009 aircraft orders," Yang Guoqing, deputy chief of the Civil Aviation Administration of China, said this week, according to the China Daily newspaper. "It is the duty of airlines to cut capacity, defer plane orders, return leased aircraft and ground or sell older planes."
China's first homegrown commercial aircraft, a 90-seat model made by an AVIC subsidiary, had its maiden flight in November and the government says it hopes to produce a 150-seat plane by 2014 to compete with Boeing and Airbus.
The lending group was led by Industrial & Commercial Bank of China Ltd., the country's biggest state-owned lender, according to news reports. They said ICBC, China Construction Bank Ltd. and China Citic Bank Ltd. each contributed 30 billion yuan, with the rest coming from smaller lenders.

The First Lesson That We Can Derive From The Last Crisis To Avoid The Next?

It would seem, is that short term and long term capital flows are two disparate phenomena with very little in common. The former is speculative and technical in nature and has very little to do with fundamental realities. The latter is investment oriented and committed to the increasing of the welfare and wealth of its new domicile.

It is, therefore, wrong to talk about "global capital flows". There are investments (including even long term portfolio investments and venture capital) – and there is speculative, "hot" money. While "hot money" is very useful as a lubricant on the wheels of liquid capital markets in rich countries – it can be destructive in less liquid, immature economies or in economies in transition.

Forex Development History

Foreign exchange development history - exchange market evolution foreign exchange development history - exchange market evolution gold remittance system and Bretton woods agreement

In 1967, a Chicago bank rejected to provide pound loan to a professor named Milton Friedman, because his purposed was to use this fund to sell short the British pound. Mr. Friedman realized excessively that the price ratio from the British pound to US dollar at that time was high, he wanted first to sell the British pound, after the British pound fell he buys back the British pound to repay the bank again. This family bank rejects the loan offer based on the "Bretton woods Agreement" which was established 20 years ago. This agreement has fixed the various countries' currency to US dollar exchange rate, and the price ratio between the U.S dollar and the gold is also fixed to 35 US dollars to each ounce of gold.

The Bretton Woods Agreement was signed in 1944, the purposed was to prevent the currency to escape between countries, and also to limit the international speculation, thus to stabilize the international currency. Before this agreement was signed, the gold remittance standard system which was widely used since 1876 - was leading the international economy system until the First World War. In the gold remittance system, the currency was at the stable level under the support of the gold price. The gold remittance system has abolished the old time king and the ruler which depreciates the currency value unlawfully, which will lead to inflation.

But, the gold remittance standard system is certainly imperfect. Along with a country economic potentiality enhancement, it can import massive products from overseas, until it exhausts the gold reserve of certain country. It resulted the supply of the currency reduces, the interest rate raises, the economic activity will start to decline until it reaches the recession limit. Finally, the commodity price falls to the valley, gradually attracts other countries to stream in, massively rushes to purchase this country commodity. This will pour gold into this country, this will increase this country currency supplies quantity, and it will reduce the interest rate, and will create the wealth. This is so called the "the prosperity - decline” pattern and is the circulation of the gold remittance standard system, until the trade circulation and the gold freedom was broken by the First World War.

After several catastrophes wars, the Bretton Woods agreement has appeared. The countries which signed the treaty agreed to maintain the domestic currency to US dollar exchange rate, as well as the necessity of the corresponding ratio of the gold, and only allow a small fluctuation. Countries are prohibited to depreciate the currency value for the gain trade benefit, only allows the country to depreciate not more then 10%. Enters the 50's, the continuous growth of the international trade causes the fund large-scale shift which produces because of the postwar reconstruction, this causes Bretton Woods system which establishes the foreign exchange rate to lose stability.

Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate risk refers to the profit and loss generated by fluctuations in the forward spreads, along with forward amount mismatches and maturity gaps among transactions in the foreign exchange book. This risk is pertinent to currency swaps, forward outright, futures, and options (See below). To minimize interest rate risk, one sets limits on the total size of mismatches.

A common approach is to separate the mismatches, based on their maturity dates, into up to six months and past six months.
All the transactions are entered in computerized systems in order to calculate the positions for all the dates of the delivery, gains and losses. Continuous analysis of the interest rate environment is necessary to forecast any changes that may impact on the outstanding gaps.

Euro Technical Outlook

I am sticking with the triangle pattern. Triangles consist of 5 waves, a-b-c-d-e.

If a triangle is underway, then wave e is underway now (possibly complete at 1.2772) and will end as a spike above 1.2772. Resistance begins at 1.28 and extends as high as 1.30. Rallies into this zone should be sold.
