J.J.'s Risky Business: China

Monday, November 10, 2014

Between all the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation meetings this week and the Hong Kong-Shanghai exchange linkup next week, China appears to be at the center of the economic/market multiverse at this point in time. Accordingly, it is completely unsurprising I focused on the country’s prospects in my “China’s President Xi Jinping Signals Economic Growth Could Slow To 7% In APEC CEO Summit Speech” at the International Business Times Sunday.

I also was able to bring up-to-date my proprietary U.S. Economic Index and the associated comparison of the historical monthly levels of the USEI and the SPDR S&P 500 ETF (SPY). Following are links to all the articles in this series published at Seeking Alpha this year:

SPY And The U.S. Economic Index Head In Different Directions In October

SPY, U.S. Economic Index Bid Farewell To Record Highs In September

Meteorites hit this planet all the time, but the ones making impacts are few and far between, which means the heavenly body that apparently struck the Nicaraguan capital of Managua Saturday seemed to be kind of a rare thing.

As I finalize the latest article about my proprietary U.S. Economic Index, I am seeing the European Central Bank’s move into quantitative easing Thursday in the same light. The USEI-centered analysis should be published at either J.J.’s Risky Business or Seeking Alpha within a day or two.

Meanwhile, I had a couple of news stories of interest published at the International Business Times since the Risky Business Monitor linkfest last week, as follows:
