That the Chinese government scholarship has been supporting for months with acrobatics, thinking gives and makes investors wary. “

Investment Strategist Simon Wiersma ING adds. ,, Concerns about a slowdown in China translate a decline in commodity prices. And this turn will lead to lower economic growth in other emerging markets. I am however not think China is off to a currency war. A further devaluation of the renmindi provides a much larger capital outflows, which can Do not use the land. “

Wiersma also points out that investors in the grip of an upcoming rate hike in the US ,, Judging from the minutes of the Fed itself I do not think this is already in September. The more so, because commodity prices since the last policy meeting further sunk. Long-term interest rate increase is however not bad, because the cheap money now unprofitable companies maintaining them. “

Nijkamp excludes certainly not that the stock market climate in the coming weeks remains poor. ,, August and September, after all, are traditionally the worst months of the year. In October, you can use a recovery. The outlook for equities in the long term remains positive fact. “

According to Wiersma, much depends on the macro data and commodity prices. ,, A recovery in commodity prices, especially of oil also can provide a better market climate. For now it does appear that volatility remains high. “

Indeed! … A little cash in your pocket does not hurt, because many, self-named securities analysts were not high ‘blue dress’ content during their fantastic predictions ? …. But hey! .. Their predictions are almost as reliable as a weather man / woman! …. That last category I take seriously! …..

The companies can not continue to manipulate the figures, paper is patient. And just continue to say that the economy is doing well, people have no purchasing power? That is now seven years after the crisis twice over by count, no trust, through all the cuts and tax increases. Is waiting for the next blow, sit back in the eve as in 2007. Raw materials, oil, etc. on the depth point, now follow the fairs!

This malaise is a direct result of the interest rate policy of the central banks and the charging of the crisis, such as in Greece by Jan modal, retirees and other people who succumb monthly among higher taxes of our political friends or threaten to collapse. Governments continue to pile up debt without need that any proper purpose. The 0% interest rate policy is deadly, CB also now have no weapon with hands. How stupid can you be

Now it’s something quiet and evenly or china addressed to shoot panic. They make each other mad at the fair.
