hello everyone thank you for tuning in I came across quite unusual and I would even say perhaps ominous somewhat ominous article in light of the latest economic events the article was published by Bloomberg and I thought I would share it with you today I think this is very important so
Bloomberg is reporting that the United States and China agreed to create a joint contact group for cases of finan IAL stress this is good news of course as it shows that there is a desire to cooperate on matters that may have Global implications and given how interconnected the world is a financial
crisis in the United States or in China would in theory have a Global Effect however the timing of the decision is quite interesting given that about two weeks ago on August the 5th the Japanese Stock Exchange Stock Market and then subsequently followed by global
Markets crashed sparking fears of an imminent financial crisis although Markets
have recovered since then this recent volatility is perceived as a distinct red flag according to Bloomberg China’s central banks said a meeting in Shanghai produced an agreement with the US Treasury to appoint contact people to deal with any future quote Financial stress
events a rare example so Bloomberg is acknowledging that this is a very rare example of the world’s two biggest economies seeking Common Ground last year the United States and China set up a financial working group that is tasked with focusing on the China US Financial stability Corporation
the US Treasury released a statement on August the 19th this week stating in support of coordination during times of financial stress to strengthen appropriate information sharing and reduce overall uncertainty between Treasury and the People’s Bank of China
regarding crisis management and recovery and resolution Frameworks I do believe that a degree of coordination in response to a possible economic or financial downturn is indeed a step in the right Direction it would be nice to see this type of thinking this line of thinking expand and possibly
cover other areas preferably related to security although we of course understand that that is highly highly unlikely that is wishful thinking of course but still it seems to me that creating a joint Financial Response Group or team however you want to refer to it is quite unusual especially for
the United States and China so this leads us to the question why is this happening now what what is this timing how could we explain it so I believe that there are several reasons and I will focus on the two top reasons in this CashNews.co first of all China the single largest foreign buyer of us
treasuries has been selling us treasuries at an accelerated pace for over a year now as you can see here over the last decade the Holdings have declined almost to the 2010 levels at the same time there has been a consistent demand for Gold by central banks of China as well as by the central banks
of Russia and India so the two Trends support dollarization moreover the United States is fully aware that China the number one trading partner for most countries in the entire world is now settling an increased number of transactions in the Yuan versus the US dollar as the entire world and I
believe the United States as well understands that the United States is on the path to a sovereign Debt crisis far worse than the 2008 financial crisis the risks to global economy are actually immense due to that very reason economies are so interconnected in the latest report as
of July of this year the international monetary fund fund included a brief discussion of international trade trends that highlight the ongoing Global Market fragmentation and countries actually imposing unilateral trade restrictions which will ultimately lead to much weaker economic growth globally
and less resilience to a variety of shocks including those related to Armed conflicts or a Health crisis the IMF right in many countries public Finances have deteriorated
more than foreseen before the pandemic leaving them more vulnerable more countries are now going their own way imposing unilateral tariffs or industrial policy measures this surge in unilateral measures is not likely to deliver lasting and shared Global Prosperity this is so important if anything
it will destroy trade and resource allocation spur retaliation weaken growth and make it harder to coordinate policies that address Global challenges unfortunately we find ourselves increasingly at a remove from these basic principles even though the IMF didn’t really go into too many details
there it is quite clear in my personal opinion that the risks are increasing and in general unless those factors that worsen this discouraging Outlook are reversed and I’m mainly talking about economic sanctions about trade barriers about armed conflicts here unless those are somehow reversed
I would argue that it is safe to assume that economic conditions are unlikely to improve substantially so with that in mind I believe that this joint attempt between the United States and China to somehow manage global Financial risks the attempt is a response to escalating threats and risks very
often I discuss the most recent economic data and the risks associated with the banking sector and I believe that the data applies here as well it describes the economic conditions that effectively motivated this type of collaboration or at least an attempt to communicate China has historically
been one of the top US Debt holders yet due to geopolitical tensions it has been selling its Holdings Japan has been doing the same even Belgium has sold its US treasuries the US is very concerned that the global demand for the US dollar is gradually declining it’s not going
to disappear all of a sudden or overnight but it will grow weaker if we look at the banking sector we have to admit that the financial sector is interdependent for example German banks have high exposure to the the United States commercial Real Estate Loans with
commercial property Valuations declining 2030 or even 40 50% those Overexposed German banks are on the hook here with Germany being Europe’s largest economy it is safe to say that Europe will be impacted in fact European Banks hold 1.5 trillion dollar in the troubled us
mortgage Loans these banks are concerned about a lender’s ability to handle the risk well they won’t be able to handle it French and German banks are the biggest commercial Real Estate lenders hopefully this Illustrated just how interconnected Global
economies are it is not surprising at all then that as uncertainty Rises there is less confidence in the recovery the coordinated effort between the United States and China to at least have an open line of communication just just in case is a sign that a worst case scenario would be truly
devastating and it pushed them to I’m assuming to at least make an attempt to mitigate some risks this quick CashNews.co I hope that it was informative if that’s the case please show your support give this CashNews.co a thumbs up consider sharing it and subscribe both on Rumble and on

2025 26 not now
a crash is coming soon. follow by recession
MMT the people’s economic system 🙏🏼 Dr Stephanie Kelton. Real economics
The economic data we are getting is bullshit and f*cking lies! All due to an election season. All hell breaks loose next year regardless of who becomes president of the lying US.
Makes sense. Just in time for monkey pox. Preparing for the next planned crisis. Maybe it's a financial crisis coming also. I can't tell if China is a good guy or bad guy.
Or maybe because of the amount of UST China has the US is sucking up to be let down easy. I'm confused by this. China should know doing business or making deals w the US is not a good business. Any new president can just step in and undo things. They have 4 or 8 yrs max out of US dwals. Who wants to do anything like that?
Thanks again Lena, always great & important content.
Decoupling, then de-risking, somehow the US is beginning to realize that it can't rule the world all by itself. Well, Joe Biden in a moment of grandiose in an interview recently, saying that "…he rune the US, and he runs the world" !! I guess we can find room in our heart to forgive him being an American and also the fact that he has a brain worm chewing up his grey matters.
Janet Yellen and her counterpart in China worked out a plan with a spiffy name "Joint Anti-Financial Crisis Group".
Yellen to China:
"I think we are going to hit a wall !"
China:
"Wall ? Is that the tariffs wall you imposed on us that you are talking about ?"
Yellen:
"No…Signs are bad. We might have another round of financial crisis. Can we work out jointly a plan?"
So off they went and came up with a "Joint Anti-Financial Crisis Group". Here it is…
(1). Keep the communication channel open.
(2). Keep your wallet open,
(3). Keep buying US bonds,
(4). Hold hands.
China is puzzled. WTF? Why holding hands to fight off a financial crisis?
Yellen explained:
"Well…we hold hands so that when I jump, we both fall to our death together !"
China:
"You Americans are such geniuses. How about you jump off the cliff first. As soon as you lift off, I will set the stop watch to see how long it takes you to hit the bottom of the cliff."
Yellen is shocked to hear such nonsense:
"Wait…I thought we were friends?"
China:
"Didn't you try desperately to de-risk from us?"
Good there are people who are realy thinking !
Cooperación is the key to our economic problems.
Excellent video! We all live together(all nations); we need to work together to encourage world wide peace and prosperity not greed, selfishness and bullying.
Covid solidified the banking cabals hold on the masses…translation instant QE
Why only do it now, USA? Did a bunch of your elites finally see the end of that crumbling tunnel?
The US willing to cooperate with China, tells us that the US is facing imminent trouble.
100 countries tied to the dollar, will crash in 24/25.
excellent
You analysis is way off
Could this be fake news the US is good at, just to cool thing down in US😂😂😂
The markets haven’t “recovered” in any medical sense, they got an emergency stimulus of funny money from the hedge funds holding the inflated stocks.
America's greatest opportunity will be the sale of its agriculture,
energy and technology products to the world at reasonable prices
payable in gold, silver or the US Dollar.
Why help these warmongers who have only brought misery to us?
The US us is going to crash
US needs China to help support its economy if and when it collapses. Shows you how powerful China is. US is going to fall down the cliff very soon. It needs China to pull it back from the brink. It is to China's benefit as well because an American collapse will also affect China. It is the smart thing to do. Besides it will also save the world, for which it should thank China.
China is part of the reason we are failing in the global market and the US wants to HELP them??????
Light energy unstake for people to stock value trading in ones to zillions within same time
Blackrock
Communists are within the US government and intentionally trying to destroy the country
well well well – not so divided it seems.
Proof that this information is vital. Is it fake news from bloombird?
Thank you Lena! For letting us know things are not improving. If China and the US are doing this it could be a sign of things to come.
US needs China more than China needs US
China do not bail US out, US will not be grateful, US and its allies will try even harder to contain and hobble china.
The Cabal’s plan is to crash the financial markets when Donald Trump wins the election. Take it to the bank.
Well if China is dumping all these treasuries then why is the price of treasuries going up?
America is on it's way to becoming Marxist through colluding with China.
Like US officials coordinating with CCP benefits average Chinese or Americans ? Selling them down the river is past performance sum.
So there will be no war between the USA and China?
Anyway China already knows US too well already. China will not be taken for a ride anymore.
China has always been having a Win Win policy. No like the US administration who always stab others on their back so as to keep themselves at the top. Nevertheless the US economy is crumbling.
Woke, broke & worried.
