This is the largest forex reserve in the world. The forex reserve increase has resulted in an extraordinary excess of liquidity for the country which exerts tremendous pressure on the Chinese currency, the Yuan. To deal with this excess, in September of last year, the Chinese government created the CIC, the China Investment Corporate Limited, the country's first state initiated forex investment company. The mission of the CIC will be to invest in foreign financial markets and better manage and leverage the country's forex reserves. The working capital for the CIC was derived by issuing 1.55 trillion Yuan special treasury bonds, the equivalent of 200 billion USD.<br /><br />China's trade surplus is credited with the year-to-year increases in its foreign exchange reserve. China's trade surplus exceeded a quarter of a trillion dollars USD in 2007. This trade surplus exists in the backdrop of a declining US Dollar and an appreciating RMB, the Renminbi. By the end of 2007, the RMB had appreciated by over 6% against the USD.<br /><br />As the CIC matures, China will be the major player in the global forex trading market.<br /><br />For more information about forex for novice to advanced forex traders, check out <a set="yes" linkindex="21" href="http://www.forextradingessentials.com/">Forex Trading Essentials</a>, a website containing forex tools, strategy, forex broker info, currency charts, trading systems.<br /><br /><!-- forex currency trading --><br /><span style="font-size:100%;">Technorati tags : <a set="yes" linkindex="70" href="http://technorati.com/tag/forex" rel="tag">forex</a>, <a set="yes" linkindex="70" href="http://technorati.com/tag/forex%20trading" rel="tag">forex trading</a>, <a set="yes" linkindex="70" href="http://technorati.com/tag/currency" rel="tag">currency</a>, <a set="yes" linkindex="70" href="http://technorati.com/tag/currency%20trader" rel="tag">currency trader</a>, <a set="yes" linkindex="70" href="http://technorati.com/tag/currency%20pairs" rel="tag">currency pairs</a>, <a set="yes" linkindex="70" href="http://technorati.com/tag/learn%20forex" rel="tag">learn forex</a>, <a set="yes" linkindex="70" href="http://technorati.com/tag/make%20money" rel="tag">make money</a>, <a set="yes" linkindex="70" href="http://technorati.com/tag/forex%20trading%20essentials" rel="tag">forex trading essentials</a>, <a set="yes" linkindex="70" href="http://technorati.com/tag/global%20currency%20exchange" rel="tag">global currency exchange</a>, <a set="yes" linkindex="70" href="http://technorati.com/tag/foreign%20exchange" rel="tag">foreign exchange</a>, <a set="yes" linkindex="70" href="http://technorati.com/tag/trade%20currencies" rel="tag">trade currencies</a>, </span><span style="font-size:100%;"><a set="yes" linkindex="70" href="http://technorati.com/tag/forex%20broker" rel="tag">forex broker</a>, <a set="yes" linkindex="70" href="http://technorati.com/tag/forex%20trading%20systems" rel="tag">forex trading systems</a><br /><br /><br /></span><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size:100%;"><span style="font-size:85%;"><a set="yes" linkindex="21" style="font-weight: bold;" href="http://www.forextradingessentials.com/">Forex Trading</a><span style="font-weight: bold;"> for the currency trader whose only goal is to make money!</span></span></span><br /></div>certifiednaturalhealthgeekhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11613517708803660823noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6847934945447527499.post-48523584716019780562008-01-09T00:57:00.000-05:002008-01-09T01:40:58.886-05:00Forex Top Ten Traded Currencies in 2007<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://forex-trading-digest.blogspot.com/2008/01/forex-top-ten-traded-currencies-in-2007.html"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj-usdel5eL4KbXvyhNbqZ8VoG78uWsyPwViEDH3SyuRnqLKcyP-XboL4xc9pZ0nyOzADBDxv_9YExOkib8FnxzfGxX76G5_cmmKrC-vhctj8v7Hiuk1aw9C3SLyawfFm6I7FIen5ZZttY/s200/eur_usd_chart.png" alt="forex top ten currencies" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5153360305014142018" border="0" /></a>2007 was an interesting year for the global financial markets.

While the dollar has been considered the world's reserve currency for decades, growing concern rises as to whether the US dollar will be able to maintain that status. Pressure from both record gold and oil prices further depresses the value of the dollar.<br /><br />Last week, vice chairman of China's National People's Congress, Cheng Siwei, suggested that China might diversify away from the dollar favoring "stronger currencies over weaker ones" through their foreign exchange reserve policies. This coupled with rising energy and commodities prices increases the likelihood of possibly the dollar loosing ground on the world stage.<br /><br />However, the dollar has faced challenges before. The US dollar like its people is quite resilient. Forex traders have been aware of the trends with the US dollar for quite some time looking for profit opportunity on the upside as well as the downside. Global economic events surrounding the dollar should not go unnoticed for those involved in forex trading.<br /><br />For more information about forex trading for novice to advanced forex traders, check out <a set="yes" linkindex="21" href="http://www.forextradingessentials.com/">Forex Trading Essentials</a>, a website containing forex tools, forex broker info, currency charts, trading systems.<br /><br /><!-- forex currency trading --><br /><span style="font-size:100%;">Technorati tags : <a set="yes" linkindex="70" href="http://technorati.com/tag/forex" rel="tag">forex</a>, <a set="yes" linkindex="70" href="http://technorati.com/tag/forex%20trading" rel="tag">forex trading</a>, <a set="yes" linkindex="70" href="http://technorati.com/tag/currency" rel="tag">currency</a>, <a set="yes" linkindex="70" href="http://technorati.com/tag/currency%20trader" rel="tag">currency trader</a>, <a set="yes" linkindex="70" href="http://technorati.com/tag/currency%20pairs" rel="tag">currency pairs</a>, <a set="yes" linkindex="70" href="http://technorati.com/tag/learn%20forex" rel="tag">learn forex</a>, <a set="yes" linkindex="70" href="http://technorati.com/tag/make%20money" rel="tag">make money</a>, <a set="yes" linkindex="70" href="http://technorati.com/tag/forex%20trading%20essentials" rel="tag">forex trading essentials</a>, <a set="yes" linkindex="70" href="http://technorati.com/tag/global%20currency%20exchange" rel="tag">global currency exchange</a>, <a set="yes" linkindex="70" href="http://technorati.com/tag/trade%20currencies" rel="tag">trade currencies</a>, </span><span style="font-size:100%;"><a set="yes" linkindex="70" href="http://technorati.com/tag/forex%20broker" rel="tag">forex broker</a>, <a set="yes" linkindex="70" href="http://technorati.com/tag/forex%20trading%20systems" rel="tag">forex trading systems</a> </span>certifiednaturalhealthgeekhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11613517708803660823noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6847934945447527499.post-38762375735125297402007-11-10T20:51:00.000-05:002007-11-10T21:14:36.366-05:00Yen and Swissy take center stage in forex marketLast week's Fed announcement on Wednesday sent additional ripples through the currency market.
