Thanks for this Mydogs. Just goes to show you how everyone is somewhat dependent on the US economy. When we slow down, everyone will slow down. Our closest neighbors, and biggest volumne traders will feel it most – Canada, Mexico, China, Europe. And then their neighbors and traders will feel it. And so on, and so on.
I can’t always keep up with all the financial advice and exchange of financial ideas on this board, so forgive me if this has already been discussed on some other thread, but if foreigners knew how much debt American consumers have, and how big the RE bubble really was, wouldn’t they be pulling their money out in droves? What about our deficit? Don’t they think that’s worrisome? Do they not have an inkling of our situation? Or do they? If so, how is this manifesting?
Can someone tell me why they are still investing in us?
