China Economy important to Emerging Markets

To clarify a point about the size of the U.S. economy and its importance in the world, China imported 12% of global metals consumed in 2000. Now it imports up to 47% a year. China's growth has a major impact on emerging economies. The U.S. has no impact because it is a service economy. China has gone from sending less than a million travelers overseas in the mid-1980s to 100 million now. You hardly see American tourists in Asia any more.

US Growth had been driven mainly by Deficit Spending and Money Printing

 Marc Faber of the Gloom, Boom & Doom Report is worried about inflation given the Federal Reserve’s massive money printing efforts. But he doesn’t think diving headlong into gold and/or real estate is the best move. Faber tells FOX Business Network that he thinks investors should still use a diversified strategy, owning stocks, real estate, gold, and bonds as part of a disciplined approach. He also talks about his belief that US growth had been driven mainly by deficit spending and money printing.
