America’s declining birth rate foreshadows some tough financial times aheadCouples may be finding it more difficult to pay their bills, and they’re holding off on having more children until their financial situation improves. University of Notre Dame researchers said conceptions dropped ahead of the last three recessions, starting with the recessions of the early 1990s, the early 2000s and the Great Recession from 2008 to 2009.
Okupas muertos en un incendio, precisamente en IBIZA. El lugar donde se suponía que ya no había sitio y resulta que hay esqueletos de edificios enteros abandonados.Es todo tan surrealista https://www.elmundo.es/baleares/2019/05/13/5cd95e0dfc6c832a5b8b4690.htmlResido en una de las ciudades más turísticas del norte de España, y estoy cansado de ver edificios enteros en estado de abandono y cuasi derrumbe.Los ayuntamientos deberían haber empezado hace años a sacar órdenes municipales que obligasen al mantenimiento de los mismos, no puede ser que estén llenos de graffittis, ratas y basura. Hacen daño a la ciudad. De la misma forma que si yo abandono durante años (meses) un coche en la calle me ponen una multa -lo cual es lógico-, deberían haber hecho algo similar para los edificios. En algunas ciudades prohiben dejarlo una semana días en la misma plaza. Pero veo portales y entradas llenos de grafittis durante años, edificios sin ventanas, convertidos en palomares por el abandono.Y aqui no pasa nada.El pisito es el Dios intocable.Por no hablar del ingente número de casos policiales sin cerrar que terminan con un cadáver apareciendo meses o años después en naves industriales abandonadas, como Diana Quer y tantas otras.Las tragadereas de esta sociedad pisitofila son enormes.
China Has a $3.65 Trillion War Chest to Counter U.S. TariffsIf tariffs begin to really hurt China’s growth this year, there’s plenty of direct fiscal firepower left to stoke the economy before the People’s Bank of China would have to cut interest rates, according to an analysis of government spending by Bloomberg.
China steps up sales of US TreasuriesChina sold the most Treasuries in more than two years in March, ratcheting up concerns that the country might weaponise its position as the US government’s largest foreign creditor in the ongoing trade dispute between the two countries.
“Mandate of Heaven” in JeopardyIf China’s leadership decides that the risk of losing legitimacy at home outweighs the risk of conflict with the United States, the likelihood of war rises dramatically.
Why Kudlow Might Be Right Demographics, debt and disruptions are often the main deflationary culprits, but we think the American household has been responsible for the slowdown in global borrowing and spending.The Chinese economy has been the most acutely affected by the collapse in U.S. household credit demand. Unless another major global spender comes along, the Federal Reserve could be done with tightening for the next decade. “...don’t think rates will rise…maybe never again in my lifetime.”-Larry Kudlow, Director of the National Economic Council during an interview on April 11, 2019.Any Big Spenders Left?The only way this story changes is if another big spender comes along. But the two biggest contenders are already tapped out. In the U.S., the Senate won’t entertain an infrastructure plan without financing details. In China, policy leaders don’t want to keep gearing up the economy. As for the private sector, large population groups in the developed countries are shrinking and China’s cresting supply of labor means it could get old before getting rich. There is always a chance that corporate spending fills the void but so far that has not happened. Therefore, it looks like the big dis-savers are done spending for now and we are entering a new phase where old ideas resurface like the Modern Monetary Theory (MMT), which asserts that governments should just keep spending and central banks finance directly to prop up nominal growth. Parts of the world have already been doing this. The only difference is the half step of government debt issuance which the central banks of Japan and Europe have been buying; that has not been the case in the U.S., at least not yet. So, Kudlow could be right. The Federal Reserve might be done tightening for the next 10 years.

US-China trade war: What is President Trump's strategy?Looking even further back in China's history, perhaps Beijing is taking a page out of China's ancient strategic manual The Art of War.
Russia Could Take Hold Of China’s Entire Gas MarketPart of the increased tariffs will include U.S liquefied natural gas (LNG) imports, rising from a previous 10 percent levy to a damaging 25 percent starting June 1. The increase in tariffs already come as Chinese imports of the super-cooled fuel from the U.S. has plunged. A Reuters report said that in 2018 some 27 LNG vessels traveled from the U.S. to China, down from 30 in 2017. Meanwhile, most of those that left U.S. ports last year did so before the trade war started, with 18 tankers going to China in the first half of the year and just nine during the second half.(...) Simply put, without both Chinese funds and Chinese gas demand, the so-called second wave of the U.S. LNG development story will stall, losing out to eager competitors, including Russia.
