His recent fact-finding trip to China confirms, he says, that China is focused on keeping the economy booming so that the Olympics in 2008 will be the biggest international event in the country’s history. But “serious trouble” lies ahead for China if it does not take necessary precaution, he says, and “all bets are off after the Olympics.” According to Skousen, China faces four great challenges that will intensify and could become critical by 2008. They include: 1. Rising income inequality between rural and urban incomes: City Chinese are earnings twice as much as rural Chinese. As a result, millions of rural farmers are moving into the city, a massive migration that could cause social strife. The government is trying to keep up with heavy construction of high-rise apartments, but it may not be enough. 2. A potential financial crisis: 70% of private banks are in trouble in China with massive bad loans: the Chinese capital markets are struggling, following the stock market collapse in 2001-04; currency speculation could surface; and if much of the investment turns out to be bad–-- China could be in for a financial disaster despite its nearly $1 trillion in foreign reserves, strong revenues and low deficit. 3. Lack of accountability among government agencies, including the judiciary: After decades of communist rule under Mao, there is a sense that no independent judiciary and basic property rights exist today. If a government official wants to build a high-rise over a piece of farmland, he does it – no questions asked. 4. Unstable geo-politics: Growing Chinese nationalism could destabilize the region if an incident arises with Japan or Taiwan. Fortunately, the rapid rise in trade and investment between the three will discourage an all-out conflict. Nonetheless, Beijing’s massive military buildup (at double-digit annual rates) is cause for concern.

The incendiary charge plays to voters back home. But as usual, Congress is off the mark.

There’s enormous pressure on prices, from the Chinese in particular, to other emerging markets. Although new sources of oil will be tapped over the coming years, the pressures in place now will accelerate.” In fact, he said, oil stocks have yet to reflect this trend. They’re up just 3.5% in the last 12 months. With the price of oil likely to rise sharply and the summer driving season at hand, Marquez is recommending oil stocks. “Under current conditions, oil is a good buy,” he said.

New home sales have dropped to 2004 levels and are continuing to decline. Price hikes have slowed. Buyer cancellation rates are up 30% in some areas.

Investors who flocked to real estate just a few years ago have curbed their appetite for rental units because cash flow from rents doesn’t cover exorbitant mortgages. But Skousen is among a small cadre of economists who think the real estate trend will be helpful to investors. He says that within the next two years, the real estate market could reward patient investors with some great deals. “This doesn’t mean buying a foreclosure,” he says. “It means taking the time to uncover real bargains, below their current market price.” In fact, Skousen remains a long-term bull on real estate, for the following reasons: • Superior tax advantages • Unstable geo-politics • America is for sale.
