THE ANALYSIS
The Analysis - Introduction
All primary observations are assumptions are inductive truth; deduction is the tool to seek truth; and only then can a conclusion or perception can be argued; further monitor; or vetted Micro -> Macro -> Business Environment -> Currency Parity ->
Commodities then the reverse.The Economic Stresses must be analyze from a bottom-up,
then top-down, hence the Balance Sheets (financial statements, income statements and cash flow to the business environment; then
The sensitivities to county risk, to currency risk and to international risk need to be assessed in correlation for clarity of market movements and; the purpose to serve global policy or domestic regulations.

The Equity Relation to Gold
• Demand for parity from the IMF now indicates the Central Banking references to interest rates and lending.
• In maintaining GNI growth rates to lending commodities and precious metals are purchased by governments, treasury functions and fund managers (either private or sovereign, e.g.. Temasek, Singapore)
CRB spot index
Commodities are commonly used such as Copper, Oil, Gold, etc are considered trading cycles to bear increases in profitability for both risk and return levels due to the liquidity of the asset.
The Beginning
Correlations to Equity Composite to Commodity Index(1956-2004 relationship)
Parabolic relation to Gold and Copper
CopperDue to the demands from a nations GDP, and the demands from multiple nations, this commodity is used primarily as a liquid asset. The countries which use this commodity which has a restricted currency of exchange would use this as a median of exchange for trade deficit payments and government financial securities
GoldGold as a traditional medium of exchange and is used for leveraging within monetary bases (also invested from demand accounts) of the government treasury or reserve.Gold is used in Food and Drink, Industry, Electronics, Government Mints (coins)

China, The Crisis and Stimulus Package
• The USD added enthusiasm about the economic recovery in China is still premature. (global parity and opening of the RMB)
• GDP growth has eased from 6.1% to 6.8 in Q4, 2008 • Does China need a stimulus package in Keynesian Economics?
China’s Economic stimulus package is for the primary issues of reconstructing the urban post-earthquake infrastructure; development of education and training for more competitive employments to rural regions
