The author exhibits zero understanding of actual MMT and criticizes a wildly mistaken stereotype. Not a good sign from China.

However, this would count toward Wang Shuo's concern about the surge in central bank "money printing." While the understanding of the facts is wrong, the facts appear to be influencing expectations.

Re gold:

Since gold is a private asset form, Central Banks have no business buying it since that violates equal protection under the law via fiat creation NOT for the general welfare.

So if that ethical principle were established in law, we could expect the price of gold to take a major hit.

But who wants ethical finance?
