Washington Post,Dec.22,2007 page D3

Morgan Stanley announced a $5 billion investment from China's government-constrolled investment vehicle to help replenish its financial capital. Bear Stearns agreed to a $ 1 billion investment from China's Citic Securities. My comment: Citic was started by Yong,former VP,a graduate of St.John's University,1937 as a patriotic capitalist.
On page D1: Treasury chief Henry Paulson, Jr. saw the fund as a stabilizing force since such plan is designed to stabilize a vital segment of the credit markets.
The strategy called for banks across the globe to create a $100 billion fund aimed at jump-starting the troubled market for short-term loans,acting like a credit card for firms. My comment with light humor: It is all paper-created endeavor with faith and credit of the nations as honored by institutions and folks in the world for economic globalization. Henry Paulson Jr.is to be credited as a Credit Magnet with smart moves to solve financial problems with finesse. I salute him with kudos since he envisions the benefits of Sino-American Economics.
