“Borrowing levels are high in China and it’s now taking greaterunits of credit to generate a unit of growth – much like the restof the developed world.”

Stan Druckenmiller, May 2013

China is at crossroads

10

• Home to 20% of the world’s population

• Household consumption accounts for 38% of GDP (US ~70%)

• World’s largest car market, 19.3m cars sold in 2012

• Largest internet market in the world

• Reduced the per-watt cost of solar power from over $3 (2008) to under $1 (2011)

� New regime acting more carefully, balancing growth,shifting from a production oriented economy to onecentred around household consumption

� Demand slowly recovering, expect growth around 7.5%

� Structural reforms designed to improve the supply sideof the economy

� Reforms would help sustain the growth of productivecapacity, improving the allocation of capital and labour

� Cutting red tape and other regulatory barriers to entrywould help private firms invest in industries nowdominated by state-owned enterprises

interest rates so low, equities are cheap. I feel sorry for people who

have clung to cash. For most of my life it has made dramatic sense

to hold equities.”
