U.S. jobs depend on China revaluing its currency now
by Eugene McElroy 29 Jun '10

29 Jun '10

Growing trade deficits with China eliminated or displaced 2.4 million U.S. jobs <http://www.epi.org/publications/entry/bp260/> between 2001 and 2008. China’s manipulation of its currency, the Renminbi (RMB), is responsible for at least 1 million of these displaced jobs. The best estimates show that the RMB (or yuan) is undervalued by at least 40%, which makes U.S. goods 40% more expensive for Chinese purchasers and makes Chinese goods artificially cheap in the United States (and to a lesser extent around the world). China said over the weekend that it will follow a more flexible exchange rate, but as we learned yesterday, this does not ensure that the RMB will increase in value. While the RMB rose slightly on Monday, China’s big, state-owned banks intervened to pull it back down to the level of last week’s peg in overnight trading. http://www.epi.org/analysis_and_opinion/entry/u.s._jobs_depend_on_china_rev… -- Eugene McElroy Library Associate School of Management and Labor Relations SMLR Library Rutgers University 50 Labor Center Way New Brunswick, NJ 08901 (732) 932-9513
