China’s increasingly frantic, increasingly dangerous game of financial markets Whac-A-Mole
China faces a depreciating currency, a bond market that has switched from rally to sell off, huge outflows of cash, and what looks like a resurgence of inflation.

You think that it’s just a coincidence that this charge comes after President-elect Donald Trump has ramped up his rhetoric about branding China a currency manipulator?
