Is China Secretly Targeting the Dollar? The Week's Top Stories 11/30 - 12/4 Profit From the Looming Spike in Crude Prices That the U.S. Oil Lobby Doesn't See Coming [Editor's Note: Money Morning recently conducted an extensive Q&A with Dr. Kent Moors on the future of energy. Dr. Moors last wrote about a revolutionary new technology that takes low-value fuel and turns it into a high-hydrogen-content gas.] By Kent Moors, Ph.D. Contributing Editor Money Morning John Felmy has been the chief economist of the American Petroleum Institute (API) for years. He's well respected. And I appreciate his experience. But the two of us disagree more often these days. We most recently locked horns at Malone University in Canton, Ohio, last week, where we were debating the future of oil. (Actually, when the invitation was made, I was supposed to debate Sarah Palin. But she pulled out to go on the road and pitch a book she didn't write.) Read Full Article Martin's so sure how to play this market, he even guarantees it.

The Five Things You Need to Know About China By Keith Fitz-Gerald Chief Investment Strategist Money Morning/The Money Map Report Legendary investor, Bill "The Bond King" Gross made headlines recently when he said that China will one day have to contend with a bubble of its own making. Gross runs the world's biggest bond fund at Pacific Investment Management Co. LLC (PIMCO). Millions of investors reacted just as you would expect when someone of his prominence makes such a pronouncement - they panicked. While I can see how Gross would arrive at such a conclusion, his comment about China is akin to the economist who tells us that "the U.S. economy will recover."
