Australia has maintained its economy through strong trade with China as it exports commodities such as iron ore and coal to fuel China’s demand that it has generated through its stimulus package. But it could be dangerous for Australia to depend too much on China as a large part of the demand was in restocking inventories. Now Australia is trying to decide when it should take away its stimulus and how quickly it will tighten monetary policy, but I am also monitoring growth and trade with China as an important factor for future economic stability and growth in Australia.
