China and the US both export and import goods to/from each other- X – M from the US perspective < 0 trade deficit- This means that China will end up with US $, and they need to find a way to spend it in the US- However, the US doesn’t manufacture many goods that China would want, so instead China buys financial assets- So, M – X purchasing financial assets in another countryX – M Trade? Capital?
