How do you know they can't print enough when they haven't tried printing money? They could print and thus increase internal consumption until they have a zero trade balance, which would help a lot of their issues, it is unclear how much but it would help.

China has been printing money since 2009. thus the 11 trillion off the book debts for local governments.

That’s 15 years. Why not for another 15 years? I mean eventually things might crash, but as the saying goes, “economists have predicted 9 out of last 5 recessions”.

based on the lack of big policy move from Chinese government this year, many thinks China has now run out of powder.
