Everybody needs money. That's why they call it money.

From full global headquarters, this is Motley Fool Money.

Welcome to Motley Fool Money. Thanks for being here. I'm your host, Chris Hell.

And I'm joined by Motley Fool's Senior Analyst, Tim Hanson, James Early, and Ron Gross-Guys.

Good to see you. Good to see you, Chris.

We've got the latest from GM, Walmart, Apple, and more.

We've got best-selling author, Bethany McClain, and all the way from London.

We've got Motley Fool Managing Editor, Brian Richards.

Plus, we've got a few stocks on our radar. But we begin with the big macro.

China raised its bank's reserve requirements on Friday. It was the second increase in two weeks.

On Thursday, Fed Chief Ben Bernanke said that China's decision to undervalue its currency

had hurt the global economy. Now, Ron Gross-China is concerned about inflation.

The rest of the world is concerned about China slowing down. So what does it mean for investors?

Well, if we take a step back and we remember what happened last week when the actually stock markets around the globe

fell in anticipation of monetary tightening by China.

We're starting to see some of that as you mentioned the second time in two weeks.

We haven't seen an increase in interest rates yet, but I would imagine that that's on the way.

I'm not the China expert that Mr. Hansen is here, but certainly a slower China has repercussions

for multinational companies around the world, especially asset-based companies, commodities.

And we're seeing some of those stocks come down as a reaction.

Tim Hansen, what do you think?

The important thing to remember here is that there are really two China's out there.
