PiZero vs Chinese Woes

From BBC News

“But this time the culprit is very much the Chinese currency, the yuan. The People’s Bank of China again surprised markets by settling the official midpoint rate on the yuan at 6.5646 against the US dollar – that’s the lowest rate since March 2011.

Why are they doing this? Well there are a few theories, but no real answers. That’s because the Chinese, as one analyst put it to me, are infamous for being pretty much the only government in power to stay silent during a crisis.”

From me

“But this time the culprit is very much Raspeberry Pi Foundation.  The Foundation again surprised markets by setting the price of the #PiZero at $5 – that’s the lowest Pi price since the A+ reduction to $20 in 2015.

Why are the doing this? Well there are a few theories, but no real answers. That’s because the Raspberry Pi Foundation, as one analyst put it to me, are infamous for being pretty much the only educationalists in power to stay silent during a crisis.”
