China Prepares for Deep Freeze in Holiday Profits

Quote:
YI WU, China — In China they are sometimes called the "Christmas Wongs." Hong Nan Wong and his wife Jasmine run the factory that tools the tinsel for Christmas trees around the world. They produce thousands of miles of it, along with hand-decorated bobbles and bells.
They even make the Christmas trees that are exported to America's K-Marts, Wal-Marts and a dozen other retail chains.
But this year the Christmas forecast is looking a bit bleak. Orders for American retail stores are down 50 percent. The Wong's Christmas tree factory is churning at two-thirds instead of full speed.
