Dollars will lose value - metal stockpiles can be made into demanded goods in the future. A much better investment for a manufacturing nation. ( America’s dropped out of the industrial manufacturing business, we’ll just trade derivatives).

China buys most of their metal scrap from the US, so it’s good in that way I suppose.

How will this supply eventually be absorbed back into the market?

Tanks, destroyers, aircraft, submarines.....

There is no good metal in China.
It’s all pop music.
