Someone once told me that trade wars were easy to win.

Hong Kong is about to blow, and I think all hell may break lose. Like serious economic repercussions for China. I’m not one for overblowing news events, but this has the makings of something that may send the entire region and world economy into a real shipshow.

It may be advantageous to let a little pressure off for now.

I thought “keeping maximum pressure” on china to force them back to the table was the strategy, no?

Also, any idea when companies located in china are going to come back here to produce and create jobs instead of relocating to Vietnam and India?

It is surprising that “investors” are the strong arm of Chinese globalist policy. A $30B anything should have never caused the ruckus the bull shit sell off of Trillions caused. I hope everyone is real proud. I am not.
