    Really? Let’s see China suddenly ship the next 6 months of produced stuff somewhere else and sell it (because they’ve been making it to allow for shipping time). They’re producing 2025 Xmas stuff now.

    Who’s got 500 billion of extra purchasing power right now? (The 200 billion deficit plus current US purchasing)?

    Remember, China has hundreds of massive container ships just waiting to dock. Are they going to spend millions on fuel to now send those ships elsewhere?

    Ya all crack me up that you actually believe China has any leverage in this conflict. We haven’t even touched on Xi having no ability to back down.
