  2. If China is willing to go to war to defend North Korea as a buffer state against America, what make America think China won't go to war to defend its own sovereignty over Taiwan?

  3. US: We have concern about your relationship with China Saudi: Frankly my dear, I don't give a damn

  4. Just because it is inconvenience to the G7, doesn't mean China should sacrifice its own interest for them. They accused China of overcapacity in EV industry, yet the world need tens of millions of EV to replace the ICE cars if we want to save the world from environmental disaster due to climate change, and China EV production is far from that number. It is the G7 who has overcapacity problem, producing ICE cars that is harmful to the environment.

  5. Airbus is not happy because it doesn't have enough capacity to fill in the orders. Boeing should have told Airbus earlier if Boeing want to drop out from the competition and focusing on money instead.

  7.  @4411825  because this war mongering anglo saxon is just a bully, and like all bullies, anglo saxon only dare to fight those weaker than them. Why do you think they didn't dare to attack Norkies or Iran? Why do you think they only dare to attack libya when libya gave up its nuke.

  8. inflation is low because China has not print money like drunkards in the fed.

  10. the only way for Europe to come out of their economic malaise today is to connect Europe and China through trade. The other option is conflict, which bring nothing but destruction and economic hardship.

  13. Transition is for someone with plan, there is a destination. Germany has none of those, so it is not a transition. Germany is in trouble, not transition
    25
  14. Nope, developing countries will still need to import Russian oil and gas. They don't have alternative, unless they want their people to revolt because of high gas price. They will continue to buy oil from Russia, through SWIFT or not.

  15. China should slap tariff on luxury and automotive from Europe and certainly from the US
    23
  16. Start put tariff on EU cars, liquors, food and luxury goods.
    22
  17. the world is much bigger than just the 5 mordor eyes countries. Africa, Asia, Latin America, all in need of new telecom gear and networks. Those countries won't buy overpriced and less advanced equipment from the US, unless US give them out for free. As for cyber security, the world is laughing at the US when it said China is a threat. Does snowden mean anything to you?

  18. the strategist look nervous, that is not a good sign

  20. India is at best where China was 20 years ago.
    17
  21. NATO need Turkey more than Turkey need NATO. Why do you think Turkey is in NATO but not EU even after applying to join it for decades? Without Turkey, NATO will lose a very strategic foothold in the region. Now the reason why Turkey is applying to join BRICS is because Turkey want to hedge its bet by joining organization that is focusing on dedollarization to diversify their economic interests. After the west seized Russian assets, it is even more urgent for countries that is not the west, to diversify from dollar.

  22. Jobs are actually not a problem in China, the problem is the jobs that are abundantly available is the jobs in service sectors like factory or restaurant. For educated young Chinese, those jobs are not desirable. For years, China has focused to increase the numbers of college graduate. But there is an oversupply of college graduate in China, and now the Chinese government is focusing on increasing the vocational trade schools to match the demand in the job market. All of this will take time to succeed, but the Chinese government is doing the right thing to correct their problems. For stimulating demand, one thing China can do is to raise minimum wages, it is better to do this rather than handing out checks like they did in the US.

  28. By this former director criteria of subsidy, China should put tariff on Airbus and Boeing

  31. Deflation is inevitable when the world economy slow down, and the US is raising interest rates to absorb the liquidity to deal with inflation, while China need to adjust the overcapacity of its industrial production. Once the issue of overcapacity is dealt with, and it will, whether the soft way or the hard way, price will bounce back, and only God know how high it will bounce. Made in China has kept the price of every thing low for the past 30-40 years, and that era is ending. The world will know the true price of their living standard when the Chinese stop producing cheap goods. The Chinese have plan for the future, they have focus on developing the new industrial revolution like renewable energy, nuclear energy, space exploration, EV, aviation industry and tech etc. Do the world have plan for the future? Vietnam is reaching the bottleneck, India infrastructure will need 20-30 years to even catch up with China. I suspect Mexico is also soon will reach the bottleneck just like Vietnam. On shoring in the US is a joke.

  33. Luxury good is almost certain will suffer from Chinese retaliation.
    11
  34. It is not cheap, it is affordable. For years, the main hindrance in EV is the expensive battery, China changed that and made it affordable for car buyers. Meanwhile legacy auto not only not interested in making affordable EVs, but they also consistently raise the price of their ICE cars and make less and less people who can afford cars. My family used to replace car every 5-7 years, but now we chose to keep our crappy cars for 10 years already, and even if we want to replace it, we may choose used car. I love how the Chinese affordable EVs are butchering the legacy autos.

  37.  Robert Tey  taiwan also knew that, that's why they only buy your second hand weaponz, LOL. Every one is just playing a farce, each of them are buying time. China is waiting until it is strong enough to take taiwan, taiwan is buying time as long as possible, while the yanks are buying time to act bossy as long as possible. The deadlock will be broken when PLA is strong enough to lay siege on taiwan and surrounding water.
    10
  38. I still fail to see why China need to launch stimulus when its economy still grew 5.2% last year. Just to make stock price rise? What China need to do is to reform its economy, and keep it steady, that including popping the property bubble.

  39. if trump and the yanks want to look like they win, the chinese will give it to them. But if trump think he can have a real win, he is dreaming.

  44. Countries won't stop buying energy from Russia because there is no alternative. Asia, Africa and Real America especially do not want to pay higher energy prices just so the West and Russia can play their geopolitical monopoly game. Their people will revolt if their countries have to raise gas prices during this economic slowdown. Since they still need to buy energy from Russia, they will find ways to circumspect this SWIFT sanction. Over time, SWIFT will lose its dominance in international payment system.

  45. japan wanted inflation for years, now that inflation come, it is not a good news since the inflation is coming from external factor like higher import prices.

  47. This property problem is overblown. True, it is constitute 30% of Chinese GDP. True, it's bubble is popped. But that doesn't mean the end of property business in China. It doesn't mean that China suddenly lose 30% of its GDP. There will always be a demand for property, not just in China, but every where except in Gaza. Property market will be back in China. Will it be 30% of GDP? Probably not, but it will still be a significant number. After all, people do need home.
    7
  48. Chinese GDP is still growing, they also don't have hyper inflation problem, what is bad?

  55.  @ikkong8436  I bet if China attack, most of DPP politicians will escape to Japan or US. The military on the other hand, some will probably fight hard, while significant proportion will probably surrender or defect.

  56. China still grow 4-5% while having low inflation, sound like a great situation for the Chinese, isn't that is what the developed economy have for years?

  57. Factionalism isn't new, nor is it a news. Every political party has factions, every society has factions, every organization has factions, even the dictatorship has factions.

  58. Asia, Africa, Latin America who need Russian oil will find alternative to SWIFT. Over time, SWIFT dominance and dollar dominance will end.

  59. for a country that has nothing to do with it, the US awfully involved a lot, I would say it is the main culprit beside Russia, even more so than the European countries.

  60. What is the meaningful way in addressing the property crisis according to you? Bailing them with tax payer money like the US did in 2008? I don't think so. China is doing what smart nation do in a crisis, not wasting a crisis. This property crisis is a good moment to teach people not to gamble in property speculation. Something the governments around the world, including China, have failed to do for years. Just like Xi said, house is for living, not speculation. You can hate the guy, but what he said is true. Property speculation for decades have only caused property bubbles, and made housing beyond affordability of common people. Speculation also caused bubbles that in turned turn into massive loss as we saw in US 2008 mortgage meltdown. As for investing in China, I see no reason not to do that. You just need to pick you cherry. Some companies are still profitable, yet their stocks are falling down. Meaning, it is a once in a lifetime chance to pick steep discounted stocks. For example, Alibaba, it is ridiculous how cheap its stock is currently, even though it is still making money. The fundamental is sound. The only headwind is the possibility of US-China war. But if it happen, stock market crashing is probably the last thing you worry about.
    5
  61. Countries are balancing their relationship with China and the US. Most countries pursue economic relationship with China while pursuing security relationship with the US. This actually creating an unbalance relationship. What countries like Indonesia should pursue is to increase economic relationship with the US while increasing security relationship with China to balance the unbalance relationship that has been going on for a long time now.

  65. EU really need to learn from what the former Singaporean diplomat, Kishore Mahbubani said. He said EU and US interest have began to diverge. This war is one of the signs. The US is the one who insisted NATO to expand eastward. EU is very reluctant. Now this happen, and EU will be the one to bear the majority of the costs, from higher energy prices to millions of refugees. The US on the other hand will become richer from selling gas and oil to EU with much higher prices.

  66. eurozone is so screwed, now we will see if the US is a real all weather ally to Europe or not.

  67. the best medicine is always bitter, reform can't happen without pain, it is time for Americans to realize that, kicking the can will not always work in the long term

  68. the world is not consisted only of the west, there are the rest of the world too, and the rest of the world could only give a frack to the concern of the west.
    4
  69. On the contrary, if China shifted the economic model from export oriented to consumption, then China will import more from global market. That will make global economy to have another alternative to the US market. Of course it won't be good for the US. For one thing, the US is going to lose its most important supplier of cheap goods, and it won't be easy to find new cheap suppliers in the next 5 years, which mean higher inflation will become a normal thing in the US. With China emerge as a consumption based economy, it will also become a competitor to the US in importing stuffs, which again will contribute to the higher inflation in the US. All this happen when the US is killing its economy to bring down the inflation.

  72.  @fungames24  what?? Mao isn't god. Sure, he was the master of guerilla tactics, but even he wouldn't bring spears to a gun battle. But yeah, Qing dynasty last days were full of incompetent people, that I can agree with you.

  77. Why would China launch stimulus when the rest of the world turn inward and abandoning free trade? China also want to transition its economy, launching stimulus for old economy model is contradictory to the goal. More importantly, Chinese people have saving, they just don't want to spend it, which is understandable because they just came out of lockdown for three years where they have hardly any income. Launching stimulus won't make them spend money at this time, they are replenishing their saving.

  78. basically when the US tell you to do something, you do it or else...

  79.  @ssuwandi3240  You think China wanted conflict? For decades China is making cheap stuffs to export to the west, and grew out of poverty from it. But China reached a certain point where it is not enough anymore to just relying on being OEM and exporting cheap goods. This is what they called middle income trap. To break out from this trap, China need to have its own corporate champions and China did succeed in creating giant corporations like Huawei, Alibaba, Tencent, DJI, Hisense, TCL, BYD, Nio, and many more. How did the west respond? Well, the US launched a trade war and a so called decoupling that downgraded to derisking. Should China just close shops and back to being OEMs, and forever deemed its citizens to be slaves? Hell no. Oh and your reasoning that Japan came out of its lost decades because of tourism is hilarious and wrong. For one thing, I'm not even sure Japan is out of the wood yet. Secondly, big economic countries like China and Japan can't just rely on one sector, just like it won't go down just because one sector is in trouble. That's why this so called China is doom because of property crisis theory is also incorrect as we can see from the GDP growth that is still can be considered healthy in many countries.

  82. China has deflation problem, tariff won't hurt China much since it will just push the price a bit for the Chinese consumers. Europe has inflation problem, tariff will add to inflation, and that will hurt European customers. So I don't think China will back down in the face of tariff war if that is what the foolish Europeans want.

  89.  @fredfrond6148  Few years ago, there was news about how Merkel herself called Chinese president to ask him not to postpone the ban of fossil fueled cars so soon, because it will have effect on German cars. The Chinese themselves have given up on trying to dominate the fossil fueled car industry, when they picked an EV expert who used to work in German as their tech minister. The guy changed the focus of the Chinese gov support from the fossil fueled car to the EV. He is retired now from the ministry, but now we see the fruitful harvest of his policy.

  90. As investor of Alibaba, I would like to see Alibaba innovate more, instead of engaging in propping stock price with buy back. That being said, buy back is good for the company who can buy back shares with cheaper price.

  93.  @ssuwandi3240  what on earth are you talking about? what does anything I said have anything to do with visa or huawei play by host country rules? are you talking about western countries banning Huawei? if yes, sure, Huawei can't do anything, did you see Huawei do anything to break their laws in their countries? but if China retaliate by banning their companies in China, well, don't cry, play by the rules set up by China, no?

  104. It is money in digital form instead of paper, backed by Chinese central bank and state. Comparing it with bitcoin is like comparing banks and casino. To make it simple, one digital yuan is always equal to one paper yuan. The benefit of it is that it is more efficient than paper money, and people might not need banks' services anymore, you can literally keep all your wealth in one smartphone, or card, or your pc, etc; and you can transfer your digital yuan to others bypassing the banking system too, which mean bye bye SWIFT and US dominance in world banking system. The real threat is to the banking system. The only way for banks to attract saver is by offering them interest. But there will be a lot of consolidation in Chinese banks, you might not need that many banks anymore. In fact, if the Chinese central bank want, it can now directly serve the Chinese consumers with little cost.
    2
  105. Only China allow its rivals to acquire its tech companies without even passing any inquiry. Imagine if Chinese banks want to acquire google or amazon, I bet the US gov will throw tantrum. Yet, American and Japanese companies own Alibaba, Tencent, etc stocks. Who is the one that closed the market?

  110.  John Clemens P. Rubi  Digital currency is the same as stock market? What are you talking about? Digital yuan is replacing paper yuan as a form of payment, not as a form of investment, unless you want to invest in forex. Beijing has no clue what accounting is? Funny you said that considering it was the US who repeatedly caused the global financial meltdown over and over. Local gov won't agree? Again, what are you talking about. Who want a one on one digital value for your money? um, people who use money to buy stuffs? I think you mistaking digital yuan with bitcoin. Digital yuan's role will be digital currency, a digital payment system. Not as a store of value.

  116. this curbs is a good thing for China in the long term. This will force Chinese chips industry to be more self reliant. The US embargoed Chinese arm industry and space industry, and today China is pretty much self reliant in arms industry and space industry. The same thing will happen in chips. For years, the Chinese gov failed to persuade the private sectors to invest in domestic chips R&D because it is cheaper to buy from foreign chip makers, now they don't even need persuasion anymore😂

  126. On one hand, they accused China of overcapacity, on the other hand they keep pushing China to stimulate the economy. The west is too shy to ask China to help them with their stubborn inflation. They want China to export their deflation to the west, but China has enough of it, no more producing cheap junks for you, from now on only high margin stuffs like EVs, Solar panels, Wind Turbine, Highspeed train, etc.

  127. housing is not the only reason why Chinese saved. Like other countries, China suffered from 3 years of lockdown, where incomes diminished for many. Unlike in the US, where the government printed money to give handout to Americans, Chinese government largely subdued. So most people dipped into their savings to survive. Now with lockdown is finally lifted, they are back in saving mode. This lethargic growth will be going on for few years at least, until the Chinese are confident enough to spend again.

  128.  @ragingmonk6080  Not every country can afford to buy oil from the US. Rubble falling down will only make the Russian oil much cheaper. In this era of high inflation, raising fuel price is the last thing we need.

  129.  @ragingmonk6080  Maybe EU can, maybe, we still don't know yet, but developing countries won't be able to pay higher prices to import from America without breaking their piggy banks. China and India, two of the biggest of them will certainly still need Russian energy.

  130. again, why China need a bazooka when the economy is still growing 4-5% a year? that is about 900 billion growth, equal to about a third of Indian economy. Stock market isn't an economy, the price of stocks don't reflect the economy, it doesn't even reflected the Chinese companies. Just look at Alibaba stock price, so low considering the company is still massively profitable. There if FUD going on, and smart person will hoard that stocks, just like what Michael Burry did. As for something structural going on in China, yes, but not the problem, but the reform. China is moving up the ladder in supply chain, restructuring the economy from manufacturing to services, none of the reform without pain, but long term, it will result in gain.
    1
  131. because EU don't tariff its made in China goods.
    1
  132. 4.4% growth is a respectable and good number, why China need to stimulate the economy when the rest of the world is heading into recession? That will only result in overcapacity. What westerners want is for China to fall into the overcapacity trap so the prices will fall down and inflation in the west can be tamed at the expense of the Chinese. Nice try IMF and now go frack yourself.

  133. At this point, China probably don't really care who win anymore in the US election. China is fortifying itself, whether it is militarily or economically.

  146. that's pretty much described all the so called developed nations' leadership. They lack the capability and the courage to do the right thing no matter how painful it is. Just look at the US, at their ballooning debts. It is not that they don't know what they should do, but they just lack courage to do that, and certainly they know they will be crucified if they try to do the right thing because that right thing will cause extreme pain.

  148. Chinese people buying local brands have nothing to do with being nationalistic, it is because local brands have improved their quality by leaps and bounds, while the foreign brands have involved in quality scandals recently. Simplifying the buying of local brands as nationalistic showed how arrogant and deep misunderstanding of China by the western propaganda media.

  150. I find it ironic, that the US has invested in China for the past 50 years, hoping that China would one day become the fat market they can harvest. Now when China has finally become a juggernaut, the US is retreating from Chinese market because it couldn't compete with Chinese companies. Meanwhile the US companies are only staying in countries where they can continue to suck dry those countries until bones were left.

  153. on what planet do we need to stimulate an economy that grow 4-5% a year? especially for one of the largest economies in the world. Do the western economists and media turn stupid? China is not going to launch stimulus just so the stock price can rise and benefit foreign investors. If the stock price remain low despite the good revenue performance, then it is good time to buy back.

  154.  @MollyGermek  yeah, not only that, I heard only industrial input that face deflationary pressure, while the consumer price is actually rising, this actually a good news for businesses. Their cost is declining, while they can sell their products with higher prices.

  157. Chinese people have 12 trillions in saving, giving hand out to them to spend is idiotic. What they need is the confidence to spend, not more money. They just came out of 3 years lock down, they are accumulating savings again, and they are waiting for the bottom of property crash. Once things are stabilizing, they will spend.

  165. first he wanted Chinese gov to do more, then he said he wanted Chinese gov to let private sector more free room. I guess western trained economist wanted gov to bail them out when times are tough, and stay away when time are good. Some capitalists they are.

  166. Chinese government has no interest in boosting the housing market because the government has no interest to return to property bubble. It only aim to stabilize the housing market. Hence the meal piece actions.

  167.  @jctai100  Have you seen Chinese factory workers working? I have never seen any worker who can learn faster and more productive than the Chinese, maybe Japanese, Koreans and Vietnamese workers can be called equal to them. The only lacking thing is the creativity, but that is not their faults. The problem is that many jobs available to them don't require or even banning them to be creative. They are expected to be doing what their superiors order them to do.

  168.  @johnmonk3381  even with growth rate being halved, China still has the growth rate the G7 will kill for, LOL. What matter isn't high growth, but quality growth. Real estate problem is something that bound to happen when you pop the bubble, and it is better to pop it now than later, and it will take years to solve it, anyone who tell you otherwise is lying or dumb. I couldn't give a crap about corrupt billionaires fate. Lying flat is how the youth protesting overwork. If they can do that, that means they still have strength to leverage. Employers will just have to negotiate better deal if they need workers.

  171. 80% of the world chips need of chips are on the low and medium end segment, those chips are inside your electronics, your cars, etc. China may not be able to catch up yet on the high end segment, but if China can capture the low and medium end segment, that will fund China research on the high end chips, while at the same time take away the resources that the western chip makers need to keep researching. Is it too late for China to catch up? There is no such thing as too late in catching up in the tech competition. If you don't start, then you will never be able to catch up.

  179. @Bubba-q2b only in total, but if you look at per capita basis, you will see the americans are the greatest polluters in the world. Not to mention, most of them are from factories, producing goods for the west, especially the US. But more importantly, China pollution is peaking, with great investment in EV and renewable energy, China is taking action, unlike the americans who kept electing climate change deniers for president. This coal power plant in China is just a transition tool while they are building the renewable capacity
