If not for COVID I also wun research on china then find out CCP is actually a secret villain in our world .

Suzhou they got all our money and designs . Then their Gahmen create another similar heavily subsided project across Suzhou and compete with us lol .

Kena poke in backside hard hard .

LKY wanna run but difficult to pull out shares and assets as CCP dun allow . Resulting in slow gradual loss of millions .

Alot of ppl dunno still think CCP is a friendly towards Singapore. Darn ignorant ppl or heavily brainwashed by CCP propaganda.

Imo Our actual real friend is Israel only .
And we buy alot of stuff from them (.il) too. Both materiel and intel tools (if that's what it's called)

I dunno why people focus so much on China holding 800B of US debt. Percentage wise is only 10% at most.

If China really ditch 800B the yield goes up but the price goes down. So they kill themselves in the process and will be lucky to get back 500B eventually.
So what if 600B bond is due in June? China isn't the only country holding them when it is due. Of course if demand is lacking yield has to go up but when it goes high enough buyers will bite. You think Japan UK and the rest of the European nations will conspire to screw US? Remember Russia in their backyard? Remember how Trump is pushing to withdraw military from Europe Japan Korea etc?

I will be surprised if they are not already negotiating which country to take up China's share as and when the bonds fall due... US can outright stop selling to China even if they want to buy.

China will be caught with having to float the yuan coupled with a cheap US dollar at the same time.... There are so many more scenarios that China will be in deep **** but hey what do I know..... I'm just a kaypoh bored armchair uncle . 🤣
If China dumps all US treasuries at one all, can the bond markets stomach it?

According to some analysts, it will push yield to 5-6% which will kill the US government.

cpi is lagging, inflat expectation will be high for next quarter with the china tariffs so fed likely stay put. but market after 1 or 2 quarters will adjust n realise the tariffs on china not much impact. consumers can simply change spending behavior if costs become higher. buy less postpone purchases

price of oil has fallen quite a lot. this has greater impact on daily inflation as oil is used for food production, transportation, mining, electricity.

The equity and the treasury markets work differently.

A movement of $5T in the equity markets is different from a $800B dump in US treasuries.
