Isn't it funny how money talks? The same Chinese they love to hate are now welcomed with open arms. I don't know much about crypto farms, but I don't expect them to be labor intensive once built. We know however that they're energy intensive... who else is suddenly interested in providing...

https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/national-security/project-el-salvador-shows-how-china-exerting-growing-power-america-n1278464 NATIONAL SECURITY A project in El Salvador shows how China is exerting growing power in America's backyard China is making its influence felt in Latin America and the...

I think that's Xi's biggest concern, but let's make no mistake, those who are looking to destabilize China's CCP aren't looking to replace the system with a western democracy. Its hierarchical culture precludes such system. Tiny Taiwan remained a dictatorship until recently and, judging from...

I've done well with BABA last year and still hold some shares, mostly because the floor fell from under me when Xi went on a power play. I'm hopeful to recover before year end, and the share price has recovered some in the last 2 weeks, but fundamentally, why invest in Chinese shares that so...

Agreed. There's no reason the USD should be the world's reserve currency, which allows it to print at will. The EUR has gained credibility over the last 2 decades, not so much as an alternative but as a complementary reserve. It is most likely that China will push for the RMB to join the 2...

Perhaps when you show the same outrage at the pay package of C levels at major corporations in America? As long as we justify anyone making more than, let's say $5M a year, we justify the free for all from everyone.

I would say 5-10% of Americans are anarchists, meaning they live off the grid, as far away from government oversight as they can, paying no taxes, self protecting, and interacting only with like minded people.

Talking from no experience in political finance and repeating what I've said in past posts, I think the future of currency is dematerialized (cc and apps exclusively), an abstract value (Bitcoin?) will be approved globally and, based on established parameters, countries will peg their currency...

GOOG (which I gave as an example) was at $262 10 years ago, it's at $2916 today. So what's your point?

Like I said... Buy and hold large caps for 10 years, you should beat that 100% return.

Is it just me or are most of these replies outside the question? To answer, you need to tell: Is the goal 1% per month or 10% per year or 100% over 10 years? Are you compounding? I ask because in 2020 it would have been relatively easy to reach 75% and have 9 years to earn 25%. Several long...

Again, you over simplify things, particularly when talking about China. There is an inherent love hate relationship between business and government in all countries. Ideally, business wants no competition, no government oversight, low paid labor but a huge market that can afford its products...

Context is important in our discussions only. I trade stocks exclusively and wouldn't know a thing about futures, options and whatever else is being trades out there. OP's question seems to be referring to stocks but that would be the first clarification needed. RSI, like many other...

I find it puzzling that our elites are shocked by Xi's actions. China is a communist state bordering on a dictatorship since Xi's take over of all relevant institutions. The actions of the state are completely in line with their vision of China’s future, a equalitarian nation under communist...

First I blame the insider traders, then I blame the government and when that doesn't make me feel better, I blame the Chinese.

Pills time!

And what challenges your thought process? Because your statement leads nowhere.

Lol, I just don't pretend they don't exist and you shouldn't either.

Lots of comments based on a very limited article. Amazon is clearly being singled out, first by the Trump administration and now by the Biden administration, for refusing to bow and let unions take over its businesses. Bezos is right to challenge Musk bulldozing his way to control satellite...

$40k... that's it? Cheap bastards
