The king, in all his glory,has just jacked his 'GAME'.......the market is His mess and the masses
WILL suffer.......thanks to the king's continuing con game.

Or the Chinese are just waiting for Joe Biden to be elected in 2020. They know he will restore China's most favored nation trading status. So the nation that locks up millions of their Islamic minorities will no longer have sanctions or tariffs as they continue to hack and spy their way around the world.

Trump's ENORMOUS EGO is exacting the result that the CHINESE were expecting......and
it is not even SEPT. 30 the end of Q3......end of Q2 to the end of Q3 WAS MY PREDICTION.....
Can U SAY Cassandra WAS CORRECT?

Japan just agreed to buy billions of US agriculture products. And the flooding in the Midwest this year has hurt the harvest totals, record lows on some crops. China might soon be coming to us with a begging bowl. And the farmers who did get their crops in, should be able to sell at very high prices.

SORRY...the bolded is "in principle".......read the last portion of the link above......the king
does NOT have a good track record closing deals.......this is a first draft,if you will, and the king
believes strong arming OR head faking is the most effect...... NOW read the very LAST thought
at the bottom of the link.......the king is NOT ADROIT at attempting to compromise....SEPT
will NOT conclude or close the deal......jmo......wait and see if my foresight is accurate,

CHINA CALLED says the king.......here's what an expert economist expects from THAT tidbit
of trivia......

For decades the West has wanted into the Chinese consumer market so they were willing to overlook China's horrible human rights record and their unethical ways of doing business, spying, stealing tech, even putting spyware in the computers they sell us.
And with China having so many new billionaires and millionaires, it is only more tempting to let them get away with all this and more. I love the old quote that China thinks long term and the West only thinks of the next quarter. But as China gets more modern, I think they are thinking short term. Can they afford to close factories and put hundreds of millions out of work because their prices are no longer competitive due to US tariffs, and the stagnant European economy? This isn't the highly restricted China of Mao, right now there are problems with their Islamic minority and the continuing demonstrations in Hong Kong. Add a recession and possibly a depression and Xi might just decide to cry uncle. I know he doesn't want to lose face, but he also doesn't want to lose his job.

On the other hand, does Trump want the US to be in a recession before the 2020 reelection? It would make sense for both sides to back down, a new détente?
