Yeah. That wasn’t great. It will hit Garden pretty hard. I don’t know how many local cattle are killed there. I’m sure some are.

That’s pretty bad news.

This has two important implications: 1/ It's clearly an escalation on their side in response to Trump's actions. If one had been hoping for a calming of tensions, this pushed in the opposite direction. 2/ In simple economics terms, China becomes more competitive and exports deflation globally.

Hope this marginally helps.

China's only hope in that scenario is Joe Biden and that's unlikely.

If China would just agree to quit stealing our IP things would probably go back to the way they were for the most part.

When China devalues their currency does our national debt load slow just a little? I know they own a decent portion of it.

No. Nothing changes with respect to the amount of our national debt.

You're correct that they own a large amount of Treasuries, and you're correct that what they do with their currency has implications for their holdings of Treasuries. But that doesn't directly affect our national debt at all. It's just a transfer from their holdings to those of other investors (or vice versa).

Earlier I mentioned that China is trying to control capital outflows and thus was buying their currency. When they do that, they're selling dollars. And typically they get the dollars to sell by selling Treasury securities.

By letting their currency depreciate (devalue), they actually need to sell fewer dollars and thus fewer Treasury securities.

(My profession by the way is trading interest rates and fixed income markets like Treasuries.)

Not really. It never hit the 200 day but it was sort of close.

It looks like someone has hacked into our system and hijacked all the NooBs accounts under 100 posts.

If you bought the call options that expire Friday instead of the stock, you would have made about 30x's your money.

Suckers skyrocketed in value.
