I believe US was trying to trigger a military conflict with Taiwan over chip manufacturing.

They had the short term thinking that China would try plunder Taiwan for TSMC rather than develop their own capabilities.

As the video said, this is the opposite of China's mindset on economic development. China had all the ingredients to become self-sufficient on chip manufacturing and just needed a catalyst to start to cook. Trump became that catalyst and Biden continued to same policy.

You can test for mold using an air quality monitor that has a PM1.0. That means it detects particles <1 μm in size which is good for bacteria. Combine that with an air purifier suitable for the size of the cellar.

Windows to cellars should already have trickle vents otherwise it could get damp pretty quickly. Look carefully at the frame of the small window. If no trickle vent, look to install one.

We recently had Australian mainstream media talking about a slum in Australian iron ore sales to China and calling it sign of China's property crash.

I wonder now if iron ore is trading within BRICS in a similar way and Australia is getting the cold shoulder for being the US puppet it is.

If the judge has no control, how did he buy and sell the stocks? He (or his wife) was "advised" completely independent of the case he's on?

Pelosi's husband makes a lot of stock moves too.

I agree the stock market is a big influence of the economy. Stocks are massively overvalued. There's not enough available cash in existence if there's big sell off on a major stock like Intel. Hence the need to print money. If the Fed didn't intervene, that illusion of stocks actually having cash value would vaporise.

You're a federal judge ruling on a Boeing case?

None of those implications are bad UNLESS you are a manufacturer of those goods in the West. Or investing in those manufacturers. This is where WSJ falls flat on its ass.

The rest of the economy is a consumer of those cheaper goods. So the discounts on those goods makes the wallet go further. That's good for consumption. Consumers might even throw more money towards those dogshit services that economists are now in love with.

Meanwhile our media and leaders are predicting war with China in 2027...

So how the fuck are submarines planned to arrive decades later going to be relevant? Shrug
