@Rory_Johnston They probably got promised by Trump that it would be a short war and they could live off their reserves and the war would be over before they went into shortage. China needs USA to keep shipping lanes open for it. Makes sense they would support American wars in short term
@Martyupnorth I would vote for you to lose your Canadian passport and any and all benefit including pensions, policing, military, trade, travel or anything else. if you REJECT the rest of Canada you shouldn't get any benefits from Canada. just remember you are rejecting us not the other way
@Rory_Johnston to me this feels like one last pressure tactic by Trump to get Iran to give over their nuclear material. It's both an ultimatum and an off ramp. depending on whether Iran agrees to give up their enriched uranium
@bigmeech1917@CRUDEOIL231 it's all about China. Iran can't function without Chinese imports. China hits operational stress starting early August. If Iran retaliates against GCC countries energy infrastructure in August, China is doomed, which would mean Iran is doomed. it's a catch 22 for Iran come August
@miket136@jkenney Members of my family fought and died to protect this nation and it's territory and you are proposing stealing it. You have no idea the level of "vindictiveness" I would support against you. If the government of Canada asked for volunteers to go and kill you traitors I would go
@BrianRoemmele Head tax on robots is my base case or it might be a per watt tax as well. The idea that AI/robots isn't going to be one of the most taxed sectors in the world ever is just silly. OF COURSE that's what's going to happen. It's obvious there's nothing you/anyone can do to stop it
@polan13@DeItaone@DsrPrivate if yields are over a certain level for shorter term notes that Treasury might as well sell them longer term at the same rate is what this is saying.
@wmiddelkoop It's true. the question now is does the USA have the Political Will to destroy the whole of the Middle East's energy infrastructure and thus cement the Western Hemisphere as the only energy rich place on the planet or will it fall to half measures and infighting.
@LukeGromen so in essence what you are saying is that "the bigger China's trade surplus the higher gold goes".
This would explain why the Iran war has been negative for gold prices despite everyone knowing governments will print to subsidize energy
@BrianRoemmele Also it doesn't help that every Big tech leader funds these very same protester's to go after their competitors Data centres. Follow the money and you will see where these "protester's" come from. It's 1930's newspaper wars for territory all over again.
