@gonglei89 He's not wrong about market economies without social democracy btw. There are more economies out there than China the US and Europe.

@gonglei89 What I can say is, the nature of our orange is dyed in the wool, and does not come from a tanning salon.

@gonglei89 @fredsoda Dude, it's so over

@gonglei89 He sells dreams, not missiles

@gonglei89 This guy really is a waste of time to deal with

@JRUrbaneNetwork Was in GZ last September and just missed this opening! Bummer because I stayed just two stops from Fangcun...

@gonglei89 Yes yes Greg Ip of China stuck in middle income trap forever fame

@Hongjia_Lin @gonglei89 But it's really nothing compared to the suburbs 10-15 miles away which are some of the wealthiest in NJ.

[Ron Vara, PhD @RonVaraPhD]

@Hongjia_Lin @gonglei89 By traditional US definitions not really! Even though the city itself has quite a few neighborhoods you'd think of as American suburbs, a few of them even kind of nice.

[Ron Vara, PhD @RonVaraPhD]

@gonglei89 @Hongjia_Lin Main difference is Newark's suburbs are WAY nicer than the city. I have my doubts this is true for Baoding. And the blind spot those looking for political points miss here. The poverty isn't sitting where they think

[Ron Vara, PhD @RonVaraPhD]

@gonglei89 The less Americans believe it, the more affordable it stays for us.

@GlennLuk @teortaxesTex @leixing77 @tphuang Sounds like discounts for ICE cars, tp has documented.

[Ron Vara, PhD @RonVaraPhD]

@tphuang I remember when Nautilus Minerals was around the ship they were going to use to mine undersea volcanic vents was being built in China. And the yard seized the asset when the company went belly up. Wonder how the domestic mineral extraction efforts on this front are going

@zephyr_z9 Not a FX trader but I wonder if this has more to do with CNH becoming a funding ccy than anything else.

@joequant @sifferkontot @teortaxesTex Gold sunk anyways, confiscated by state unless you left.

[Ron Vara, PhD @RonVaraPhD]

@joequant Brian Hioe denies he is Chinese but doesn't understand why his nation's economy is run in an even more Chinese way than China's.

[Ron Vara, PhD @RonVaraPhD]

@gonglei89 Welp...national market in services at least, trading securities and what not...
