i dont think thats possible everyone wants to do business with the number one economy in the world.
china's history has been the opposite that being to devalue their currency so the tariffs do not make their products anymore expensive. to me that shows they desperately need us.

i cant comment on the bitcoin question its possible that its a fourth prong but to be honest bitcoin has me totally baffled. my investment in bitcoin is like the guy clearing a mine field with his fingers in his ear hoping for the best.
What I'm wondering is if China is seeing that manufacturing is going back to the States to avoid tariffs would they do anything in retaliation?

Bitcoin has me baffled too. Only know Trump is big on it so it may become a viable alternative to gold and silver.

As of February 2025, China holds approximately $759 billion in U.S. debt, representing about 8.9% of the total U.S. debt held by foreign countries, making it the second-largest foreign holder after Japan.

Tariffs wont pay enough to completely fund current spending levels by themselves which is why its a three pronged approach. tarrifs , increased investment in the us as we're seeing with close to 5 trillion dollars of new investment in this country and third part the DOGE audit leading to a trillion in spending cuts. if he continues to be successful on all three as he is now this country will rock in the future.

401 K's have some investment flexibilities built into them. there are times you should move the money around in them and go more conservative.

Again as I've said before we're transitioning from an economy propped up by government spending to a private sector economy.
that government spending was not sustainable. someone had to make the change.
the good news is trump is hitting it from every angle and you'll also soon see him put pressure on the fed to reduce those interest rates.
Powell talking on Friday I hear. 🤔
