Terrible news!
With the current administration in Washington, China doesn’t seem so bad anymore. Still bad enough, though.
Markets hate uncertainty.
While China probably isn’t the investor a western democracy wants, it‘s much more reliable and steady than the current US administration.
🤬
Extraction of IP and technology through the guise of investment.
that’s wonderful. maybe Germany can become more independent because of this balance.
With all due respect… what exactly are we supposed to invest in? Germany used to be the leader in rocketry, nuclear physics, automobile manufacturing, weapon’s design, etc. But that was 80+ years ago.
What is there to even invest in now? Yeah German cars are nice, but Japan has taken that crown. USA and China are the leaders in rocketry and space travel, US dominates in weapons development, and Germany has pretty much completely stopped their nuclear research and dismantled like all their reactors. What IS there to invest in at this point?
This is something I could have never have said in my childhood, but China should bring some democracy to the US (and maybe take also their oil)
