Tensions remain high on the Russia/ Ukraine front. Is China next? Hyper-sonic missiles may change the narrative.

 

Market Talk

This post is an update on global tensions that mainstream media seems to be ignoring.  Why?  My guess is that China and left wing politicians, mostly democrats, own much of the media.

Watching Russia on the Ukraine border. If tensions escalate to an all out Ukraine invasion, China may be bolstered into invading Taiwan. Read the today's news....

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said Tuesday the talks in Geneva were “open, comprehensive and direct,” an assessment echoed by Washington. But Peskov said it was the result that ultimately matters.

“So far, let’s say we see no significant reason for optimism,” he said in a conference call with reporters.

Victoria Nuland, U.S. undersecretary of state for political affairs, told reporters Tuesday, “We haven’t seen the slightest hint of de-escalation” on Russia’s part. “It is Russia that created this crisis out of whole cloth” by deploying 100,000 troops just across from Ukraine’s eastern border.

Meanwhile, the US market is ignoring the rapid development in the PRC of a new class of terrifying missiles called hypersonic.  After looking into this it points to bad policy of generational outsourcing to the PRC.  This is not a bash on Chinese citizens, however their communist leaders have directed the military side to develop a  hyper sonic missile program, successfully tested, and are now building out a hundred silos that will give the ability to push a button and rain down on us death at imperceptible speeds over ten times that of sound.  If it doesn't happen, the threat of it will change the narrative.

This is serious stuff that could well lead to the end of humanity as we know it. But, the hypersonics are so fast and evasive that some crazy leader may get the notion that they have first strike advantage. China is reported to building new silos and nobody cares? 

 

Market Warning :  If the Russians invade Ukraine, watch out for China on Taiwan. 

Are growing tensions coming to a head?

Is a cold war with Russian and China on the verge of reality?

Many questions point to possible economic sanctions on Russia and possibly sanctions in dealings with both Russia and China.  A perceived first strike advantage may lead to arrogance of their military leaders.

Due to the serious nature of the above post I will refrain from mentioning specific stocks, like Apple, that have extensive dependence on the People's republic of  China with generational outsourcing practices. 

hey people -  wake up.
