North Korea is still as defiant as ever.

https://sg.news.yahoo.com/north-korea-fires-missile-sea-japan-001038144.html

China-USA summit will take place on April 6-7 2017 and this summit will mostly be discussing how to handle North Korea.  China & USA will decide the fate of NK and whether there'll be a war against NK.  A war against NK will affect South Korea the most, followed by Japan & China.

NK's mobile rocket launchers (more than 10,000) can hit Seoul which has about 25m citizens and NK will use its long-range missiles to attack USA military bases in Japan.  China will have to deal with millions of war refugees at its borders and may have to take control of NK for the time being before the installation of new NK government.  The repercussions are huge and far reaching when a war happens.

East China Sea tension.

USA planted this seed of conflict after WW2 knowing that Diaoyu islands belonged to China but gave the administrative right to Japan.  However, the sovereignty was not given to Japan.  Oxford's library archives show that Diaoyu islands belong to China.  China also has its own documentations to proof that it is the real owner of Diaoyu islands.

There'll be no peace with USA presence in the region.

Will WTO give China market economy status?

https://sg.finance.yahoo.com/news/wto-creates-panel-decide-china-172608645.html

Will WTO give China market economy status after Trump's insistence to ignore WTO ruling?  What will happen if WTO also loses China's support when China is not given the market economy status it deserves?  Where will WTO stand if it doesn't honour its words?

Will WTO be relegated to a secondary organisation in the future?  This is a possibility as China & USA begin to foster better relationship in April 2017.

USA and China are fostering better relationship.

USA and China are fostering better relationship without involving middleman like SG.  When the 2 titans can talk to each other directly, SG has no strategic role to play anymore except to be used as a pawn for whipping when these 2 titans squabble.

FED is expected to reduce its massive treasuries holdings in 2017 - Part 2

http://finance.yahoo.com/news/fed-signals-could-promptly-start-shedding-bonds-portfolio-163001902--sector.html

Interest rates will continue to rise in 2017 & 2018 because of inflation and also dumping of US treasuries.  Companies which leverage on debts for growth will be badly affected by rising interest rates.  One such company is Amazon.

Germany VS USA in world trade.

https://sg.finance.yahoo.com/news/germany-urges-eu-file-wto-081445679.html

It is useless for Germany to file a complaint against USA in WTO because Trump had said it would ignore WTO ruling.  There is pretty much nothing to be done.  If Germany antagonizes USA too much, USA will demand more money from NATO or even pull out of NATO.

Germany can only sit in a corner to suck its own thumb.

Wilmar has lost its prerogative to sell sugar processed by its mills

http://www.reuters.com/article/us-australia-sugar-politics-idUSKBN17105H

Wilmar can no longer force farmers to let it sells sugar after processing the sugar in its mills.  This is a business setback for Wilmar because farmers can sell the sugar themselves.  Wilmar will definitely lose some businesses after processing the sugar.
