https://sg.finance.yahoo.com/news/trump-strips-us-fed-emergency-132252747.html

Trump is upping his petulant ante to force President-elect Joe to exonerate him from any criminal offence after leaving the President post.

As we can see, Trump is willing to cause more deaths and wreck the US economy just to achieve his personal agenda.

Why is Trump doing these?

Trump understands very well that the US is a dealmaking country and its judiciary system allows the prosecutor to negotiate and strike a deal with the defendant over a conviction.  Trump is a dealmaker and he will do whatever it takes to exonerate himself.

China is gradually moving away from USD.

 China has been reducing its US treasuries and diversifying its investments.

China is also raising its funds in euros instead of USD.

China is also buying more Japanese bonds nowadays.

As China is a big investor, the US will find it harder to raise debts and it will have to increase its interest rates to attract other buyers.  However, foreign buyers are also shrinking and the US FED has to pick up the tab.

The US will become like Japan whereby the government will own the majority of its own debts if this phenomenon continues unabated because this is the only way to keep interest rates low to boost economic growth.

It is still unsafe to travel overseas because of the new virus strain that is spreading around the globe.

The HK top infectious disease experts have urged the HK government to take urgent action and this means that the situation is very dire in HK.
