| #12 Many wheeler-dealers are in thrall to the "money on the table" rule, which justifies any deal by saying "if I don't make that deal, someone will." This obviously is both true and a rationalization for making skeevy deals with skeevy parties. The people dealing with China know damn well what they are lining up with. Right, Disney? Right NBA? |

| #11 Terrible news for anyone in Australia who was stupid or greedy enough to get into bed with China. Like Sun Tzu said, "Don't trust China. China is asshole." |

| #9 Wouldn't a property giant have property as collateral? Evergrande should sell property before they default. They aren't doing that because they hope to have it both ways. If they don't pay the Bank of Australia should claim and sell the property. |

| #6 China is awash in trillions in bad loans. They have been papering it over with foreign currency and investors. But it can't go on forever especially with economies still shaky with the Coof running through them and the shutdowns. What can't go on forever won't and it looks like the end game is coming. While China will be hurt, especially with the food shortage from the floods and factory shutdowns, the investor nations will be hurt the most as their economies tank into depression. They rely too much on raw and manufactured goods from China and the marketplaces, along with bond markets will be ruined. It will be very, very interesting times. |

| #4 Default on our debt, and our mortgage rates will go back to the levels seen in the Carter Administration. Our elites joined us at the hip to China. We're screwed, by (their) design |

| #2 #1 Now let's default on our chi com depts.Posted by: Woodrow 2021-11-10 01:27 ....Would that it could be so. If we defaulted on our debt to China, the shockwaves would send the entire planet into recession - or worse. And then we'd have to face the reality that without our debt to keep the Chinese even remotely honest, they would feel that they had nothing to lose. Mike |
