In politics people move quickly See Musk quietly failed and left the WH Nobody will remember his political adventure in a few months Same can happen with a China deal Just remove taxes, exemption after exemption and people will happily move to the next thing No one cares

I was pro tariffs. Until about 30 of our clients at Somewhere dot com cancelled searches over the past three weeks. Hiring freezes all over the place. Hit me in the pocket book already. REMOVE TARIFFS.

@CameronWalkerSZ Don't act surprised, China won't stop. If someone is expecting this it means they don't know how china operates.

Anecdotally we are seeing more new tourists these days in Shanghai Not only Europeans but also wealthy Middle Eastern I have no data but i think the Visa free policy is working and maybe people traveling less to US switching to China People are more curious to see China

It looks like we are in a showdown between 🇺🇸 USA and 🇨🇳 China. I don't take a position on what country will win, but in this video I breakdown the advantages of each side.
molson 🧠⚙️@Molson_Hart

I gave a talk at the Network State conference in Singapore. Part 1 breaks down the US vs. China battle for military and economic global dominance, discussing: 1. 🇺🇸 US Strengths: military history, brand, immigration, Elon, and aircraft carriers (?) 2.🤦‍♂️ Cracks in the US armor: aging domestic infrastructure, afghanistan exit, Boeing, the Houthis 3. 🇯🇵 Isn't China just Japan 2.0, an empty threat? 4. 🇨🇳 Chinese Strengths: patriotism, 吃苦 (eat bitter), propaganda, population 5.💡 Is Chinese innovation real? 6. 🏭 Chinese supply chains, industrial capacity, and demographics (powerful 🤯 data, thanks to @hsu_steve for the STEM graduate data) By the end of this first section you'll have an opinion about whether we'll be living in a US dominant or China dominant world in 10 years. Part 2 discusses how the West (and the Network State!) can build hardware startups in a world where China dominates global manufacturing. 1. 🧧 You've got to go to China 2. 🔐 Doing what China legally cannot 3. 🚀 Western 0 to 1 innovation vs. Chinese 1 to N innovation 4. 🚜 Leveraging your country's natural strengths 5. 👨‍⚖️ Patents; using the global legal system as China struggles to learn it 6. 🌎 Global ex-China hardware talent 7. 💰 What these strategies have in common and why you should consider hardware (Apple, Nvidia) startups, not just software Whether or it's starting a company or predicting where this crazy world is headed, you'll learn a lot from this talk. Thank you to the @thenetworkstate and @balajis (one of the world's greatest living thinkers and a must-follow) for giving me the opportunity to speak.

EEUU puso los aranceles a China en 145% y ésta responde con 125%, agregando: "ya que esto saca de mercado a los productos importados de EEUU, a partir de aquí dejaremos de responder, e ignoraremos subsecuentes aumentos."

Simple thought: if US unemployment is only 4.2% why you want to bring back low value manufacturing ??? Just focus on what you are doing already well tech, high value added productions, cut some costs, put the house in order and that’s it

El vicepresidente de Estados Unidos responde: “Pobre y triste México. Los cárteles internacionales de la droga operan libremente dentro de sus fronteras y México no puede hacer nada al respecto. Es un pensamiento "infantil y mágico" esperar que nuestro vecino del sur tenga fuerzas del orden que apenas funcionan”.
JD Vance@JDVance

Poor, sad Mexico. International drug cartels operate freely within their borders and Mexico can’t do anything about it. It is “childish, magical” thinking to expect our southern neighbor to have barely functioning law enforcement.

@Molson_Hart I like your attitude and agree with your comments, pragmatism should apply in business decisions.

brief thoughts on the tariff situation: 1. businesses need certainty. without certainty they will not make investments. for example, i said that we would buy some machines to do some manufacturing in the usa. after analyzing all the costs, we couldn't make the numbers work so we gave up. however, i said that if we got tariffs i'd look at it again, but currently we have tariffs but there is no clarity on what products there are tariffs (or for how long), so we cannot invest. 2. there needs to be a long-term slow-moving plan for industrial policy. if you say "X% tariffs in 2 days" you will kill a lot of businesses if that X is large. now, you might say "well fuck those businesses they shouldn't be importing from that country anyways". if you have that thought, you probably have no idea what you're talking about, but let's say you're right. regardless of the morality of those businesses being destroyed, you will get a major economic recession which, with contagion, can get really bad. a better way to do tariffs might be "we will have 10% tariffs in 2029, 2.5% in 6 months, 5% in 18 months, 7.5% in 30 months etc." This allows businesses time to adjust 3. what is the goal? we need a goal. is the goal to stop fentanyl? I like it, but...maybe we could, I dunno, just raid the open-air drug markets instead of taxing Canadian lumber? Is the goal to reindustrialize America? Then why these 3 countries alone? I don't get it. Is the goal to negotiate for something? What? Tell us the goal and how it benefits us please. I'm not condemning tariffs. I'm not even complaining. I don't care. My business is set up to adapt to this and we will be fine (others will not). And I'm willing to give any new administration the benefit of the doubt, but, whatever it is trying to do, it'd be great if we got: 1. Certainty 2. Time to react 3. A plan 4. A stated goal Instead of chaotic constant new announcements. I am in this industry and have been for many years and I cannot figure out what is going on and have not been able to figure it out for multiple days now, and that is not a good sign and something that should be corrected immediately. PS for those wishing to follow along what is happening my go to follows have been @typesfast and @aaronrubin

@cosgaya_emilio Tan sencillo que hubiera sido seguir enfrentando al narcotrafico en vez de claudicar y atender "las causas". No ganabas pero el esfuerzo se apreciaría más. 🙄
